Yttria-stabilized TZP alloyed with pentavalent oxides $(Ta_2O_5,\;Nb_2O_5)$ were fabricated by the conventional sintering method at $1500^{\circ}C$ in air to construct the simplified ternary phase diagram. The phase stability of tetragonal -$ZrO_2$ from the quasi-binary system $ZrO_2-YTa(Nb)O_4$, which do not transform to monoclinic-$ZrO_2$ even for a wide range of grain size and annealing temperature, was investigated to determine composition region of the non-transformable $t-ZrO_2$ solid solution$(NT_{ss})$. Phase stability of $NT_{ss}$ was probably due to the enhanced stability of $_YTa(Nb)O4$ having the tetragonal fergusonite structure. It was experimentally found that mixtures having $NT_{ss}$ alloyed with $T_{ss}$ by weight%% showed both excellent phase stability of $t-ZrO_2$ and fracture toughness even though the calculated composition of the mixture /was located outside $NT_{ss}$ composition region.

전자빔의 운동에너지를 변화시켜 전자기장을 발생시키는 진공튜브 장치는 기본적으로 전자빔 발생부인 전자총을 핵심 구성부로 사용한다. 이러한 전자총을 이용하는 진공튜브로는 핵융합을 위해 플라즈마 가열용의 RF를 발생시키는 자이로트론 튜브와 방사광 가속기에서 전자를 가속시키는데 이용되는 클라이스트론 튜브 등이 있으며, 군사적으로는 레이더를 비롯하여 유도미상일에 들어가는 탐색기, 전투기에서 사용되는 송수신용 마이크로파 발생장치 등의 핵심부품인 진행파관 진공튜브 등이 있다. 이러한 응용분야에서는 기본적으로 고출력의 전자파를 필요로 하기 때문에 반도체를 이용한 장치로는 그 성능을 구현할 수 없다. 따라서 열음극을 사용하는 전자총을 기반으로 한 다양한 형태의 진공튜브 장치가 주로 이용되고 있다. 현재 고출력 마이크로파 진공튜브용 열음극 전자총은 대부분 외국에서 수입하고 있는데 그 이유는 전자총의 핵심 부품인 열음극 캐소드를 국내에서 개발하지 못하였기 때문이다. 하지만 본 연구에서는 텅스텐 기반의 함침형 열음극 캐소드를 국내에서 자체 개발하는데 성공하였다. 전통적으로 미국에서 개발해온 함침형 열음극 캐소드는 텅스텐 소결체에 기공을 학보하고 여기에 Ba을 중심으로 한 알칼리성 물질들을 일정비율로 혼합하여 함침한 것으로 일함수 2.1~2.3 eV 수준의 물성을 갖는다. 이에 따라 방출할 수 있는 전류의 양은 운용 온도 $1000^{\circ}C$ 정도에서 전류밀도로 대략 수 $A/cm^2$ 수준이다. 본 연구에서 개발한 캐소드는 S-type으로 알려진 것으로 BaO : CaO : $Al_2O_3$ = 4 : 1 : 1 비율로 함침되었다. 고진공장치에서 전류측정 결과 $1040^{\circ}C$에서 $10.6A/cm^2$의 전류밀도를 기록하였으며 이에 대하여 Richardson-Dushman equation으로 계산하였을 때, 약 1.9 eV의 일함수를 갖는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 현재 많은 응용분야에서 사용하고 있으며 함침형 캐소드에 Os이나 Ir 등의 물질을 코팅하여 일함수를 낮추고 전류밀도를 향상시킨 M-type 캐소드의 결과와 유사한 수준이다.

$BaTiO_3$ particles were prepared using $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and $Ti(OC_2H_5)O_4$ by the hydrothermal method and their characteristics treated at the various temperatures have been investigated. This prepared $BaTiO_3$ powder includes a very small amount of $H_2O$ and $OH^-$. By increasing the treated temperature from $200^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$, the mean particle size was accordingly increased from $0.022{\mu}m$ to $0.072{\mu}m$ and the tetrogonality(c/a)was increased from 1.02 to 1.2 so that the phase transition to tetroganal takes place. $BaTiO_3$ sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ after heat treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs showed a specific dielectric constant of 8120 and surface activation energy was 9680 kcal/mol.

In this paper, warpages of heterogeneous LTCC substrates comprised of high K/low K hi-layered structure were investigated. The effect of glass content in high K LTCC layer on the warpage of substrate during co-firing process was examined. Shrinkage and dielectric properties of high K and low K green sheets were measured. In-situ camber observation by hot stage microscopy showed different camber development of heterogeneous LTCC substrates according to glass content in high K green sheet. High K green sheet containing $50\%$ glass was matched to low K green sheet in the shrinkage. Therefore, LTCC substrate of Low K/High K+$50\%$ glass structure showed flat surface after sintering.

A technique for determination of proportions of char, coal ana coke is needed in order to monitor pulverized coal injection performance in operating blast furnace. Quantitative X-ray powder diffraction analysis can be applied to the problem providing that structural information on carbonaceous materials, coal, char, coke and their mixture are known. Chars were prepared from a coal at different temperatures (1000∼1400$^{\circ}C$) and were characterised by X-Ray powder Diffraction (XRD). The XRD result gave crystallite size (height Lc and diameter, La), aromaticity, number of (002) plane in carbon, and d-spacing. As a result, with increasing heat treat temperature of char, Lc$_{(002)}$, La$_{(10)}$ and number of (002) plane in carbon were increased, and d-spacing and FWHM(Full With Half Maximum) were decreased. Result of prediction of amount of char from the mixtures (char, coke and ore) based on the Lc$_{(002)}$ information of two mixtures (coke and char) showed very close values expected.

Advanced zinc-based sorbents, ZA, for Hot Gas Desulfurization (HGD) process in Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) systems were formulated with $Al_2$O$_3$ as support to enhance the reactivity and their reactive characteristics was also investigated in this study. Changes in the physical and chemical properties of the sorbents based on both the mole ratios of ZnO/Al$_2$O$_3$ and the calcination temperatures were examined by a XRD. The results obtained in our desulfurization-regeneration cycle tests demonstrated that degradation of sorbents due to the heat generation could be improved through the optimization of the $Al_2$O$_3$ contents and of the calcination temperatures. From the durability study it is concluded that the prepared ZA sorbents with additives have the desirable features for HGD.

Regeneration of carbon-deposited Ni catalyst used for hydrogenation reaction was studied. Deposited carbon was removed by oxidation with various concentrations of oxygen. Activity of the catalysts was tested on aniline hydrogenation as a model reaction. When a carbon-deposited catalyst was treated under oxygen atmosphere, the specific surface area of the catalyst increased and then decreased with the increase of treatment temperature. The treatment temperature which gives maximum specific surface area increased with the decrease of oxygen concentration. Pore size of the support was decreased and sintering of nickel particles was more significant with the increase of oxygen concentration. The catalyst treated under 5 % oxygen concentration recovered its catalytic activity up to 90 % of the initial value, but the treatment under 20 % oxygen concentration gave no significant increase of the catalytic activity. Catalytic activity increased with treatment time when the catalyst was treated under 5 % oxygen concentration, but nearly constant after 1 hour.

In this work, thermal shock and simultaneous removal reaction for NOx, soot over Pt catalysts using $TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$ as support were studied. The catalytic reaction test for NOx and soot were also performed independently and simultaneously, as a result, it showed different NOx removal efficiency and soot oxidation rate according to support and phase, and the onset temperature of soot oxidation has correlation to NOx removal efficiency for the catalyst. The onset temperature of soot oxidation shifted to lower temperature by generated $NO_2$ at the simultaneous reaction for NOx and soot. Also Pt/$TiO_2$ catalyst is more affected than Pt/$Al_2O_3$ on NOx removal efficiency caused by thermal shock while Pt sintering effect induced to reduce the performance on soot oxidation rate for all catalysts.

Nano-porous ceramic membranes was synthesized by the sol-gel method. Gas permeation of hydrogen and nitrogen was determined by single composition gas. Pore size $0.1{\mu}m$ and porosity 32% of flat type ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ substrate was manufactured. An intermediate ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ layer with pore size of 4 nm was formed by dip-coating. Polymeric silica sol was synthesized by acid catalyzed hydrolysis and condensation of tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate. Supported membranes on alumina were prepared by dipping and calcining. He, $N_2$ permeation experiments with nanoporous sol-gel modified supported ceramic membranes were peformed to determine the gas transport characteristics. $He/N_2$ permselectivity around $100{\sim}160$ and helium permeation in the order of $10^{-7}mol/m^2{\cdot}s{\cdot}Pa$ were measured in the temperature range of $303{\sim}363K$.

Powder metallurgy processes are used to form Net-Shape products and have been widely used in the production of automobile parts to improve its manufacture productivity. Powder-forging technology is being developed rapidly because of its economic merits and because of the possibility of reducing the weight of automobile parts by replacing steel parts with aluminum ones, in particular while manufacturing automotive parts. In the powder-forging process, the products manufactured by powder metallurgy are forged in order to remove any pores inside them. Powderforging technology can help expand the applications of powder metallurgy; this is possible because powder-forging technology enables the minimization of flashes, reduction of the number of stages, and possible grain refinement. At present, powder forging is widely used for manufacturing primary mechanical parts as in combination with the technology of powder forging of aluminum alloy pistons.
