According to the recent tendency that the buildings in the downtown are gradually Manhattanized, the very thick massive concrete is selected as the foundation of architectures. By the way, because this mass concrete cannot be simultaneously pour in a great quantity due to the circumstance at the field, not only the questions on the unification between the concretes pour on the upper layer and the lower layer are presented but also the cracks by the internal force from the difference of hydration exothermic period are occurred, which are pointed out as the problems. Thus, this study performed Mock-up test to apply the hydration heat controlling method of massive concrete for horizontal partition pouring construction to the building sites for the purpose of securing the stability on the cracks by the internal force from the difference of hydration exothermic period on the upper layer and the lower layer of massive concrete and checked the efficiency. As the results of test, in case of setting time difference method by super retarder with 2 layers and 4 layers, the effect that temperature gaps between upper part and lower part were lowered and the possibility of crack occurrence was decreased as the peak time of the heat of hydration became delayed to the latter term could be confirmed.

We have applied mechanical alloying (MA) to get $Mg_2Si$ thermoelectric material with nano-sized grains. An optimal milling and heat treatment conditions to obtain the single phase of $Mg_2Si$ compound with fine microstructure were investigated by X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurement. The $Mg_{66.7}Si_{33.3}$ MA samples ball-milled for $20{\sim}180\;hrs$ exhibit two broad exothermic heat releases around $220^{\circ}C$ and $570^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, MA sample ball-milled far 260 hrs exhibits only a sharp exothermic peak at $230^{\circ}C$ Single phase Mg2Si powder can be obtained by MA of $Mg_{66.7}Si_{33.3}$ mixture for 60 hours and subsequently heated up to $620^{\circ}C$. Sintering of the MA powders was performed in a spark plasma sintering (SPS) machine using graphite dies at $800{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ under 50 MPa. The shrinkage of sintering sample during SPS was significant at about $200^{\circ}C$. All compact bodies have a high relative density above 94% with metallic glare on the surface.

Two new high-nitrogen energetic compounds $ZTO{\cdot}2H_2O$ and $ZTO(phen){\cdot}H_2O$ have been synthesized (where ZTO = 4,4-azo-1,2,4-triazol-5-one and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). The crystal structure, elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy are presented. Compound 1 $ZTO{\cdot}2H_2O$ crystallizes in the orthorhombic crystal system with space group Pnna and compound 2 $ZTO(phen){\cdot}H_2O$ in the triclinic crystal system with space group P-1. In $ZTO(phen){\cdot}H_2O$, there is intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the -NH group of ZTO molecule (as donor) and N atom of phen molecule (as acceptor). Thermal decomposition process is studied by applying the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermo thermogravimetric differential analysis (TG-DTG). The DSC curve shows that there is one exothermic peak in $ZTO{\cdot}2H_2O$ and $ZTO(phen){\cdot}H_2O$, respectively. The critical temperature of thermal explosion ($T_b$) for $ZTO{\cdot}2H_2O$ and $ZTO(phen){\cdot}H_2O$ is $282.21^{\circ}C$ and $195.94^{\circ}C$, respectively.

The fracture toughness and hardness of 62 %$SiO_2-19%ZrO_2-9%Na_2O-10%B_2O_3$(wt%) glass ceramics system were investigated. As a result of DTA study to find crystallization temperature, an exothermic peak near $820^{\circ}C$ was observed. The optimum nucleation temperature and the optimum crystal growth temperature were determined by XRD and SEM analysis, and were approximately $650^{\circ}C$, $840^{\circ}C$ respectively. The fracture toughness of this zirconia glass ceramics was determined by Vickers Indentation Method. The hardness value was not changed with increasing of the heat treatment temperature, but fracture toughness value was increased up to $1.8 MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ at $840^{\circ}C$, with increasing of heat treatment temperature.

(Ba,Sr,Ca)$TiO_3$ powders, which were prepared by sol-gel method using a solution of Ba-, Sr- and Ca-acetate and Ti iso-propoxide, were mixed with organic vehicle and the BSCT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing techniques on high purity alumina substrates. The structural and dielectirc properties were investigated for various $Dy_2O_3$ doping contents. As a result of thermal analysis, the exothermic peak was observed at around 670^{\circ}C $ due to the formation of the polycrystalline perovskite phase. All BSCT thick films, sintered at $1420^{\circ}C$ for 2h, showed the typical XRD patterns of perovskite polycrystalline structure and no pyrochlore phase was observed. The average grain size of the specimens decreased with increasing amount of $Dy_2O_3$. The average grain size and thickness of the BSCT specimens doped with 0.1 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ were approximately $1.9{\mu}m$ and $70{\mu}m$, respectively. The relative dielectric constant decreased and dielectric loss increased with increasing amount of $Dy_2O_3$, the values of the BSCT thick films doped with 0.1 mol% $Dy_2O_3$ were 3697 and 0.4% at 1 kHz, respectively. The leakage current densities in all BSCT thick films were less than $10^{-9}A/cm^2$ at the applied electric field range of 0-20 kV/cm.

The glass-ceramics was prepared with the scoria(CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 system) of the locally occurring volcanic ejecta containing 10-13w/o of (FeO＋Fe2O3) by melting at 140$0^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours and thermally treated for nucleation and crystallization. The sucrose was added to the scoria to adjust the Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio during the melting process. The addition of 1-2w/o of sucrose showed the glass-ceramics body with the finest particle developed and dispersed over the entire range. It is concluded that the impurity content of iron oxide and titanium oxide play the most-influencial effect on the crystallization. When 1-2w/o of sucrose was added to the scoria, the value of Fe2+/Fe3+ ratio was 0.93-1.32 and showed the best result of crystallization. The nucleation temperature and time were calculated by the measurements of exothermic peak temperatures of DTA for quenched and thermally treated glasses. The nucleation temperature of scoria glass without the addition of sucrose was estimated as 75$0^{\circ}C$, but the addition of sucrose by 2w/o showed the nucleation temperature 6$25^{\circ}C$. The nucleation time was calculated with the same DTA curves. The nucleation times estimated were about 150min. for both of glasses without and with sucrose added. Finally, the activation energies for crystallization were calculated with the DTA data. The calculated activation energies were 143 Kcal/mole for the glass without addition of sucrose and 90Kcal/mole, 87Kcal/mole, 85Kcal/mole and 71Kcal/mole for the glasses of 1w/o, 2w/o, 3w/o and 4w/o addition respectively.

Tertbutylperoxymaleate is the one of the organic peroxides used as a raw material of initiator formulations of artificial marble manufacturing. In this study, the thermal decomposition characteristic of TBPM was evaluated using the differential scanning calorimeter in the air and nitrogen circumstance. Regardless of the reaction atmosphere, TBPM showed the exothermic peak due to the drastic decomposition reaction below 130 ℃. The activation energy estimated by dynamic methods had a range of 203~217 kJ/mol and that estimated by model-free analysis method had a range of 118~232 kJ/mol with a thermal conversion. And the ADT₂₄, the temperature that lead to the maximum heating rate within 24 hours, was evaluated as (80~95) ℃ using the estimated activation energy.

For clearing the cause of firing due to the tacking on the surface of phenolic resin, this paper describes the analysis through a couple of methods ; FT-IR; DTA; photograph analysis, etc. Phenolic resin has been widely employed as a case of low voltage appliances. In the experiment it was confirmed that its surface was carbonized and graphitized by the external fire. In the FT-IR test a graphite specimen thermally treated at $150[^{\circ}C]$ showed the 2 different IR absorption peaks at $1,730[cm^{-1}]\;and\;1,680[cm^{-1}]$. In normal phenolic resin, the exothermic peak appeared at $450[^{\circ}C]$, while in graphite specimen, it appeared at $610[^{\circ}C]$ in DTA test. From the results, the electrical fire causes could be cleared and it is expected to protect the human life and property from the electrical fire by using the important data.

The purpose of this study was performed as model study using four animals to investigate the correction between the changes in Differential Scanning Calorimetry thermogram of muscle proteins during storage and meat freshness. M. longissimus dorsi of pork was obtained immediately after slaughter and chilled/stored at either $-2^{\circ}C$ or $25^{\circ}C$ for up to 96 h for analyses. DSC thermograms were determined and compared with pH values, ATP-related compounds, K-values, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) levels, bacterial counts and electrophoretic behavior. Changes in pH, bacterial counts, VBN and K-values were associated with increased storage temperature and time. The levels of pH values, bacterial counts, VBN and K-values of pork samples stored at $25^{\circ}C$ were higher than those of the pork samples stored at $-2^{\circ}C$. ATP concentration decreased faster in samples stored at $25^{\circ}C$. Only IMP increased in samples stored at $-2^{\circ}C$, whereas the concentration of hypoxanthine and inosine increased in samples stored at $25^{\circ}C$. One exothermic peak and two endothermic peaks appeared on the thermograms of pork stored at either temperature. Lower transition temperature of myosin, sarcoplasmic protein and actin peaks were observed. The freshness parameters of K-value, VBN and hypoxanthine showed highly negative correlations (-0.742- -0.9980) to the changes in transition temperature. Therefore, the shift temperature on DSC thermogram can be used as an indicator of the freshness parameters of meat.

The effects of relative humidity on the properties of the porous $ZrO_2$ ceramics were investigated in terms of the curing behavior of phenolic resin as a binder. The $ZrO_2$ powders containing 5wt% of phenolic resin were conditioned in a consistent chamber condition at a temperature of $50^{\circ}C$ and different humidity levels (25, 50, 75, and 95%) for 1 h. The exposure of humid atmosphere caused changes of density and microstructure in the green bodies. The higher level the powders were exposed to the humid atmosphere, the lower green density was obtained and the more irregular microstructure was observed due to aggregation by the curing of phenolic resin. After firing, the porosity of specimens has risen from 35.7% to 38.1% and Young's modulus has declined in response to the variation of green density. These results could be explained by the degree of resin cure which was associated with the area under the exothermic peak enclosed by a baseline of DSC thermogram curve. Also, the curing behavior of phenolic resin according to relative humidity has been confirmed by decrease of ether groups which have interacted with the phenolic-OH group and the hexamine as a curing agent. Consequently, it could be demonstrated that increase the relative humidity during fabrication of porous $ZrO_2$ diminished the compaction and properties of specimens after firing owing to curing of phenolic resin.
