Effect of starting SiC particle size on nitridation rate and flexural strength of $Si_3N_4$-bonded-SiC (SNBSC) ceramics was investigated by using SiC particles of different size (${\sim}200\;{\mu}m$, ${\sim}100\;{\mu}m$ and ${\sim}45\;{\mu}m$). The specimen prepared from smaller SiC particles resulted in higher nitridation rate after nitridation at $1450^{\circ}C$, owing to the lower packing density in green body. The flexural strength showed maxima after 1-h nitridation for all specimens and then decreased with prolonged nitridation because of local densification-induced pore coarsening. The specimen prepared from smaller SiC particles showed better flexural strength because of smaller pore size and partly higher nitridation rate in the specimen. A maximal flexural strength of 29 MPa was obtained in the specimen with a density of $2.04\;g{\cdot}cm^3$, which was prepared from $45\;{\mu}m$-SiC particles.

The effect of compositional and processing variables on a nitriding reaction of silicon powder compact and subsequent post sintering of RBSN (Reaction-Bonded Silicon Nitride) was investigated. The addition of a nitriding agent enhanced nitridation rate substantially at low temperatures, while the formation of a liquid phase between the nitriding agent and the sintering additives at a high temperature caused a negative catalyst effect resulting in a decreased nitridation rate. A liquid phase formed by solely an additive, however, was found to have no effect on nitridation for the additive amount used in this research. The original site of a decomposing pore former was loosely filled by a reaction product ($Si_3N_4$), which provided a specimen with nitriding gas passage. For SRBSN (Sintered RBSN) specimens of high porosity, only a marginal dimensional change was measured after post sintering. Its engineering implication for near-net shaping ability is discussed.

In this study, AlN powder of fine particle size and of high purity was synthesized by the carbothermal reduction-nitridation of monodisperse, spherical Al(OH)3 which had been prepared by sol-gel method using Al(O-sec-C4H9)3 as the starting material. Depending on the mixing order and kinds of reducing agents, the optimum condition for the preparation of AlN was determined as follows. AlN single-phase was produced by the carbothermal reduction-nitridation of (1) Benzene-washed Al(OH)3 and the reducing agent, carbon, which was mixed in a ball mill: for 5 hours at 140$0^{\circ}C$ under NH3 atmosphere; (2) The mixture prepared by hydrolysis of alkoxide solution into which carbon had been dispersed beforehand: for 5 hours at 135$0^{\circ}C$ ; (3) Al(OH)3 Poly(furfuryl alcohol) composite powder: for 2.5 hours at 135$0^{\circ}C$; (4) The mixture of Al(OH)3 and polyacrylonitrile: for 5 hours at 140$0^{\circ}C$. Addition of CaF2 increased the nitridation rate when carbon or polyacrylonitrile was used as the reducing agent; but it had no effect on the nitridation rate when furfuryl alcohol was used as the reducing agent.

HVPE는 GaN 단결정의 제조 방법 중 하나로 빠른 성장 속도가 장점인 상업적으로 널리 사용되는 성장 방법이다. HVPE 법에 의한 GaN 단결정 성장은 여러 공정으로 이루어지며, 특히 GaN 성장 전 기판의 질화 처리는 성장되는 GaN 단결정 품질에 상당한 영향을 미친다. 본 연구에서는 사파이어 기판 위에 GaN 단결정 성장 시 기판의 질화처리가 성장되는 GaN 단결정 품질에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 질화 처리를 제외한 다른 성장 조건은 동일하게 하였고 질화처리 시 기판에 공급되는 가스 유량을 다양하게 변화시킨 후 GaN 박막을 성장시키고, 성장된 GaN의 표면 특성평가를 통하여, HVPE 법에서의 질화처리 효과를 고찰하여 보고자 하였다.

This paper deals with the reaction-bonded silicon nitride I terms of its microstructural development during nitrida-tion. Silicon powder compacts were reacted with nitrogen at 1185$^{\circ}C$ and 13$65^{\circ}C$ according to the nitriding schedule. Microstructures of nitrided specimens were examined by means of optical and scanning electron microscope to discuss the nitridation or microstructural development at initial and intermediat stage of nitridation. Reaction products were also analysed by X-ray diffraction method at each stage of nitridation. The results indicate that ho-mogeneous and uniform microstructure with find porosity can be obtained only under the reaction condition. such as slow and relatively constant reaction rate with time.

In order to synthesize fine AlN powder by the direct nitridation of Aluminum metal power added LiF and BaF2 as additives was heated at 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs. in nitrogen gas with flow rate of 20 mι/sec. Additives are promoted the nitridation by prevented the aggromerate of powders when 3% LiF and 2% BaF2 were added to Al metal powder. Rate of nitridation was about 100% and average size of AlN powders were very fine such as 0.3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Specific surface area of synthesized AlN powder was 3.95$m^2$/g and also O2 and N2 contents were 2.595% and 33.25%, respectively.

In order to enhance the rate of th nitridation and to give the high density of reaction-bonded silicon nitride MgO powder as nitriding aid were added to silicon powders and the mixture was pressed isostatically into compacts which were nitrided in the furnace of 1, 35$0^{\circ}C$ where 95% $N_2$-5% $H_2$ gases were flowing. As the other nitriding aid $Mg(NO_3)_2 6H_2O$ was selected, A slip made of magnesium nitrate solution and fine silicon particles was spray-dried and then decomposed at 30$0^{\circ}C$. Magnesium oxide-coated silicon powders were formed into compacts prior to the nitridation on the same condition as the former. Magnesium nitrate (MgO, produced from the decomposition of magnesium nitrate) was more effective for the formation of the $\beta$-phase in the initial stage of the nitridation probably due to the easy formation of $MgO-SiO_2$-metal oxide eutectic melt. It has been confirmed that forsterite was formed as a result of the reaction between MgO and $SiO_2$ film of silicon surface. It was considered that MgO produced from magnesium nitrate may be finer more reactive and more uniformly distributed on the surface of silicon particles than original MgO. The higher the forming pressure was the more the $\beta$-phase was formed.

The nitridation kinetics of titanium powder were studied by isothermal and non-isothermal (dynamic) methods in high purity nitrogen under I atm pressure. For the comparison with nitridation, the oxidation kinetics of titanium powder were also studied in dry oxygen at I atm pressure. An automatic recording electrobalance was used to measure the weight gain as a function of time and temperature. For the reaction with nitrogen, the nitride was formed at over $700^{\circ}C$. The reaction with nitrogen followed the parabolic rate law, and the activation energy was calculated to be 31 kcal/mol in the isothermal method (above $900^{\circ}C$). The non-stoichiometric TiNx has been synthesized by the nitridation at a proper temperature and time, followed by the homogenizing treatment above $1100^{\circ}C$. In comparison with the stoichiometric $TiN_{1.0}$ and the non-stoichiometric TiNx ($TiN_{0.5}$ and $TiN_{0.65}$), the hot oxidation characteristics of the former is superior to that of the latter. However, both non-stoichiometric nitrides make little difference in the hot oxidation characteristics.

탄소환원질화법을 이용하여 질화알루미늄(Aluminum Nitride: AlN)을 제조하는 연구를 실험실 규모로 수행하였다. 고품위 알루미나 분말과 탄소(carbon black)를 배합하여 흑연 도가니에 장입하고, 노내 분위기를 진공으로 한 다음 질소 가스를 흘려주어 온도($1,600{\sim}1,700^{\circ}C$), 시간(0.5~6 hr), $N_2$유량($4.7{\times}10^{-6}{\sim}20{\times}10^{-6}m^3/sec$), 장입 시료층 높이(0.5~20 mm)를 변화시키면서 AlN을 합성하였다. 실험결과, 고순도 알루미나와 탄소 혼합물을 질소 분위기의 $1600{\sim}1700^{\circ}C$ 온도 범위에서 반응시킬 때 반응 온도가 높을수록 생성된 AlN의 1차 입자 크기가 커지고, 반응 활성화 에너지는 382 kJ/mol로 화학 반응이 율속 단계로 판단되었다. 시험 제조한 AlN들의 산소 함량은 0.71~0.96 wt%였고, 질소는 30.7~35.1 wt%로서 상용 제품과 근접한 결과를 나타내었다.
