Many researches on fabrication process for BSCCO precursor powders have been developed for high J$_{c}$ BSCCO-2223 tape. Spray pyrolysis method for fabrication of precursor powder has many advantages, such as high purity, fine particle size and low carbon content of BSCCO precursor powder. Fine, spherical powders were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis from the aqueous solution of metal nitrates. BSCCO precursor powders were synthesized with various solutes concentration and heat treatment conditions. Average particle size for spray pyrolysis powders was $1.5∼3\mu\textrm{m}$. Bi-2223/Ag tape was prepared by PIT method and followed by various sintering conditions. BSCCO precursor powders were characterized by XRD, SEM, EDS, Carbon content and particle size analysis.s.

The magnetic Nd-Fe-B powders were prepared by a thermochemical method, consisting of the processes of spray-drying, debinding, milling, H$_2$-reduction, Ca-reduction, and washing. The optimum process conditions were studied by microstructural and thermal analysis. The resultant Nd-Fe-B powder was spherical with the size of 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Effects of the process parameters of each step on the microstructure of the powders were investigated, and their magnetic properties were evaluated.

In order to get proper original suspension for the electrophoresis process of making YBaCuO films, YBaCuO superconductor powder was prepared with the Sol-gel method. The composition of the powder was analyzed by X-ray diffraction, which was identified as YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$\sub$7-x/(Yl23) phase. The form of YBaCuO single particle was showed to be spherical by scanning electronic microscope and its size was among 0.2-1 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The critical transition temperature (T$\sub$c/) and the critical current density (J$\sub$c/) were measured with the four-probe, method. The T$\sub$c/ was about 91 K, and the J$\sub$c/ was 5-30 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

TiO2 fine powders were synthesized using oxygenolysis and hydrolysis reaction of TiCl4 vapor in gas phase. The TiO2 powder synthesized showed morphological differences depending on reaction system as follows: TiCl4-O2 reaction system produced the monosized particles having polyhedral shape with well-defined crystal planes and the particles did not agglomerate into secondary particles. TiCl4-H2O reaction system, whereas, produced the spherical secondary particles which consisted of fine primary particles. Other powder characteristics such as particle size, impurity content and rutile content are also reported in this study.

There is a growing demend for absorptive electromagentic shielding materials for wide band frequency application. In this study, the absorber which consists of a rubber plus Ni-Zn ferrite which have been prepared by direct-wet method. A rubber ferrite composite for electromagnetic shielding, it is most importan facter the homogeneous ultra fine size and high dispersitive ferrite powder. Direct-wet method and solid-solid reaction method for preparing of ultra fine ferrite powder was used. It has been experimentally verified that the powder which prepared by direct-wet method was very fine and almost same size spherical powder, the composite ferrite have excellent electromagnetic wave absorption in X-band.

Mg-4.3Zn-0.7Y (at%) alloy powders were prepared using an industrial scale gas atomizer, followed by warm extrusion. The powders were almost spherical in shape. The microstructure of atomized powders and those extruded bars was examined using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscope (EDS) and X-ray Diffractometer (XRD). The grain size of the powders was coarsen as the initial powder size increased. After the extrusion, the grain size became fine due to the severe plastic deformation during the extrusion with the ratio of 10:1. Both the ultimate strength and elongation were enhanced with the decrease of initial particle size.

A chemical vapor condensation (CVC) process using the pyrolysis of metal-organic precursors was applied to produce the nanosized $WO_3$ powders. Morphology and phase changes of the synthesized $WO_3$ powder as a function of CVC parameters were investigated by XRD, BET and TEM. The agglomerated nanosized monoclinic $WO_3$ powders with nearly spherical shape and 10-38 nm in mean diameter could be obtained. Conditions to produce the $WO_3$ nanopowders are presented in this paper.

We prepared a Ni-ferrite encapsulated Mo-permalloy powder through simple electroless plating and heat treatment. It was observed that Ni-ferrite particles formed in a spherical form on each Mo-permalloy grain. The microstructure and the magnetic characteristics of the encapsulated powders depended strongly on oxidation time in the heat-treatment. When the powder was oxidized for 60 min, a dense Ni-ferrite layer covered the Mo-permalloy grain, which in turn exhibited high saturation magnetization of 85.8 emu/g. The magnetic core prepared additionally with the encapsulated powder exhibited a resonant frequency of 12 kHz.

The nano-sized Fe powders were prepared by plasma arc discharge process using pure Fe rod. The microstructure and the sintering behavior of the prepared nanopowders were evaluated. The prepared Fe nanopowders had nearly spherical shapes and consisted of metallic core and oxide shell structures. The higher volume shrinkage at low sintering temperature was observed due to the reduction of surface oxide. The nanopowders showed 6 times higher densification rate and more significant isotropic shrinkage behavior than those of micron sized Fe powders.

In this study, a novel approach to the explosive synthesis of titanium carbide (TiC) is discussed. Nonstoichiometric $TiC_x$ powder was produced via the underwater explosion of a Ti powder encapsulated within a spherical explosive charge. The explosion process, bubble formation, and synthesis process were visualized using high-speed camera imaging. It was concluded that synthesis occurred within the detonation gas during the first expansion/contraction cycle of the bubble, which was accompanied by a strong emission of light. The recovered powders were studied using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Submicron particles were generated during the explosion. An increase in the carbon content of the starting powder resulted in an increase in the carbon content of the final product. No oxide byproducts were observed within the recovered powders.
