The effect of Re-oxidation on the PTCR properties of Sm-doped barium titanate ceramics was investigated by means of impedance spectroscopy. Electrical properties such as resistance vs. temperature, I-V curve were measured and microstructure was observed with SEM photography. Sample was fabricated with thick film process such as tape casting of green sheet, screen printing of electrode pattern, stacking, firing in reduced atmosphere and re-oxidation, etc. As the temperature of re-oxidation increases, resistance jump as a function of temperature enhances but resistance at room temperature increases. These behavior of resistance as a function of temperature, dependent on the re-oxidation condition, is analyzed with Cole-Cole impedance plot and is shown to be related with the degree of oxidation of grain boundary regardless of grain core during re-oxidation process of sample.

Monolith aperture-type oxygen sensors with simple structure of YSZ(pin-hole)/Pt/ YSZ(solid electrolyte)/Pt were fabricated by co-firing technique. To enhance the yield of productivity, a couple of YSZ green sheets for diffused barrier and solid electrolyte were prepared by tape-casting and co-firing method. The limit current characteristics of the oxygen sensors were measured between 500 and $650^{\circ}C$ The heating temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ was optimum as a portable oxygen sensor in the range of oxygen concentration from 0 to 75 vol%. Linear proficiency of limit current behavior as a function of oxygen concentration was controlled by the variation of aperture dimension. The fabricated oxygen sensors showed the stable sensing output for 30 days. Gas leakage in bonding area due to warping, cracking and thermal cycling was not found in the period.

We fabricated switch module of ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) exchange system with MCM-C(MultiChip Module Co-fired) technology and measured its electrical characteristics. Green tape was used as substrate and Au/Ag paste was used to form the interconnect layers. The via holes were made by drill and filled with metal paste usign screen method. After manufacturing the substrate, chips and passive components were assembled on the substrate. In electrical test, the module showed the output signal of 46.9MHz synchronized with input signal. In the view of substrate size reduction, the area of MCM switch module was 35% of conventional hybrid switch module.

Strategies to make finished products more stable and efficacious can take advantage of formulation technologies- ingredients and techniques - to improve their delivery into the skin by both enhanced penetration and delayed release. Nanometer range particles and emulsion droplets can be formed with a selection of either silicone copolyol or conventional organic surfactants and dispersion shear rates sufficient to generate stable submicron droplets. By incorporating these into systems with biomimetic liquid crystalline gel networks in either simple or multiple phase emulsions the skin delivery can be enhanced as shown in tape stripping experiments. Such systems can stabilize labile actives, such as Vitamin C and retinol, and aid delivery. Laboratories in U.S and Europe investigated actives including green tea polyphenols, salicylic acid and methyl and benzyl nicotinate.

Solder leaching resistance of the metal electrode is an important factor with regard to adhesion properties of ceramic substrate. In the Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC), Ag-Pd or Ag-Pt pastes are used instead of pure Ag paste to prevent leaching. Solder leaching behavior of the Ag-Pd paste in relation to LTCC raw material powder size was investigated. First fabrication of LTCC green tape with different particle size was done. LTCC substrates with Ag-Pd electrode were prepared using conventional multilayer ceramic process. Dipping test was performed to test solder leaching behavior of the electrode. Ag-Pd electrode on LTCC substrate with smaller particle size achieved higher solder leaching resistance.

PMN-PZT 적충형 세라믹 액츄에이터 소자를 제작한후 그 열화 특성을 조사하였다. 액츄에이터는 tape casting 방법으로 green sheet를 제작한후, screen printing방법을 이용하여 전극형상을 만들고, lamination과 cutting공정을 통하여 소자를 제작하였다. 작된 소자의 구조적인 특성을 분석하기 위하여 X-ray diffractometer를 사용하였으며, Doppler effect를 사용하는 laser vibrometer를 이용하여 전압에 따른 변위량을 측정하였다. 제작된 소자의 열화 특성을 알아보기 위하여 60 Hz의 triangular 교류 파형을 적충형 세라믹 액츄에이터에 인가하여 열화전과 후의 P-E hysteresis loop의 변화를 살펴보았으며, unipolar AC 전압을 지속적으로 인가하여 소자를 depling 시킴으로써 열화현상을 관찰하였다. 파단면에 대한 SEM 분석을 통하여 소자의 파괴 메카니즘을 알아 보도록 하였다. 이로부터 전기적, 기계적 열화가 소자의 동작에 미치는 영향에 대해서 알아 보았다.

With high integration of electronic components, power inductors are also miniaturized. Recently, thick film processes for small size power inductors were developed and commercialized. However, the thick film process to prepare soft magnetic green sheets was not reported enough. In this study, we used Fe-Si magnetic and CIP (carbonyl iron powders) as starting materials to lead to a bimodal particle size distribution in the sheet. We proposed a newly developed 'Modified slurry preparation process' to get well dispersed condition even at high solid contents. Using the new process, it was possible to prepare a well dispersed slurry over 70 vol% of solid. BYK-103 was better than BYK-111 as dispersant in this slurry and the optimum amount was 0.6 wt%. The optimized slurry was formed into a sheet by tape casting process and then the sheet was laminated. We conformed that small size powder, large size powder, and epoxy resin were well dispersed in the green sheet.

Ceramic powder, such as MgO, is added as a binder to prepare the green compacts of molten salts of an electrolyte for a thermal battery. Despite the addition of a binder, when the thickness of the electrolyte decreases to improve the battery performance, the problem with the unintentional short circuit between the anode and cathode still remains. To improve the current powder molding method, a new type of electrolyte separator with porous MgO preforms is prepared and characteristics of the thermal battery are evaluated. A Spherical PMMA polymer powder is added as a pore-forming agent in the MgO powder, and an organic binder is used to prepare slurry appropriate for tape casting. A porous MgO preform with $300{\mu}m$ thickness is prepared through a binder burnout and sintering process. The particle size of the starting MgO powder has an effect, not on the porosity of the porous MgO preform, but on the battery characteristics. The porosity of the porous MgO preforms is controlled from 60 to 75% using a pore-forming agent. The batteries prepared using various porosities of preforms show a performance equal to or higher than that of the pellet-shaped battery prepared by the conventional powder molding method.

This study analyzes the current wearing status and awareness of warning clothing for elementary school students as well as to identify points of improvement for traffic accident prevention and clothing safety education. A survey was conducted on 279 elementary $5^{th}$ and $6^{th}$ graders in the Incheon area and Ansan in 2017 June & July. The results showed that more than 2/3 of participants had no experience wearing warning clothing. Second, 63% of participants answered 'traffic accident prevention' as the main purpose of warning clothing, showing that about 2/3 are aware of the importance. Third, yellow was the most preferred color of fluorescent material for warning clothing with a significant difference of preference by grade. The favorite color combination of participants was yellow & orange followed by yellow & light green, but showed a significant difference between boys and girls. Fourth, the most preferred form of warning clothing was fluorescent short sleeves and shorts without reflective tape, suggesting that students paid more to the purpose for reflective tape. Fifth, while 68% of participants were negative towards wearing safety clothes that are currently available, 66% were willing to try safety clothes if the color and the design improved. The results suggest an improved education with more emphasis on the purpose of clothing safety. Color and design adjustment of the current warning clothing is also recommended for a more active participation by elementary school students.
