Tensile and low cycle fatigue tests on prior cold worked 3l6L stainless steel were carried out at various temperatures ftom room temperature to 650$^{\circ}C$. Fatigue resistance was decreased with increasing temperature and decreasing strain rate. Cyclic plastic deformation, creep, oxidation and interactions with each other are thought to be responsible for the reduction in fatigue resistance. Currently favored life prediction models were examined and it was found that it is important to select a proper life prediction parameter since stress-strain relation strongly depends on temperature. A phenomenological life prediction model was proposed to account for the influence of temperature on fatigue life and assessed by comparing with experimental result. LCF failure mechanism was investigated by observing fracture surfaces of LCF failed specimens with SEM.

In this study, a catalytic oxidation-heat recovery system was designed that can remove unreacted with a concentration of about 1% to 6% in the exhaust gas of hydrogen fuel cells and recover heat to ensure safety in the hydrogen economy. The safety system was devised by filling hydrogen oxidation catalysts at room temperature that can remove unreacted hydrogen without any energy source, and an exhaust-heat recovery device was integrated to efficiently recover the heat released from the oxidation reaction. Through CFD analysis, variations in pressure and fluid within the system were shown depending on the filling conditions of the hydrogen oxidation system. In addition, it was found that waste heat could be recovered by optimizing the temperature of the exhaust gas, flow rate, and pressure conditions within the heat recovery system and securing hot water above 40 ℃ by utilizing the exhaust gas oxidation heat source above 300 ℃. Through this study, it was possible to confirm the potential of utilizing hydrogen processes, which are applied in small to medium-sized systems such as hydrogen fuel cells, as a safety system by evaluating them at a pilot scale. Additionally, it could be a safety guideline for responding to unexpected hydrogen safety accidents through further pilot-scale studies.

Structural and mechanical effects of the dynamical precipitation in two copper-base alloys have been investigated over a wide range of deformation temperatures. Basing upon the information gained during the experiment, also some general conclusion may be formulated. A one concerns the nature of dynamic precipitation(DP). Under this term it is commonly understood decomposition of a supersaturated solid solution during plastic straining. The process may, however, proceed in two different ways. It may be a homogeneous one from the point of view of distribution and morphological aspect of particles or it may lead to substantial difference in shape, size and particles distribution. The effect is controlled by the mode of deformation. Hence it seems to be reasonable to distinguish DP during homogeneous deformation from that which takes place in heterogeneously deformed alloy. In the first case the process can be analyzed solely in terms of particle-dislocation-particle interrelation. Much more complex problem we are facing in heterogeneously deforming alloy. Deformation bands and specific arrangement of dislocations in form of pile-ups at grain boundaries generate additional driving force and additional nucleation sites for precipitation. Along with heterogeneous precipitation, there is a homogeneous precipitation in areas between bands of coarse slip which also deform but at much smaller rate. This form of decomposition is responsible for a specially high hardening rate during high temperature straining and for thermally stable product of the decomposition of alloy.

We evaluate the change in defects in the oxidized SiO2 grown on 4H-SiC (0001) by plasma assisted oxidation, by comparing with that of conventional thermal oxide. In order to investigate the changes in the electronic structure and electrical characteristics of the interfacial reaction between the thin SiO2 and SiC, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), DFT calculation and electrical measurements were carried out. We observed that the direct plasma oxide grown at the room temperature and rapid processing time (300 s) has enhanced electrical characteristics (frequency dispersion, hysteresis and interface trap density) than conventional thermal oxide and suppressed interfacial defect state. The decrease in defect state in conduction band edge and stress-induced leakage current (SILC) clearly indicate that plasma oxidation process improves SiO2 quality due to the reduced transition layer and energetically most stable interfacial state between SiO2/SiC controlled by the interstitial C.

The quality of Gangjung added with detoxified stem bark of Rhus verniciflua (RVSB) extract ($0{\sim}7%$, w/w) during room temperature storage ($25^{\circ}C$, 60 days) was investigated. The moisture content of Gangjung slightly decreased as the storage period increased, especially Gangjung at concentrations between $0{\sim}1%$, $3{\sim}5%$, and 7% decreased after 30, 40 and 50 days of storage, respectively. No significant differences in the hardness were found among the control and experimental samples. However, the peak number of Gangjung containing detoxified RVSB extract at concentrations of $0{\sim}3%$ significantly decreased after 60 days of storage, while that of Gangjung with 5% and 7% addition were not changed during storage. The acid, peroxide and TBA values of Gangjung increased as the storage period increased but the acid value was significantly lower for the Gangjung prepared with 7% (w/w) detoxified RVSB extract after 40 days of storage. Moreover, from 40 to 60 days of room temperature storage, peroxide value significantly decreased as the concentrations of detoxified RVSB extract increased and TBA value significantly decreased when the addition of detoxified RVSB extract was over 3% (w/w). These results suggest that the physical texture of Gangjung improved and lipid oxidation was reduced by the addition of detoxified RVSB extract.

Under pseudo-first order conditions, the monomeric species of Cr(VI) was found to be kinetically active in the absence of phenanthroline (phen) whereas in the phen-promoted path, the Cr(VI)-phen complex undergoes a nucleophilic attack by etane-1,2-diol to form a ternary complex which subsequently experience a redox decomposition leading to hydroxy ethanal and Cr(III)-phen complex. The effect of the cationic surfactant (CPC), anionic surfactant (SDS) and neutral surfactant (TX-100) on the unpromoted and phen-promoted path have been studied. Micellar effects have been explained by considering the preferential partitioning of reactants between the micellar and aqueous phase. Combination of TX-100 and phenanthroline will be the ideal for chromic acid oxidation of ethane-1,2-diol in aqueous media.

Two simple and sensitive spectrophotometric methods were developed for the determination of carbocisteine, penicillamine, ethionamide and thioctic acid in bulk and in their pharmaceutical preparations using alkaline potassium permanganate as an oxidizing agent. The first one involves determination of ethionamide and thioctic acid by spectrophotometric investigation of the oxidation reaction of the two drugs. The second method involves determination of carbocisteine and penicillamine by kinetic studies of the oxidation reaction of these two drugs at room temperature for a fixed time of 20 minutes. The absorbance of the colored manganate ions was measured at 610 nm in both methods. 1-10 ${\mu}$g/mL of ethionamide and thioctic acid could be etermined by the spectrophotometric method with detection limits of 0.11 and 0.089 ${\mu}$g/mL for the two drugs respectively. 2-10 ${\mu}$g/mL of carbocisteine and penicillamine could be determined by the kinetic method with detection limits of 0.14 and 0.21 ${\mu}$g/mL respectively. The two methods were successfully applied for the determination of these drugs in their dosage forms.

We report a top-down approach based on atomic force microscopy (AFM) local anodic oxidation for the fabrication of the nano-pattern field effect transistors (FETs). AFM anodic oxidation is relatively a simple process in atmosphere at room temperature but it still can result in patterns with a high spatial resolution, and compatibility with conventional silicon CMOS process. In this work, we study nano-pattern FETs for various cross-bar distance value D, from ${\sim}0.5\;{\mu}m$ to $1\;{\mu}m$. We compare the optical characteristics of the patterned FETs and of the reference FETs based on both 2-dimensional simulation and experimental results for the wavelength from 100 nm to 900 nm. The simulated the drain current of the nano-patterned FETs shows significantly higher value incident the reference FETs from ${\sim}1.7\;{\times}\;10^{-6}A$ to ${\sim}2.3\;{\times}\;10^{-6}A$ in the infrared range. The fabricated surface texturing of photo-transistors may be applied for high-efficiency photovoltaic devices.

Polycarbosilane was synthesized by the Kumada rearrangement of polydimethylsilane in the presence of zeolite (ZSM-5) as a catalyst at $350^{\circ}C$. The prepared polycarbosilane had very low molecular weight ($M_w=500$), so that it was not suitable to fabricate SiC fiber by melt spinning. Further polymerization of PCS was conducted around $400^{\circ}C$ to obtain spinnable polycarbosilane. After polymerization, the polycarbosilanes were isolated by distillation according to the molecular weight distributions. The PCS with a controlled molecular weight distribution was spun into continuous polycarbosilane green fibers. The PCS green fiber was successfully transformed into silicon oxycarbide fiber. The room temperature strength of the SiC fiber was around 1.5 - 1.8 GPa. The oxidation behavior and the tensile strength after oxidation were also evaluated.

In the previous work(Kim et al, 1973), the quality of sun-dried Alaska pollack, Theragra chalch-ogramma, was discussed in the aspect of non-enzymatic discoloration as a function of relative humidity during storage at room temperature($20^{\circ}C$). In this paper, sun-dried squid, Ommastrephes steam pacificus was investigated at the same aspect mentioned above. Fresh squid from the whole sale market was dressed, filleted, dried for 48 hours in the open air and finally stored in the humidistat chamber. Lipid oxidation ana development of non-enzymatic browning were tested by the same methods described in the previous paper. The TBA value showed a maximum peak on 30 day storage, hereafter tended to decrease gradually. The rate of browning, however, in water soluble fraction as well as in chloroform-methanol fraction was lower at 0.34 to 0.45 water activity than at any other case, and propagation of lipid oxidation was also diminished at the above level of water activity. From the results, it is recognized that storage at Aw=0.34 to 0.45 provides higher quality stability for sun-dried squid.
