  • Pentamethylcyclopentadienyltitanium trichloride, bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium dichloride ($Cp_2TiCl_2$), and bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)titanium dichloride were used in the polymerization of styrene without the aid of Group I-III cocatalysts. The properties of the resulting polymer indicated that polymerization was more controlled than in thermal polymerization. The kinetic studies indicated that a lower level of termination is present and that the polymer chain can be extended by adding an additional monomer. To elucidate the mechanism of polymerization, a series of experiments was performed. All results supported the involvement of a radical mechanism in the polymerization using $Cp_2TiCl_2$. The possibility of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) mechanism was investigated by isolating the intermediate species. We could confirm the activation step from the reaction of 1-PEC1 with $Cp_2TiCl$ by detecting the coupling product of the generated active radicals. However, the reversible deactivation reaction competes with other side reactions, and it detection was difficult with our model system.

  • Sponataneous ignition characteristics for granulated activated carbon were observed by performing experiments at constant ambient temperature and varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally. In case of varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally, the amplitudes of temperature were 5$^{\circ}C$, 1$0^{\circ}C$ and 15$^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the period in each amplitude was varied at an interval of 30minutes from zero to 3hours. As the results of experiments at a constant ambient temperature, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature of the sample decreased as the sample vessel size increased. Apparent activation energy of the sample calculated from the Frank-Kamenetskii's thermal Ignition theory was 38.82[kca1/mo1] In case of varying the ambient temperature sinusoidally, the critical spontaneous ignition tempera-ture was lower than that at the constant ambient temperature, and the minimum critical spontaneous ignition temperature decreased with the amplitude of heating sinusoidal curve. At the same amplitude, the critical spontaneous ignition temperature decreased until it reached the minimum point and then in-creased as the period increased.

  • The decrease of polarization resistance in cathode is the key point for intermediate temperature SOFC(Solid Oxide Fuel Cell). In this study, the Influence of Co substitution in B-site at perovskite PSCM (Pr0.3Sr0.7CoxMn(1-x)) was investigated. The PSCM series exhibits excellent MIEC(Mixed ionic Electronic Conductor) properties. The ASR(Area Specific Resistance) of PSCM3773 was $0.174{\Omega}cm^2\;at\;700^{\circ}C$. The activation energy of PSCM3773 was also lower than other compositions of PSCM. The ASR values were increased gradually during the thermal cycling test of PSCM37773 due to the delamination between electrolyte and cathode materials.

  • The extracellular polysaccharide was isolated from the culture of Ps. delafieldii and its rheological property was evaluated. The aqueous solution was extremely viscous and shows pseudoplastic behaviour. The flow behaviour index and apparent viscosity of 1 %solution were 0.09 and 1169 mPa·s. The solution was stable over pH change but did not have thermal stability. The activation energy of flow of 1 % solution was 4.44 kcal/mole. The concentration dependency could be expressed double logarithmically.

  • The 3D simulations for the Rotary Specimen Rack (RSR), the shielding concret, and the reactor core dismantling processes in the Korea Research Reactor-1&2(KRR-1&2) were carried out in the present work. The four main dismantling items, which are the RSR, reactor core, beam tube, and the thermal column and the shield concrete, were selected among the many components in the KRR-2 by consideration of the activation, worker training, difficulty of the work and so on. On the basis of these, we built 3D CAD models, selected the proper dismantling technologies, and reviewed their dismantling processes. In this study, the 3D simulation results of the shielding concrete, and the reactor core dismantling processes are also presented and discussed.

  • Using thermal hydrolysis and hydrothermal treatment, photocatalytic $TiO_2$ powders were synthesized. During the synthesis, the addition of other transition metals such as iron, copper, etc., affected the photocatalytic capability of synthesized powders, and enabled the activation by visible light. To enhance photocatalytic capacity of gas phase decomposition, the rate-determining adsorption rate of pollutant gases were improved via surface modification of $TiO_2$ powders. The surface modifiers were implanted using mechanochemical synthesis of dopants and photocatalytic powders.

  • The effects of heat treatment on the electrical properties of SGOI were examined. We proposed the optimized heat treatments for improving the interfacial electrical properties in SGOI-MOSFET. By applying the additional pre-RTA(rapid thermal annealing) before gate oxidation and post-RTA after dopant activation, the driving current, the transconductance, and the leakage current were improved significantly.

  • Zinc diffusion characteristics and its applicabilities have been studied using an open-tube system. Thermal decomposition of arsenide(As) at gallium arsenide(GaAs) wafer surface was well inhibited by using Ga: poly-GaAs: Zn compositon as a diffusion source. Junction depth was obtained as 4.6x10**7\ulcorner exp)-1.25/kT) where activation energy of diffusion was 1.25eV. From Boltzmann-matano analysis, it could be identified that concentration dependencies of Zn diffusivity well consisted with those of kick-out model. The ideality factor of p+-n junction formed by Zn diffusion was about 1.6 and infrared light intensity was linearly varied in the range of sixty folds. It is concluded frodm these results that Zn diffuses according to kick-out model, and open-tube method is applicable to compound semiconductor devices.

  • Poly-Si TFT's could be fabricated on glass substrates by metal induced lateral crystallization (MILC) method at 450.deg. C. Channel area of the poly-Si TFT's was laterally crystallized from source and drain areas, where a thn nickel film was deposited. Dopants activation for the formation of source and drain region could be achieved by thermal annealing at 450.deg. C after the ion mass doping of phosphorus. The field effect mobility of thus formed N-channel poly-Si TFT's was 76cm$^{2}$/Vs, and the on/off current ratio was higher than 7E6.

  • This paper describes the preparation and study of thermally stimulated discharge conductivity (TSDC) study of cellulose triacetate (CTA) - multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) film thermoelectrets. TSDC has been carried out in the temperature range 308 - 503 K and at four different polarizing fields. The conductivity of the polymer blends increased with increase in temperature showing a semi-conducting behavior. The apparent activation energy also showed a pronounced effect with the increase in the content of MWNTs.
