The $Ba(Zn_{1/3}Ta_{2/3})O_3$ ceramics were prepared by conventional mixed oxide method. The structural properties of the BZT ceramics with the sintering temperature were investigated by XRD, SEM. The BZT ceramics have a complex-perovskite structure. The BZT ceramics sintered at $1550^{\circ}C$ had a superstructure plane of BZT(100). Increasing the sintering temperature, the bulk density and ordering were increased. The bulk density of the BZT ceramics sintered at $1550^{\circ}C$ was $7.50[g/cm^3]$. Increasing the sintering temperature, the average grain size were increased and pore were decreased.

Porous alumina specimens with 80~92% relative densities were prepared from ultrasonic spray pyrolyzed alumina Powders by sintering at $1600^{\circ}$~ $1700^{\circ}C$. The exaggerated grain growth appeared to high sintering temperature and long soaking time. The microstructural development during sintering was investigated using image analysis. In the study of grain growth kinetics for sintering for spray prolyzed alumina powder, the activation energy for normal grain growth was 386.77 kJ/mol.

Thermoelectric properties of the $Bi_2(Te_{0.85}Se_{0.15})_3$ alloy, prepared by mechanical alloying and hot pressing, were investigated with the variation of the hot-pressing temperature ranging from $300^{\circ}C$ to $550^{\circ}C$. Contrary to the p-type behavior of single crystal, the hot-pressed $Bi_2(Te_{0.85}Se_{0.15})_3$ alloy exhibited n-type conduction without addition of donor dopant. When the $Bi_2(Te_{0.85}Se_{0.15})_3$ powders were annealed in $(50{\%}\;H_2+50{\%}\;Ar)$ atmosphere, the hot-pressed specimens exhibited a positive Seebeck coefficient due to the reduction of the electron concentration by removal of the oxide layer on the powder surface and annealing-out of the excess Te vacancies. Figure-of-merit of the hot-pressed $Bi_2(Te_{0.85}Se_{0.15})_3$ alloy was improved by hot pressing at temperatures above $450^{\circ}C$, and the maximum value of $1.92{\times}10^{-3}/K$ was obtained for the specimen hot-pressed at $550^{\circ}C$.

Aluminium secondary butoxide(ASB)를 출발물질로 하여 졸-겔방법에 의해 소결거 동에 미치는 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed의 첨가효과에 따른 알루미나의 저온소결 가능성과 알루미나의 상전이에 대하여 TEM, DTA, XRD, FT-IR등으로 고찰을 하였다. TEM 분석결과 초기 생 성물인 boehmite가 비정질에서 단결정질로 진행되어 가고 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 DTA 분석결과 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed의 첨가한 경우 seed의 함량이 증가함에 따라 상전이 온도는 점차 낮아졌으며 약 0.4wt%일 때 seed를 첨가하지 않은 시료의 전이온도(약 1126$^{\circ}C$)에 비하여 약 7$0^{\circ}C$ 저하된 약 1056$^{\circ}C$로나타났으며 그 이상의 seedcja가에 있어서는 전이온도에 크게 영향을 나타내지 않았다. 또한 XRD분석결과 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed를 첨가하지 않은 경우 110$0^{\circ}C$이 상의 온도에서 $\alpha$상이 생성되었음을 알수 있었다. 또한 100$0^{\circ}C$이상의 온도에서 $\alpha$상이 생성 되었음을 나타내는 Al-O 흡수특성 피크가 400~1000cm-1 범위에서 나타내고 있는 것을 FT-IR 분석결과에서도 확인할수 있었다. 그리고 $\alpha$-Al2O3 seed를 약 0.4wt% 첨가시 900~ 95$0^{\circ}C$에서 $\alpha$상이 형성됨을 관찰할 수 있었다.

Properties of AC applied hot pressed ($Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}$) Te thermoelectrics were investigated. Mechanical alloying process used to produce alloyed powder to reduce the inhomogeneity and to avoid vaporization of constituents. It showed an increase in the mechanical alloying time with increasing of Sn contents in ($Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}$)Te. ($Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}$)Te were sintered at 873 to 923K for 1-4 minutes, under 150 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ by AC applied hot pressng method. The short sintering time of AC applied hot pressing process could reduce the vaporization of Te. The density of ($Pb_{1-x}Sn_{x}$) Te was more dependent on the sintering temperature than the sintering time. The p-n transition was observed at x=0.1 but only p type conduction behavior was observed at more than 20 mol% of Sn compositions. The maximum value of Seebeck coefficient is 250 $\mu$V/K for x=0.2 at 500K. As the amount of Sn increases, the peak value of Seebeck coefficient drops and shifts to higher temperature and the peak value of electrical conductivity decreased with increasing temperature.

PZT 세라믹은 우수한 유전 및 압전특성을 갖고 있어 변압기, 센서 및 엑츄에이터 등에 널리 응용되고 있다. 그러나, 우수한 특성에도 불구하고 PZT세라믹스의 소결시 PbO의 높은 유독성 및 휘발로 인하여 환경오염을 야기 시킨다. 그러므로 PbO로 구성된 세라믹을 대체하기 위한 우수한 압전특성을 가진 비납계 세라믹스 개발이 연구의 주류를 이루고 있다. 그 중 비납계 NKN와 BZT는 대체물질로 많이 관심을 받고 있다. 이는 일반적인 NKN조성은 우수한 압전성과 높은 큐리온도를 가지고 있을 뿐만 아니라, BZT조성의 Zr성분이 큐리온도를 낮추거나 유전특성을 졸게 하여 유전율 곡선을 완화하게 하는 특징이 있다. 하지만 NKN은 $1140^{\circ}C$이상의 소결온도에서 K의 휘발특성으로 인해 소성 후에도 주변의 수분을 흡수하는 조해성이 발생하는 문제가 발생한다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 낮은 온도에서 NKN계 세라믹스의 밀도를 증가시킬 뿐만 아니라, 우수한 유전 및 압전특성을 갖는 세라믹스를 제조하고자 비납계 $0.94(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3-0.06Ba(Zr_{0.05}Ti_{0.95})O_3$ (NKN-BZT)의 조성을 사용하였고 소결조제로는 $MnO_2$, NiO, $Bi_2O_3$, ZnO, $Li_2CO_3$, CuO등을 변화주어 유전 및 압전 특성을 알아보았다.

Mn-Co-Ni oxide system has been used as the NTC thermistors for normal temperature applications. Mn-Co-Ni oxide-based thermistors were sintered at different temperatures for a constant processing time from 900 to $1300^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. The crystal structure, bulk density, microstructure and chemical composition were characterized by XRD, FE-SEM and WD-XRF. The plot of the resistance versus measuring temperature was characterized for the sintered sample at the $1250^{\circ}C$. Moreover, the relationship between log resistivity and reciprocal of absolute temperature of the NTC thermistor was investigated.

During the commissioning period in Tonghae thermal power plant which is the largest circulating fluidized bed boiler in the nation, a considerable amount of clinker was formed at FBAC and seal pot. Various attempts, for example, concentration analysis, surface phenomena, thermal characterization, and crystal structure of ash, bed sand, limestone, clinker, and mixture of each gradients have been studied to identify the causes of clinker formed in circulating fluidized bed boiler. As the results, the characterization of black particles in which separated from the clinker is more similar to that of bed sand, on the other hand, white particles are more similar to ash. In addition, the sintering temperature of sand is over $1,200^{\circ}C$ and this temperature was decreased as limestone is added to bed material. The cause of clinker was proved that ash was sticked to molten or sintered sand or limestone in the area of high temperature in the circulating system.
