The objective of this study is to investigate the characteristics - microstructure, hardness, adhesive strength and friction coefficient - of the coatings with aging - treatment after optimizing internal- plasma spraying parameters for Al-30wt%Si powder as a basic research to manufacture the cylinder block bore for Al engine composed of Al-30wt%Si alloy on Al alloy, The optimum internal-plasma spraying parameters of Al-30wt%Si alloy are summarized as follows: voltage: 37.5V, current: 160A, working distance: 25mm, gun traverse speed: 4.5mm/s, rotating speed: 518m/min. The primary Si particles grew aggressively with increasing heat-treating temperature. The hardness of the as-sprayed coating was about Hv=275 but this value was abruptly decreased with increasing heat-treating temperature. And average friction coefficient of the coating was below 0.08 after heat treatment for 48h at $175^{\circ}C$.

In this paper processing and mechanical properties of Al-20 wt％ Si alloy was studied. A bulk form of Al-20Si alloy was prepared by gas atomizing powders having the powder size of 106-145 ${\mu}m$ and powder extrusion. The powder extrudate was subsequently equal channel angular pressed up to 8 passes in order to refine grain and Si particle. The microstructure of the gas atomized powders, powder extrudates and equal channel angular pressed samples were investigated using a scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. The mechanical properties of the bulk sample were measured by compressive tests and a micro Victors hardness test. Equal channel angular pressing was found to be effective in matrix grain and Si particle refinement, which enhanced the strength and hardness of the Al-2OSi alloy without deteriorating ductility in the range of experimental strain of 30％.

The bi-materials composed of $Al-5wt{\%}Mg$ and its composite reinforced with SiC particles were prepared by ball-milling and subsequent sintering process. The size of powder in Al-Mg/SiCp mixture decreased with increasing ball-milling time, it was saturated above 30 h when the ball and powder was in the ratio of 30 to 1. Both $Al-5wt{\%}Mg$ powders mixture and $Al-5wt{\%}Mg/SiCp$ mixture were compacted under a pressure of 350MPa and were bonded by sintering at temperatures ranging from 873K to 1173K for 1-5h. At 873k, the sound bi-mate-rials could not be obtained. In contrast, the bi-materials with the macroscopically well-bonded interface were obtained at higher temperatures than 873K. The length of well-bonded interface became longer with increasing temperature and time, indicating the improved contact in the interface between unreinforced Al-Mg part and Al-Mg/SiCp composite part. The relative density in the bi-materials increased as the sintering temperature and time increased, and the bi-materials sintered at 1173K for 5h showed the highest density.

In this study, SiC powder and Si powder were used as the raw materials. Mixture was prepared with addition of Al2O3 and Fe2O3 at 0.1~0.5wt% respectively. After this step, the mixture was pressed and nitrided for 30 hrs at 140$0^{\circ}C$ under NH3-N2 atmosphere. Mechanical properties of sintered specimens were investigated from measurement of porosity, bulk density and three point bending test. nitration reaction extent was observed at the change of mass before and after reaction, and the microstructure and the change of $\alpha$-Si3N4 and $\beta$-Si3N4 were observed by XRD and SEM. In the current work, the results are as follows 1. When Fe2O3 added, the nitridation increased with the content of Fe2O3, and the bending strength was increased from 0.1 wt% to 0.3 wt%, and decreased to 0.5 wt%. 2. When Al2O3 added, the nitridation and the bending strength increased little by little with the content of Al2O3 3. The bending strength of the specimen added with Fe2O3 were higher than that with Al2O3. Because the specimens contained Fe2O3 had much more the whisker type crystal of Si3N4 contributing to strength than contained Al2O3.

Si3N4, AlN and Y2O3 powder mixtures of the Y0.1(Si, Al)12(N, O)16 composition were hot-pressed at 1900℃ for 0 to 60 min under 30 MPa in order to fabricate the partially-stabilized α-Sialon ceramics (X=0.1). Room and high temperature flexural strengths of the specimens were compared with those of Si3N4-5 wt%Y2O3, Si3N4-5 wt%Y2O3-2 wt%Al2O3, and β-Sialon (Z=0.5) ceramics. The flexural strength of the α-Sialon ceramics which was hot-pressed for 15 min showed the highest value of 820 MPa at 1400℃ that is relatively higher temperature. It is guessed that a little amount of glassy phase existed in grain boundary because Y2O3 and AlN components were incoperated in Si3N4 grains, or transient liquid phase sintering, and microstructure with the smaller grain size and the interlocked grains of α'-and β-Si3N4 was obtained by the hot-pressing at high temperature of 1900℃ for the short time (15 min).

Tetrafluoromethane($CF_4$) have been widely used as etching and chemical vapor deposition gases for semiconductor manufacturing processes. $CF_4$ decomposition efficiency using microwave system was carried out as a function of the microwave power, the reaction temperature, and the quantity of $Al_2O_3$ addition. High reaction temperature and addition of $Al_2O_3$ increased the $CF_4$ removal efficiencies and the $CO_2/CF_4$ ratio. When the SA30 (SiC+30wt%$Al_2O_3$) and SA50 (SiC+50wt%$Al_2O_3$) were used, complete $CF_4$ removal was achieved at $1000^{\circ}C$. The $CF_4$ was reacted with $Al_2O_3$ and by-products such as $CO_2/CF_4$ and $AlF_3$ were produced. Significant amount of by-product such as $AlF_3$ was identified by X-ray powder diffraction analysis. It also showed that the ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ was transformed to ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ after microwave thermal reaction.

${\beta}$-SiC powders were prepared by the simultaneous reduction and carbiding of Jecheon quartzite at 1400$^{\circ}C$ for 7 hours in hydrogen atmosphere, using graphite or carbon black as the reducing and carbiding reagent. The prepared SiC powder was acid-treated with the mixture of fluoric acid and hydrochloric acid at room temperature and also by heating on an alcohol lamp for one hour, respectively. The impurities were mostly eliminated and the purity of SiC became 98.5% after hot acid treatment. The specific surface area of SiC powder was also increased up to 115㎡/g by hot acid treatment. This pure and fine SiC powder was hot-pressed at 1900$^{\circ}C$ for 30min, using 5wt% Al2O3 as a sintering aid. The density, M.O.R., KIC and hardness of the hot-pressed SiC ceramics were 3.195g/㎤, 48.7Kgf/$\textrm{mm}^2$, 5.4MN/㎥/2 and 2,182Kgf/$\textrm{mm}^2$, respectively.

Effect of Si metal powders addition with the plasma transferred arc(PTA) overlaying process on characteristics of the alloyed layer in aluminum alloy(A5083) has been investigated. The overlaying conditions were 175-250A in plasma arc current, 500mm/min in travel speed, the 5-20g/min in powder feeding rate. Main results obtained are summarized as follows. 1)Sufficient size of molten pool on surface of base metal was required for forming an alloyed layer; in a fixed travel, the formation of alloyed layer with clear and beautiful surface depend upon the plasma arc current and powder feeding rate; the greater plasma arc current and the smaller powder feeding rate were, the better bead was formed. Optimum alloyed conditions by which an excellent alloyed bead obtained was 225A in plasma arc current. PTA process made it possible to form an alloyed layer with up to 67wt% Si. 2)Microstructure in the alloyed layer was in accord with prediction from the Al-Si phase diagram 3)The hardness of the alloyed layer increased in proportion to Si content. 4)As volume fraction of primary Si increased, the specific wearness of the alloyed layer was significantly improved. However, no further improvement was found when the volume fraction was greater than about 30%. 5)Utilizing the PTA process, a crack free alloyed layer with maximum hardness of about Hv 310 could be obtained.
