Processes in an iron ore sintering bed can characterized as a relatively uniform progress of fuel, cokes combustion and complicated physical change of solid particles. The sintering bed was modelled as an unsteady one-dimensional progress of the fuel layer, containing two phases: solid and gas. Coke added to the raw mix, of which the amount is about 3.5% of the total weight, was assumed to form a single particle with other components. Numerical simulations of the condition in the iron ore sintering bed were performed for various parameters: moisture contents, cokes contents and air suction rates, along with the various particle diameters of the solid for sensitivity analysis. Calculation results showed that the influence of these parameters on the bed condition should be carefully evaluated, in order to achieve self-sustaining combustion without high temperature section. The model should be extended to consider the bed structural change and multiple solid phase, which could treat the inerts and fuel particles separately.

Magnetic properties of sintered Fe-Si-P alloys have been investigated as a function of sintering condition and composition. Sintering was carried in the temperature range from 1100ø C to 1400ø C in vacuum. As the sintering temperature increases, the magnetic properties of specimens were improved mainly due to the easy movement of domain wall because large pores and large grains were formed during the sintering process at high temperature. When sintered at 1400ø C, Fe-2w/o Si-0.5w/o P compact had the best mgnetic properties, but more phosphorus addition degraded magnetic properties. It appears that the degradation was caused by the formation of non-magnetic compounds such as Si P, Fe3P in the compacts with high phosphorus contents.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of the sintering conditions of zirconia core on the adaptability. Methods: Ten specimens of each of commercial brand of zirconia(Razor 1100, U&C international, Seoul, Korea) were made and sintered under three different conditions. Specimens were divided into three subgroup(n=10) and sintered with various total time(1hr, 3hr, 9hr) at the maximum temperature(1500℃). The digitized data was superimposed with 3D inspection software to quantitatively obtain the adaptation of a zirconia core, and visual differences were confirmed with a color map. The root mean square(RMS) values of group were statistically analyzed with one-way ANOVA(α=0.05). Results: The overall adaptation of the zirconia cores were as follows; ss-1hr: 36.18±5.2㎛, ss-3hr: 39.55±3.9㎛, cs-9hr: 46.62±4.3㎛. They were statistically significant differences between groups for adaptation(p<0.05). Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, it could be considered that sintering condition of 1500℃ and 1~3 hour is recommended for the better marginal and internal fit. Speed sintering can be widely utilized to fabricate zirconia prothesis as the properties of those almost are to dentistry uses.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate qualities of lightweight aggregate for structural concrete according to mixing proportions, pelletizer condition, sintering condition and to choose the suitable main and sub material. Main material used paper sludge ash(PSA) and sub material used clay, fly-ash and paper sludge. The aggregates are sintered after granulating at the various condition. As the result of test, quality difference of aggregate showed clear according to the mixing proportions and sintering conditions. It was possible to manufacture lightweight aggregate for structural concrete that dry specific gravity was ranged about 0.9 to 1.4 also the test results of the aggregates showed same physical properties compared with abroad product as 10% granules crushing value from 5 or 10% and absorption percentage from 10 to 20%.

Sintered bulks of $ZrO_2$ nanopowders were fabricated by magnetic pulsed compaction (MPC) and subsequent two-step sintering employed in this study and the formability effects of nanopowder on mixing condition, pressure and sintering temperature were investigated. The addition of PVA induced and increase in the formability of the sintered bulk. But cracked bulks were obtained on sintering with addition of over 10 wt% PVA due to generation of crack during sintering. The optimum compaction pressure during MPC was 1.0 GPa and mixing conditions included using 5.0 wt% PVA. The optimum processing condition included MPC process, followed by two-step sintering (first at 1000 and then at $1450^{\circ}C$). The sintered bulks with the diameter of 30 mm under these conditions were found to have non crack, ~99% density.

Under rate-controlled sintering, furnace power is controlled to maintain a specific specimen contraction rate. This thermal processing method guarantees continuous process with a minimum thermal energy applied over time and makes it possible to control the density of the sintered body precisely. In this study, the rate-controlled sintering is applied to the sintering of $B_4C$ in order to investigate how rate-controlled sintering variables can affect the sintering behavior and/or grain growth behavior of $B_4C$ and how the results can be interpreted using sintering theories to draw an optimal sintering condition of the rate-controlled sintering. Further, the applicability of the rate-controlled sintering into the study for sintering of unknown materials is also considered.

Numerical simulations of the condition in the iron ore sintering bed are performed for various parameters. The sintering bed is modelled as an unsteady one-dimensional progress of solid material, containing cokes and iron ore. Bed temperature, solid mass and gas species distributions are predicted for various parameters of moisture contents, cokes contents and air suction rates, along with the various particle diameters of the solid for sensitivity analysis. Calculation results show that influences of these parameters on the bed condition should be carefully evaluated for achievement of the self-sustaining combustion without the high temperature section, which can cause the excessive melting in the bed. It suggests that the model should be extended to consider the bed structural change and multiple solid phase, which can treat the inerts and fuel particles separately.

In order to make a $Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ (CZTSe) sputtering target sintered for solar cell application, synthesis of CZTSe compound by solid state reaction of Cu, Zn, Sn and Se mixed powders and effects of ball milling condition on sinterability such as ball size, combination of ball size, ball milling time and sintering temperature, was investigated. As a result of this research, sintering at $500^{\circ}C$ after ball milling using mixed balls of 1 mm and 3 mm for 72 hours was the optimum condition to synthesis near stoichiometric composition of $Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ and to prepare sintered pellet with high density relatively.

Outlet of gas has been a big problem in deforming rubber or plastic in pressing mold. Air vent has been used to solve the problem, but it has weak points such as the increased cost, the increased number of process, and vent marks on the surface of a produce. In this study, the sintering method is used for making porous metal mold. Porous metal mold has many open pores, which are very small. When Porous metal mold is used for pressing mold, all process would be made short, produce cost would be down, and it would not leave vent marks on the surface of a produce. Porosity varies from sintering and pressing conditions, which are the pressure of compacting powder, the length of sintering time, sintering temperature and sintering atmosphere etc. This study will find optimized sintering temperature condition for the Porous metal mold.

Removal of gas in a mold has been a big problem in pressing mold or in injection mold. Air vent has been used to solve the problem, but it has weak points such as the increased cost, the increased number of process, and vent marks on the surface of a product. In this study, the sintering method and rapid tooling method are used for making porous metal mold. Porous metal mold has many open pores, which are very small. When porous metal mold is used for pressing mold or injection mold, all process would be made short, produce cost would be down, and vent marks would be not leaved on the surface of a product. Characteristic of porous material varies from sintering conditions, which are the length of sintering time, sintering temperature and sintering atmosphere etc. This study will find optimized sintering condition for the porous metal mold.
