Monodispersed colloidal silica was prepared by Stober process. We have synthesized monodispersed colloidal silica of carious sizes (100 nm, 200 nm, 300 nm) by controlling volume ratios of TEOS(Tetraethylorthosilicate), $NH_4OH$, Ethanol and D. I. water. Shape and monodispersity of the synthesized colloidal particles were observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and laser light scattering particle analyzer. Self-assembled monolayer of monodispersed colloids was achieved by dipping Si substrate into a well-dispersed silica suspension. It was determined that uniformity and spatial extent of the self-assemble monolayer of monodispersed colloids are significantly influenced by the experimental parameters such as concentration, pH and surface tension of the colloidal suspension. We have observed a hexagonally well-ordered packing colloidal monolayer in a relatively large area (1.5 mm ${\times}$ 1.5 mm) as confirmed by SEM.

Good appearance of insulation coating is required for non-oriented silicon steel sheets, The property is influenced by both the chemical composition of coating solution and the species of resin. The composition of inorganic-organic coating was studied to obtain good surface quality for non-oriented silicon steel. The greenish degree of coating surface depended on $Cr^{3+}$ content in the coating layer, which was satisfied when chromate content was more than 54.60 wt. %, in the coating solution. The homogeneous pattern and roughness of the coating surface depended on spreading property of the resin. Surface appearance of the coating could be improved by using resin with good spreading property at the chemical composition of chromate 59.00 wt.%.. resin 34.23wt.%, and etyhylene glycol 6.67 wt.% without colloidal sillica.

A study was carried out for production of a pigment : bluish purple, using a mutant Streptomyces californicus KS-89-7. The mutant was induced from Streptomyces californicus KS-89 with N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoquanidin(MNNG). It was immobilized on an inert substance made of colloidal sillica and 3.5% sodium alginate with 1 to 10 ratio. The diameter of inert bead was 2mm, and number of immobilized mutant spore was approximately $1.0{\times}10^7$/ml. It was packed in a column reactor and fermentation was conducted with a substrate made of soluble starch 1%, glycerol 1.0%, sodium glutamate 0.1%, sodium nitrate 0.05%, L-prolin 0.025% and with some trace elements. The aeration for production of the pigment was 2.5m1/min with semi-continuous fermentation. The pigment production reached at peak on 8 days of fermentation, and the mutant produced the pigment 1.8 times more than its parent strain with the maximum pigment production of $1.72g/\ell$. The pigment production continued for 24 hours of fermentation, and at the end of the fermentation the mutant produced the pigment $1.52g/\ell$.
