The pure Ti is taken annealing process for one hour at 90$0^{\circ}C$. The pure Ti is sufficient for ASTM B348 Grade2. The rolling mill roll the Ti-8Ta-3Nb(wt%) which became vacuum melting in arc furnace until the length is about 45mm and the thickness is about 6.05mm. Then it is made 6mm$\times$6mm$\times$44mm by wire cutting with EDM and it is made ∮ 6mm by rough cutting with the general purpose lathe. The machining accuracy of implant parts in the dental and medical science are decided by dimension, shpe, straightness, surface roughness. It is difficult to cut for the Ti alloy. It is caused problems of straight degree and surface roughness to the Ti alloy have many cases which length is smaller than diameter in cutting. Total 24 specimens different kind of 4 alloies are used in experiment to gain a cutting property. According to the cutting velocity, cutting depth, cutting temperature, feed and clearance angle experiments are performed. Conclusively it is expected that cutting depth of 0.5mm, feed velocity of 0.07mm/rev and cutting velocity of 80m/min could make a suitable result.

A new titanium based alloy, Ti-10Ta-10Nb, has designed to examine the improved mechanical properties and biocompatibility. A specimen of titanium alloy was melted in a consumable vacuum arc furnace and homogenized at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. The effect of hot rolling on microstructure was estimated after rolling at $400^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ respectively. Surface of melted alloy by consumable vacuum arc melting was consisted of rough surface and it was changed to sound surface by coating of $ZrO_2$ slurry on copper mold surface. The hardness of Ti-10Ta-10Nb alloy increased with the amount of${\alpha}+{\beta}$ phase. Ti-10Ta-10Nb alloy showed $Widmanst{\"{a}}ten$ structure by hot rolling at $800^{\circ}C$ and in the rolling ${\beta}-region$ was negligible effects on microstructure refining.

Zintl phase Mg₃Sb₂ is a promising thermoelectric material in medium to high temperature range due to its low band gap energy and characteristic electron-crystal phonon-glass behavior. P-type Mg₃Sb₂ has conventionally exhibited lower thermoelectric properties compared to its n-type counterparts, which have poor electrical conductivity. To address these problems, a small amount of Sn doping was considered in this alloy system. P-type Mg₃Sb₂ was synthesized by controlled melting, pulverizing, and subsequent vacuum hot pressing (VHP) method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to investigate phases and microstructure development during the process. Single phase Mg₃Sb₂ was successfully formed when 16 at.% of Mg was excessively added to the system. Nominal compositions of Mg_3.8Sb_2-xSn_x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.008) were considered in this study. Thermoelectric properties were evaluated in terms of Seebeck coefficient, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity. A peak ZT value ≈ 0.32 was found for the specimen Mg_3.8Sb_1.994Sn_0.006 at 873 K, showing an improved ZT value compared to intrinsic one. Transport properties were also evaluated and discussed.

Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED)에 사용되는 유기재료 N,N.-diphenyl-N,N.-bis(1-naphthyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4"-diamine(NPB)의 상전이 특성을 여러 진공도에서 평가하였다. 압력, 온도제어가 가능한 진공시스템을 사용하여 여러 진공도에서 NPB의 상전이 온도를 측정하였고, 본 연구에 사용된 진공시스템의 신뢰성을 검증하기 위해 상압에서 측정한 NPB의 melting temperature를 Differential Scanning Calorimetry(DSC) data와 비교하였다. 또한 각 압력($10^{-7}{\sim}760Torr$)에서 측정한 상전이 온도를 바탕으로 최종 결과물인 NPB의 Phase diagram을 얻어냄으로써 일정 압력, 일정 온도에서의 NPB의 상거동을 예측할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 기존의 DSC열분석으로는 확인하기 어려웠던 진공에서의 유기재료의 상전이를 관측하였다는데 큰 의미가 있다. 향후, 이러한 방법을 활용한 진공에서의 유기재료의 상전이 특성 관측은 유기재료를 이용한 진공 증착공정방법의 최적화와, 다양한 유기재료의 열안정성 특성 파악에 도움이 될 것으로 기대가 된다.

Sublimatographic study on the method of test for sulfur in the petroleum and rubber products was as following results: (1) The relation between the heating temperature$(t_h)$ and the vacuum condensing point(V.C.P.) of sulfur at different degree of vacuum appeared as Fig.4. The results were in good agreement with those expected from the $t_h-V.C.P$ curves of sublimatographic separation of sulfur. (2) The relation between the degree of vacuum and the V.C.P. at different heating temperature of sulfur appeared as follows; $$tv.c.p.=\alpha+{\beta}logP_{va}$$ (3) The V.C.P of sulfur could be physical property comparing with melting point and boiling point. (4) The relation between the V.C.P. and the quantity of sublimation of sulfur becomes quantitative as Fig.7.

Non-molding and welding line happen by the assembly of gas at the connector terminal. There is not good phenomenon of burr by increasing the over injection pressure, the temperatures of die and resin to prevent from them. Therefore, the connector mold to apply the vacuum molding system is developed in this study. The vacuum pressure is controlled systematically with the optimum conditions in the important ingredients of injection molding that are the temperatures of melting resin and die and cooling condition. The badness in charging is cleared by making a vacuum to non-charging part of the deep bottom part of each cavity. And the vacuum system to reduce the cycle time is applied as the study envelopment of molding work. So, the good product and the productivity improvement can be obtained in this study.

The suitability of pivalic acid was confirmed as a secondary temperature standard material. Triple-point cells of pivalic acid were obtained by using combined process of vacuum distillation with zone refining. A detailed description of the purification process was given. The melting curves were used as criteria for determination of purities of pivalic acid. Triple points of these cells with purity of 99.9997% were measured to be $35.956\pm 0.003^{\circ}C$ by using the melting plateau curves. Thus the triple point cells of pivalic acid appear to be able to use for the calibration of thermistor thermometers with moderate precision.

Binary skutterudite $CoSb_3$ compounds were prepared by the encapsulated induction melting (EIM) process, and their thermoelectric, microstructural and mechanical properties were examined. Single-phase ${\delta}-CoSb_3$ was successfully produced by the EIM and subsequent heat treatment at 773 K-873 K for 24 hours in vacuum. Seebeck coefficient increased with increasing heat treatment temperature up to 673 K, showing the positive signs in the range of measuring temperature. However, the samples heat-treated at 773 K-873 K showed negative Seebeck coefficient from room temperature to 400 K, while it showed positive signs above 400 K. Electrical resistivity decreased with increasing temperature, showing typical semiconducting conductivity. Thermal conductivity decreased drastically with increasing heat-treatment temperature. This is closely related with the phase transition to ${\delta}-CoSb_3$.

[ $Co_{1-x}Fe_xSb_3$ ] skutterudites were synthesized by encapsulated induction melting and their thermoelectric properties were investigated. Single phase ${\delta}-CoSb_3$ was successfully obtained by the subsequent heat treatment at 773 K for 24 hours in vacuum. However, ${\delta}-CoSb_3$ was decomposed to FeSb2 and Sb when $x{\leq}0.3$, which means that the solubility limit of Fe to Co is x<0.3. The positive signs of Seebeck coefficients for all Fe-doped specimens revealed that Fe atoms acted as p-type dopants by substituting Co atoms. Thermoelectric properties were remarkably enhanced by Fe doping and optimum composition was found to be $Co_{0.7}Fe_{0.3}Sb_3$ in this study.

The main objectives were to investigate the suitability of CaO crucible for melting TiAl alloys and to develop investment mold for investment casting of TiAl alloys. TiAl alloy specimen were prepared by plasma arc furnace under argon atmosphere. After melting of TiAl alloy using CaO crucible, the results showed that there is little contamination of oxygen in the TiAl bulk. Conventional vacuum induction furnaces can be readily adaptable to produce cast parts of TiAl without high skilled techniques. The determination of optical metallography and microhardness profiles in investment cast TiAl alloy rods has allowed the gradation of the relative thermal stability of the oxides examined. The molds used for the present study were $ZrO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, CaO stabilized $ZrO_2$ and $ZrSiO_4$. Even although high temperature of mold preheating, $Al_2O_3$ mold is a promising mold material for investment casting of TiAl alloys in terms of thermal stability, cost and handling strength. It is important to take thermal stability and preheating temperature of mold into consideration for investment casting of TiAl alloys.
