Al$_2$O$_3$-TiO$_2$powders of six different compositions were plasma-sprayed on Ti substrate. The spray powders and the spray coated layers were analysed and compared using SEM and X-RD. The elastic properties (specific elastic constant and damping coefficient) of the coated specimens were measured in order to select the optimum composition range of ceramics for use in a speaker diaphragm. A correlation between the microstructure and elastic properties was also investigated. When $Al_2$O$_3$powders with 0- 13% TiO$_2$were plasma sprayed, the coated layers were composed of metastable y-Al$_2$O$_3$with small amount of $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$and the content of $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$was increased with TiO$_2$content. Specific elastic constant was rapidly increased with 2 and 13% TiO$_2$addition to $Al_2$O$_3$. The internal damping was nearly unchanged with TiO$_2$content The specific elastic constant seemed to be dependent on the content of $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$in the coated layer.

In this study, $CeO_2/TiO_2$ nanoparticle with structure of core and shell was synthesized by growing $TiO_2$ onto the surface of $CeO_2$ according to hydrolysis of $Ti(SO_4)_2$. Reaction time, temperature, concentration of $CeO_2$ slurry, pH control of $Ti(SO_4)_2$ were optimized about synthesis of $CeO_2/TiO_2$ core-shell nanoparticle. It was found that optimal mole ratio range of $CeO_2:TiO_2$ was 1:0.2~1.1, the optimal concentration of $CeO_2$ slurry was 1 %, and the optimal reaction temperature was $50^{\circ}C$. The optimal concentration of $CeO_2$ slurry could be increased up to 10 % by adjusting the pH of $Ti(SO_4)_2$ to 1 using $NH_4OH$ and adding to $CeO_2$ slurry. If reaction was carried at $80^{\circ}C$ or higher, the separated $TiO_2$ particles were obtained instead of $CeO_2/TiO_2$ core-shell nanoparticles. The optimal reaction temperature was $50^{\circ}C$ at which good shaped core-shell structure of $CeO_2/TiO_2$ was obtained.
