Selecting appropriate materials can be significantly important to make different image in the product and also give distinguished express to the users. A material for the ceramic product surface consists of the combination between a glaze and a body, and each attribution of materials and the way of the combination creates different texture and color. This study analyzes the difference between visually and tactually sensibility of ceramic surface to through the simulating both visual and tactual stimulation by verbal evaluation method. Totally 13 adjectives are selected from homepage of local and global ceramic product brand. And totally 12 ceramic samples are created with the consideration of color, glossiness and roughness. These 12 samples are the combination between four ceramic bodies (White porcelain, Celadon_c, Sancheong and Black soil) and three glazes (Transparent, Celadon_g, Black glaze). The respondents of first survey were asked to rub, touch and hold before evaluating the sensibility of ceramic surface and other respondents of second survey were asked to evaluate visual images of 9 samples which showed meaningfully difference from first survey. The surface which scored the highest sensibility with the first survey was 'pure' on a surface of White porcelain body with Transparent glaze, and the lowest was also 'pure' on a surface of Black soil body with Transparent glaze. The highest score in the second survey was the same result as the first survey, but the lowest scored 'casual' and the surface was Black soil body with Celadon glaze. By the comparison with two survey results, not every sensibility is same result shown as the first survey and the second survey, but the tactile sensibilities such as 'artistic', 'luxurious', 'sensuous', 'romantic' and 'mysterious' can be experienced by via visual materials of ceramic surfaces.

The main cystal phases of traditional ceramics made of clay, quartz, and feldspar are mullite and cristobalite. Although mullite can provide strength to the ceramic body, it cannot be used for the heat resistant ceramics because the thermal expansion coefficient of it is relatively high as 5.3 × 10^-6/℃. In this study, development of lightweight heat resistant ceramics was tried by producing cordierite phase, of which the thermal expansion coefficient is 2.6 × 10^-6/℃, instead of forming mullite phase in the ceramic body by using Sanchung Kaolin and Jangsu gobdol sludge. It was concluded that ceramics having good heat resistant, bending strength, and refractoriness under load could be fabricated when 80 wt% of Sanchung Kaolin and 20 wt% of Jangsu gobdol sludge were used as raw materials. Also, the bulk specific gravity is 1.78, which is lighter than the existing Buncheong ware.

Unstabilized Zirconia was added to basic composition under 44$mu extrm{m}$ of 57.80wt% Clay-22.20wt% Chamotte-20.00wt% Agalmatolite system. Here the amount and the particle size of Zirconia were 5-25wt% and -20${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ respectively and the body of these composition was first at 135$0^{\circ}C$. The results obtained from examining the properties of sintered body were as follows. 1. Firing linear shrinkage apparent density and bulk density apparent porosity and water absorption of the samples had the tend to increase according as the particle size of zirconia became larger and the amount of zirconia increased. 2. Modulus of rupture was inversely proportional to the particle size and the additive amount of zirconia, . Especially in case that the particle size of zirconia over 5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the additive amount of zirconia was 25wt% the modulus of rupture had shrunk drastically. 3. The maximum value of KIC was obtained at 20wt% additive amount of zirconia according to the each particle size of zirconia. Especially the highest value of KIC is 2, 173 M. Pa. M1/2 when the particle size of zirconia is 5~10${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the additive amount is 20wt%.

EAF (Electric Arc Furnace) dust is classified as special wastes containing heavy metal contaminants may cause to damage an environment such as underground water contamination if they were not treated properly. For reutilizing the EAF dust, the porous body was made from EAF dust/clay composition system, and analyzed pore characteristics. It was found that a light-aggregate body was made up two different microstructures. One was non-black and dense microstructure which located near surface, and the other was black and porous microstructure (black coring) which located inner part. For systematizing the relationship of the black-coring area and the bloating degree, we defined the Ic(core index) and Is(shell index). It was found that the optimal bloating conditions of artificial light-weight aggregate were more than 0.5 of Ic and 0.4 of Is.

the microstructure and mechanical properties of seeded and ball-milled dry gels prepared by boehmite sol-gel method were discussed. The densification of seeded gels was improved with increasing seed content namely the number of seed The number of seed was 1.09, 3.35, 5.72${\times}$1012/cm3 boehmite when seeded with 1, 3, 5wt% respectively The ball milled gel contained about 0.5wt% seed and the number of seed was 4.72${\times}$1012/cm3 boehmite. The sintered density of 5wt% seeded gel was below 80% when sintered at 1300$^{\circ}C$ for 1h. On the other hand that of ball milled gel was very improved and reached to 97% In the case of 3wt% seeded gels the density over 97% was attained when sintered at 1500$^{\circ}C$for 1h. and the grain of the sintered body was several micrometers in size. However the sintered body of ball milled gel showed grain size of submicrometer when sintered at 1300$^{\circ}C$ for 1h. And this specimen showed highest harness value of 1900kg/mm2 The fracture toughness increased with increasing sintering temperature. The sintered body of ball milled gel showed the largest grain size and the highest fracture toughness without regard to sint-ering temperature.

Alkaline-earth porcelains have been prepared from mixture of kaolin, quartz, and synthetic calcines obtained by calcining a mixture of kaolin and more than two different kinds of alkaline-earth carbonates. They were magnesium, calcium and barium carbonates which are inexpensive and readily available. The vitrification behavior of the batch mixes was investigated in the firing range of 1240$^{\circ}$to 1380$^{\circ}$, in relation to the body compositions. It appeared that the density and the firing temperature depended largely on the content of alkaline-earth oxides in the body. These porcelains posses excellant dielectric properties, and are especially valuable as bases for deposited carbon resistors for which they were developed. An illustrative composition is 50% Dong Hwa kaolin, 22.4% Chang Shin quartz, 27.6% calcine. The composition of the calcine is 70% Dong Hwa kaolin, 10.7% BaCO3, 13.5% CaCO3, 5.8% MgCO3. The specific resistance of this body is $1.2{\times}10^{15}$ ohm-cm at 5$0^{\circ}C$, $2.5{\times}10^{14}$ ohm-cm 10$0^{\circ}C$, $2.5{\times}10^{13}$ ohm-cm at 15$0^{\circ}C$, $1.8{\times}10^{12}$ohm-cm at 20$0^{\circ}C$.

Si(OC2H5)4, commercial AlN and Y2O3 powder were used as the precusor of Si3N4, AlN, Y2O3, respectively. After Si3N4 powder was synthesized by carbothermal reduction and nitridation at 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 13h in N2 atmosphere, characteristics of synthesized powder and the ceramics sintered at 178$0^{\circ}C$ for 1h under 30MPa were investigated. In order to evaluate the reliability of sintered body, Weibull modulus was investigated. Premixing of carbon black as a reduction agent had no effect on Si(OH)4 formation, and Si3N4 powder synthesized from Si(OC2H5)4 was $\alpha$-Si3N4 single phase. Mechanical properties of sintered body were measured as follows : flexural strength ; 750MPa, fracture toughness ; 3.71Mn/3/2, hardness : 17.4GPa, thermal shock resistence temperature ; $600^{\circ}C$. Flexural strength at room temperature was 750MPa and was retained up to 110$0^{\circ}C$. The Weibull modulus of sintered body was 10.7.

Sintering behavior and lightweight characteristics of porcelain by addition of FAHM (Fly-Ash Hollow Microsphere) were evaluated. Green body of Backja composition (general porcelain) in which FAHM was added(15 and 20 wt%) was made by slip casting method. The green body was sintered at 1270 and $1290^{\circ}C$ and maintained for 1h. The bulk density and linear shrinkage of the sintered body with FAHM (20 wt%) decreased. As the contents of FAHM. increased, mullite and cristobalite phases increased. In the microstructure, FAHM shells remained after sintering, and the generation of mullite fibers around FAHM shells also were confirmed. the weight of porcelain with of 20% FAHM decreased by 40% and residual FAHM shells promoted the mullite of generation in the matrix.

The Effect of Dditives $ZrO_2$ and $TiO_2$ on the enstatite body the composition of which was MgO.$SiO_2$ has been closely investigated on the physical properties and microstructure. $ZrO_2$ and $TiO_2$ as additives were added by weight 5, 10, 15, 20, 25% and 1, 2, 2.5, 5, 10, 20% respectively to the mixture (MgO : SiO2=1:1) and fired at the temperature ranging from 130$0^{\circ}C$ to 145$0^{\circ}C$ and 1275$^{\circ}C$ to 1375$^{\circ}C$. Increasing the add ition or $ZrO_2$ to 20% the physical property became better. In case of $TiO_2$ the sample containing 20% $TiO_2$ had a best effect on the enstastite body. The optimum firing range proved to 14$25^{\circ}C$ for $ZrO_2$ and 1325~135$0^{\circ}C$ for $TiO_2$. The effect of $ZrO_2$ and $TiO_2$ addition on the thermal expansion was observed not ot be remarkable.

Si3N4 with 6w/o Y2O3 and 1.5w/o Al2O3 has been gas pressure sintered and its densification behavior and the effect of the sintering variables on the microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. Densification rate was higher at temperature below 1775$^{\circ}C$ and between 187$0^{\circ}C$ and 195$0^{\circ}C$ than between 1775$^{\circ}C$ and 187$0^{\circ}C$. The faster densification at temperature between 187$0^{\circ}C$ and 195$0^{\circ}C$ was thought to be due to the increased amount of liquid phase resulting from the increased amount of Si3N4 dissolving in the liquid. $\beta$-Si3N4 and Y-disilicate at temperatures below 1775$^{\circ}C$, and only $\beta$-Si3N4 at 187$0^{\circ}C$ and above were detected by XRD analysis. Three different two-step schedules were employed to obtain sintered body with above 99% theoretical density and to investigate the effect of the sintering variables on the density, the microstructure and the mechanical properties of the sintered body. The sintered density did not change with the heating rate, and the microstructure became coarser as the temperature increased. The strength decreased with the width of $\beta$-Si3N4 grain, while the fracture toughness increased with the square root of it. A ceramic cutting tool made of the sintered body showed an uniform flank wear after the cutting test.
