The geometric design of an implant surface may play an important role in affecting early osseointegration. It is well known that the porous surfaced implant had much benefits for the osseointegration and the early stability of implant. However, the porous surfaced implant had weakness from the transgingival contamitants, and it resulted in alveolar bone loss. The other problem identified with porous surface implant is the loss of physical properties resulting from the bead sintering process. In this study, we developed the new bead coating implant to overcome the disadvantages of porous surfaced implant. Ti-6Al-4V beads were supplied from STARMET (USA). The beads were prepared by a plasma rotating electrode process (PREP) and had a nearly spherical shape with a diameter of 75-150 ${\mu}m$. Two types of titanium implants were supplied by KJ Meditech (Korea). One is an external hexa system (External type) and the other is an internal system with threads (Internal type). The implants were pasted with beads using polyvinylalcohol solution as a binder, and then sintered at 1250 $^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours in vacuum of $10^{-5}$ torr. The resulting porous structure was 400-500 ${\mu}m$ thick and consisted of three to four bead layers bonded to each other and the implant. The pore size was in the range of 50-150 ${\mu}m$ and the porosity was 30-40 % in volume. The aim of this study was to evaluate the osseointegration of the newly developed dental implant. The experimental implants (n=16) were inserted in the unilateral femur of 4 mongrel dogs. All animals were killed at 8 weeks after implantation, and samples were harvested for hitological examination. All bead coated porous implants were successfully osseointegrated with peripheral bone. The average bone-implant contact ratios were 84.6 % (External type) and 81.5 % (Internal type). In the modified Goldner's trichrome staining, new generated mature bones were observed at the implant interface at 8 weeks after implantation. Although, further studies are required, we could conclude that the newly developed vacuum sintered Ti-6Al-4V bead coating implant was strong enough to resist the implant insertion force, and it was easily osseointegrated with peripheral bone.

$ Na^+$-beta-alumina 고체전해질을 고상반응법을 통해 합성하였으며, 두 종류의 안정화제 $Li_2O$와 MgO가 상 형성 및 소결밀도에 미치는 영향을 비교 분석하였다. 합성온도에 따른 ${\beta}/{\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-alumina 상 분율 분석을 위해, [$Na_2O$] : [$Al_2O_3$] = 1 : 5의 고정된 몰 비에서 하소온도를 $1200{\sim}1500^{\circ}C$로 변화하여, 각각 2 h동안 하소하였다. $Li_2O$를 안정화제로 사용한 경우에는 $1500^{\circ}C$에서 2차 상 전이가 발생해 ${\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-alumina 상 분율의 증가가 나타났지만, MgO를 첨가했을 때는 하소온도에 관계없이 상 분율이 유지되었다. 또한 disc 형태의 $Na^+$-beta-alumina 샘플을 $1550{\sim}1650^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 각각 30 min 소결한 후 상대 소결밀도, 상 변화 및 미세구조를 분석하였다. $Li_2O$를 안정화제로 사용하였을 때, 소결온도 $1600^{\circ}C$에서 ${\beta}^{{\prime}{\prime}}$-상 분율과 상대밀도가 각각 94.7%와 98%로 가장 높은 값을 나타냈으며, MgO를 안정화제로 사용하였을 경우, 소결온도의 증가에 따라 상대밀도가 크게 증가하는 결과를 보였다.

Si$_3$N$_4$powder with 2 wt% $Al_2$O$_3$and 6 wt% $Y_2$O$_3$additives was sintered by the gas pressure sintering (GPS) technique. The unlubricated wear behavior depending on sintering conditions such as sintering temperature, pressure, and sintering time was investigated. When the sintering temperature and time increased, the larger elongated grains were formed and the microstructural heterogeneity increased. When sintering pressure increased, grain growth, however, was impeded. Also, the wear properties depended on microstructure and friction coefficient were related to grain size. Based on the experimental results, the wear properties were associated with initial friction coefficients as well as mechanical properties including fracture toughness and flexural strength.

Effects of HA and TiN coating on the electrochemical characteristics of Ti-6AI-4V alloys for bone plates were investigated using various test methods. Ti-6AI-4V alloys were fabricated by using a vacuum induction furnace and bone plates were made by laser cutting and polishing. HA was made of extracted tooth sintered and then tooth ash was used as HA coating target. The TiN and HA film coating on the surface were carried on using electron-beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) method. The corrosion behaviors of the samples were examined through potentiodynamic method in 0.9% NaCI solutions at $36.5\pm$$1^{\circ}C$ and corrosion surface was observed using SEM and XPS. The surface roughness of TiN coated bone plates was lower than that of tooth ash coated plates. The structure of TiN coated layer showed the columnar structure and tooth ash coated layer showed equiaxed and anisotrophic structure. The corrosion potential of the TiN coated specimen is comparatively high. The active current density of TiN and tooth ash coated alloy showed the range of about $1.0xl0^{-5}$ $A\textrm{cm}^2$, whereas that of the non-coated alloy was$ 1.0xl0^{-4}$ $A\textrm{cm}^2$. The active current densities of HA and TiN coated bone plates were smaller than that of non-coated bone plates in 0.9% NaCl solution. The pitting potential of TiN and HA coated alloy is more drastically increased than that of the non-coated alloy. The pit number and pit size of TiN and HA coated alloy decreased in compared with those of non-coated alloy. For the coated samples, corrosion resistance increased in the order of TiN coated, tooth ash coated, and non-coated alloy.

$\alpha$-SiC에 ${\alpha}-Si_3N_4$ 를 10~30 vol%까지 10 vol% 간격으로 혼합하고 소결 조제로$Al_2O_3$와$Y_2O_3$를 각각 6wt% 로 첨가하여 $1,780^{\circ}C$에서 2시간동안 질소 분위기에서 상압소결하여 $Si_3N_4$ 복합체를 제조하였다. 상대 이론 밀도 및 꺽임 강도는 ${\alpha}-Si_3N_4$를 20 vol% 첨가하였을 때 92% 및 3,560 MPa로 가장 우수하였으며, 비마모량도 $2.68{\times}10^{-3}\;mm^2$ 으로 가장 작았다. 그리고, 파괴 인성$(K_{1c})$)은 ${\alpha}-Si_3N_4$를 30vol% 첨가하였을 때 $4.9\;MN/m^{3/2}$로 가장 좋았으나 이 경우 기공의 영향으로 내마모성은 저하된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

The present study investigates the effect of PMMA and BN content on microstructure, mechanical and dielectric properties of silicon nitride($Si_3N_4$) ceramics in $Y_2O_3-Al_2O_3$ additive system. The total additive content was fixed at 8 wt.% and the amount of PMMA varies from 0 to 40 wt.% and BN varies from 0 to 36 wt.%, respectively. The crystalline phases of the samples were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. All the sintered sample shows complete transformation of ${\alpha}$ to ${\beta}-Si_3N_4$ during the sintering process indicated that the phase transformation was unaffected by the PMMA or BN content. However, the microstructure shows that the residual porosity increased with increasing PMMA and BN content. In addition, the flexural strength and the dielectric constant decrease with addition of PMMA and BN due to the residual porosity. This article provides empirical study of design parameters for $Si_3N_4$-based radome materials.

The piezoelectric properties of $0.05Pb(Al_{0.5}Nb_{0.5})O_3-0.95Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3+0.7wt%Nb_2O_5+o.5wt%MnO_2$ ceramics with the additive of BaCO$_3$were investigated. As the addition of BaCO$_3$increased from 0 to 0.4 wt%, the dielectric constant ($\epsilon^T _{33}$), piezoelectric constant ($d_33$), electromechanical coupling factor ($k_p$), and mechanical quality factor ($Q_m$) increased, while the dielectric loss ($tan\delta$) decreased. The highest piezoelectric and dielectric properties were observed at $1200^{\circ}C$ of the sintered temperature with 0.4 wt% of $BaCO_3$, and the properties of $d_33$, $k_p$, and $Q_m$ were 339 pC/N, 60% and 1754, respectively.

Reaction-bonded silicon nitrides containing rare-earth oxide sintering additives were densified by gas pressure sintering. The sintering behavior, microstructure and mechanical properties of the resultant specimens were analyzed. For that purpose, $Lu_2O_3-SiO_2$ (US), $La_2O_3$-MgO (AM) and $Y_2O_3-Al_2O_3$ (YA) additive systems were selected. Among the tested compositions, densification of silicon nitride occurred at the lowest temperature when using the $La_2O_3$-MgO system. Since the $Lu_2O_3-SiO_2$ system has the highest melting temperature, full densification could not be achieved after sintering at $1950^{\circ}C$. However, the system had a reasonably high bending strength of 527 MPa at $1200^{\circ}C$ in air and a high fracture toughness of 9.2 $MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$. The $Y_2O_3-Al_2O_3$ system had the highest room temperature bending strength of 1.2 GPa.
