Silicon nitride samples with aligned whisker seeds were prepared with different amounts of yttria and alumina as the sintering additives. Their sintering behaviors and the microstructural developments between $1850^{\circ}C$ and $2050^{\circ}C$ were examined. The sample with larger amount of the sintering additives showed faster densification and grain growth. Even though addition of the aligned whisker seeds slightly retarded densification of silicon nitride, it improved the flexural strength and the fracture toughness. Both the flexural strength and the fracture toughness of silicon nitride with the aligned whisker seeds were increased as the amount of the sintering additives was increased.

An experimental method to investigate the fracture strength and fracture toughness for the silicon nitrides sintered at various sintering temperature is established. The erosion rate for these materials in the various concentration of NaOH solution is also investigated. In result, the fracture strength of Si3N4 is decreased with the increase of sintering temperature. On the other hand, the fracture toughness KIC is increased with the increase of sintering temperature. The erosion rate of silicon nitride in the NaOH solution depend largely on the grain size and the concentration of NaOH solution. The erosion rate of silicon nitride sintered at $1800^{\circ}C$ was much higher than that at $1950^{\circ}C$. These results are due to the unique columnar structure of silicon nitride.

Porous silicon nitride ceramics were prepared by SHS (Self-Propagating High Temperature Synthesis) from silicon powder, silicon nitride powder and pore-forming precursor. The microstructure, porosity and the flexural strength of the porous silicon nitride ceramics were varied according to the Si/Si3N4 ratio, size and amount of the pore-forming precursors. Some sample exhibited as high flexural strength as $162{\pm}24\;MPa$. The high strength is considered to result from the fine pore size and the strong bonding amoung the silicon nitride particles.

저에너지 소모를 위한 대책으로 장치설비의 고효율화를 이루어 나가고 있으나, 고온 고압 등의 극한환경 하의 공정이 증가하면서 상기의 조건 하에서도 안정적으로 작동 가능한 다공질 세라믹스를 이용한 촉매기술 또는 포집 분리기술에 대한 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 본 고에서는 다공성 세라믹 소재가 특별히 유효하게 대응 가능한 대기오염과 관련하여 오염원 물질 및 오염의 실태를 살펴보고, 각종 다공성 세라믹스의 제조방법과 이에 따른 소재특성을 소개하고 시장의 현황과 전망을 정리하였다. 또한 다공성 세라믹 소재의 가장 대표적인 활용 형태인 하니컴 구조체의 제조방법 및 특성에 대하여 기술하고, 다공성 세라믹 소재의 실제 활용과 관련해서는 오염물질을 입자상물질과 가스상물질로 대별하여 대표적인 사용처와 소재를 수록하였으며, 차세대 신개념 필터로 연구 중인 반응소결 질화규소에 대해 언급하였다.

In this study, the high-temperature dielectric constant of Si₃N₄ ceramics, a representative non-oxide-based radome material, was evaluated and the cause of the dielectric constant change was analyzed in relation to the oxidation behavior. The dielectric constant of Si₃N₄ ceramics was 7.79 at room temperature, and it linearly increased as the temperature increased, showing 8.42 at 1,000 ℃. As results of analyzing the microstructure and phase for the Si₃N₄ ceramics before and after heat-treatment, it was confirmed that oxidation did not occur at all or occurred only on the surface at a very insignificant level below 1,000 ℃. Based on this, it is concluded that the increase in the dielectric constant according to the temperature increase of Si₃N₄ ceramics is irrelevant to the oxidation behavior and is only due to the activation of charge polarization.

The mechanical properties and microstructure and thermal properties of Nitrided Pressureless Sintering(NPS) silicon nitride ceramics, containing three type of $Al_{2}O_3,\;Y_{2}O_3$ sintering additives, were investigated. Also, we have investigated the effect of silicon metal content changing with 0, 5, 10, 15, and $20wt\%$ Si in each composition. In $5wt\%\;Al_{2}O_3,\;5wt\%\;Y_{2}O_3,\;and\;5wt\%$ Si composition, silicon nitride sintered body was successfully densified to a high density. The average 4-point flexural strength and relative density of these specimens were 500 MPa and 98% respectively. Also, Thermal expansion coefficient and thermal conductivity of specimens at room temperature were $2.89{\times}10^{-6}/^{\circ}C\;and\;28W/m^{\circ}C$, respectively. The flexural strength of sintered specimens after thermal shock test of 20,000 cycles was maintained as-received value of 500 MPa.
