Dynamic nano-indentation method was applied to characterize thin electroformed Ni-P layers. The Ni-P layers were produced in a sulphamic acid bath at $50^{\circ}C$ in $0.02A/cm^2$ for 10-60 minutes. The chemical analyses by XRD and EDX showed that the Ni-P layers were very fine grains with mainly $Ni_3P$ with Ni. The surface roughness determined by atomic force microscopy increased with thickness, which was relative to the surface morphology. The nano-hardness and the stiffness of the thin Ni-P layers with thickness of 1.9, 6.2 and $7.5{\mu}m$ were 5.52, 6.52 and 6.77 [GPa] and 56.7, 76.2 and 108.0 [${\mu}N/nm$], respectively. The elastic modulus of the Ni-P layer increased with thickness such as 37.29, 54.50 and 78.76 [GPa], respectively. The surface roughness of the electroplated Ni-P layers with diverse thickness was 8.66, 18.56 and 35.22 [nm], respectively. The enhanced nano-mechanical properties were related to mainly residual stress of the Ni-P layers.

Layered Ni-rich NCM cathode materials $Li[Ni_xCo_{(1-x)/2}Mn_{(1-x)/2}]O_2$ ($x{\geq}0.6$) have advantages of high energy density and cost competitive over $LiCoO_2$. The discharge capacity of NCM increases proportionally to the Ni contents. However, there is a problem that it is difficult to realize the stable electrochemical performance due to cation mixing. In this study, synthesis conditions for the layered Ni-rich NCMs are investigated to achieve deliver the ones having good electrochemical performances. Synthesis parameters are atmosphere, lithium source, synthesis time, synthesis temperature and Li/M (M=transition metal) ratio. The degree of cation mixing gets worse as the Ni content is increased from $Li[Ni_{0.6}Co_{0.2}Mn_{0.2}]O_2$ (NCM6) to $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.1}Mn_{0.1}]O_2$ (NCM8). It is confirmed that higher level of cation mixing affects negatively on the electrochemical performance of NCMs. Optimum synthesis conditions are explored for NCMx (x=6, 7, 8) in order to reduce the cation mixing. Under optimized conditions for three representative NCMx, a high initial discharge capacity and a good cycle life are obtained for $180mAh{\cdot}g^{-1}$, 96.2% (50 cycle) in NCM6, $187mAh{\cdot}g^{-1}$, 94.7% (50 cycle) in NCM7, and $201mAh{\cdot}g^{-1}$, 92.7% (50 cycle) in NCM8, respectively.

In this study, Ni-P layers were electroplated on the surface of stainless steel in order to investigate the effects of an additive and agitation on their mechanical properties and microstructure. The concentration of the additive in the plating solution increased, the pores formed in the layer decreased, while the residual stress developed in the layers during electroplating increased. Agitation of the solution during electroplating was observed to force to increase local pores in the layer, which lowers its tensile properties. Grain growth was suppressed due to very fine $Ni_3P$ precipitates formed at its grain boundaries during heat treatment at $343^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr in air.

The objective of present research work is to design the heat conductive mould to improve cooling characteristics of the injection mould for a mouse. In order to obtain the high cooling rate of the mould, a heat conductive mould with three different materials was designed. The materials of the base structure, the mid-layer and the molding part of the heat conductive mould were chosen as Cu-Ni alloy (Ampcoloy 940) to improve the heat conductivity of the mould, Ni-Cu alloy (Monel 400) to reduce a thermal stress, injection tool steel (P21), respectively. Through the three-dimensional transient heat transfer analysis and the thermal stress analysis, the effects of the geometrical arrangement of each material on the cooling characteristics and the thermal stress distribution were examined. From the results of the analyses, a proper design of the thermal conductive mould was obtained.

To improve the joining characteristics of metallic converter substrate for exhaust gas cleaning, high temperature brazing process has been studied. In this study, the effect of chemical composition of brazing filler metal on the oxidation behavior of brazed joints was investigated closely. Brazing was carried out at $1200^\circC$ in vacuum furnace using nickel-based filler metals : BNi-5 powder(Ni-Cr-Si base alloy) and MBF-50 foil(Ni-Cr-Si-B). The MBF-50 containing 1-1.5 wt%B showed relatively poor oxidation resistance of the brazed joints compared to BNi-5, because of the faster invasion of oxygen through the Kirkendal voids along the interface of mother alloy/filler metal.

The recombinant plasmids harboring a heterologous gene coding mouse endostatin were transfected and expressed stably in Trichoplusia ni Tn 5B1-4 cells and Bombyx mori BmN cells, respectively. Recombinant endostatin expressed in the stably transformed Tn 5B1-4 and BmN cells was secreted into the medium. BmN cells are relatively lower in maximum cell growth and recombinant endostatin production than Tn 5B 1-4 cells. Recombinant endostatin was also purified to homogeneity using a simple one-step ${Ni^2+}$ affinity fractionation method. Purified recombinant endostatin inhibited endothelial cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. The concentration at half-maximum inhibition $({ED_50})$ for recombinant endostatin was approximately 0.35 ${\mu}g$/ml.

This article describes the orthodontic treatment of a 25-year-old Korean female patient with anterior crowding, including palatally displaced lateral incisors. Her facial profile was satisfactory, but 3.5 mm of maxillary anterior crowding was observed. To correct this crowding, we decided to minimize the use of the conventional fixed orthodontic appliances and employed a less bulky and more aesthetic appliance for applying light continuous force. We determined the final positions of the maxillary teeth via a working model for diagnostic set up and achieved space gaining and alignment with simple Ni-Ti spring and stainless steel round tubes. Tooth alignment was achieved efficiently and aesthetically without the conventional brackets.

전주된 Invar (Fe-35%Ni) 박판 위에 증착된 Cu 박막은 스퍼터 전력량이 증가할수록 증착속도가 증가하였다. Cu/Invar 박판이 Invar 박판보다 면저항 값이 34%로 작았다. Invar 박판 위에 Cu가 증착되면 최대자화와 투자율은 각각 40.3, 65.0 [%] 감소하였다. Cu 박막의 탄성하강강성도, 마찰계수, 피로한계는 각각 45, 0.130, 0.093 이었다. 동적 나노 압침법으로 얻은 Invaar/Cu 박막의 하중-시간-변위 곡선의 가장 큰 차이는 탄성하강강성도(elastic stiffness) 이었다. 미세경도와 나노경도의 실험적 관계식은 $Y[GPa]=9.18{\times}10^{-3}X[Hv]$ 이었다. 나노압침선단의 하중분포를 이차원 선형 및 비선형 유한요소해석을 통하여 1.0 [mN] 의 정적하중을 가한 Cu 박막은 486 [mN] 으로 예측되었다. 이는 표면탐침현미경으로 관찰한 압흔의 변형정도와 유사한 경향을 보였다.

The tetradentate schiff base ligand, N,N'-bis(salicylaldehyde)-m-phenylenediimine has been prepared from salicylaldehyde and m-phenylenediamine by Duff-reaction. The schiff base ligand has been reacted with Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), and Zn(II) to form new complexes; Cu(II)$[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}2H_2O, Ni(II)[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}2H_2O, Co(III)[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}2H_2O and Zn(II)2[C_{20}H_{14}O_2N_2]{\cdot}4H_2O$. It seems to be that the Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) complexes have hexacoordinated configuration with the schiff base and two molecules of water, while Zn(II) complex has tetracoordinated configuration with the schiff base and four molecules of water. The mole ratio of tetradentate schiff base ligand to Cu(II), Ni(II) and Co(II) are 1:1 but to Zn(II) is 1:2. These complexes have been identified by visible spectra, infrared spectra, T.G.A. and elemental analysis.

In this paper, the dependence of Ni-silicide properties such as sheet resistance and cross-sectional profile on the dopants have been characterized. There was little dependence of sheet resistance on the used dopants such as As, P, $BF_{2}$ and $B_{11}$ just after RTP (Rapid Thermal Process). However, the silicide properties showed strong dependence on the dopants when thermal treatment was applied after formation of Ni-silicide. $BF_{2}$ implanted sample shows the best stable property, while $B_{11}$ implanted one was thermally unstable. The main reason of the excellent property of $BF_{2}$ sample is believed to be the retardation of Ni diffusion by the flourine.
