The microstructure evolution during sintering of a compact being composed of three layers of (WC-15%Co)/Fe powder mixture with different Fe contents has been observed. The Fe contents in the respective (WC-15%Co)/Fe layers were varied by 20%. 50%, and 90% in sequence by volume from a top layer to a bot- tom layer. The sintering temperatures and times were varied from 110$0^{\circ}C$ to 125$0^{\circ}C$ and from 1 h to 4 h, The compact layer was not densified below 120$0^{\circ}C$ in 4 h. Appropriate sintering temperature and time conditions for making a multi-layered hard metal compact were determined as 125$0^{\circ}C$ and 3 h, respectively.

Effects of compacting pressure on the electrical and sintering characteristics of Cu25Cr contact material have been investigated. Cu25Cr contact materials were prepared by solid and liquid-phase sintering methods varying compacting pressure. Influence of compacting pressure on electrical characteristics were investigated in the cylindrical stainless-steel vessel using L-C resonant circuit. The physical and electrical properties of solid-phase sintered Cu25Cr material were found to be improved by increased compacting pressure. On the other hand, it was found that compacting pressure had little influence in case of liquid-phase sintered Cu25Cr material. After conditioning, contact resistance of Cu25Cr material was decreased regardless of compacting pressure. With increased compacting pressure, interrupting ability was shown to be increased.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of WC-3 wt% Co cemented carbides, fabricated by a spark plasma sintering (SPS) process, were investigated in this study. The WC-3 wt%Co powders were sintered at $900{\sim}1100^{\circ}C$ for 5min under 40MPa in high vacuum. The density and hardness were increased as the sintering temperature increased. WC-3 wt%Co compacts with a relative density of 97.1% were successfully fabricated at $1100^{\circ}C$. The fracture toughness and hardness of a compact sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ were $21.6 MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ and 4279 Hv, respectively.

In this paper, PLZT Ceramics were fabricated by two stage sintering method whose first stage vacuum hot pressing and second stage PbO atmosphere sintering. Using Graphite Mould instead of Alumina Mould in first stage prevented the adhision between PLZT substrate and the mould. The grain sizes of PLZT Ceramics were controlled by varying the hot pressing time and second sintering time.

In this present investigation, Metal Injection Moulding (MIM) of M2 High Speed Steel (HSS) parts using a wax-High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) binder is shown. The elimination of organic binder was carried out by thermal debinding under inert atmosphere. In order to keep carbon in the sample that could improve the sintering process, incomplete debinding was performed between 450 and $600^{\circ}C$. The specimens were sintered at temperatures between 1210 and $1280^{\circ}C$ in high vacuum atmosphere, obtaining the 98% of the theoretical density. In the samples with higher residual carbon content, the sintering window was extended up to 20 degrees and the optimum temperature was lower.

N-type $Bi_2Te_3-Sb_2Te_3$ solid solutions doped with 1$CdCl_2$ was prepared by melt spinning, crushing and vacuum sintering processes. Microstructure, bending strength and thermoelectric property were investigated as a function of the doping quantity from 0.03wt.% to 0.10wt.% and sintering temperature from $400^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$, and finally compared with those of conventionally fabricated alloys. The alloy showed a good structural homogeneity as well as bending strength of $3.88Kgf/mm^2$. The highest thermoelectric figure of merit was obtained by doping 0.03wt.% and sintering at $500^{\circ}C$.

The composites were fabricated by adding 30, 35, 40, 45[vol.%] Zirconium Diboride(hereafter, $ZrB_2$) powders as a second phase to Silicon Carbide(hereafter, SiC) matrix. $SiC-ZrB_2$ composites were sintered by Spark Plasma Sintering(hereafter, SPS) in vacuum or argon gas atmosphere. The relative density of SiC+40[vol.%]$ZrB_2$ composites reveal high 99.57[%] in argon gas atmosphere and pressure 50MPa.

The counter electrodes in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) play roles in not only collecting electrons from external circuit but also reducing I3- to I- in electrolytes. Generally, conventional counter electrodes for DSSCs are prepared from the high temperature treatment of the H2PtCl6 precursor solution at $400^{\circ}C$ However, the more simplified fabrication process of counter electrodes is required for the commercialization of DSSCs. In this work, we developed novel fabrication process of counter electrodes using nano-second pulsed laser. DSSCs employing counter electrodes prepared by laser process showed conversion efficiency of 6.75% with short-circuit current of 12.73 mA/cm2, open-circuit voltage of 0.74 V and fill factor of 0.72. Closer investigating of photovoltaic properties will be reported.

Effect of oxygen content in the ultrafine tungsten powder fabricated by electrical explosion of wire method on the behvior of spark plasma sintering was investigated. The initial oxygen content of 6.5 wt% of as-fabricated tungsten powder was reduced to 2.3 and 0.7 wt% for the powders which were reduction-treated at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2 hour and at $500^{\circ}C$ for 1h in hydrogen atmosphere, respectively. The reduction-treated tungsten powders were spark-plasma sintered at $1200-1600^{\circ}C$ for 100-3600 sec. with applied pressure of 50 MPa under vacuum of 0.133 Pa. Maximun sindered density of 97% relative density was obtained under the condition of $1600^{\circ}C$ for 1h from the tungsten powder with 0.7 wt% oxygen. Sintering activation energy of $95.85kJ/mol^{-1}$ was obtained, which is remarkably smaller than the reported ones of $380{\sim}460kJ/mol^{-1}$ for pressureless sintering of micron-scale tungsten powders.
