The powder mixture in which Fe-Ni alloy particles of 20 nm were homogeneously dispersed on $Al_2O_3$ particle surfaces was prepared by hydrogen reduction of $Al_2O_3$ and metal oxide powders. $Al_2O_3$/Fe-Ni nanocomposites fabricated by pressureless sintering were only composed of $Al_2O_3$ and ${gamma}$-Fe-Ni phases and achieved over 98% of the theoretical density at the sintering temperature above $1350^{\circ}C$. The highest strength and toughness of the composites were 574 MPa and 3.9 MP$a{\cdot}m1/2$, respectively. These values were about 20% higher than these of monolithic $Al_2O_3$ sintered at the same conditions. Nanocomposites showed ferromagnetic properties and coercive force was increased with decrease of the average particle size of dispersions.

Magnetic properties of sintered Fe-79Ni-4Mo cores made of centrifugal atomized powders were investigated. $H_{c}$ and $\mu_{a}$ of the cores sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours measured at 60 Hz at a magnetic field of 10 Oe showed the best properties. Particularly the properties of $H_{c}$ and $\mu_{a}$ measured at low field (< 0.2 Oe) were found to increase with increasing the particle size of the core samples. It resulted from the domain wall motion depending on the grain size of sintered bodies. The best D, C magnetic properties of $H_{c}$ and $\mu_{max}$ were 0.085 Oe and 40000, respectively. A, C properties of the same cores showed the $\mu_{a}$ of 11000. The magnetic properties of sintered cores always exhibited an enhanced AC/DC performance by using the powders mixed with two different particle sizes. Those properties of cores are expected to apply for current transformer.

A simple two stage aerosol filter sampler which allows simultaneous and fractional collection of two different-size particles, coarse and fine, was constructed and applied to the collection of Seoul atmospheric particulate for inorganic analysis. The sampler consist of two 47-mm diameter filter holder, a pneumatic pump, and a flowmeter. Filtering rate normally runs around 20$\ell$/min for 8 hrs. Using the sampler, a series of seasonal aerosol samples were collected from June 1986 to March 1988 at Yonsei University campus, Seoul and subsequently analysed for ten environmentally important metals using an atomic absorption spectrometer and an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer. The analysed metals are Al, Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, V, and Zn. The analytical results showed the following order of metal abundance; Al > Fe > Zn > Pb > Mn > Cu > V > Ni > Cr > Cd. Based upon their size distribution pattern, the analyzed matals could be clasified into two groups, those present primarily in coarse particle and those in fine particle. Fe, Al, Mn, V, and Cr belong to the former group while the rest to the latter. Most metal concentration were highest in spring or winter, and lowest in autumn. Statistical analysis showed strong correlations between Al and Fe, Pb and Zn, and Cu and Mn.

Onggi, described as a 'breathing' type of pottery' has significantly influenced the traditional food culture of Korea. It is known that Onggi is an optimal type of storage for fermented foods such as soy sauce, salted seafood, and Kimchi, as air or liquid can penetrate through the body of this material. These foods gain flavor due to the breeding of aerobic bacteria at the beginning of the fermentation process. In this study, Onggi materials from five regions, Gangjin, Yeoju, Ulsan, Yesan, and Jeju, were collected and analyzed to determine their chemical and physical properties before and after sintering. The differences in the raw materials of other mining regions are examined in terms of their chemical and mineralogical compositions, specific surface area, particle size, and particle distribution. Among them, the Gangjin raw material has the greatest mean particle size of $92.29{\mu}m$, as well as the widest particle size distribution. Differences in the levels of $SiO_2$ and $Fe_2O_3$ are shown among Onggi raw materials. However, the crystalline phases formed after sintering are identical, except for the Jeju samples. At all sintering temperatures tested here, Gangjin Onggi showed the greatest porosity, leading to complete air permeation through the body within 90 minutes. These results taken together indicate that air permeation is strongly related to the pore structures in the Onggi body. This is assumed to affect the fermentation behavior.

Treatment for water repellency on the carbon supports of GDL which composed a part of MEA has been suggested as a solution to prevent flooding. PTFE is a fluoropolymer that has hydrophobic property and a PTFE emulsion was selected as waterproof agent in this investigation. Carbon paper was coated by PTFE emulsion with different particle size of 5~500 nm and 3~$5\;{\mu}m$ as various concentration. PTFE coated carbon paper has difference in weight variation changed proportionally at PTFE concentration and coating times. Then gas permeability of the coated carbon paper with emulsion of 3~$5\;{\mu}m$ PTFE was changed vastly. Characteristics of carbon paper coated with different PTFE emulsion were analyzed by FE-SEM, FT-IR spcetroscopy and were evaluated by weight variations, gas permeability and water contact angle.

Ink-jet printing techniques with ceramic ink, which contains ceramic pigments as colorant, are in increasingly use in the ceramic industry. Generally, ceramic pigments that are produced by conventional method show diameters of several micrometers; these micrometer sized particles in the ink-jet printing process can cause undesirable behavior such as print head nozzle clogging. To prevent this problem, a particle size reduction process is required. In this study, CMYK (cyan, magenta, yellow, black) pigments were synthesized via solid state method. Each pigment particle was milled to submicron size by an attrition mill. The effects of micronizing on the morphology, mechanical property, crystal structure and color property of the CMYK ceramic pigments were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), particle size analysis (PSA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and CIE $L^{\ast}a^{\ast}b^{\ast}$.

The purpose of this study is to improve the efficiency of anti-pollution film for PV module. The anti-pollution coating process was performed on a glass substrate, which is the same material as the glass substrate for the PV module. We coated the anti-pollution film on the glass substrate by spray coating. After coating process, annealing process was performed during 1 hour at $200^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$, and $400^{\circ}C$. And then we analyzed the surface characteristics according to the annealing temperature of the film. Annealing process can also improve the durability of the coated film. And then we analyzed the anti-pollution characteristics, particle size of anti-pollution film, light transmittance. The particle size of anti-pollution film was analyzed with FE-SEM. The light transmittance was analyzed with UV-Visible spectroscopy including integrating sphere.

The preparation of FeB by SHS in $B_2O_3-Mg-Fe-Fe_3O_4$ system was investigated in this study. In the preparation of FeB, the effects of the initial pressure of inert gas in reactor, the content of Mg and $Fe_3O_4$ in mixture on the reactivity and reaction products was investigated. The minimum initial pressure of inert gas in reactor for SHS reaction in this system was 25 atm, and as the pressure increased, the concentration of unreacted Mg decreased and combustion temperature increased. At the initial inert gas pressure in reactor of 25 atm, the optimum composition for the preparation of pure FeB was $1.5B_2O_3$+3.43Mg+ 1.7Fe+$0.1Fe_3O_4$. The FeB synthesized in this condition had an irregular shape and the particle size of $5\;{\mu}m$.

Mechanical alloying using high-energy ball mill and subsequent spark plasma sintering (SPS) process was applied to understand mechanical alloying processing of Al-Fe alloy system. The thermal stability of mechanically alloyed Al-Fe alloy was intended to be enhanced by SPS process. Various analytical techniques including particle size analysis, density measurement, micro-Vickers hardness test, SEM, TEM, and X-ray diffractometry were adopted to find optimum processing conditions for mechanical alloying and subsequent SPS and to estimate thermal stability of the prepared alloy. It was found from the treatment of mechanically alloyed Al-8wt.%Fe powder mixture that needle-shaped $Al_3Fe$ precipitates was formed in the Al-Fe matrix, and the alloy compact showed enhanced densification and reached its full density with little loss of its fine microstructure. After heat treatment at $500^{\circC}$, it was also shown that the thermal stability of Al-8wt.%Fe alloy fabricated in the present study was enhanced, which was due to its fine microstructure developed by fast densification of SPS.

목적： 초상자성 nano-particle 조영제의 자기이완효과에 관한 out sphere 기전에 기초하여 각각의 자기장의 세기에서 T1/T2 자기이완율을 나타내는 NMRD profile을 수치적으로 simulation 하는 프로그램을 개발하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법： 초상자성 nano-particle 조영제의 경우 초상자성 물질을 생체적합성 고분자로 표면 coating하기 때문에 상자성 조영제와는 달리 전적으로 "out sphere"기여도만을 고려하였고 또한 초상자성 물질의 경우 자기적 에너지의 크기가 매우 크기 때문에 상자성 조영제의 기전에서 사용되는 "low field"근사를 사용할 수 없으므로 Brillouin 함수로 표현되는 총자화에 대한 표현을 적용하였다. nano-particle내에 포함된 Fe 원자수에 따른 T1 및 T2 NMRD Profile과 온도에 따른 T1 및 T2 NMRD Profile 그리고 초상자성 nano-particle size에 따른 T1 및 T2 NMR Profile을 PC (CPU=800 Mhz, memory=128 MB) 환경하에서 symbolic computation tool 인 MathCad (MathCad, USA)를 사용하여 구현하였다.
