The characteristics of $Al_2TiO_5$ ceramics were influenced by the additives and the heat treatment that controls the microcrack behavior at grain boundaries. The effect of additives on $Al_2TiO_5$ ceramics were investigated in terms of mechanical properties and thermal expansion at high temperature. The $Al_2TiO_5$ were synthesized at $1500^{\circ}C$, $1550^{\circ}C$ and $1600^{\circ}C$ for 2h by reaction sintering. The formation of $Al_2TiO_5$ phase was increased by additives that enhanced the volume of the microcrack that can lead to low thermal expansion. The mechanical properties of the stabilized $Al_2TiO_5$ ceramics were increased remarkably at $1100^{\circ}C$, $1200^{\circ}C$ and $1300^{\circ}C$ due to the oneset of mechanical healing of grain-bondary microcracks at a high temperature. The amount of microcrack was decreased at lower sintering temperature that causes the increase of mechanical properties at high temperature.

Magaldrate. an antiacid was synthesized by reacting magnesium oxide, aluminum sulfate, and dried aluminum hydroxide gel. The optimum synthesis conditions based on the yield of t he product were established by applying Box-Wilson experimental design. It was found that the optimum synthesis conditions of Magaldrate were as follows: Reaction temperature; 61~$85{\circ}C$, concentration of two reactants. Mgo and $Al(OH)_3$: 16~19.8%, molar concentration ratio of two reactants, [MgO]/[$Al(OH)_3$]; 4.2~5.0, temperature of washing water; 36~$41^{\circ}C$ and drying temperature of the product: 76~$80^{\circ}C$. Magaldrate was synthesized under the optimum synthesis conditions and identified by analyzing the chemical composition, and by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction method. The Magaldrate sample synthesis under these conditions was used to prepare 15.6% Magaldrate original suspension which was utilized to make 13% Magaldrate suspension dispered in various concentrations of eight types of suspending agents. The acid-neutralizing capacity of 13% Magaldrate suspension dispersed in 0.25% suspending agents was examined by Rosset-Rice method. The maximum pH was reached within 1 minute in all suspension tested, and duration maintained between pH 3~5 was decreased in the order of Na alginate Na silicate(meta) Veegum HV pectin agar>Na>CMC>xanthan gum>bentonite. It was found that the hysteresis loop area was increased with temperature in the case of Riopan Plus and the addition of agar, whereas the area was decreased with temperature in the case of the addition of Na alginate and xanthan gum. 13% Magaldrate suspension tends to sediment by the addition of bentonite.

In this study, an MPB PMNT system containing 0.05 to 0.10 wt.% BaTiO₃ was synthesized using a traditional chemical method and its pyroelectricity was investigated. Pyroelectricity, dielectricity, and ferroelectricity of the synthesized BaTiO₃-PMNT system were analyzed by heat treatment at 1240~1280 ℃ for 4 hours to evaluate its applicability as a pyroelectric sensor. Unlike the simple ABO₃ ferroelectric, the BaTiO₃-doped PMNT system exhibited phase transition characteristics over a wide temperature range typical of complex perovskite structures. Although no dramatic change could be confirmed depending on the amount of BaTiO₃ added, stable pyroelectricity was maintained near room temperature and over a wide temperature range. When the amount of BaTiO₃ added increased from 0.05BaTiO₃-PMNT to 0.10BaTiO₃-PMNT, the electric field slightly increased from 5.00×10³ kV/m to 6.75×10³ kV/m, and the maximum value of remanent polarization slightly increased from 0.223 C/m² to 0.234 C/m². The pyroelectric coefficients of 0.05BaTiO₃-PMNT and 0.10BaTiO₃- PMNT at room temperature were measured to be ~0.0084 C/m²K and ~0.0043 C/m²K, respectively. The relaxor ferroelectric properties of the BaTiO₃-PMNT system were confirmed by analyzing the plot of K_max/K versus (T-T_max)^γ. The BaTiO₃-doped MPB PMNT system showed a distinct pyroelectric performance index at room temperature, and the values were F_v ~ 0.0362 m²/C, F_d ~ 0.575×10^-4 Pa^-1/2.

Surface morphology and adsorption characteristics of black and white charcoals prepared from Korean traditional kiln were quantitatively analyzed. TGA and elemental analysis of charcoals were different from produced kiln, and thermal degradation temperature and carbon content of white charcoals were apparently higher than those of black charcoals. Surface morphology shows the activation progressed through the longitudinal direction of woods and new micropores were developed to radial direction on the surface of macropores as the furthermore activation resulting in the pore connection. BET adsorption isotherms show that there are low-pressure hysteresis due to the no desorption of adsorbates, which resulted in unique Type of charcoals overlapping Type I and Type IV. Such a low-pressure hysteresis is occurred from expansion of adsorbates, which were embedded in the micropore entrances and did not get out during the desorption run. The characteristics of charcoals such as specific surface area and pore size distribution did not show correct values depending on not only produced company but also sampling sites of one piece of charcoal. Therefore, it is not easy to suggest the quantitative characteristics of charcoals prepared from Korean traditional kiln. On the other hand, preparation the quality standard of charcoal is necessary for their special uses such as adsorbent.

The effect of compositions of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDl)/4.4'-diphenylmethane diisocyalate (MDI) and polypropylene oxide diol (PPG, $M_w$: 3000)/1,4-butane diol (BD) on the properties of UV-cured polyurethane acrylate films based on 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) was examined. UV-curable polyurethane acrylates were formulated from the prepolymer. trimethylol propane triacrylate (TMPTA) as a reactive diluent, and 1-hydroxycyclohexyl ketone (Irgacure 184) as a photoinitiator. Dynamic mechanical thermal properties and elastic properties of UV-cured polyurethane acrylates was fecund to depend on the chemical composition of IPDl/MDl and PPG/BD. As the BD content increased, the tensile storage modulus of all series samples increased significantly. The storage modulus increased in the order of samples A (IPDI based samples)> samples B (IPDI/MDl (7/3 molar ratio) based samples) > samples C (IPDI/MDl (5/5 molar ratio) based samples at the same composition. Two distinct louts modulus peaks for all samples are observed owing to the softs segment glass transition temperature ($T_gh$) and hard segment glass transition temperature ($T_gh$). The difference between $T_gh$, and $T_gh$, (Δ$T_g$) increases in the order of A > B > C at the same composition. In cycle test, the initial onset strain (%) was found to decrease with increasing BD content in PPG/BD and with increasing MDI content in IPDI/MDl.

A two-chip humidity sensor system has been developed which consists of a capacitive sense element die and a CMOS interface chip. The sense element was fabricated using thin polyimide films on (100) silicon substrate and showed excellent linearity(0.72%FS), low hysteresis (<3%) and low temperature coefficient(-0.0285 ~-0.0542pF/K) over a wide range of relative humidity and temperature. The capacitance-relative humidity characteristic exhibited a drift of 2~3% after 9 weeks of exposure to 4$0^{\circ}C$/90%RH. The signal-conditioning circuitry was fabricated using an 1.2- ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, one poly double metal CMOS process. The measured output voltage of the sensor system was directly proportional to relative humidity and showed good agreement with theory.

The substituted yttrium iron garnet systems $Y_{ 3-x}$/Gd$_{x}$X$0.2_{0.2}$ $Fe_{4.8}$ $O _{12}$ (x = 0.2, 0.4, 0.6) have been investigated by means of X-ray diffraction, Mossbauer spectroscopy and SQUID. The X-ray diffraction patterns at room temperature confirm the samples to have a single phase of the garnet structure over the whole composition range. The lattice constants of all the samples linearly change with increasing x due to the size of substituted ions in the dodecahedral sites. $Y_{3-x}$ $Gd_{x}$ X$Fe_{4.8}$ $In_{0.2}$ $O_{12}$ system which $Y_{3-x}$ ions are substituted with Gd$^{ 3＋}$ ions, the Mossbauer spectrum consists of three Zeeman sextets at room temperature, one due to the $Fe^{3＋}$ ions on the octahedral(a-) sites and the others due to the $Fe^{3＋}$ ions on the tetrahedral(d-, d'-) sites, respectively. From the hysteresis loop measured by means of SQUID over the whole composition range, the saturation magnetization $M_{s}$ and magnetic moments $\mu_{ B}$ per unit cell have been obtained. The increment of Gd-ion content causes $M_{s}$ and $\mu_{B}$ decrease while the increment of In-ion content does not.

We investigated the effects of low temperature ($500^{\circ}C$) $O_2$ annealing on the characteristics of hafnium silicate ($HfSi_xO_y$) films deposited on a Si substrate by atomic layer deposition (ALD). We found that the post deposition annealing under oxidizing ambient causes the oxidation of residual Hf metal components, resulting in the improvement of electrical characteristics such as flat band voltage shift (${\Delta}V_{fb}$) by hysteresis without oxide capacitance reduction. We suggest that post deposition annealing under oxidizing ambient is necessary to improve the electrical characteristics of $HfSi_xO_y$ films deposited by ALD.

$La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_3$ (LSCO) electrode thin films with a resistivity of ~ 1,600 ${\mu}{\Omega}cm$ were grown on c-$Al_2O_3$ (0001) substrate. $ZnSnO_3$ (ZTO) thin films with different thicknesses were directly grown on LSCO/c-$Al_2O_3$ (0001) substrates at a substrate temperature that ranged from 550 to $750^{\circ}C$ using Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD). The secondary phase $Zn_2SnO_4$ occurred during the growth of ZTO films and it became more significant with further increasing substrate temperature. Polarization-electric-field (P-E) hysteresis characteristics, with a remnant polarization and coercive field of 0.05 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ and 48 kV/cm, respectively, were obtained in the ZTO film grown at $700^{\circ}C$ in 200 mTorr.
