For dolomite clinkers used as stamp materials the corrosion behavior of those by molten steel was investigated in therange of temperatures between 1550$^{\circ}C$ and 1600$^{\circ}C$ IN hot face the dicalciumferrite of magnesioferrite and dicalciumferrite formed within dolomite clinkers was preferentially dissolved into molten steel and the protective layer of magnesioferrite was formed. For dolomite clinker without Fe2O3 magnesioferrite maintained the skeleton of MgO while the skeleton of CaO disappered bythe formation of dicalciumferrite and it existed as grain boundary phases of magnesioferrite. For dolomite clinker with Fe2O3 was diffused into hot face by the decomposition of dicalciumferrite. With increasing temperature of molten steel the formation depth of dicalciumferrite was increased and the magnesioferrite layer in hot face was decreased for dolomite clinker without Fe2O3 while the layer thickness and grain sizes of magnesioferrite in hot face was decreased for dolomite clinker without Fe2O3 while the layer thickness an grain sizes of magnesioferrite in hot face was increased due to the increment of the decomposition reaction of dicalciumferrite for dolomite clinker with Fe2O3.

The crystallization of FePt/MgO(001) magnetic thin films of various thicknesses has been studied using synchrotron x-ray scattering, atomic force microscope, and vibrating sample magnetometer. In film with a 499-$\AA$-thick, face-centered tetragonal, ordered FePt phase was dominantly crystallized into perpendicular (001) grains keeping the magnetically easy c-axis normal to the film plane during annealing. In film with a 816-$\AA$-thick, however, longitudinal (110) grains keeping the c-axis parallel to the film plane were grown on top of the perpendicular (001) grains. The behavior of the magnetic properties was consistent with the thickness dependence of the crystallization. We attribute the thickness dependence of the crystallization to the substrate effect, which prefers the growth of the c-axis oriented perpendicular grains near the film/substrate interfacial area.

We report results of first principles calculations for effects of an external electric field (E-field) on the magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA) in transition-metal (Fe, Co, and Ni) monolayers and at metal-insulator (Fe/MgO) interfaces by means of full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. For the monolayers, the MCA in the Fe monolayer (but not in the Co and Ni) is modified by the E-field, and a giant modification is achieved in the $Fe_{0.75}Co_{0.25}$. For the Fe/MgO interfaces, the ideal Fe/MgO interface gives rise to a large out-of plane MCA, and a MCA modification is induced when an E-field is introduced. However, the existence of an interfacial FeO layer between the Fe layer and the MgO substrate may play a key role in demonstrating an Efield-driven MCA switching, i.e., from out-of-plane MCA to in-plane MCA.

We report the epitaxial growth of MgO and CoFe/MgO on Ge (001) substrates using molecular beam epitaxy. It was found that the epitaxial growth of a MgO film on Ge could be realized at a low growth temperature of $125{\pm}5^{\circ}C$ and the MgO matches the Ge with a cell ratio of $\sqrt{2}$:1 which renders MgO rotated by $45^{\circ}$ relative to Ge. In-situ and ex-situ structural characterizations reveal the epitaxial crystal growth of bcc CoFe/MgO on Ge with the in-plane crystallographic relationship of CoFe(001)[100] || MgO(001)[110] || Ge(001)[100], exhibiting sharp interfaces in the (001) matching planes. The saturation magnetization of the sample is $1430{\pm}20$ emu/cc, which is comparable to the value of bulk CoFe.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of organic iron supplemented to feed for broilers. One hundred forty four Ross broiler chicks were assigned to 6 treatments: control containing 80mg Fe from iron sulfate per kg diet(FE-80), FE-160 (control multiplied two times), YM-80 containing 80mg Fe from yeast mutant, YM-160 (YM-80 multiplied two times), YF-80 containing 80mg Fe from ferritin containing yeast, YF-160 (YF-80 multiplied two times) in the experiment. Each treatment had four replications of 6 birds each. The weight gain of the YM-160 was significantly higher (P＜0.05) than that of the control (FE-80). The YM and YF in the serum cholesterol level were significantly higher (P＜0.05) than the control. In the cholesterol level of carcass, although the control (FE-80) was highest and the YM and YF were very low; however, there were no significant differences among treatments. In the iron level of carcass, the control (FE-80) showed the lowest level among treatments; the YM and YF were significantly higher (P＜0.05) than the control. In conclusion, the supplementation with organic iron to broiler chicks improve productivity. We also expect the possibility on chicken meat with reinforcing iron.

Ferro-Nickel slag is one of the by-products in Ferro-Nickel manufacturing process. The slag is composed of $SiO_2$, MgO, $Fe_2O_3$ and others. But the slag has been buried at landfill despite having valuable elements. This study tried to extract Mg ion and fabricate Mg compound from ferro-nickel slag using hydrochloric acid solution. Mg ion was extracted with Si, Fe and other ions in HCl solution. So reprocess was needed for gaining high purity Mg ion. It was thought that Si ion or $SiO_2$ precipitated in HCl solution and removed from solution in filtering process. Fe ion converted into $Fe(OH)_3$ after reacted with $NH_4OH$ and precipitated in HCl solution. After these process, the filtrate was composed of high purity Mg ion. $MgCl_2{\cdot}NH_4Cl{\cdot}6H_2O$ was obtained through drying of filtrate and this product was changed into MgO by burning process ($600^{\circ}C$-30 min). That is, 1st material or solution for manufacturing 2nd product was fabricated using acid dissolution method and other treatments.

Electromagnetic wave asorbing properties of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$, where X was replaced by substitution elements Cu, Mg, Mn, have been studied. The structure, shape, size and magnetic properties of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$ were analyzed by XRD, SEM, VSM. The relative complex permittivity, permeability, and electromagnetic wave absorbing properties were measured by Network Analyzer. The structure, shape, size and magnetization value of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$ were found to be similar in spite of substitution elements. The coercive force and hysteresis-loss showed maximum value when Mg was substituted for X. The dielectric loss(${\varepsilon}_r"/{\varepsilon}_r'$) was found to be maximum value when Mn was substituted for X. Also the magnetic loss(${\mu}_r"/{\mu}_r'$} was found to be maximum with Cu substitution. The electromagnetica wave absorbing property of the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$-Rubber composite with 4mm thickness was excellent as over - 40dB at 9GHz, and the $Ni_{0.5}-Zn_{0.4}-X_{0.1}{\cdot}Fe_2O_4$-Rubber composite with 8mm thickness was over-40dB at 2GHz. Those composites also showed superior microwave absorbing properties.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of copper supplementation on mineral utilizations in rats. Intakes, excretions, and tissue levels of Fe, Zn, Cu, Ca, Mg, Na, K were compared in rats fed diet with 100, 200, 400% of copper requirement(1Cu, 2Cu and 4Cu, respectively) for 6 weeks. The feed intake was significantly higher in 2Cu compared to 1Cu group, however, body weight gain was not significantly different among the three groups. While the serum level of Fe was significantly decreased, that of Cu was significantly elevated by Cu supplementation. The liver and kidney levels of Mg and Na, intakes of all the minerals, urinary excretions of Fe, Cu, Ca and Mg were significantly higher in 2Cu and/or 4Cu compared to 1Cu. The fecal excretions, retentions and absorptions of all the minerals were not affected by Cu supple mentation. In summary, these results suggest that dietary Cu supplementation has no effect on mineral utilizations, but effect on distribution in tissues of rats.

The aim of this research is to investigate the effects of gas bubbles on the formation of spheroidal graphite in cast iron, Fe-Si-8%Mg alloy, mischmetal hydride($MmH_2$) and $CaCO_3$, which discharge various amounts of Mg, $H_2$ and $Co_2$, gases, were added to Fe-3.9% C-2.0%Si melt and the melt was innoculated with 0.3wt% of 75%Fe-Si. The spheroidal graphites and/or compacted vermicular graphites were produced with more than 0.625cc/g of Mg gas or more than 0.3125cc/g of $H_2$ gas while $CO_2$ gas did not contribute to graphite spheroidization. Nodule counts increased with the amount of Fe-Si-Mg added ; but they decreased with the amount of $MmH_2$ added because the number of effective gas bubbles decrease with the increase in Mm residual. The bull's eye structure was revealed with 0.625cc/g, 1.25cc/g of Mg and 0.3125cc/g of $H_2$ ; the ledeburite structure was revealed with more than 0.625cc/g of $H_2$.

In this study, the effect of physico-chemical variables on sludge conditioning was determined to enhance dewaterability of effluent produced from the thermophilic anaerobic digestion of food waste. The gas production rate and methane content during the anaerobic digestion of food waste were $1.1m^3/kg$ VS and 63%, respectively, and the biodegradability of volatile solids was 87.5%. The concentrations of CODcr, TKN and TP of effluent from digestor were 18,500mg/L, 2,800mg/L, and 582mg/L, respectively. At the jar test to screen the flocculant for the dewatering of effluent from digestor, $FeCl_3$ and strong cationic polymer were effective on making flocs in the effluent. The condition of flocculation of effluent were 500mg/L of $FeCl_3$ and 50-100 mg/L of strong cationic polymer, respectively. As the result of measuring of dewaterability potential of effluent to determine the mixing ratio between $FeCl_3$ and polymer by capillary suction time(SCT), optimum condition was 500mg/L of $FeCl_3$ and 80mg/L of strong cationic polymer.
