The microstructure and deformation behavior in 22Cr-0.2N micro-duplex stainless steels with various Ni and Mn contents were compared using by OM, TEM, and XRD. The 22Cr-0.2N duplex stainless steel plates were fabricated and hot rolled, followed by annealing treatment at the temperature range of $1,000-1,100^{\circ}C$. All the samples showed the common strain hardening behaviour during the tensile test at a room temperature. The steels tested at the temperatures of $-30^{\circ}C$ or $-50^{\circ}C$ showed a distinct inflection point in the stress-strain curves, which should be resulted from the formation of strain-induced martensite(SIM) of austenite phase. This was confirmed by TEM observations. The onset strain of a inflection point in a stress-strain curve should be depended up the value of $M_d30$. With the decrease of the tensile test temperature, the inflection point appeared earlier, and the strength and fracture strain were higher. The tensile behaviour was discussed from the point of austenite stability of the micro-duplex stainless steels with the different Ni and Mn content.

Lattice structure, hydrogen absorption characteristics, discharge capacity and cycle life of $V_{22}Ti_{16}Zr_{16}Ni_{39}X_7$(X= Cr, Co, Fe, Mn, Al) alloys were investigated. The matrix phases of these alloys were the C14 Laves phase. Chromium-containing alloy had a vanadium-rich phase in addition to the Laves phase. The chromium, maganese, or aluminum-containing alloys had lower hydrogen equilibrium pressure and larger hydrogen absorption content than the cobalt or iron-containing alloys. The discharge capacities of these alloys were 270~330mAh/g. The discharge capacity according to the alloying element X decreased in the order of Mn>Cr>Co, Al)Fe. The charge/discharge cycle lives of the chromium, cobalt or iron-containing alloys were longer than those of maganese or aluminum-containing alloys due to the lower vanadium dissolution rate.

Solid oxide electrolytes of 8mol% YSZ($Y_2O_3$ stabilized zirconia) were prepared at various sintering conditions and their ionic conductivities were measured. The highest ionic conductivity of $10^{-1}S.cm^{-1}$ was obtained when the sintering temperature was 1400oC and the sintering time was 10hr. Also the cathode material, $La_{1-x}Sr_xMnO_3$ was prepared by solid state reaction method and the overpotential, electrical conductivity, and charge transfer resistance between cathode material and YSZ electrolyte were studied. It was found that the optimum doping content of Sr for La was 50mo1%.

The changes in damping capacity with volume fractions of thermal and deformation-induced ${\varepsilon}$ martensites were compared and analyzed in an Fe-23%-Mn alloy. The volume fraction of thermal ${\varepsilon}$ martensite increased with decreasing cooling temperature, whereas that of deformation-induced ${\varepsilon}$ martensite increased steeply up to 10%- of cold rolling and nearly saturated in further cold rolling. In the case of thermal ${\varepsilon}$ martensite, the damping capacity increased linearly with the increase in ${\varepsilon}$ martensite content. For the deformation-induced ${\varepsilon}$ martensite, however, the damping capacity increased continuously up to 70%- of ${\varepsilon}$ martensite, over which it decreased suddenly. TEM microstructures showed that the deterioration of damping capacity above 70%- of deformation-induced ${\varepsilon}$ martensite is ascribed to the introduction of perfect dislocations, which play a important role in inhibiting the movement of damping sources such as stacking fault boundaries inside ${\varepsilon}$ martensite, ${\varepsilon}$ martensite variant boundaries and ${\gamma}/{\varepsilon}$ interfaces.

Effects of Zn and Zr additions on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-5%Mg-1%Mn alloys were investigated. As Zn content increased in the Al-Mg-Mn-Zn alloys, the tensile strength and ductility of as-cast alloys rather decreased while the tensile strength of the heat-treated alloys significantly increased mainly due to the precipitation of fine $MgZn_2$ phases. Small amount of Zr was added to the 3%Zn alloy to further enhance the mechanical properties, and it appeared to increase the strength and ductility, especially in as-cast state.

The purpose of present investigation is to obtain ductile cast iron with ferrite-bainite matrix by pearlite-bainite transformation treatment. Ductile cast irons having three kinds of Mn ampunt had been manufactured. Mn increased pearlite volume fraction iin as-cast ductile cast iron. Ductile cast irons of different pearlite fraction were austenitized at $875\;^{\circ}C$ for 230-350 sec or $925\;^{\circ}C$ for 130-170 sec followed by austempering at $300\;^{\circ}C$ or $400\;^{\circ}C$ for the various periods of time from 5 to 30 min. When specimen was austenitixed for 130 sec at $925\;^{\circ}C$ and for 230 sec at $875\;^{\circ}C$, pearlite was transformed into austenite. Bainite around graphite was found at $925^{\circ}C$ for 170 sec. Bainite in grain boundary of ferrite was happened at $875^{\circ}C$ for 350 sec. During the austempering process, acicular bainite was precipitated at $300^{\circ}C$ and lath bainite was precipitated at $400^{\circ}C$. Increment in manganese content restrained bainitic transformation. Retained austenie was of little quantity.

The effects of intermediate annealing (IA) and the final cold rolling (CR) condition on the microstructure and sagging resistance during brazing were investigated using three layer clad sheets composed of the Al-7.5 wt.%Si alloy (filler, thickness: 10 ㎛)/Al-1.3 wt.%Mn based alloy (core, 80㎛)/Al-7.5 wt.%Si alloy (filler, 10㎛). Also, the effect of 1.2∼2 wt.% Zn addition into the core on the sagging resistance of the clad sheets was determined. It was revealed that all the clad sheets fabricated by the optimum condition (IA at 690 K and CR to 20∼45%) show excellent sagging resistance with a limited erosion due to the formation of a coarsely recrystallized grain structure in the core during brazing. It was also revealed that the recrystallization behavior of the Al-1.3 wt.%Mn based alloy is hardly affected by the addition of 1.2-2 wt.%Zn during the brazing cycle. Therefore, the sagging resistance of the clad sheets is found to be governed not by the Zn content added in the A1-1.3wt.%Mn based core, but by the intermediate annealing and final cold rolling condition.

1. Neutron acivation analysis of arsenic contained in Korean human liver was studied in the view point of forensic chemistry, using 12 corpses. A sample of 1g was irradiated for 30 mins. in a neutron flux of $1.2{\times}10^{12}n/cm^2/sec$, followed by nitric-sulfuric acid digestion and then by Gutzeit separation. Radio activity was detected by it's scintillation counter. The arsenic content in the liver was found to be $0.01{\mu}g/g$ to $0.15{\mu}g/g$. 2. A rapid and convenient method for the radiochemical determination of minerals by neutron activation analysis was established. After neutron irradiation to the standard soln. of Cu and Mn in pneumatic tube (neutron flux : $1.2{\times}10^{12}n/cm^2/sec$), Cu and Mn were determined by estimating the ratio of the widths under energy peak area in ${\gamma}-ray-spectrogram$. When the standard soln. of Mn and Cu is irradiated for 15 mins. to 18 hrs., recovery test shows that the relative errors are 5.1% and 4.5% for copper and manganese, respectively.

G $d_{0.2}$C $e_{0.8}$ $O_{1.9}$(CGO) for electrolyte and L $a_{0.5}$S $r_{0.5}$Mn $O_3$(LSM50) for cathode in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells(SOFC) were synthesized by citrate process. Specimens were prepared with sintering temperatures at 110$0^{\circ}C$, 120$0^{\circ}C$ and 130$0^{\circ}C$, which were fabricated by slurry coating with citric acid contents. Interfacial resistance was measured between cathode and electrolyte using AC-impedance analyzer. With various citric acid content, the degree of agglomeration for the initial particles changed. Also sintering temperature changed the particle size and the degree of densification of cathode. Factors affecting the interfacial resistance were adherent degree of the electrolyte and cathode, distribution of TPB(three phase boundaries, TPB i.e., electrolyte/electrode/gas phase area) and porosity of cathode. By increasing the sintering temperature, particle size and densification of the cathode were increased. And then, TPB area which occurs catalytic reaction was reduced and so interfacial resistance was increased.sed.sed.d.

Recently, new extraction technology for manganese nodule has been developed as alternative noble metallic resources. It is important to understand thermodynamic behaviors of phosphorus in low basic slag system from the viewpoint of the refining processing optimization. Thermodynamic behaviors of phosphorus in the $FeO-MnO-CaO-SiO_2-MgO_{satd.}$ slag system were investigated at 1723 K with various oxygen potential and slag composition of low basicity. The experimental results for dependence of phosphorus on oxygen potential and slag basicity indicated that the dissolution mechanism of phosphorus into slag of low basicity could be derived as follows; $[P]+5/4O_2+(O^{2-})=({PO_{3.5}}^{2-})$ Present experimental results implied that stability of phosphorus in slag would be depended on both of $O^{2-}$ (basicity) and content of $Ca^{2+}$ in molten slag. The thermodynamic effect of FeO, MnO and $Na_2O$ on low basicity on phosphate capacity was discussed.
