Recently, the necessity of designing and applying tool materials that perform machining of difficult-to-cut materials in a cryogenic treatment where demand is increasing. The objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of cryogenically treated WC-5 wt% NbC hard materials fabricated by a pulsed current activated sintering process. The densely consolidated specimens are cryogenically exposed to liquid nitrogen for 6, 12, and 24 h. All cryogenically treated samples exhibit compressive stress in the sintered body compared with the untreated sample. Furthermore, a change in the lattice constant leads to compressive stress in the specimens, which improves their mechanical performance. The cryogenically treated samples exhibit significant improvement in mechanical properties, with a 10.5 % increase in Vickers hardness and a 60 % decrease in the rupture strength compared with the untreated samples. However, deep cryogenic treatment of over 24 h deteriorates the mechanical properties indicating that excessive treatment causes tensile stress in the specimens. Therefore, the cryogenic treatment time should be controlled precisely to obtain mechanically enhanced hard materials.

In the present study, we investigated the formation of self-organized nanostructure oxide layers on CP Ti and Ti-10Ta-10Nb alloy in an electrolyte of 1M phosphoric acid and 1.5 wt% Hydrofluoric acid. The morphology of oxide film on substrate was observed using scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy The surface roughness of titanium oxide film was analyzed by atomic force microscopy and the crystalline of specimen was investigated using X-ray diffractometer. The results of this study showed that well-aligned titanium oxide nanotubes are formed with diameter of approx. 100nm and length of approx. 500nm with CP Ti. However, it is clear that TiTaNb alloy highly irregular structure with various diameters. Transmission electron microscope investigations show that the specimens were confirmed as amorphous. Such titanium oxide nanotubes are expected a well-adhered bioacitive surface layer on titanium substrate for orthopedics and dental implants.

The microwave dielectric properties and low temperature sintering of $Ca[Ti_{1-x}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_x]O_3$ system were investigated at the sintering temperature $1,200\~1,350^{\circ}C$. The density and quality factors $(Q{\times}f)$ increased while dielectric constants slightly decreased with the decrease of Ti. The dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonance frequency $(\tau_f)$ were 64, 17,000 GHz, and $-9.1\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ respectively, when $CaTi_{1/2}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{1/2}O_3$ ceramics were sintered at $1,300^{\circ}C$ for 4 h. $2Li_2O-B_2O_3$ was added to $CaTi_{1/2}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{1/2}O_3$ to decrease the sintering temperature for LTCC application. The microwave dielectric properties of the samples sintered at $925^{\circ}C$ for 2 h with the addition of $6\;wt\%\;2Li_2O-B_2O_3$ were $\varepsilon_r=48.7,\;Q{\times}f=8,460\;GHz$, and $\tau_f=+5.6ppm/^{\circ}C$. Compatibility test of the composition with silver electrode shows no reaction with silver electrode, implying the feasibility as a high-K LTCC material.

SCr420H steel which is commonly utilized for automotive components requires the carburizing heat treatment process. Abnormal grain growth during this treatment significantly affects the mechanical properties of the steel parts. Consequently, a process designed to prevent abnormal grain growth at certain elevated temperatures is essential. For enhanced grain refinement, we considered the addition of Nb in SCr420H steel. The experimental condition of the carburizing heat treatment involved reheating the steel sample to temperatures between 940℃ and 1080℃. Using scanning electron microscopy, we examined the microstructure of specimens treated with the secondary solution, revealing an organization of bainite and ferrite. Transmission electron microscopy was utilized to determine the type, shape, and size of the carbonitrides, showing a high fraction of AlN at the secondary solution treatment temperature of approximately 1050℃ and of (Nb,Ti)(C,N) around 1200℃. AlN particles measured about 100 nm and (Nb,Ti)(C,N) about 50 nm. Optical microscopy was utilized to assess grain size variations at different secondary solution treatment temperatures. It is noted that the temperature at which abnormal grain coarsening occurred rose with increasing secondary solution treatment temperatures, indicating a greater influence of (Nb,Ti)(C,N) with higher heat treatment temperatures. This research provides reference data for preventing abnormal grain growth in Nb-added low alloy steels undergoing carburizing heat treatment.

물의 광분해에 의한 수소생산을 위하여 이산화티타늄($TiO_2$)과 산화니오븀($Nb_2O_5$)을 이용하여 가시광선 감응 광촉매 개발을 본 연구의 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위하여 요소를 이용한 질소 도핑한 $TiO_2$, $Nb_2O_5$, $HNb_3O_8$ ($TiO_2-N$, $Nb_2O_5-N$와 $HNb_3O_8-N$)을 제조하였다. 그 결과 질소 도핑이 광촉매의 띠간격 에너지를 감소시킴으로써 excitation파장이 자외선 영역에서 가시광선 영역으로 이동한 것을 reflectance 관찰을 통해 알 수 있었다. 특히 $TiO_2-N$의 경우 띠 간격 에너지가 3.3 eV ($TiO_2$)에서 2.72 eV로 가장 큰 감소를 보였다. 또한, 가시광선 영역에서 로다민 B 광분해 반응을 통하여 광촉매의 활성도를 평가하였을 때, 질소 도핑한 경우($Nb_2O_5-N$와 $HNb_3O_8-N$)는 모두 80% 이상의 분해 효율을 나타내었으며 특히 $TiO_2-N$이 약 99.8%의 높은 분해율을 보여주었다. 그러나 질소 도핑을 하지 않은 $TiO_2$와 $Nb_2O_5$의 경우, 약 10% 의 로다민 B가 분해된 것으로 관찰되었다. 또한 가시광선 영역에서 각 촉매의 광전류 생성을 비교해보았을 때, $HNb_3O_8-N$ ($63.7mA/cm^2$)이 가장 높은 전류 반응을 나타내었으며 물의 광분해에 의한 수소생산량을 비교해보면 $Nb_2O_5-N$이 $19.4{\mu}mol/h$의 가장 많은 양을 생산한 것으로 나타났다.

B$_2$O$_3$ added Ba(Mg$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$ (BBMN) ceramics were not sintered below 900 $^{\circ}C$. However, when CuO was added to the BBMN ceramic, it was sintered even at 850 $^{\circ}C$. The amount of the $Ba_2$B$_2$O$_{5}$ second phase decreased with the addition of CuO. Therefore, the CuO additive is considered to react with the B$_2$O$_3$ inhibiting the reaction between B$_2$O$_3$ and BaO. Moreover, it is suggested that the solid solution of CuO and B$_2$O$_3$ might be responsible for the decrease of the sintering temperature of the specimens. A dense microstructure without pores was developed with the addition of a small amount of CuO. However, a porous microstructure with large pores was formed when a large amount of CuO was added. The bulk density, the dielectric constant ($\varepsilon$$_{r}$) and the Q-value increased with the addition of CuO but they decreased when a large amount of CuO was added. The variations of those properties are closely related to the variation of the microstructure. The excellent microwave dielectric properties of Qxf = 21500 GHz, $\varepsilon$$_{r}$ = 31 and temperature coefficient of resonance frequency($\tau$$_{f}$) = 21.3 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ were obtained for the Ba(Mg$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_3$+2.0 mol%B$_2$O$_3$+10.0 mol%CuO ceramic sintered at 875 $^{\circ}C$ for 2 h.h.2 h.h.

Effects of electric-field-induced lattice distortion on the polarization and strain were investigated in Pb(Mg/sub 1/3/Nb/sub 2/3)O₃ relaxor ferroelectric ceramics in the temperature range of -50℃∼90℃. The ratio of residual strain and polarization (S/sub r//P/sub r/ rarely depends on the temperature. However, the ratio of the electric field included strain and polarization (S/sub induced//P/sub induced/) increased as the temperature decreases below phase transition temperature. To explain these experimental results, a simple rigid ion model concentrating on only Bo/sub 6/ octahedron was suggested.
