Si3N4(p)-SiC(p) composites were prepared by gas pressure sintering at 190$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. $\alpha$-SiC with average particle size of 0.48${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were dispersed from zero to 50vol% in $\alpha$-Si3N4 with average particle size of 0.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Y2O3-Al2O3 system was used as sintering aids. When 10vol% of SiC was added to Si3N4, optimum mechanical properties were observed; relative density of 98.8%, flextural strength of 930MPa, fracture toughness of 5.9MPa.m1/2 and hardness value of 1429kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$. Grain growth of $\beta$-Si3N4 was inhibited as the amount of added SiC was increased. SiC particles were found inside the $\beta$-Si3N4 intragrains in case of 10, 20 and 30vol%SiC added composites.

Understanding of effects of changes in the particle size of the matrix material on the mullite whisker growth during the production of porous mullite is crucial for better design of new porous ceramics materials in different applications. Commercially, raw materials such as Al₂O₃/SiO₂ and Al(OH)₃/SiO₂ are used as starting materials, while AlF₃ is added to fabricate porous mullite through reaction sintering process. When Al₂O₃ is used as a starting material, a porous microstructure can be identified, but a more developed needle shaped microstructure is identified in the specimen using Al(OH)₃, which has excellent reactivity. The specimen using Al₂O₃/SiO₂ composite powder does not undergo mulliteization even at 1,400 ℃, but the specimen using the Al(OH)₃/SiO₂ composite powder had already formed complete mullite whiskers from the particle size specimen milled for 3 h at 1,100 ℃. As a result, the change in sintering temperature does not significantly affect formation of microstructures. As the particle size of the matrix materials, Al₂O₃ and Al(OH)₃, decreases, the porosity tends to decrease. In the case of the Al(OH)₃/SiO₂ composite powder, the highest porosity obtained is 75 % when the particle size passes through a milling time of 3 h. The smaller the particle size of Al(OH)₃ is and the more the long/short ratio of the mullite whisker phase decreases, the higher the density becomes.

본 연구에서는 미소기공과 Si석출상의 파단으로 구성되는 유효기공 면적분율에 대한 인장특성의 결함민감도 관점에서 Al-Si합금의 인장특성을 공정 Si입자의 분포양상 변화에 대하여 평가하고자 하였다. Al-xSi(x=2,5,8,11)합금의 주방상태 미세조직인 망상구조의 공정 Si입자는 T4처리를 통하여 과립형태로 변형시켰으며, CT분석과 주사전자현미경 관찰을 통하여 미소기공의 분포와 크기를 평가하였다. CT분석과 주사전자현미경의 비교분석을 통하여 인장변형과정에서의 균열성장이 최대 기공율을 포함하는 국부영역에서 발생함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 이들 분석방법에는 미소기공 인접영역에서의 소성변형집중과 미소기공의 분포양상에 의해 파생되는 실제적인 차이를 포함하기 때문에 정확히 일치된 결과를 얻을 수 없었다. 유효기공 면적분율의 변화에 대한 인장강도와 연신율의 변화는 과립형태보다 망상구조 정출상의 분율변화에 더욱 민감한 의존도를 가진다.

In order to obtain the high purity $\beta$-SiC powder that possesses the excellent sinterability and is close to the spherical shape, the carbon black was mixed into the composition of Si(OC2H5)4-H2O-NH3-C2H5OH which the monodispersed spherical fine particles is formed the hydrolysis of Ethylsilicate and the mixture was carbonized under an argon atmosphere. Particle shpae, size and the yield of $\beta$-SiC powder were investigated according to the molar ratio of carbon/alkoxide and variations of reaction temperature and reaction time. The results of this study are as follow ; 1) The yield of $\beta$-SiC gained from the reaction for one hour at 150$0^{\circ}C$ almost got near 100% and the particle size of $\beta$-SiC from the reaction for 15 hrs at 150$0^{\circ}C$ was 0.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ on the average and close to the spherical shape agglomerate state. 2) When the molar ratio carbon/alkoxide is over 3.1 and the reaction occurs at 145$0^{\circ}C$ for 5hrs, the carbon content has not an effect on the kind of crystal of product.

The objective of this study was to develop a synthesis process for ${\beta}$-SiC powders to reduce the synthesis temperature and to control the particle size and to prevent particle agglomeration of the synthesized ${\beta}$-SiC powders. A phenol resin and TEOS were used as the starting materials for the carbon and Si sources, respectively. $SiO_2$-C hybrid precursors with various C/Si mole ratios were fabricated using a conventional sol-gel process. ${\beta}$-SiC powders were synthesized by a carbothermal reduction process using $SiO_2$-C hybrid precursors with various C/Si mole ratios (1.6 ~ 2.5) fabricated using a sol-gel process. In this study, the effects of excess carbon and the addition of Si powders to the $SiO_2$-C hybrid precursor on the synthesis temperature and particle size of ${\beta}$-SiC were examined. It was found that the addition of metallic Si powders to the $SiO_2$/C hybrid precursor with excess carbon reduced the synthesis temperature of the ${\beta}$-SiC powders to as low as $1300^{\circ}C$. The synthesis temperature for ${\beta}$-SiC appeared to be reduced with an increase of the C/Si mole ratio in the $SiO_2$-C hybrid precursor by a direct carburization reaction between Si and excess carbon.

Wear behaviour of B.390 aluminum alloy with different particle sizes of primary Si against a SM45C counterface was studied as a function of wear load and sliding velocity, using pin-on-disk apparatus under dry condition. The wear rate of specimen with fine primary Si particles showed increased wear resistance at high wear load, on the other side wear resistance of coarse primary Si particle size was improved at low wear load. As the compressive residual stress in the matrix increased remarkably by liquid nitrogen(LN) treatment, wear resistance of the LN treated specimen was more excellent than that of T6 treated specimen.

The particle formation using pyrolysis has many advantages over other particle manufacturing techniques. The particles by pyrolysis have relatively uniform size and chemical composition. Also, we can easily produce high purity particles. Thus, we studied the formation of silicon particles by pyrolysis of 50% $SiH_4$ gas diluted in Ar gas. A pyrolysis furnace was used for the thermal decomposition of $SiH_4$ gas at $800^{\circ}C$ and atmospheric pressure. The aerosol flow from furnace is separated into two ways. The one is to the Scanning Mobility Particle Sizer (SMPS) for particle size distribution measurement and the other is to the particle deposition system. The produced silicon particles are deposited on the wafer in the deposition chamber. SEM measurement was used to compare the particle size distribution results from the SMPS. Depending on the experimental conditions, particles of high concentration in the $30\sim80$ nm size range were generated.

n형 FeSi2의 열전물성에 미치는 입자크기 및 성형압력의 영향에 대해 조사하였다. 입자크기가 다른 출발 분말을 각각 가압성형(성형압력; $70{\sim}220kg/cm^2$) 하였고, 제작한 성형체를 Ar 분위기 1473 K에서 7시간 소결한 후, 반도체상인 ${\beta}$상을 얻기 위해 1103 K에서 100시간 소둔처리 하였다. XRD, SEM 및 EDS를 이용해서 시편들의 미세구조 및 상분석을 행하였다. 동일 시료를 가지고 Ar 분위기 상온~1023 K에서 도전율과 Seebeck 계수를 동시에 측정하였다. 입자크기가 작을수록 소결밀도와 잔존 ${\varepsilon}$-FeSi 금속전도상 증가에 의해 도전율이 상승하였으며, Seebeck 계수는 700~800 K에서 최고값을 나타내었고, 입자크기가 작을수록 잔존 ${\varepsilon}$-FeSi 금속전도상 증가에 의해 감소하였다. 반면에 성형압력의 변화는 도전율 및 Seebeck 계수에 그다지 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다. 결과적으로 power factor는 성형압력 보다 입자크기에 큰 영향을 받았다.

The objective of this work was to investigate the effects of SiC particle size(50, 100 ${\mu}m$) and additional elements such as Si, Cu and Ti on aging behavior in Al-5Mg-X(Si,Cu,Ti)/SiCp composites fabricated by pressureless infiltration method using hardness and wear test, scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). The peak aging time in Al-5Mg-X(Si, Cu, Ti)/SiCp(50, 100 ${\mu}m$) composites is shorter than Al-5Mg-0.3Si alloy.The peak aging time of 50 ${\mu}m$ SiC particle reinforced Al-5Mg-X(Si,Cu,Ti) composites is shorter than those of 100 ${\mu}m$ SiC particle reinforced of Al-5Mg-X(Si,Cu,Ti) composites. The Al-5Mg-0.3Si-0.1Cu-0.1Ti/SiCp(50 ${\mu}m$) composites aged at $180^{\circ}C$ has higher hardness and better wear resistance than any other aged composite.The aging effect is promoted by the addition of Si and Cu in Al-5Mg/SiCp composites, so the wear resistance of Al-5Mg/SiCp composites with Si and Cu elements is enhanced by the aging treatment.

The effects of particle size of Li-Si alloy and LiCl-KCl addition as a binder phase for raw material of anode were investigated on the formability of the thermal battery anode. The formability was evaluated with respect to filling density, tap density, compaction density, spring-back and compressive strength. With increasing particle size of Li-Si alloy powder, densities increased while spring-back and compressive strength decreased. Since the small spring-back is beneficial to avoiding breakage of pressed compacts, larger particles might be more suitable for anode forming. The increasing amount of LiCl-KCl binder phase contributed to reducing spring-back, improving the formability of anode powder too. The control of particle size also seems to be helpful to get double pressed pellets, which consisted of two layer of anode and electrolyte.
