Protein-enriched dairy powder is widely consumed to promote muscle synthesis. Recently, in Korea, elderly people have also begun consuming protein powder products to prevent muscle loss. However, these protein-enriched powders have poor flowability and hydration properties because of the fine particles of spray-dried milk protein powder. Therefore, in this study, the fluidized bed agglomeration process was used to solve these problems. The rheological and physical properties of milk protein isolate (MPI)/skim milk powder (SMP) mixtures were effectively improved via fluidized bed agglomeration. The particle size of the MPI/SMP mixtures significantly increased from 35.7-58 ㎛ to 118-136 ㎛, the flowability level improved from fair (21.4-26.3) to good (15.7-16.3), and the cohesiveness level changed from intermediate (1.27-1.36) to low (1.18-1.19) after fluidized bed agglomeration. In addition, the wetting time of the agglomerated MPI/SMP mixtures was effectively reduced to 4.67-58.3 s by fluidized bed agglomeration. These findings may be useful for manufacturing protein-enriched dairy powders with good instant properties.

Sr$_{l-x}$Ba$_{x}$Al$_2$O$_4$:Eu (x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 mol) phosphor was synthesized by the hydrothermal method and its properties of photoluminescence and long-afterglow were investigated. The mixtures of Sr(NO$_3$)$_2$, Al(NO$_3$)$_3$9$H_2O$, and Eu(NO$_3$)$_3$$.$6$H_2O$ salts dissolved in distilled water, after controlling their pH by NH$_4$OH solution, put into an Autoclave reactor with high temperature and pressure to react. Such synthesized SrAl$_2$O$_4$:Eu powders showed homogeneous and ultra-fine particles of sub-micron size. In order to have the photoluminescence characteristic, powders were heat treated at 1100 -140$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in Ar/H$_2$ reduction atmosphere. Photoluminescence spectra showed a excitation along the wide wavelength of 250 ∼ 450 nm, and broaden emission with maxima peak at 520 nm. Also, it showed a good long afterglow with decaying over 1000 sec after excitation illumination for 10 min. In addition, the microstructure and crystal structure of SrAl$_2$O$_4$:Eu powders were investigated by an SEM and XRD, respectively.

Dust explosions are occurring in a variety of industries. A dust explosion caused by a specific energy generates huge amount of energy in the ignition and releases decomposition gas. Damages can be increased since this released decomposition gas can cause second and subsequent explosions. In this study, the goal was to obtain practical information on what could affect the explosion by comparing the characteristics of two kinds of dusts with completely different chemical properties. Three kinds of dusts were measured and evaluated for explosion pressure, dust explosion index, explosion limit and minimum ignition energy. It is possible to grasp the characteristics of each dust and use it as useful accident prevention data in the production of raw material powder.

Ultra fine titanium carbide particles were synthesized by novel metallic thermo-reduction process. The vaporized TiC1$_4$+$CCl_4$ gases were reacted with liquid magnesium and the fine titanium carbide particles were then produced by combining the released titanium and carbon atoms. The vacuum treatment was followed to remove the residual phases of MgC1$_2$ and excess Mg. The stoichiometry, microstructure, fixed and carbon contents and lattice parameter were investigated in titanium carbide powders produced in various reaction parameters.

Surface passivation using glass powders results in good reliability for high voltage silicon power devices. In this paper, Zinc borosilicate glass was prepared for the purpose of passivating, and a deposition technique of glass films on the silicon surface by electrophoresis in which acetone is used as a suspension medium and a measurement technique of C-V curve has been investigated. Properties were compared using SEM, XRD, C-V Curve as a function of firing condition, temperature and atmosphere were investigated. Under 100V applied, 1 minute, $700^{\circ}C$ firing temperature, and $O_2$ atmosphere, I can get the fine films $5.8{\mu}m$ thickness with Zinc borosilicate glass. As a result of investigation of glass films, it has been found that pre-firing and annealing play an important role to achieve uniform, fine, reliable glass deposition films and Glass/Silicon interlace.

In this study, nickel hydroxide crystalline powders were synthesized by continuous reaction in the taylor fluid flow using nickel chloride, nickel sulphate and sodium hydroxide as raw materials and compared with those prepared by a conventional batch type reaction. The crystallinity of nickel hydroxide prepared by the Taylor fluid flow reaction was higher than that of nickel hydroxide obtained by batch reaction. The particle size of nickel hydroxide decreased about 2.5 to 3.6 times, and the specific surface area was increased.

TiO2 fine powders were synthesized using oxygenolysis and hydrolysis reaction of TiCl4 vapor in gas phase. The TiO2 powder synthesized showed morphological differences depending on reaction system as follows: TiCl4-O2 reaction system produced the monosized particles having polyhedral shape with well-defined crystal planes and the particles did not agglomerate into secondary particles. TiCl4-H2O reaction system, whereas, produced the spherical secondary particles which consisted of fine primary particles. Other powder characteristics such as particle size, impurity content and rutile content are also reported in this study.

1) Using a developed high-frequency induction heated sintering method, the rapid densification of WC-Co hard materials was accomplished using ultra fine powders with 260 nm size within 1 minute. 2) The relative density of the composite was 99.5% for the applide pressure of 60MPa and the induced current for 90% output of total capacity. 3) The grain size of WC-Co hard materials is about 260nm and the average thickness of the binder phase determined is about 11nm. The fracture toughness and the hardness of this work 12 $MPa{\cdot}nm^2$, respectively. 4) Using pressureless sintering, we produced dense WC-Co hard materials with a relative density of 97% without applying pressure.

$BaTiO_3$ fine powder was synthesized by hydrothermal process from the mixture of titania-hydroxide($TiO_2{\cdot}xH_2O$) and barium hexa-hydroxide ($Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$) as starting materials. Fine powder(< 100 nm) was made under the reaction conditions of 18$0^{\circ}C$,10 atm, 1.5 hr in autoclave and showed cubic structure. The powders were sintered by a spark plasma sintering technique from 1050~115$0^{\circ}C$ for 5 min. The grains of sample sintered at 110$0^{\circ}C$ were about 0.9${\mu}m$ in average size and showed the mixture of cubic and tetragonal structures.

The Nb doped BaTiO3 was synthesized by coprecipitation method using H2O2 media in region from pH 8 to pH 11. The powder prepared by using this method was crystallized at about 20$0^{\circ}C$ and average particle size was controlled by heat treatment. Because of preparation having fine particle and relatively narrow particle size distribution, high performance PTC device was made of these precipitated powders.
