Effect of sintering additives on the densification behavior of reaction-bonded silicon nitride prepared by using coarse Si powders is discussed. Sintering additives such as 6 wt% $Y_2O_3$+1wt% $A1_2O_3$ (6YlA) did not give rise to full densification, while full densification was obtained by using the sintering additives such as 6wt% $Y_2O_3$+3 wt% $A1_2O_3$+ 2wt% $SiO_2$ (6Y3A2S) and 9wt% $Y_2O_3$+ 1.5wt% $A1_2O_3$+ 3wt% $SiO_2$ (9Yl.5A3S). In the case of 6Y3A2S addition, high fracture strength of 960 MPa and the fracture toughness of $6.5 MPa.m^{1/2}$ were obtained.

To investigate the grain refining mechanism of Al by the addition of Ti-B, the unidirectional solidifications of 99.9%Al and 99.7%Al were performed under the condition of varing the pouring temperature. The solidification modes of Al were studied by the cooling curve analyses, metallographic and microprobe examinations. The results were as follows: 1) Grains were most refined with an addition of 0.15wt.%Ti-0.021wt.%B but the grain size with 0.2wt.%Ti-0.028wt.%B was increased. 2) The grain size of 99.7wt.%Al was even more refined than that of 99.9wt.%Al with the same amount of Ti-B. 3) As the pouring temperature increased, the grain size of pure Al and an alloy with 0.lwt.%Ti-0.014wt.%B was increased. However, an alloy with 0.2wt.%Ti-0.028wt.%B did not show any effects of temperature. 4) TiC(Al-Ti) and (Al-Ti-C) were identified as nucleants for Al.

In this paper, specimens was manufactured in general method annexing PAN-PZT+0.8wt%Mn+1wt% Nb ceramics doped by Sr(0.0 ~ 1.2 wt%). and the following conclusion has been deduced. In XRD, the crystal structure of ceramic has the rombohedral structure and consequently the specimen characterized by MPB was manufactured. According to dopping with Sr, electromechanical factor(kp) little is changed. kp was maximum value 31.31[%] at Sr 1.2[wt%]. mechanical quality factor(Qm) was maximum value 371.879 at Sr 0.6[wt%].

The effect of austenitizing temperature and time on the processing window of 3.60wt%C - 2.50wt%Si - 0.80wt%Cu ductile cast iron and that of the amount of copper added were investigated. The second stage reaction at 400oC was retarded with increased austenitizing temperature. The widest processing window was obtained at the lower austempering temperature with the increased time at the same austenitizing temperature. The width of the widest processing window was decreased with the increase of time at the same austenitizing temperature. The width of processing window was increased with the increased amount of copper added.

10 wt.% and 20 wt.%$Li-TiO_2$ composite powders are synthesized by a sol-gel method using titanium isopropoxide and $Li_2CO_3$ as precursors. The as-received amorphous 10 wt.%$Li-TiO_2$ composite powders crystallize into the anatase-type crystal structure upon calcination at $450^{\circ}C$, which then changes to the rutile phase at $750^{\circ}C$. The asreceived 20 wt%$Li-TiO_2$ composite powders, on the other hand, crystallize into the anatase-type structure. As the calcination temperature increases, the anatase $TiO_2$ phase gets transformed to the $LiTiO_2$ phase. The peaks for the samples obtained after calcination at $900^{\circ}C$ mainly exhibit the $LiTiO_2$ and $Li_2TiO_3$ phases. For a comparison of the photocatalytic activity, 10 wt.% and 20 wt.% $Li-TiO_2$ composite powders calcined at $450^{\circ}C$, $600^{\circ}C$, and $750^{\circ}C$ are used. The 20 wt.%$Li-TiO_2$ composite powders calcined at $600^{\circ}C$ show excellent efficiency for the removal of methylorange.

유색 금 합금 중의 하나인 퍼플골드(purple gold)는 특유의 적자색(보라색)이 나는 78wt%Au-22wt%Al의 조성으로 이루어진 금 합금으로 많은 각광을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 78wt%Au-22wt%Al(이후 Au1)인 기준 조건보다 Al의 상대조성이 커짐에 따라 보라색과 기계적 물성의 변화를 확인하기 위해 76wt%Au-24wt%Al(이후Au2), 74wt%Au-26wt%Al(이후 Au3), 72wt%Au-28wt%Al(이후 Au4)으로 Al 조성을 22~26%Al까지 변화시키고 이때의 비커스 경도, 광학현미경, EDS, UV-VIS-NIR 색차분석 실험을 실시하였다. 비커스경도 측정결과 Al의 함유량이 증가함에 따라 경도값은 감소하는 경향성을 보였으며, 26wt%Al 이상의 조성에서 Au1 조성에 상응하는 경도 값을 유지할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 광학현미경을 이용한 미세구조 분석결과 Al의 함유량이 증가함에 따라 적자색을 띄는 결정립 $AuAl_2$의 분포는 감소하며, 결정립계에 석출하는 Al-rich 상의 분포와 크기는 증가하는 경향을 확인하였다. EDS를 이용한 성분분석 결과 실제 목표했던 조성과 분석오차를 고려하면 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. UV-VIS-NIR를 이용한 색차 분석결과 Au3 조성까지도 보라색을 유지할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 비커스경도와 색을 고려하면 기존 19K인 Au1보다 18K의 Au2 조성에서도 퍼플골드 구현이 가능하였다. 이후 Au2 조성으로 블랙홀과 아라크네를 모티브로 하여 실제 주얼리 제품을 성공적으로 제조하였다.

The pottery stones from the Taebek area consist of abundant quartz with kaolinite. In this study, the characteristics of pottery stones were examined by XRD (X-ray diffractometer), XRF (X-ray fluorescence spectrometer), TG-DTA and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope). The chemical compositions of the raw ore showed 71.75 wt%$SiO_2$, 22.10 wt%$Al_2O_3$, 1.86 wt%CaO, 2.97 wt%$K_2O$, 0.62 wt%$Fe_2O_3$. When pottery stone of 3 mm size was leached at $80^{\circ}C$ with 10 % oxalic acid, the content of $Fe_2O_3$ was reduced from 0.62 wt% to 0.24 wt% and the whiteness was enhanced. Grinding of pottery stone was conducted by a planetary ball mill using media of zirconia, the average particle size was 2～5 $\mu\textrm{m}$.

Samples with the compositions of Mg-10wt.%Ni and Mg-25wt.%Ni were prepared by mechanical alloying in a planetary mill. $Mg_2Ni$ phase was formed in the mixture with hydriding dehydriding cycling. The activation of Mg-10wt.%Ni and Mg-25wt.%Ni was completed after n=7 and n=6 around, respectively, at 583K, $0{\sim}8barH_2$. Mg-10wt.% Ni and Mg-25wt. %Ni are considered as excellent hydrogen-storage materials with very high hydriding rates, high dehydriding rates and relatively large hydrogen-storage capacity. The effets of mechanical alloying and hydriding dehydriding cycling are considered the augmentation in the density of active nucleation sites and the diminution in the particle size.

A refractory grade low-cost silicon nitride powder was chemically analyzed, purified, and gas pressure sintered with the sintering additives. As-received powder contained a significant amount of free-Si, 0.72 wt% of Fe, 0.5 wt% of al and 0.31 wt% of Ca. Oxygen and carbon contents of the powder were 3.3 wt% and 0.4 wt%, respectively, and it consisted of 96% of $\beta$-phase and 4% of $\alpha$-phase. After lowering the Fe content and nitriding treatment, the powder was sintered with 6 wt% yttria and 2 wt% alumina for 1 h between 1823 K and 2123 K in order to examine the sintering behavior. Fully dense samples were obtained by sintering at 2123k for 2h. For comparison, a commercially available high-grade powder was also sintered at the same time. The low-cost powder showed much slower densification rate than the high-grade powder. Fully dense sample prepared from the low-cost powder contained a number of coarse grains with a low aspect ratio, and its hardness, fracture toughness, flexural strength and thermal shock resistance were not as good as those of the sample prepared with the high-grade powder.
