In this study, a monolithic MoSi2 matrix reinforced with 20 vol% SiC particles, a SiC/MoSi2 composite matrix reinforced with 20 vol% ZrO2 particles, and a ZrO2/MoSi2 composite were fabricated using hot press sintering at $1350^{\circ}C$ for 1 h under a pressure of 30 MPa. The Vickers hardness and sliding wear resistance of the monolithic MoSi2, ZrO2/MoSi2, and SiC/MoSi2 composite were investigated at room temperature. A wear behavior test was carried out using a disk-type wear tester with a silicon nitride ball. The ZrO2/MoSi2 composite showed an average Vickers hardness value and excellent wear resistance compared with the monolithic MoSi2 and SiC/MoSi2 composite at room temperature.

Hardness characteristics and microstructures of $Nb/MoSi_2$ laminate composites were evaluated from the variation of fabricating conditions such as preparation temperature, applied pressure and pressure holding time. $Nb/MoSi_2$ laminate composites composed of $MoSi_2$ powder and Nb sheets were fabricated by the hot press. From experimental results, it was found that the lamination from Nb sheet and $MoSi_2$ powder was an excellent strategy to improve hardness characteristics of monolithic $MoSi_2$. However, interfacial reaction products like(Nb, Mo)$SiO_2\;and\;Nb2Si_3$ formed at the interface of $Nb/MoSi_2$ and increased with fabricating temperature.

The current concern about these materials ($MoSi_2$ and $NbSi_2$) focuses on their low fracture toughness below the ductile-brittle transition temperature. To improve the mechanical properties of these materials, the fabrication of nanostructured and composite materials has been found to be effective. Nanomaterials frequently possess high strength, high hardness, excellent ductility and toughness, and more attention is being paid to their potential application. In this study, nanopowders of Mo, Nb, and Si were fabricated by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanostructured $MoSi_2-NbSi_2$ composite was simultaneously synthesized and sintered within two minutes by high-frequency induction heating method using mechanically activated powders of Mo, Nb, and Si. The high-density $MoSi_2-NbSi_2$ composite was produced under simultaneous application of 80MPa pressure and an induced current. The sintering behavior, mechanical properties, and microstructure of the composite were investigated. The average hardness and fracture toughness values obtained were $1180kg/mm^2$ and $3MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively. These fracture toughness and hardness values of the nanostructured $MoSi_2-NbSi_2$ composite are higher than those of monolithic $MoSi_2$ or $NbSi_2$.

[ $Nb/MoSi_2$ ]laminate composites have been successfully fabricated by hot pressing in a graphite mould. Lamination of Nb foil and $MoSi_2$ layer showed a sufficient improvement in the absorbed impact energy compared to that of monolithic $MoSi_2$ material. The impact value of $Nb/MoSi_2$ laminate composites obviously is reduced when sintered at temperatures higher than 1523K, even if the composite density contributing to impact load increased along with fabricating temperatures. Impact value of laminate composites was also drastically decreased with the growth of reaction layer after the heat treatment. However, it was effective to increase the pressure at the same sintering temperature for the improvement of the impact value.

Nanopowders of Mo, Ta and Si were made by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanostructured $MoSi_2-TaSi_2$ composite was sintered by the high-frequency induction heated combustion method within 2 minutes from mechanically activated powder of Mo, Ta and Si.

MoSi$_2$-TiC composite powders were fabricated by in-situ reaction through mechanical alloying. Also the monolithic MoSi$_2$ as well as TiC were synthesiced by mechanical alloying for comparison. An abrupt increase of vial surface temperature was detected due to a sudden reaction between elemental powders during milling. The reaction time for synthesis of composite powders decreased with increasing the content of (Ti+C) powder. It was found that a significant decrease of Ti grain size was observed with increasing the milling time. And the synthesis reaction of MoSi$_2$-TiC composite powders were largely dependent on the reaction between Ti and C powders.

This paper describes the machining characteristics of the MoSi$_2$--based composites through the process of electric discharge drilling with various tubular electrodes. In addition to hardness characteristics, microstructures of Nb/MoSi$_2$laminate composites were evaluated from the variation of fabricating conditions, such as preparation temperature, applied pressure, and pressure holding time. MoSi$_2$-based composites have been developed in new materials for jet engines of supersonic-speed airplanes and gas turbines for high-temperature generators. These high performance engines may require new hard materials with high strength and high temperature-resistance. Also, with the exception of grinding, traditional machining methods are not applicable to these new materials. Electric discharge machining (EDM) is a thermal process that utilizes a spark discharge to melt a conductive material. The tool electrode is almost -unloaded, because there is n direct contact between the tool electrode and the work piece. By combining a non-conducting ceramic with more conducting ceramic, it was possible to raise the electrical conductivity. From experimental results, it was found that the lamination from Nb sheet and MoSi$_2$ powder was an excellent strategy to improve hardness characteristics of monolithic MoSi$_2$. However, interfacial reaction products, like (Nb, Mo)SiO$_2$and Nb$_2$Si$_3$formed at the interface of Nb/MoSi$_2$, and increased with fabricating temperature. MoSi$_2$composites, with which a hole drilling was not possible through the conventional machining process, enhanced the capacity of ED-drilling by adding MbSi$_2$, relative to that of SiC or ZrO$_2$reinforcements.

당일수복 보철물 제작을 위해 디지털 프로세스 사용은 필수적이다. 이러한 디지털 프로세스는 구강스캔, 컴퓨터를 이용한 보철물을 디자인 과정(CAD)과 보철물을 가공하는 과정(CAM)을 포함한다. 지르코니아의 굴곡강도는 900Mpa로 리튬디실리케이트의 400MPa보다 더 단단하지만, 리튬디실리케이트를 이용한 보철물 기공시간이 지르코니아와 비교하여 더 짧기에 당일수복 보철물 제작시 리튬디실리케이트 사용이 선호되었다. 하지만, TZI C 와 LUXEN Enamel 와 같은 새로운 소재의 지르코니아가 출시되고, 새로운 소결방식이 개발되어 지르코니아 기공시간을 단축시킬수 있게 되었고, 높은 투명도의 풀지르코니아 크라운을 짧은 시간 안에 제작할 수 있게 되었다. 이러한 발전은 당일 풀지르코니아 보철수복을 현실로 이끌고 있다.
