The effects of $B_2O_3$ addition on the low-temperature sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ ceramic system were investigated. Highly dense samples were obtained at the sintering temperatures below $900^{\circ}C$. The $Q{\times}f_o$ values were determined by the microstructures and sintering shrinkages which are affected by the amount of $B_2O_3$ and sintering temperature. Temperature coefficient of resonance frequency($T_f$) changes to a positive value with increasing the amount of $B_2O_3$ due to the increased amount of rutile phase which is one of the reaction products between $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ and $B_2O_3$. For $6.19 moi.{\%}B_2O_3$-added $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ system, it exhibits ${\epsilon}_r$ = 23.5, $Q{\times}f_o$ = 53,000 GHz, and $T_f$ = 0 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ when sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 5 h.

$TiO_2$ photocatalyst powders were prepared by chlorination method and sol-gel method. Specific surface area and crystalline (i.e., anatase and rutile) of the catalyst varied depending on manufacture conditions and method. TTIP-sol photocatalyst had higher methylene blue (MB) decomposition characteristics than photocatalyst from chlorination method and TBOT-sol. MB removal efficiency from aqueous solution with TTIP-sol photocatalyst was over 90%. Experimental results showed that the $TiO_2$ photocatalyst with a single anatase phase and a large specific surface area had high decomposition characteristics of organic materials.

The photocatalyst of $TiO_2$ coated on a fly ash composites (TCF) was prepared from precipitant dropping method to remove the acetaldehyde by photocatalytic reaction. The TCF were characterized by crystal aize, crystal structure and specific surface area. The photodegradation of acetaldehyde has been investigated using a UV-illuminated fixed photocatalytic reactor with TCF catalyst and P-25 catalyst in gas phase. The effect of photodegradation reaction conditions, such as initial concentration of acetaldehyde, concentration of oxidant in mixed gas and the light intensity on the photodegradation of acetaldehyde were investigated. P-25 catalyst showed the highest photodegradation of acetaldehyde and anatase $TiO_2$ coated TCF showed higher decomposition rate than rutile coated TCF. The photodegradation rate of acetaldehyde increased with the decrease of flow rate, initial concentration of acetaldehyde ($C_i$) and water vapor, however, it was increased with the increas of UV light intensity. The optimum conditions were weight of TCF=10 g, flow rate=50 ml/min $C_i$=100 ppm, concentration of oxygen=20%, concentration of water vapor=100 ppm.

The photocatalyst $TiO_2$ thin film was made from titanium (IV) isopropoxide, ethanol, and HCl by sol-gel method. The surface observation by SEM showed the sample that was coated 5 times at $500^{\circ}C$ had good properties. The component ratio, in atom% of O : Ti by EDX analysis, of 61 : 39 by spin coating was superior than dip coating. It was found that crystal structure changed from anatase phase to rutile phase as a function of the temperature of thin film fabrication, and this was measured by XRD. The photolysis efficiency of total organic compounds (TOC) by lighting UV beam on $TiO_2$ thin film showed 20%~65% within 1 h, and decreased slowly thereafter.

Thermal degradation behavior of a $WO_3-TiO_2$ monolithic catalyst was investigated in terms of structural, morphological, and physico-chemical analyses. The catalyst with 4 wt.% $WO_3$ contents were prepared by a wet-impregnation method, and a durability test of the catalysts were performed in a temperature range between $400^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. An increase of thermal stress decreased the specific surface area, which was caused by grain growth and agglomeration of the catalyst particles. The phase transition from anatase to rutile occurred at around $800^{\circ}C$ and a decrease in the Brønsted acid sites was confirmed by structural analysis and physico-chemical analysis. A change in Brønsted acidity can affect to the catalytic efficiency; therefore, the thermal degradation behavior of the $WO_3-TiO_2$ catalyst could be explained by the transition to a stable rutile phase of $TiO_2$ and the decrease of specific surface area in the SCR catalyst.

The reaction morphology was investigated depending on the amounts of HCl and $NH_4OH$, and the effect of pH was studied on the preparation of $TiO_2$ nanopowders. $TiO_2$ nanopowder was prepared using a titanium tetra-isopropoxide. Subsequently, the effect of pH on the characteristics of the prepared $TiO_2$ nanopowder was evaluated depending on the amounts of the catalysts such as HCl and $NH_4OH$. The morphology and phase transformation of $TiO_2$ powder prepared by hydrolysis of titanium tetra-isopropoxide were strongly influenced by the presence of the catalysts. In the case of using $NH_4OH$, the morphology of the $TiO_2$ powder exhibited powder form. For the HCl catalyst, it showed bulk or granule form. The phase transformations of amorphous $Ti(OH)_4$ to anatase $TiO_2$ and the anatase to rutile was significantly influenced by the kind and amount of thecatalysts.

The samples were synthesized by using a solid state reaction. The X-ray diffraction pattern for $Ti_{0.96}Co_{0.02}Fe_{0.02}O_2$ showed a pure rutile phase with tetragonal structures. Mixtures of the proper proportions of the elements sealed in evacuated quartz ampoule were heated at $870{\sim}930^{\circ}C$ for one day and then slowly cooled down to room temperature at a rate of $10^{\circ}C/h$. In order to obtain single phase material, it was necessary to grind the sample after the first firing and to press the powders into pellets before annealing them for a second time in evacuated and sealed quartz ampoule. Magnetic properties have been investigated using the vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM). Room temperature magnetic hysteresis(M-H) curve showed an obvious ferromagnetic behavior and the magnetic moment per Fe atom under the applied of 0.8T was estimated to be about $1.3{\mu}_B/CoFe$. But the magnetic moment per Fe atom under the applied of 0.8T was estimated to be about $0.02{\mu}_B/CoFe$ without Ti-getter.

$TiO_2$ thin films were deposited on si wafer and glass substrates by rf magnetron sputtering. The films were coated under argon atmosphere at different working pressures: 3mTorr, 5mTorr, 7mTorr, 10mTorr. The films were annealed at $550^{\circ}C$ for 5h after deposition. Film structures were analyzed with XRD, As the increase of working pressure, $TiO_2$ films have been good crystallinity. At 3mTorr and 5mTorr, the films were observed in rutile phase and anatase phase.

BaO-TiO$_2$계의 TiO$_2$-rich 조성영역에 대한 상평형 관계를 완전 고상 반응법을 통하여 재평가하였다. 출발 시료로는 이 계의 end-member인 BaO와 TiO$_2$(rutile)를 이용하였다. 각 시료들은 대기 중에서 800~120$0^{\circ}C$의 온도구간에서 선택적으로 열처리되었다. 열처리된 시편들은 상온까지 급냉 처리되었으며, 상 분석은 X-ray 회절 분석을 통하여 이루어졌다. 연구결과에서 BaTi$_2$O$_{5}$(1:2)상과 BaTi$_{5}$O$_{11}$(1:5)상이 저온에서의 고상 반응을 통해서도 쉽게 형성될 수 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 각 저온 상들의 불변 반응 온도를 열처리 온도에 따른 상 분석을 통하여 확인할 수 있었다.

Two kinds of CNT/TiO2 composite photocatalysts were synthesized with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and titanium(IV) n-butoxide (TNB) by a MCPBA oxidation method. Since MWCNTs had charge transfer and semiconducting, the CNT/TiO2 composite shows a good photo-degradation activity. The XRD patterns reveal that only anatase phase can be identified for MCT composite, but the HMCT composite synthesized with HCl treatment was observed the mixed phase of anatase and rutile. The EDX spectra were shown the presence as major elements of Ti with strong peaks. From the SEM results, the sample MCT and HMCT synthesized by the thermal decomposition with TNB show a homogenous sample with only individual MWCNTs covered with TiO2 without any jam-like aggregates between CNTs and TiO2. From the photocatalytic results, we could be suggested that the excellent activity of the CNT/TiO2 composites for organic dye and UV irradiation time could be attributed to combination effects between TiO2 and MWCNTs with plausible photodegradation mechanism.
