방전 플라즈마 소결법을 이용하여 건전한 강도를 갖는 다공성 육티탄산 칼륨 휘스커 프리폼을 제조하기 위해서, 여러 소결온도 조건하에서 휘스커 프리폼을 제조한 후 기공률과 압축강도 등을 조사하였다. 그 결과, 소결 온도 900∼950${\circ}C$, 유지시간 10분, 압축하중 40 MPa, 승온속도 50${\circ}C$/min, on-off pulse type 12:2의 조건에서 높은 기공률을 갖는 프리폼을 제조할 수 있었다. 이상의 최적조건에서 제조한 프리폼은 기공률이 15∼37% 범위임에도 불구하고 174∼266 MPa의 비교적 높은 압축강도를 나타내었다. 이와 같은 강도의 향상은 휘스커간의 스파크 플라즈마 방전 및 자기 발열작용의 영향에 기인한 것으로 생각된다. 900${\circ}C$ 이하에서 제조한 휘스커 프리폼의 강도 레벨은 80∼100MPa로 900∼950${\circ}C$의 온도조건에서 제조한 프리폼에 비해 2배 이하의 낮은 값을 나타내었다. 1000 ${\circ}C$에서의 압축강도는 523 MPa로 가장 높은 강도값을 나타내었으나, 약 5%의 낮은 기공률을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로부터, 비교적 강도가 높고 다공성의 티탄산 칼륨 휘스커를 제조하는데 있어 방전 플라즈마 소결법이 효과적인 것으로 생각된다.

The family of (Sr,Mg)-doped $LaGaO_3$ compounds, which exhibit high ionic conductivity at $600-800^{\circ}C$ over a wide range of oxygen partial pressure, appears to be promising as the electrolyte for intermediate temperature solid oxide fuel cells. Conventional synthesis routes of (Sr,Mg)-doped $LaGaO_3$ compounds based on solid state reaction have some problems such as the formation of impurity phases, long sintering time and Ga loss during high temperature sintering. Phase stability problem especially, the formation of additional phases at the grain boundary is detrimental to the electrical properties of the electrolyte. From this point of view, we focused to synthesize single phase (Sr,Mg)-doped $LaGaO_3$ electrolyte at the stage of powder synthesis and to apply relatively low heat-treatment temperature using novel synthesis route based on combustion method. The synthesized powder and sintered bulk electrolytes were characterized by XRD, TG-DTA, FT-IR and SEM. AC impedance spectroscopy was used to characterize the electrical transport properties of the electrolyte with the consideration of the contribution of the bulk lattice and grain boundary to the total conductivity. Finally, relationship between synthesis condition and electrical properties of the (Sr, Mg)-doped $LaGaO_3$ electrolytes was discussed with the consideration of phase analysis results.

The pure CrN powders oxidized to $Cr_2O_3$ noticeably above $850^{\circ}C$ in air. When these powders were sintered into bulk samples at $1500^{\circ}C$ under 40 atm of $N_2$ pressure, the CrN phase partly changed into the $Cr_2N$ phase, owing to the partial loss of nitrogen from CrN. When the bulk sample was heated at $1000-1200^{\circ}C$ for 100 hr under vacuum, the CrN phase also progressively changed into $Cr_2N$. At the same time, a relatively thin $Cr_2O_3$ layer formed on the bulk sample due to the reaction of chromium with residual oxygen in vacuum.

To substitute indium tin oxide (ITO), many substituents have been studied such as metal nanowires, carbon based materials, 2D materials, and conducting polymers. These materials are not good enough to apply to an electrode because theses exhibit relatively high resistance. So metal grids are required as an additionalelectrode to improve the conductivities of substituents. The metal grids were printed by electrohydrodynamic printing system using Ag nanoparticle based ink. The Ag grids showed high uniformity and the line width was about $10{\mu}m$. The Ag nanoparticles are surrounded by dispersants such as unimolecular and polymer to prevent aggregation between Ag nanoparticles. The dispersants lead to low conductivity of Ag grids. Thus, the sintering process of Ag nanoparticles is strongly recommended to remove dispersants and connect each nanoparticles. For sintering process, the interface and microstructure of the Ag grid were controlled in 1.0 torr Ar atmosphere at aound $400^{\circ}C$ of temperature. From the sintering process, the uniformity of the Ag grid was improved and the defects on the Ag grids were reduced. As a result, the resistivity of Ag grid was greatly reduced up to $5.03({\pm}0.10){\times}10^{-6}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$. The metal grids embedded substrates containing low pressure Ar sintered Ag grids showed 90.4% of transmittance in visible range with $0.43{\Omega}/{\square}$ of sheet resistance.

The effects of compaction pressure and sintering temperature on the densification of Fe-40wt%Ni alloy nanoparticles were analyzed. The Fe-Ni nanoparticles were fabricated by an arc-discharge method and then, compacted at three different pressures and sintered at 550 to $900\;^{\circ}C$. Densification was completed at temperature as low as $600\;^{\circ}C$ and high-pressure compaction was found to enhance densification. Densification behaviors and microstructure developments have been investigated through density measurements, electron microscopies, and hardness measurements.

$ZrO_2$ is a candidate material for hip and knee joint replacements because of its excellent combination of biocompatibility, corrosion resistance and low density. However, the drawback of pure $ZrO_2$ is a low fracture toughness at room temperature. One of the most obvious tactics to cope with this problem is to fabricate a nanostructured composite material. Nanomaterials can be produced with improved mechanical properties(hardness and fracture toughness). The high-frequency induction heated sintering method takes advantage of simultaneously applying induced current and mechanical pressure during sintering. As a result, nanostructured materials can be achieved within very short time. In this study, W and $ZrO_2$ nanopowders are mechanochemically synthesized from $WO_3$ and Zr powders according to the reaction($WO_3+3/2Zr{\rightarrow}W+3/2ZrO_2$). The milled powders are then sintered using high-frequency induction heating within two minutes under the uniaxial pressure of 80MPa. The average fracture toughness and hardness of the nanostructured W-3/2 $ZrO_2$ composite sintered at $1300^{\circ}C$ are $540kg/mm^2$ and $5MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively. The fracture toughness of the composite is higher than that of monolithic $ZrO_2$. The phase and microstructure of the composite is also investigated by XRD and FE-SEM.

This study investigates the microstructure and thermal shock properties of polycrystalline diamond compact (PDC) produced by the high-temperature, high-pressure (HPHT) process. The diamond used for the investigation features a $12{\sim}22{\mu}m$- and $8{\sim}16{\mu}m$-sized main particles, and $1{\sim}2{\mu}m$-sized filler particles. The filler particle ratio is adjusted up to 5~31% to produce a mixed particle, and then the tap density is measured. The measurement finds that as the filler particle ratio increases, the tap density value continuously increases, but at 23% or greater, it reduces by a small margin. The mixed particle described above undergoes an HPHT sintering process. Observation of PDC microstructures reveals that the filler particle ratio with high tap density value increases direct bonding among diamond particles, Co distribution becomes even, and the Co and W fraction also decreases. The produced PDC undergoes thermal shock tests with two temperature conditions of 820 and 830, and the results reveals that PDC with smaller filler particle ratio and low tap density value easily produces cracks, while PDC with high tap density value that contributes in increased direct bonding along with the higher diamond content results in improved thermal shock properties.

본 연구에서는 불순물 첨가에 따른 MgO의 소결에 대한 물성변화를 확인하고자 99.9%순도, 300nm크기의 MgO 파우더에 고순도의 CaO를 0wt%, 0.25wt%, 0.50wt% 첨가하여 7GPa의 초고압 하에서 각각 $600^{\circ}C$~$800^{\circ}C$로 5분간 소결을 진행하였다. MgO(-CaO) 소결체의 미세구조와 기계적 물성 변화 확인을 위해 scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffractometry(XRD), Vickers 경도, 밀도 측정을 진행하였다. SEM 분석 결과 처리전 300nm 의 MgO 응집체는 $800^{\circ}C$ 고압소결 후 CaO첨가와 관련 없이 모두 약 520nm 입도의 소결체가 되었다. XRD 분석결과 CaO상 자체는 확인할 수 없었으나 CaO고용에 따른 MgO 피크의 쉬프트에 의해 CaO의 존재를 확인할 수 있었다. 비커스 경도치 확인결과 CaO를 첨가하지 않은 MgO 소결체에 비해 동일 온도조건에서 약 12% 증가하였으며 비슷한 경도치를 얻기 위해 소결온도를 약 $100^{\circ}C$이상 낮출 수 있었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 밀도 측정결과 $600^{\circ}C$의 낮은 온도조건 하에서도 CaO를 첨가하지 않은 MgO 소결체에 비해 약 5%이상 증가한 98%이상의 효과적인 소결밀도를 얻을 수 있었다.

The pulsed current activated sintering method (PCAS) is a new rapid sintering method that was developed recently for fabricating ceramics and composites. This method combines a high temperature for a short time with pressure application. In this work, PCAS was used to fabricate $WC-5wt%Mo_2C-5wt%$ Co hard material using WC, $Mo_2C$, and Co. The $WC-Mo_2C-Co$ was almost completely dense with a relative density of up to 100% after the simultaneous application of a pressure of 60 MPa and electric current for 11 min without grain growth. The average grain size of WC that was produced through PCAS was about $0.5-0.6{\mu}m$. The vickers hardness and fracture toughness of the $WC-5wt%Mo_2C-5wt%$Co hard materials were about $2453.5kg/mm^2$ and $7.9MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively, for 60 MPa at $11200^{\circ}C$.
