Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic coating layer by gas flame spraying was very porous, therefore it could not have wear and corrosion resistance at all. To get a dense and strong coating layer, a method to infiltrate an alloy into the pores of $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic coating was investigated. Cu-Ti alloys, which had good wettability and reactivity with $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic, were examined for infiltration. Infiltration of the alloys was performed in vacuum at 1100.deg.C. The melt of Cu-50 at % Ti alloy was well penetrated through the porous $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ coating and tightly sealed the pores, unbounded area and microcracks in the coating. The alloy melt in the pores reacted with $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic to produce a suboxide phase, Cu$_{2}$Ti$_{4}$O. This composite layer which was composed of $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$ and Cu$_{2}$Ti$_{4}$O phase had good microstructure and wear and corrosion resistance. Additionally, microstructures at interfaces between coating layers were greatly improved owing to the effect of vacuum heat treating.

Porous hydroxyapatite(HA) and HA-coated porous $Al_2O_3$ possessing pore characteristics required for bone substitutes were prepared by a slurry foaming method combined with gelcasting. The HA coating was deposited by heating porous $Al_2O_3$ substrates in an aqueous solution containing $Ca^{2+}$ and ${PO_4}^{3-}$ ions at $65{\sim}95^{\circ}C$ under ambient pressure. The pore characteristic, microstructure, and compressive strength were investigated and compared for the two kinds of samples. The porosity of the samples was about 81% and 80% for HA and $Al_2O_3$, respectively with a highly interconnected network of spherical pores with size ranging from 50 to $250{\mu}m$. The porous $Al_2O_3$ sample showed much higher compressive strength(25 MPa) than the porous HA sample(10 MPa). Fairly dense and uniform HA coating(about $2{\mu}m$ thick) was deposited on the porous $Al_2O_3$ sample. Since the compressive strength of cancellous bone is $2{\sim}12$ MPa, both the porous HA and HA-coated porous $Al_2O_3$ samples could be successfully utilized as scaffolds for bone repair. Especially the latter is expected suitable for load bearing bone substitutes due to its excellent strength.

A porous $Al_2O_3$, scaffold coated with tricalcium phosphate(TCP) was fabricated by replica method using polyurethane(PU) foam as a fugitive material. Successive coatings of $Al_2O_3$ and hydroxyapatite(HAp) were applied via dip coating onto polyurethane foam, which has a slender and well interconnected network. A porous structure was obtained after sequentially burning out the foam and then sintering at $1500^{\circ}C$. The HAp phase was changed to TCP phase at high temperature. The scaffold showed excellent interconnected porosity with pore sizes ranging from $300{\sim}700{\mu}m$ in diameter. The inherent well interconnected structural feature of PU foam remained intact in the fabricated porous scaffold, where the PU foam material was entirely replaced by $Al_2O_3$ and TCP through a consecutive layering process. Thickness of the $Al_2O_3$ base and the TCP coating was about $7{\sim}10{\mu}m$ each. The TCP coating was homogeneously dispersed on the surface of the $Al_2O_3$ scaffold.

Catalytic combustion is one of the suitable methods for micro power source due to high energy density and it can be applied to micro structured chamber without consideration of quenching since it is flameless combustion. Catalyst loading in the micro structured combustion chamber is one of the most important issues in the development of micro catalytic combustors. In this research, to coat catalyst on the chamber wall, two methods were investigated. First, $Al_2O_3$ was selected as a support of Pt and $Pt/Al_2O_3$ was synthesized through the alumina sol-gel procedure. To improve the coating thickness and adhesion between catalyst and substrate, heat resistant and water solvable organic-inorganic hybrid binder was used. Porous silicon was also investigated as a catalyst support for platinum. Through the parametric studies of current density and etching time, fabrication process of $1{\sim}2{\mu}m$ of diameter and about $25{\mu}m$ depth pores was confirmed. Coated substrates were test in the micro channel combustor which was fabricated by the wet etching and machining of SUS 304. Using $Pt/Al_2O_3$ coated substrate and Pt coated porous silicon substrate, conversion rate of fuel was over 95 % for $H_2/Air$ premixed gas.

Al₂O₃ powders with particle sizes of 0.35 ㎛, 0.5 ㎛, 1.5 ㎛, and 2.5 ㎛ are deposited onto glass and Cu substrates using the aerosol deposition (AD) process. The deposition characteristics of Al₂O₃ films using those four types of Al₂O₃ powders are investigated to determine the influence of the particle size on the films. To observe detailed micro-structures of the films, the cross-section and surface morphology are observed. Then, the crystalline size and internal strain are calculated from X-ray diffraction peaks in order to confirm the hammering effect as well as the micro-strain during the AD deposition. From the above results, deposition mechanisms related to the particle size are studied. The results of this study indicate the optimal particle size and formation mechanisms for dense Al₂O₃ film with a smooth surface roughness as well as for a porous Al₂O₃ film with a rough surface roughness.

High porous AlO(OH) gel is used in precursor of ceramic material, coating material and porous catalyst. For use of these, not only physiochemical control for particle morphology, pore characteristic and peptization but also studies of synthetic method for preparation of high porous AlO(OH) gel were required. In this study, high porous AlO(OH) gel was prepared through the aging and filtration process of aluminum hydroxides gel precipitated by the hydrolysis reaction of $Na_2CO_3$ solution and $Al_2(SO_4)_3$ and $Na_2SO_4$ mixed solution. In this process, optimum synthetic condition of AlO(OH) gel having excellent pore volume as studying the effect of hydrolysis pH on gel precipitates has been studied. Hydrolysis pH brought about numerous changes on crystal morphology, surface area, pore volume and pore size. Physiochemical properties of gel were investigated as using XRD, TEM, TG/DTA, FT-IR and $N_2$ BET method.

본 연구에서는 리튬이온 이차전지 양극 활물질로 사용되는 $LiFePO_4$ 활물질을 이용하여 전지를 제조한 후 그 특성들을 평가하였다. 공침법을 이용하여 $FePO_4$ 전구체를 합성한 후 생성된 전구체에 리튬을 합성시키며, 열처리를 통하여 활물질을 생성시킨다. 열처리 온도에 의한 결과 중 $750^{\circ}C$에서의 결과가 가장 우수함을 확인하였으며 전도성을 확보하기 위하여 카본을 코팅하는 방법을 물리적 코팅 방식과 화학적 코팅방법으로 나누어 실험하였으며 물리적 카본 코팅의 결과 6wt%를 코팅했을 때 125 mAh/g의 용량을 보였으며 화학적 코팅에서는 코팅하지 않은 기본 활물질 보다 약 40%의 성능향상을 보여 130~140 mAh/g 대의 활물질 용량을 보였다. 다공성 구조체를 형성하기 위하여 nanocomposite을 투입한 실험에서는 $Al_2O_3$를 첨가한 활물질이 porous 형태의 구조체를 형성하고 $SiO_2$을 첨가한 활물질 보다 132 mAh/g의 용량으로 우수함을 알 수 있었다.

$AlCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$를 출발원료로 침전법에 의해 알루미늄 수화물을 합성하였다. 용액의 pH에 따라 amorphous, boehimite, bayerite, nordstrandite 상을 얻었고, 수산화 알루미늄은 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 $\gamma$, $\delta$, $\theta$를 거쳐${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$로 전이되었으며, 입자크기도 증가하였다. ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 를 담금피막법(dip-coating method)으로 중간층 위에 코팅하였고, 비교를 위해 비지지체 분리막도 준비하였다. 지지체 분리막은 작은 입자(grain)들로 구성된 다공질 구조(porous structure)를 나타내었지만, 비지지체 분리막에서는 상호 연결된 큰 입자(grain)들이 나타났다. 지지체 분리막에서 보다 비지지체 분리막에서 결정립 성장이 명백하게 나타났다.

Ceramic membranes of the supported $TiO_2-CeO_2$ were prepared by dip-coating method on an $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ porous substrate. The mean pore diameter of an alumina support was 0.125 um. The mean particle diameter of $TiO_2-CeO_2$ top layer varied with firing temperature and ranged from 20 to 85 nm. The thermal stability of the composite membranes was studied from their surface microstructure after calcination at $600-900^{\circ}C$. The supported $TiO_2-CeO_2$ composite membranes exhibited much higher heat resistance than the $TiO_2$ membrane.
