Two different methods (Sieve shaker, Elzone particle size analyzer) were used to investigate rice flour particle size obtained by various milling method. Results of Elzone particle size analyzer were more effective than Sieve shaker in determining particle size, and the distribution of particle size of rice flours was affected by the type of the milling methods used. A rice flour, prepared in a Pin mill had a particle size range of $60{\sim}500$ mesh, and 30.38% of the sample was in the particle size range $200{\sim}270$ mesh. A rice flour, prepared in a Colloid mill had a particle size range of $40{\sim}500$ mesh and more of flour particles appeared in the range $140{\sim}200$ mesh than any other particle size. A rice flour, prepared in a Micro mill had a particle size range of $140{\sim}500$ mesh, and 41.62% of the sample was in the particle size range over 500 mesh. A rife flour, prepared in a Jet mill had a finer flour particle size was over the particle size range 500 mesh. The finer rice flour gave the highest L value and the lowest a value. The wet-milled flour particles were observed as a cluster of starch granules and the particles of rice flour (dry-milling) were observed as fragment of rice grains. Scanning Electron Photomicrographs revealed that visual differences in structure between milling methods, and similar results with Elzone particle size analyzer method in particle size.

Titanium carbides are widely used for cutting tools and grinding wheels, because of their superior physical properties such as high melting temperature, high hardness, high wear resistance, good thermal conductivity and excellent thermal shock resistance. The common synthesizing method for the titanium carbide powders is carbo-thermal reduction from the mixtures of titanium oxide($TiO_2$) and carbon black. The purpose of the present research is to fabricate nano TiC powders using titanium salt and titanium hydride by the mechanochemical process(MCP). The initial elements used in this experiment are liquid $TiCl_4$(99.9%), $TiH_2$(99.9%) and active carbon(<$32{\mu}m$, 99.9%). Mg powders were added to the $TiCl_4$ solution in order to induce the reaction with Cl-. The weight ratios of the carbon and Mg powders were theoretically calculated. The TiC and $MgCl_2$ powders were milled in the planetary milling jar for 10 hours. The 40 nm TiC powders were fabricated by wet milling for 4 hours from the $TiCl_4$+C+Mg solution, and 300 nm TiC particles were obtained by using titanium hydride.

The physicochemical properties of rice flours which were obtained by dry milling(blade, hammer, test and micro mill) and wet & dry milling (roller & micro mill) were investigated. The resulting flour particle sizes were reduced in the order that of blade, hammer, test, micro and roller & micro mill. Scanning electron microscopic examination showed that the starch granules were freed from the imbedding matrix as the particles became finer. The test-milled flour had the hightest levels of starch damage, maltose value and hot-water soluble amylose content, and the blade-milled flour showed the lowest levels. Amylograph viscosity and gelatinization temperature of the flours decreased as the particles became finer, and the addition of $Hg^{+2}$ increased the peak viscosity of the dry-milled flour pastes, whereas the wet & dry-milled flour did not show any changes. The blue values and ${\lambda}$max values of the iodine complex of the cold-water extractable ${\alpha}-D-glucan$ from flours were in the range of 0.023-0.029 and 518-522nm, respectively, indicating these materials were shown to be mainly composed of amylopectin-like polymer.

In this study, the effect of delignification degree of Korean white pine wood on fibrillation efficiency by wet disk-milling (WDM) and the properties of thus-obtained microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) were investigated. The effect on the tensile properties of nanopaper was also investigated. The delignification degree was adjusted by repeating 'Wise' method using sodium chlorite and acetic acid. The increase in delignification degree improved fibrillation efficiency, showing the smaller nanofiber dimension at the shorter WDM time. The filtration time of MFC water suspension was increased by the increase of WDM cycles. Tensile strength and elastic modulus of the nanopaper were increased by increasing delignification degree and disk-milling cycles.

As a case study on aspect ratio behavior, Kaolin, zeolite, TiO₂, pozzolan and diatomaceous earth minerals are investigated using wet milling with 0.3 mm media. The grinding process using small media of 0.3 pai is suitable for current work processing applications. Primary particles with average particle size distribution D₅₀, ~6 ㎛ are shifted to submicron size, D₅₀ ~0.6 ㎛ after grinding. Grinding of particles is characterized by various size parameters such as sphericity as geometric shape, equivalent diameter, and average particle size distribution. Herein, we systematically provide an overview of factors affecting the primary particle size reduction. Energy consumption for grinding is determined using classical grinding laws, including Rittinger's and Kick's laws. Submicron size is obtained at maximum frictional shear stress. Alterations in properties of wettability, heat resistance, thermal conductivity, and adhesion increase with increasing particle surface area. In the comparison of the aspect ratio of the submicron powder, the air heat conductivity and the total heat release amount increase 68 % and 2 times, respectively.

This study investigated the physicochemical properties of three different types of rice flour prepared via dry and wet milling. The powder, soft, and hard-types of rice flour were Suwon No. 542, Suwon No. 541, and Unbong No. 30, respectively. The analysis of the proximate compositions of the different types of rice flour showed that their moisture content was 7.03~7.99%, their crude protein was 7.94~8.35%, their crude lipid was 0.71~1.49% and their crude ash was 0.25~0.82%. For the Hunter's color values, the L value was highest in the wet-milled rice flour, the a value was highest in the dry-milled rice flour, and the b value was highest in the dry-milled rice flour. All the samples showed distinctive rice starch particles in the particle analysis using scanning electron microscope. The dry-milled rice flour showed the greatest amount of irregular particles and the coarsest texture. The water absorption and water solubility indices were higher in the wet-milled soft- and hard-type rice flour. The crystallinities of the samples by X-ray diffractography were all A-type, but the crystallinity of the dry-milled hard-type rice flour was higher in diffraction degree. For the amylogram properties, the wet-milled soft-type rice flour showed the highest maximum viscosity, breakdown and setback. In the meanwhile, the dry-milled soft-type rice flour showed the highest initial pasting temperature, onset, peak, and end temperatures despite of the reverse enthalpy.

Newly harvested milled rice and stored milled rice for 2 years were steeped at the elevated temperatures of 40, 50, and 60℃ for 2hr, and physicochemical properties of the wet-milled rice flour were investigated. The lightness of rice flour was slightly higher in the newly harvested milled-rice, while yellowness was higher in the stored milled rice. For both newly harvested and stored milled rice, WAI, WSI, and gel consistency increased as steeping temperature increased. The amylograph pasting properties indicated that increasing steeping temperature increased peak viscosity. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results of the rice flour showed that increasing steeping temperature increased onset and peak temperatures, with reduced gelatinization enthalphy, suggesting partial annealing occured. Particle size of rice flour from newly harvested milled rice was larger than that from stored milled rice.

Carbon nanotube (CNT)/$Mg_2Ni$ composites were synthesized to enhance the hydrogen storage properties. The emphasis was made on the effect of different shortening methods of CNTs on the open-tip structure and the resulting properties. The use of open CNTs as a starting material resulted in an enhanced hydrogen properties of CNT/$Mg_2Ni$ composites. Among the employed methods for the shortening of CNTs, wet milling using ethanol was the most efficient, while ultrasonic acid treatment or thermal decomposition resulted in a less hydrogen storage capacity.

The key concept of nanopowder agglomerate sintering (NAS) is to enhance material transport by controlling the powder interface volume of nanopowder agglomerates. Using this concept, we developed a new approach to full density processing for the fabrication of pure iron nanomaterial using Fe nanopowder agglomerates from oxide powders. Full density processing of pure iron nanopowders was introduced in which the powder interface volume is manipulated in order to control the densification process and its corresponding microstructures. The full density sintering behavior of Fe nanopowders optimally size-controlled by wet-milling treatment was discussed in terms of densification process and microstructures.

The PZT(KP12) powder was synthesized by sintering at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs and wet milling for 24 hrs. The PZT composite mixed with PVdF was fabricated into bulk, sheet, and plate type and the characteristics of three types were estimated. The bulk type which has PZT volume percent of 70 showed the best piezoelectric constant. Dielectric constant increased exponentially as an increase of PZT volume percent. The figure of merit of bulk and plate type was better than pure PZT over PZT volume percent of 50.
