GGBFS(Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) has been widely used in concrete for its excellent resistance chloride and chemical attack, however cracks due to hydration heat and dry shrinkage are reported. In many International Standards, GGBFS with low fineness of 3,000 grade is classified for wide commercialization and crack control. In this paper, the mechanical and durability performance of concrete were investigated through two mix proportions; One (BS) has 50% of w/b(water to binder) ratio and 60% replacement ratio with low-fineness GGBFS, and the other (TS) has 50% of w/b and 60% replacement ratio with 4000 grade and FA (Fly Ash). The strength difference between TS and BS concrete was not great from 3 day to 91 day of age, and BS showed excellent performance for chloride diffusion and carbonation resistance. Two mixtures also indicate a high durability index (more than 90.0) for freezing-thawing since they contain sufficient air content. Through improvement of strength in low fineness GGBFS concrete at early age, mass concrete with low hydration heat and high durability can be manufactured.

The synergistic solvent extraction of Mn(II) by N-nitroso-N-phenylhydroxylamineammonium salt (cupferron) and tetrabutylammonium ion ($TBA^+$) has been studied. In the presence of $TBA^+$, over 95% Mn(II) was extracted from an aqueous solution into chloroform by the cupferron in the pH range of 4 to 10. But a part of Mn(II) was extracted with only cupferron. The ternary complex of Mn(II) was more efficiently extracted into $CH_2Cl_2$ and $CHCl_3$ than other nonpolar solvents. The extracted Mn(II) was determined in the back-extracted $HNO_3$ solution by GF-AAS. This fixed procedure was applied to the determination of trace Mn(II) in tap water samples of pH 5.0. The detection limit equivalent to 3 times standard deviation of the background absorption was 0.37 ng/mL and Mn(II) was determined with the range of 0.4 to 1.01 ng/mL in our laboratory's tap water. And the recovery was 94 to 107% in samples in which 2.0 ng/mL Mn(II) was spiked. The interferences of common concomitant elements such as Cu(II), Ca(II), Fe(III) and so on were not shown up to $10{\sim}20{\mu}g/mL$. From these results, this procedure could be concluded to be applied for the determination of trace Mn(II) in other environmental water samples.

AC-PDP에서 발광 휘도와 발광 효율의 개선은 매우 중요한 과제중의 하나이다. 높은 발광 휘도와 발광 효율을 위해선 VUV의 높은 발광 효율이 요구되어진다. 이 실험에서는 AC-PDP에서 Ne-Xe의 2원 혼합기체와 He-Ne-Xe의 3원 혼합기체의 VUV 발광 세기를 측정하였다. 기체 압력은 200 Torr, 300 Torr, 400 Torr, 500 Torr로 유지하였고, Xe 혼합비는 1%, 2%, 4%, 7%, 10%, 15%를 사용하였다. 진공자외선 발광 세기는 He-Ne-Xe의 3원 혼합기체가 Ne-Xe의 2원 혼합기체보다 발광 세기가 훨씬 높다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 Xe 함량이 증가함에 따라 공명선인 147 nm의 발광 세기는 Xe 혼합비가 약 10%까지는 증가하다가 10% 이후에는 포화되고, 반면 분자선인 173 nm은 Xe 함량과 가스 압력이 증가함에 따라 발광 세기가 증가하였다.

Ternary heavy metal oxide glasses in the $PbO-Bi_2O_3-Ga_2O_3$ system doped with $Er_2O_3$ were prepared and their spectroscopic properties, such as radiative transition probability, calculated and measured radiative lifetimes and cross-sections of 1.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 2.7 $\mu\textrm{m}$ emissions were analyzed. Enhanced quantum efficiencies of some electronic transitions were evident mainly because of the low vibrational phonon energy ($~500cm^{-1}$) inherent in the host glasses. This seems to be the main reason for obtaining the 2.7 $\mu\textrm{m}$ luminescence which is normally quenched in the conventional oxide glasses. In addition, green and red fluorescence emissions were observed through the frequency upconversion processes of the 798 nm excitation. Non-radiative transition due to the multiphonon relaxation is a dominant lifetime-shortening mechanism in the 4f-4f transitions in $Er^{3+}$ ion except for the $^4S_{3/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{15/2}$ transition where a non-radiative transfer to band-gap excitation of the host glasses is dominant. Melting of glasses under an inert gas atmosphere and (or) addition of the typical glass-network former into glasses is necessary in order to enhance the quantum efficiency of the transition.

We investigated the mobilization of Cd, Pb, and Cr in two different soils in response to sorption capacities and competition for available sorption site while they moved under saturated water conditions. Two soil samples that were clay and sandy clay loam were collected within 20 cm from the upland surface. To do this, we used three different systems of heavy metal combinations such as single, binary, and ternary as solution phase. And then we observed the breakthrough curve (BTC) and elution as a function of pore volume by applying heavy metal solution and displacing K solution until these curves reached to maximum and minimum. The results showed that BTC and elution curves were not symmetric and it required more pore volumes with increasing species of heavy metals in solution phase, as well as longer tailings. Compared the areas over and under BTC and elution curve, relatively small amount of heavy metal was displaced by K even though there were differences in electronegativity among heavy metals. Conclusively, we assumed that heavy metals transport in soil could be influenced by soil physical nonequilibrium and chemical equilibrium in solution as far as there were more than two species of heavy metals existed.

In the present study, $CO_2$ permeation through a hydrophilic NaY zeolite membrane was studied under permeate evacuation mode for $CO_2$ single gas, $CO_2-N_2$ and $CO_2-O_2$ binary mixtures, and $CO_2-N_2-O_2$ ternary mixture. It was reconfirmed that the $CO_2$ permeation was governed by surface diffusion and the $CO_2$ selectivity was induced from blocking effect of adsorbed $CO_2$ molecules. The $CO_2$ permeance measured in permeate evacuation mode was much lower than that done in He sweeping mode, but was comparable to that obtained under feed pressurization mode. The NaY zeolite membrane showed a considerable $CO_2$ separation for $14%CO_2-80%N_2-6%O_2$ mixture : $CO_2$ permeance was about $1{\times}10^{-7}mol/m^2secPa$ and $CO_2$ selectivity was more than 10. Therefore, it was concluded that NaY zeolite membrane was one of promising membranes for post-combustion CCS process.

Manganese (Mn) nodules in the Arctic Sea have been founded in the Kara Sea and Barents Sea, but mineral and chemical compositions have been rarely investigated. In this study, mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of Mn nodules obtained during the Arctic Expedition ARA07C in northern East Siberian Sea were identified, and then genesis of Mn nodules were estimated by using these characteristics. Main manganese oxide minerals constituting the manganese nodule were buserite, birnessite, and vernadite. The Mn nodules generally represent radiated and massive texture, and the layered texture was developed restrictively. The radiated texture, main feature of the manganese nodule in the East Siberian Sea, is mainly composed of cuspate-globular microstructure. Compared with the Mn nodules in Pacific and Indian Oceans, Mn nodules of the East Siberian Sea are abundant in Mn, but Fe is too scarce. There was no difference in the chemical composition and microstructures between outer and inner part of nodule. Therefore, nodules are most likely to have only one genesis during their growth, and all of nodules indicate the diagenetic in $Mn-Fe-(Cu+Ni+Co){\times}10$ ternary diagram. It is considered that the manganese nodules in the East Siberian Sea are characterized by high Mn contents because manganese contents in the Arctic Ocean were mainly resulted from river or coastal erosion and most of them are trapped in the Arctic Ocean.

It has been found that the addition of cosurfactant is necessary in order to expand three phase region containing middle phase microemulsion in ternary systems containing alkyl ethoxylate (AEO) nonionic surfactant, commercial lubricant and water. Phase behavior in the surfactant systems with addition of cosurfactant over a temperature range of 30 to $60^{\circ}C$ showed different trends depending on surfactant, temperature and chain length of alcohol added. For the $C_{12}E_4$ system, addition of n-pentanol and n-hexanol both produced a three phase region over a wide range of temperatures but the middle-phase formed was found to be a $L_3$ or D' phase which would not facilitate solubilization of high molecular weight lubricants. On the other hand, for the $C_{12}E_5$ system, the middle-phase microemulsion was found to be formed with addition of a rather long-chain alcohol such as n-hexanol, n-heptanol, n-octanol, or n-nonanol. The results shown with the addition of cosurfactant was understood in connection with interfacial tension measurements and composition analysis. The inability of the hydrocarbon region of the surfactant films to incorporate the large lubricant molecules and high solubility of a hydrophobic surfactant are thought to be the chief reasons for poor solubilization with D' phase.

$Na^+$-beta-alumina solid electrolyte was synthesized by solid state reaction using $Li_2O$ and MgO as a phase stabilizer, and the effect of stabilizers on the phase formation and sintering density was investigated. In order to determine the phase fraction according to the synthesizing temperature, the molar ratio of [$Na_2O$] : [$Al_2O_3$] was fixed at 1 : 5, and calcination was conducted at temperatures between $1200{\sim}1500^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. In the $Li_2O$-$Na_2O$-$Al_2O_3$ ternary system, ${\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-alumina phase fraction considerably increased by the secondary phase transition at $1500^{\circ}C$, whereas it maintained similarly in the MgO-$Na_2O$-$Al_2O_3$ system. Additionally, the disc-type specimens of $Na^+$-beta-alumina were sintered at the temperature between $1550{\sim}1650^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, and relative sintering densities, phase changes, and microstructures were analyzed. In case of $Li_2O$-stabilized $Na^+$-beta-alumina, ${\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-phase fraction and relative density of specimen sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$ were 94.7% and 98%, respectively. Relative density of MgO-stabilized $Na^+$-beta-alumina increased with a rise in sintering temperature.

This study was performed to assess the levels of the trace elements(Fe, Cu, Zn, Cr, Co, Mn, Pb, and Cd) in salt-fermented fish products from some areas of the west coast in Korea. Seven samples were Shrimp(Seawoo-jeot), Clam(Jogai-jeot), Oyster(Orikul-jeot), big eyed horring(Bendeng-ie jeot), Mysis(Gonjeng-ie jeot), Hwangandali(Hwangsegi-jeot), and Squid, Han Chi(Han chi-jeot). They were ashed with ternary solution. After ashing the samples, the amount of trace elements in the samples were measured by ICP. The moisture content of the 7 samples before freezing dry were 68.36, 71.52, 81.19, 62.27, 71.30, 64.27, and 66.74%, respectively. Jogai-jeot and Gonjeng-ie jeot contained the most amount of moisture among the samples. Fe contents were 66.46, 309.10, 27.03, 23.01, 132.45, 35.75, and 9.72ppm, respectively. Jogai-jeot contained the most amount of Fe among the samples. Cu contents were 4.60, 4.36, 3.75, 2.21, 10.36, 2.71, and 58.15ppm, respectively. Hanchi-jeot contained the most amount of Cu among the samples. Zn contents were 16.02, 75.06, 37.43, 28.43, 132.45, 35.75, and 9.72ppm, respectively. Gonjeng-ie jeot contained the most amount of Zn among the samples. Cr contents were 0.80, 1.61, 0.84, 0.96, 1.12, 0.96, and 0.59ppm, respectively. Jogai-jeot contained the most amount of Cr among the samples. Co contents were 0.13, 0.54, 0.31, 0.46, 0.50, 0.63, and 0.35ppm, respectively. Hwangsegi-jeot contained the most amount of Co among the samples. Mn contents were 7.30, 10.69, 14.87, 4.12, 8.03, 2.94 and 1.54ppm, respectively. Origkul-jeot contained the most amount of Mn among the samples. Pb contents were 1.80, 4.30, 2.53, 4.61, 3.08, 5.04, and 2.74ppm, respectively. Hwangsegi-jeot contained the most amount of Pb among the samples. Cd contents were 0.005, 0.03, 0.06, 0.005, 0.01, 0.00, and 0.10ppm, respectively. Hanchi-jeot contained the most amount of Cd among the samples. This study is limited within 7 samples caught and producted from the some areas of the west coast in Korea. Therefore, I hope there will be broader experiments concerned with this study to make clear not only nutritional aspect(the contents of Fe, Cu, Zn, Cr, Co, and Mn) but also toxicological aspect(the contents of Pb and Cd).
