For reducing outer reflection in mono-crystalline silicon solar cell, wet texturing process has been adapted for long period of time. Nowadays mixed solution with potassium hydroxide and isopropyl alcohol is used in silicon surface texturing by most manufacturers. In the process of silicon texturing, etch rate is very critical for effective texturing. Several parameters influence the result of texturing. Most of all, temperature, process time and concentration of potassium hydroxide can be classified as important factors. In this paper, temperature, process time and concentration of potassium hydroxide were set as major parameters and 3-level test matrix was created by using robust design for the optimized condition. The process optimization in terms of lowest reflection and stable etch rate can be traced by using robust design method.

When a zinc-oxide eugenol type sealer was placed in root canals treated previously with calcium hydroxide, acceleration of its setting and the yellowish discoloration were observed clinically. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the properties of calcium hydroxide-eugenol compound. Some physical properties of calcium hydroxide-eugenol compound were compared with a manufactured zinc-oxide eugenol based root canal sealer, Tubli-seal$^{(R)}$ in terms of water solubility, water sorption, film thickness and microleakage. Solubility and water sorption were determined by the use of the method described in American Dental Association Specification(ADAS) no. 57. Ten samples of each material were prepared into disks 20mm in diameter and 1.5mm in thickness. The samples were immersed in 50ml of distilled water at $37{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The samples were then removed and placed in a desiccator. The values for solubility and water sorption were calculated using differences between the weights of same sample. Film thickness was determined by the use of the method described in ADAS no. 57 too. A small quantity of mixed cement was placed between two glass plates of which thickness was measured previously. 15Kg loading was applied and total thickness of the glass plates and the cement film was measured. The thickness difference was recorded as the material's film thickness. Microleakage was determined with a dye penetration method. Experimental materials were placed between the dentin surface of bovine tooth and the acrylic rod. These units were immersed in Pelican ink (W-Germany) for three days. Dye-penetrated dentin surfaces of bovine tooth were measured using the NIB Image 1.60 Macintosh program. The results are as follows: 1. Water solubility value of calcium hydroxide-eugenol compound (20.98${\pm}$2.94%) was statistically higher than those of Tubli-seal$^{(R)}$(2.52${\pm}$0.49%)(p<0.05). 2. Water sorption value of calcium hydroxide-eugenol compound (59.72${\pm}$17.75%) was statistically higher than those of Tubli-seal$^{(R)}$(3.15${\pm}$0.76%)(p<0.05). 3. Film thickness value of calcium hydroxide-eugenol compound (0.36${\pm}$0.03mm) was statistically higher than those of Tubli-seal$^{(R)}$(0.12${\pm}$0.1mm)(p<0.05). 4. Dye penetration value after 3 days-immersion of calcium hydroxide-eugenol compound(57.63${\pm}$25.85%) was statistically higher than those of Tubli-seal$^{(R)}$(28.05${\pm}$23.46%)(p<0.05).

BCP powder was synthesized using microwave hydrothermal process with mixed calcium hydroxide and phosphoric acid. After using replica method, porous BCP scaffold was fabricated. PU (Poly Urethane) was used as the fugitive skeleton to fabricate the porous scaffold. BCP powder was mixed in PVB (Polyvinyl butyral) and ethanol solution and then applied to the PU foam by dip coating. After several times of coating and the subsequent oven drying the coated PU foam was burnt out at $750^{\circ}C$ at air to remove the PU. The resulting networked porous composites were sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$, $1300^{\circ}C$ and $1350^{\circ}C$ in microwave furnace for 30 minutes. Material properties of the porous bodies like compressive strength and porosity were investigated. Detailed microstructure of the BCP porous body was characterized by SEM and XRD and TEM techniques. In our experiments, the relationship between mechanical property and viscosity of powder, sintering temperature was investigated.

In this study, a new, relatively simple fabrication method for forming a mesoporous $Al(OH)_3$ film on Al substrates was demonstrated. This method, i.e., alkali surface modification, was simply comprised of dipping the substrate in a $5\times10^{-3}$ M NaOH solution at $80^{\circ}C$ for one minute and then immersing it in boiling water for 30 minutes. After alkali surface modification, a mesoporous $Al(OH)_3$ film was formed on the Al substrate, and its chemical state and crystal structure were confirmed by XPS and TEM. According to the results of the XPS analysis, the flake-like morphology after the alkali surface modification was mainly composed of $Al(OH)_3$, with a small amount of $Al_2O_3$. The mesoporous $Al(OH)_3$ layer was composed of three regions: an amorphousrich region, a region of mixed amorphous and crystal domains, and a crystalline-rich region near the $Al(OH)_3$ layer surface. It was confirmed that the stabilization process in the alkali surface modification strongly influenced the crystallization of the mesoporous $Al(OH)_3$ layer.

In this report, some practical problems that are concerned with the infected barley were examined. Most of the toxic substance is present in the bran. It was almost impossible to remove the toxic substance with water or methanol completly, however, we found it is effectively eliminated by soaking the whole grain with 2%, calcium hydroxide suspension for 24 hours. As a detoxifying agent, kieselguhr was very effective; the grain mixed with little amounts (0.4-0.5%) of kieselguhr may be used as an animal feed.

The spinel $LiMn_{2}O_{4}$ powders were synthesized at $480^{\circ}C$ for 12 h in air by a sol-gel method using manganese acetate and lithium hydroxide as starting material and the $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ powders were synthesized by the precipitation method using $0.2M-FeSO_{4}{\cdot}H_{2}O$ and 0.5M-NaOH. The synthesized $Fe_{3}O_{4}$ powders were mixed at portion of 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt% about $LiMn_{2}O_{4}$ powders through ball-milling followed by drying at room temperature for 48 h in air. The mixed catalysts were reduced at $350^{\circ}C$ for 3 h by hydrogen and the decomposition rate of carbon dioxide was measured at $350^{\circ}C$ using the reduced catalysts. As the results of $CO_{2}$ decomposition experiments, the decomposition rates of carbon dioxide were 85% in all catalysts but the initial decomposition rates of $CO_{2}$ were slightly high in the case of the $5%-Fe_{3}O_{4}$ added catalyst.

The purposes of this study were to compare the efficacy of irrigation systems by removing a calcium hydroxide $(Ca(OH)_2)$ paste from the apical third of the root canal and the effect of the patency file. Sixty single rooted human teeth were used in this study. The canals were instrumented by a crown-down manner with .04 taper ProFile to ISO #35. $Ca(OH)_2$ and distilled water were mixed and placed inside the root canals. The teeth were divided into 6 groups according to the root canal irrigation system and the use of patency file as follows: group 1 - conventional method: group 2 - $EndoActivator^{(R)}$: group 3 - $EndoVac^{(R)}$; group 4 - conventional method, patency: group 4 - $EndoActivator^{(R)}$, patency; group 6 - $EndoVac^{(R)}$, patency. All teeth were irrigated with sodium hypochlorite. After the root canal irrigation, the teeth were split in bucco-lingual aspect. Percentage of the root canal surface coverage with residual $Ca(OH)_2$ until 3 mm from working length was analyzed using Image Pro Plus ver. 4.0. Statistical analysis was performed using the One-way ANOVA, t-test and Scheffe's post-hoc test. Conventional groups had significantly more $Ca(OH)_2$ debris than $EndoActivator^{(R)}$, $EndoVac^{(R)}$ groups. There was no significant difference between $EndoActivator^{(R)}$ and $EndoVac^{(R)}$ groups. Groups with patency file showed more effective in removing $Ca(OH)_2$ paste than no patency groups. but. it was no significant difference. This study showed that $EndoActivator^{(R)}$ and $EndoVac^{(R)}$ systems were more effective in removing $Ca(OH)_2$ paste from the apical third of the root canal than conventional method.

In this paper, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) were synthesized using the sonochemical method, where equimolar amounts of zinc acetate dehydrate and sodium hydroxide were separately dissolved in deionized water, and then mixed for 30 min under magnetic stirring. The resultant white gel was sonicated for 60, 120, 180, 240, and 360 min with magnetic stirring. The obtained precipitates were centrifuged, repeatedly washed with ethanol to remove ionic impurities, and dried at 50 ℃ for 24 h. The formation of pure NPs was confirmed by X-ray diffraction, and their crystallinity and crystal phases were analyzed as well. Structural investigation was carried out by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The photocatalysis behavior of the ZnO NPs was investigated in a dark room under UV irradiation, using Rhodamine B. Spherical, rod, and flower-like ZnO NPs could be obtained by adjusting the sonication time, as observed by FE-SEM. The flower-like ZnO NPs exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity.
