The $\beta$-SiC+ZrB$_2$ and $\beta$-SiC+TiB$_2$ceramic electroconductive composites were pressureless-sintered and annealed by adding l2wt% A1$_2$ $O_3$+Y$_2$ $O_3$(6 : 4wt%) powder as a function of sintering temperature. The relative density showed highest value of 84.92% of the theoretical density for SiC-TiB$_2$ at 190$0^{\circ}C$ sintering temperature. The phase analysis of the composites by XRD revealed of $\alpha$-SiC(6H), TiB$_2$, $Al_{5}$Y$_2$ $O_{12}$ and $\beta$-SiC(15R). Flexural strength showed the highest of 230 MPa for SiC-ZrB$_2$ composites sintered at 190$0^{\circ}C$. The vicker's hardness increased with increasing sintering temperature and showed the highest for SiC-ZrB$_2$ composites sintered at 190$0^{\circ}C$. Owing to YAG, the fracture toughness showed the highest of 6.50 MPa . m$^{1}$2/ for SiC-ZrB$_2$ composites at 190$0^{\circ}C$. The electrical resistivity was measured by the Rauw method from $25^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$. The electrical resistivity of the composites showed the PTCR(Positive Temperature Coefficient Resistivity).).

Mullite ceramics can be sintered by rf plasma sintering to densities as high as 97% compared to the theoretical density of the mullite, while SiC whisker-reinforced mullite matrix ceramic composites were not sintered by plasma sintering. Decomposition of mullite occurs in a superficial regins at the outside surface of the specimen by volatilization of SiO at elevated temperature by plasma. SiC whiskers were destroyed, and the matrix was converted to alumina from SiC-whisker reinforced mullite matrix ceramic composites during the plasma sintering. Accelerated volatilization from the SiC whisker in the mullite prevents sintering. The volatile species are mainly SiC and CO gas species. The effects of plasma on mullite and SiC-whisker reinforced mullite matrix composites are interpreted by thermodynamic simulation of the volatile species in the plasma environment. The thermodynamic results show that the decomposition will not occur during hot pressing.

To reduce residual pores of composites and obtain a dense matrix, SiC_f/SiC composites were fabricated by chemical vapor deposition (CVI) using SiC nanorods. SiC nanorods were uniformly grown in the thickness direction of the composite preform when the reaction pressure was maintained at 50 torr or 100 torr at 1,100℃. When SiC nanorods were grown, the densities of the composites were 2.57 ~ 2.65 g/㎤, higher than that of the composite density of 2.47 g/㎤ for non-growing of SiC nanorods under the same conditions; grown nanorods had uniform microstructure with reduced large pores between bundles. The flexural strength, fracture toughness and thermal conductivity (room temperature) of the SiC nanorod grown composites were 412 ~ 432 MPa, 13.79 ~ 14.94 MPa·m^1/2 and 11.51 ~11.89 W/m·K, which were increases of 30%, 25%, and 25% compared to the untreated composite, respectively.

The composites were fabricated 61Vo.% ${\beta}$-SiC and 39Vol.% $TiB_2$ powders with the liquid forming additives of 12wt% $Al_{2}O_{3}+Y_{2}O_{3}$ as a sintering aid by pressure or pressureless annealing at $1650^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. The present study investigated the influence of annealed sintering on the microstructure and mechanical of SiC-$TiB_2$ electroconductmive ceramic composites. Reactions between SiC and transition metal $TiB_2$ were not observed in the microstructure and the phase analysis of the SiC-$TiB_2$ electroconductive ceramic composites. Phase analysis of SiC-$TiB_2$ composites by XRD revealed mostly of ${\alpha}$-SiC(6H), $TiB_2$, and In Situ YAG($Al_{5}Y_{3}O_{12}$). The relative density, the flexural strength, the Young's modulus showed the highest value of 86.69[%], 136.43[MPa], 52.82[GPa] for pressure annealed SiC-$TiB_2$ ceramic composites.

In order to fulfil the requirements of the various performance profiles of ceramic cutting tools, six different SiC-based ceramics have been fabricated by hot-pressing (SiC--${Si}_3 {N}_4$composites) or by hot-pressing and subsequent annealing (monolithic SiC and SiC-TiC composites). Correlation between the annealing time and the corresponding microstructure and the mechanical properties of resulting ceramics have been investigated. The grain size of both ${Si}_3 {N}_4$and SiC in SiC-${Si}_3 {N}_4$composites increased with the annealing time. Monolithic SiC has the highest hardness, SiC-TiC composite the highest toughness, and the SiC-${Si}_3 {N}_4$composite the highest strength among the ceramics investigated. The hardness of SiC-${Si}_3 {N}_4$composites was relatively independent of the grain size, but dependent on the sintered density. The cutting performance of the newly developed SiC-based ceramic cutting tools will be described in Part 2 of this paper.

Tetragonal zirconia powder with 3 mol% Y2O3 mas mixed with up to 30 vol% of ${\beta}$-SiC powders, and the mixtures were hot-pressed at 1500$^{\circ}C$ for 60 min under a pressure of 30 MPa in Ar atmosphere. Flexural strength and fracture toughness were measured at room-and high-temperature (1000$^{\circ}C$). Evolution of microstructure was also conducted to investigate the effects of SiC addition on the properties of 3Y-TZP ceramics. Average grain size of the composites was about 0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$, and decreased with SiC addition. Both room- and high-temperature mechanical properties of the composites were improved with SiC content. Particularly, high-temperature strength and fracture toughness of 3Y-TZP/30v/o SiC composite were twice as high as those of 3Y-TZP. The hardness of the composites also increased with SiC content and reached maximum value at 3Y-TZP/30v/o SiC composite.

Hot workability of SiCp/AA2024 composites reinforced with different vol. % of SiCp reinforcements (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 vol. %) was investigated by hot torsion tests. Hot restoration of the composites was studied from the flow curves and deformed microstructures. Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) was occurred in all the composites during the hot deformation at 370-43$0^{\circ}C$ under a strain rate of 1.0/sec. Also, the flow stress of the composites increased with increasing the SiCp reinforcement vol. % and the difference of flow stress between the composites decreased with increasing the deformation temperature.

SiC 나노입자는 고분자 수지의 굴곡특성을 강화하기 위해 사용된다. 본 연구는 대용량 SiC 나노입자가 함유된 에폭시 수지를 제조하고 분산도를 평가한 것에 관한 내용이다. SiC 나노입자를 혼합하는 과정에 교반기와 초음파 분쇄기를 동시에 사용하여 20 wt%의 SiC 나노입자 강화 에폭시 복합재료를 제조하였다. 교반기와 분쇄기를 동시에 이용하는 방법으로 분산속도와 분산도가 개선됨을 기계적 물성 평가와 FE-SEM 결과로 확인하였다. 이러한 결과로 SiC 나노입자의 분산 모델을 구축하였다. 궁극적으로, 탄소섬유(UD 타입)와 20 wt% SiC 나노입자 강화 에폭시 수지를 사용하여 복합재료를 제조하였다. 교반기와 분쇄기를 동시에 사용했을 경우 초음파 분쇄기만 이용했을 경우에 비해 우수한 복합재료의 물성을 나타내었다.

The influences of TiC additions to the α-SiC on microstructural, mechanical, and electrical properties were investigated. Electrical discharge machinability of SiC-TiC composites was also studied. Samples were prepared by adding 30, 45, 60 wt.% TiC particles as a second phase to a SiC matrix. Sintering of SiC-TiC composites was done by hot pressing under a vacuum atmospehre from 1000 to 2000℃ with a pressure of 32 MPa and held for 90 minutes at 2000℃. Samples obtained by hot pressing were fully dense with the relative densities over 99% except 60wt.% TiC samples. Flexural strength and fracture toughness of the samples were increased with the TiC content. In case of SiC samples containing 45 wt.% TiC, the fracture toughness showed 90% increase compared to that of monolithic SiC sample. The crack propagation and crack deflection were observed with a SEM for etched samples after Vicker's indentation. The electrical resistivities of SiC-TiC composites were measured utilizing the four-point probe. The electrical dischage machining of composites was also conducted to evaluate the machinability.

SiC particulate reinforced Al matrix composites with different SiC volume fractions were fabricated by thermal spray process. And the dry sliding wear test were performed on these composites using the applied load of 10 N, rotational speed of 30 rpm, radius of rotation 15 mm. Wear tracks on the Al/SiC composites were investigated using scanning electron microscope(SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). It was observed that wear behavior of Al/SiC composites and formation of MML was changed dramatically according to reinforcement volume fraction.
