Effects of ceramic filler types and dose on the low temperature sintering and dielectric properties of ceramic/$CaO-Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ (CAS) glass composites were investigated. All of the specimens were sintered at $850{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, which conditions are required by the low-temperature co-firing ceramic (LTCC) technology. Ceramic fillers of $CaCO_3$, $Al_2O_3$, $CaCO_3-Al_2O_3$ mixture, and $CaCO_3-Al_2O_3$ compound ($CaAl_2O_4$), respectively, were used. The addition of $Al_2O_3$ yielded the crystalline phase of alumina, which was associated with the inhibition of sintering, while, $CaCO_3$ resulted in no apparent crystalline phase but the swelling was significant. The additions of $CaCO_3-Al_2O_3$ mixture and $CaAl_2O_4$, respectively, yielded the crystalline phases of alumina and anorthite, and the sintering properties of both composites increased with the increase of filler addition and the sintering temperature. In addition, the $CaAl_2O_4$/CAS glass composite, sintered at $900^{\circ}C$, demonstrated good microwave dielectric properties. In overall, all the investigated fillers of 10 wt% addition, except $CaCO_3$, yielded reasonable sintering (relative density, over 93 %) and low dielectric constant (less than 5.5), demonstrating the feasibility of the investigated composites for the application of the LTCC substrate materials.

Influences of dose and particle size of $Al_2O_3$ filler and sintering time on the dielectric properties of $Al_2O_3$ filler/CaO-$Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ (CAS) glass composites were investigated with a view to applying the composites to the substrate material in low temperature co-firing ceramic (LTCC) technology. The increased addition of $Al_2O_3$ filler with the particle size of 1 ${\mu}m$ monotonically decreased the density of the sintered specimen at a given temperature, while sintering of the 10 wt% $Al_2O_3$ added specimen at $925^{\circ}C$ for 2 h demonstrated 96.0 % of the relative density, dielectric constant of 6.34, and quality factor of 2,760 GHz. As for the influence of the particle size of the $Al_2O_3$ filler, there existed an optimum particle size (30 ${\mu}m$) to ensure successful densification (96.5 %) of the 10 wt% $Al_2O_3$/CAS composites at $925^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, at which condition the specimen demonstrated dielectric constant of 5.45 and quality factor of 3,740 GHz. When the influence of the sintering time of the 10 wt% $Al_2O_3$) (30 ${\mu}m$) added specimen was investigated at the sintering temperature of $925^{\circ}C$, an overly long sintering time degraded dielectric properties due to the over-sintering and the significant growth of the second phase such as anorthite, while the sintering for 4 h demonstrated 96.58 % of the relative density, dielectric constant of 5.4, and quality factor of 4,050 GHz. These results demonstrate the feasibility of the investigated material as the substrate material in LTCC technology.

Some basic properties of inorganic coatings hardened by the room temperature reaction with alkalies were examined. The coating paste was prepared from the powders in the system $Al_2O_3-SiO_2$-CaO using blast furnace slag, fly ash and amorphous ceramic fiber after mixing with a solution of sodium hydroxide and water glass. The mineralogical and morphological examinations were performed for the coatings prepared at room temperature and after heating to $1200^{\circ}C$ respectively. The binding force of the coating hardened at room temperature was caused by the formation of fairly dense matrix mainly composed of oyelite-containing amorphous phase formed by the reaction between blast furnace slag and alkali solution. At the temperature, fly ash and ceramic fiber was not reacted but imbedded in the binding phase, giving the fluidity to the paste and reinforcing the coating respectively. During heating up to $1200^{\circ}C$, instead of a break in the coating, anorthite and gehlenite was crystallized out by the reaction among the binding phase and unreacted components in ternary system. The crystallization of these minerals revealed to be a reason that the coating maintains dense morphology after heating. The maintenance of binding force after heat treatment is seemed to be also caused by the formation of welldispersed fiber-like mineral phase which is originated from the shape of the amorphous ceramic fiber used as a raw materials.

고상 핵자기공명 분광분석은 비정질의 원자 구조를 제공하는 효과적인 방법론으로 다양한 비정질 규산염의 원자구조를 규명해왔다. 하지만, 함철 비정질 규산염의 경우, 철 함량 증가에 따른 신호의 변화가 상자성 효과와 구조 변동을 모두 반영하고 있기 때문에 분석에 많은 어려움이 있다. 이에 철 함량 증가에 따른 신호 변화가 실제 구조의 변동으로부터 기인한 것인지 확인하기 위해서는 온도변화에 따른 신호의 이동 여부를 관찰하는 것이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 철 함량에 따른 함철 비정질 규산염의 신호 변화를 해석하기 위하여 철이 포함된 휘석과 아노르다이트 조성의 비정질의 가변회전 속도 $^{29}Si$와 $^{27}Al$ NMR 실험을 수행하였다. 이는 온도 상승에 따른 신호의 변화 여부를 확인할 수 있게 하며, 쌍극자 효과에 관한 정보를 제공한다. 함철 휘석 비정질의 $^{29}Si$ NMR과 함철 아노르다이트 비정질의 $^{27}Al$ NMR 결과, 회전 속도 증가에도 불구하고 신호의 형태 및 위치가 달라지지 않았다. 회전 속도의 증가가 신호에 변화를 야기하지 않음을 확인한 본 결과는 철 함량 증가로 인한 신호의 변화가 상자성 이동 기원이 아니라, 철로부터 컷오프 반경 너머의 생존 신호임을 지시한다. 이에 철 함량 증가에 따라 아노르다이트 비정질의 Al 신호가 음의 화학적 차폐 방향으로 이동하는 현상은, 철의 진입에 따른 ${Q^4}_{Al}$(1 또는 2Si) 비율의 상대적 증가와 철과 ${Q^4}_{Al}$(3 또는 4Si) 구조간의 높은 공간적 근접도를 지시한다. 본 결과는 철 함량에 따른 규산염 비정질의 고상 NMR 신호 변화가 실제 구조적 변화를 지시하고 있음을 보여주며, 고상 NMR이 자연계에 존재하는 각종 유리질의 구조 분석에 효과적으로 적용될 수 있음을 제시한다.
