The literature often mentions the hardness of water in dampening solutions as possible source of problem. In most literature describes that the water hardness affects print quality. However water hardness affects not only print quality, but also emulsification of ink and dampening solution. Therefore the purpose of this study was to determine if water hardness actually affects the emulsification rate of dampening solution and ink. And this study for the factors determining the emulsion velocity, we have measured water pick-up and calculated emulsion velocity constant 'k' and activation energy.

The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of steaming pressure (0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 bar), steaming time (5, 10, and 15 min), and storage period on Hardness, hardness rate constant and sensory characteristics of Baeksulgi prepared with optimum formula (rice new 100%, water 60%, salt 1.5%, and sugar 15%). Although the hardness was slowly increased during storage period from 0 hr to 8 hr and sharply increased after 12 hr of storage in case of 0.5 bay steam pressure, it was slowly increased after 12 hr storage time in case of steaming pressure at 1.0 ban Hardness rate constant of Baeksulgi was $0.217{\sim}0.184hr^{-1}$ at range of steaming time for $8{\sim}10$ min and pressure at $0.8{\sim}1.0$ bar which was relatively low. Hardness and elasticity of sensory evaluation were increased with the increases in steaming pressure, steaming time, and storage period but cohesiveness was decreased The highest overall preference was steaming pressure at 10 bar, steaming time for 10 min, and storage period for 12 hr. In conclusion, steaming pressure, steaming tim, and storage period influenced Baeksulgi quality such as hardness and sensory characteristics.

Specimens of stainless steel reactor internals were irradiated with 240 keV protons and 6 MeV Xe ions at room temperature. Nanoindentation constant stiffness measurement tests were carried out to study the hardness variations. An irradiation hardening effect was observed in proton- and Xe-irradiated specimens and more irradiation damage causes a larger hardness increment. The Nix-Gao model was used to extract the bulk-equivalent hardness of irradiation-damaged region and critical indentation depth. A different hardening level under H and Xe irradiation was obtained and the discrepancies of displacement damage rate and ion species may be the probable reasons. It was observed that the hardness of Xe-irradiated specimens saturate at about 2 displacement/atom (dpa), whereas in the case of proton irradiation, the saturation hardness may be more than 7 dpa. This discrepancy may be due to the different damage distributions.

Not only difference of fatigue crack growth and propagation behavior resulted from the grain size, the hardness ratio and volume fraction in M.E.F. dual phase steel composed of martensite in hard phase and ferrite in soft phase, but also the effects of the plastic constraint were investigated by fracture mechanics and microstructural method. The main results obtained are as follows: 1) The fatigue endurance of M.E.F. steel increases with decreasing the grain size, increasing the ratio of hardness and volume fraction. 2) The initiation of slip and crack occures faster as the stress level goes higher. These phenomena result from the plastic constraint effect of the second phase. 3) The crack propagation rate in the constant stress level is faster as the grain size gets larger, the ratio of hardness lower and volume fraction smaller.

The formation of a thicker hard alloyed layer have been investigated on the surface of aluminum cast alloy (AC2B) by PTA overlaying process with Cr, Cu and Ni motel powders under the condition of overlaying current 125-200A. overlaying speed 150 mm/min and different powder feeding rate 5-20 g/min. In addition the characteristics of hardening and wear resistance of alloyed layer here been examined in relation to the microstructure of alloyed layer. Main results obtained were summarized as follows: 1) There was an optimum overlaying condition to get a good alloyed layer with smooth surface. This good layer became easy to be formed as increasing overlaying current and decreasing powder feeding rate under a constant overlaying speed. 2) Cu powder was the most superior one in metal powders used due to a wide optimum overlaying condition range, uniform hardness distribution of Hv250-350, good oar resistance and freedom from cracking in alloyed layer with fine hyper-eutectic structure. 3) On the contrary, irregular hardness distribution was usually obtained in Cr ar Ni alloyed layers of which hardness was increased as Cr or Ni contents and reached to maximum hardness of about Hv400-850 at about 60wt%cr or 40wt%Ni in alloyed layer. 4) Cracking occurred in Cr or Ni alloyed layers with higher hardness than Hv250-300 at mere than 20-25wt% of Cr or Ni contents in alloyed layer. Porosity was observed in all alloyed layers but decreased by usage of spherical powder with smooth surface.

The structures and mechanical properties of undirectionally solidified Sn-Zn eutectic alloys have been examined over the growth range 7mm/h to 6,000mm/h. The structures of unidirectionally solidified Sn-Zn eutectic alloys were primarily broken-lamellar at growth rates below 760mm/h and became fibrous at higher growth rates above that. At a growth rate 3,084mm/h the structures were fibrouse only. There is no dendrites at any growth rates, but occasionally ribbon-like morphologies were seen. The under cooling increased parabolically with growth rate increase. The hardness of specimes increased with growth rates increase but heat-treated specimen decreased after growth rates 760mm/h and became constant value. The effect of heat-treatment was good at lower growth rate. At room temperature tensile strength increased with growth rates up to R=990mm/h and then tensile strength became near-constant value. The effect of heat-treatment was well at lower growth rate.

Silicon oxide films with high hardness and water repellency were prepared by microwave plasma-enhanced CVD using four kind of organosilicon compound-fluoro-alkyl silane mixtures as source gases. An argon gas was used as a carrier gas for fluoro-alkyl silane. The substrate temperatures during deposition were controlled by resistant heating at a constant value between 50 and $300^{\circ}C$. The hardness of the films increased, but the deposition rate and the contact angle for a water drop decreased with increasing substrate temperature. The number of methoxy groups also affected the water repellency and hardness. The deposited films became more inorganic with increasing substrate temperature because of the thermal dissociation of reactants.

The only hardness of 2nd phase of martensite in dual phase steel which was composed of the martensite and ferrite was changed. Fatigue test was conducted by cantilever type of self-made rotated bending fatigue testing machine. The corrosion fatigue fracture behaviors of dual phase steel were investigated in 3% NaCl solution at $N_f$ = $1.5\times$$10^5$ $N_f$=1.0 $\times$ $10^6$ cycles. The fatigue strength was increased with increasing the hardness of 2nd phase. The size and number of corrsion pits were influenced by the 2nd phase hardness and pits remain constant in size just after they were transited into cracks. The life of crack initiation was effected by stress level. The shape of relation of $\Delta$K and da/dn has smaller scattering in it in 3% NaCl solution than that in air. The higher the 2nd phase hardness is, the higher the corrosion fatigue life becomes. Corrosion fatigue fracture behavior was effected by mechanics in case of $N_f$=1.5$\times$10$^5$$N_f$=1.5$\times$10$^6$ cycles.
