Formation of oxide inclusions in the molten aluminium alloys during solidification is investigated. The oxidation tendency of both Al-4.5wt%Cu and Al-7wt%Si alloys is increased with melt temperature, particularly over $700^{\circ}C$. However, an Al-5wt%Mg alloy exhibits a decreasing mode over $800^{\circ}C$. The oxidation behavior with holding time shows the S curve shape for all of the alloys. It is shown that the mechanism of oxidation of Al-5wt%Mg alloy has a two step process different from that of Al-4.5wt%Cu and Al-7wt%Si alloys. The species and morphology of oxide inclusions in each alloy is also shown. The microstructure was more coarsened during solidification when the melt contains a large amount of oxide inclusion than when it doesn't. This result can be explained in terms of both the hindrance of heat extraction by oxide film formed on the aluminium melt and the difference of heat capacity between the aluminium melt and oxide inclusion during solidification.

In this paper, we intend to make FFS mode cell with LC alignment used non-rubbing method, ion beam alignment method on the a-C:H thin film, to analyze electro-optical characteristics in this cell. We studied on the suitable inorganic thin film for FFS-LCD and the aligning capabilities of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using the new alignment material of a-C:H thin film as working gas at rf bias condition. A high pretilt angle of about 5$^{\circ}$ by ion beam(IB) exposure on the a-C:H thin film surface was measured. An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) and response time curve of the ion-beam-aligned FFS-LCD was observed with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin films.

The important factors in sensors are sensitivity, selectivity, and response time. Oxide semiconductors are high sensitivity, fast response and the advantage of miniaturization. Zn-doped $SnO_2$ materials have been synthesized in order to improve the selectivity of the sensor. ZnO/$SnO_2$ crystals were prepared by a simple hydrothermal process and ultrasound pretreated hydrothermal process. ZnO/$SnO_2$ urchins were fabricated in the precursor solution with [$Zn^{2+}$]:[$Sn^{4+}$] ratio of 1:5 and rod structures were fabricated ratio of 1:1 and 1:3. Surface area ratio was increased by increasing the ratio of [$Sn^{4+}$]. The sensitivity of sensors were highest at the [$Zn^{2+}$]:[$Sn^{4+}$] ratio of 1:5 in ethanol, acetaldehyde, toluene, and nitric oxide.

본 연구에서는 습식법에 의해서 초미립 마그네타이트를 합성하였으며, 이를 자성유체의 분산질로 하는 수상자성 유체를 제조하였다. 이때 합성마그네타이트의 입자표면에는 dodecanoic acid 이온의 흡착층을 형성시켜 수용액중에 안정하게 분산시켰다. 또한 합성된 마그네타이트의 기초적 물 성과 수상자성유체 제조시 계면활성제의 첨가량 및 pH의 변화등이 자성유체의 분산측성, 자기적 특성 및 콜로이드적 안정성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다.

In gravity die casting, die cooling systems are frequently employed with water cooling to remove the heat of the solidifying metal. Thermal modeling is an important technique in mold design for improving the productivity of the process. Computer simulation system which consists of pre-processor, main solidification simulator and post-processor has been developed for three dimensional solidification analysis of cyclic gravity die casting. The pre-processor is used for mesh generation in a PC system. The modified finite difference method is adopted for the main solidification simulation algorithm during all the casting cycles. The post-processor graphically presents the simulation results. Several experiments in automotive cast piston were carried out. The temperature variations in casting and mold with time are measured experimentally, and the results are compared with calculation results. The effects of cycle number on solidification pattern are also studied. Several experimental results for the prediction of shrinkage defects are compared with calculated results.

This study aims at investigating the correlation of microstructure and mechanical properties of the AZ91 Mg/Al borate whisker composites fabricated by squeeze csting technique with a variation of applied pressure. Microstructure observation and in-situ fracture tests were conducted on the composites to identify the microfracture process. Detailed microstructural analyses indicated that the grain refinement could be achieved with applied pressure and the little change in volume fraction on reinforcing whiskers could be carried out. It was also found clearly from in-situ observation of crack initiation and propagation that in the composite processed by the lower applied pressure, microcracks were initiated earily at whisker/matrix interfaces, thereby resulting in the drop in strength. In the composite processed by the higher applied pressure, on the other hand, planar slip lines were well developed in the matrix, and then propagated through whiskers without whisker/matrix decohesion. Thus, the effect of the applied pressure on microstructure and mechanical properties can be explained by grain refinement, increased amounts of reinforcements, and improvement of whisker/matrix interfacial strength as the applied pressure in increased.

The mechanical properties of mechanically alloyed Al-4wt%Mg alloys dispersed with $MgAl_2O_4$ dispersoilds at room and elevated temperatures were investigated. The powders in steady state during mechanical alloying consisted of Mg-supersatu rated Al solid solution and $Al_4C_3$ which resulted from the reaction of Al with C in process control agent (methanol). The hot-extruded materials consisted of uniformly dispersed fine $MgAl_2O_4$, ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, $Al_2O_3$ and matrix with extremly fine substructure. Tensile specimens prepared from the extruded bars were tested at room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$ under different strain rates. The tensile strength of alloys at room temperature ranged from 500 to 594MPa. At elevated temperatures, the tensile strengths and elongations decreased with increasing temperature. Adding 3% $MgAl_2O_4$ to Al-4wt%Mg increased the tensile strength of 50MPa at rowan temperature and 20MPa at $400^{\circ}C$.

Heat treatment conditions and the formation of microstructures were studied for improving the transformation-induced plasticity(TRIP) effect of retained austenite and mechanical properties of Fe-0.2%C-1.5%Si-1.5%Mn sheet steel. An excellent combination of elongation about 30% and high strength over 760MPa was achieved by processing of intercritical annealing and isothermal holding Intercritical annealing the sheet steel produced fine particles($1{\sim}2{\mu}m$) of retained austenite which were stabilized due to C enrichment by subsequent holding in bainite transformation range. Heat treatment conditions were depended on the shape and distribution of second phases as well as the volume fraction and stability of retained austenrte. In this work, the heat treatment condition of optimal strength-elongation balance was obtained by holding the steel at $400^{\circ}C$ for 200sec, after intercritical annealing at $790^{\circ}C$ for 300sec.

Effect of various austempered structures on fracture characteristics of C/V graphite cast iron has studied. The tensile strength and hardness reached the maximum value of 971.4MPa and HB302 at the austempering temperature of $250^{\circ}C$, respectively. As the austempering temperature increased, the amount of retained austenite increased from 18% to 22, 29%, while $K_{IC}$ values ranged from the value of $65MPa{\cdot}m^{12} to 70MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}, 66MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}. This fact that $K_{IC}$ value was not sensitive to the increase of the amount of the retained austenite was that $K_{IC}$ was dependent on the matrix structure in lower bainitic matrix, while dependent on the notch effect from C/V graphite shape in upper bainitic matrix. Fractured surfaces showed a ductile fracture pattern at $300^{\circ}C$. Very large coalescence by C/V graphite and relatively small voids by spheroidal graphite were observed.

It has been a major concern in the foundry that steel castings manufactured by the evaporative pattern casting process encounter the carbon pick-up problem. A carbon rich layer at the evaporative pattern cast surface is a result of interactions between the gaseous products from foamed polystyrene and the molten metal. The carburized layer with a high hardness makes it difficult to machine the casting. In this study, the influence of the density of EPS pattern and coatings on carbon pick-up phenomena of S25C and S45C commercial carbon cast steel were investigated. As the density of EPS pattern is increased, the carbon concentration of decomposed pattern is increased and the thickness of carburized layer at the surface of steel castings is increased. Also as the density of coatings is increased, the permeability of coatings is decreased and the thickness of carburized layer at the surface of steel castings is increased. S25C steel which has lower original carbon content compared to S45C steel exhibited severe carburization.
