The status of structural ceramics in Japan is presented. Use of ceramics for structural components had been limited due to their brittleness, and the successful application was wear resistant parts such as thread guides and ceramic cutting tools up to around 1980. Since then, considerable work has been done for applying ceramics to mechanical parts, and automotive components made of silicon nitride were developed and commercialized in 1980s. Unfortunately, the application of silicon nitride to automotive engines is not so popular in these days. Instead, a variety of structural ceramics such as alumina, silicon carbide and zirconia have recently extended the market, and the expanded application includes vacuum process parts for manufacturing semiconductor and liquid crystal devices, refractory tubes for casting aluminum alloy, and dies for optical lens forming. In addition, cordierite honeycombs and diesel particulate filters are widely used in automobiles. In the present review, the recent application of structural ceramics to automobiles and industries in Japan is summarized.

Titanium alloys have the characteristics of lightness, high strength and good corrosion resistant and are broadly used in manufacturing parts for military and aerospace industries. These alloys are also recognized for organism materials comparatively and used as fixing ones in human body. Nevertheless titanium alloys have excellent properties, it is difficult to machine by traditional methods because of high hardness and chemically activated property. So higher tool wear is expected when cutting by conventional tools, so it is required nontraditional machining process. Finally, the mechanical characteristics such as surface roughness, shape and hardness on studied for wire electrical discharge machined and pound surfaces of titanium alloys for different heat-tested conditions.

The cemented carbide and stainless steel were bonded using a hot-vacuum brazing method to analyze the bonding interface. Since it is suitable for the hot vacuum brazing, nickel metal was used as a binder among the main components of the cemented carbide, and a new cemented carbide material was developed by adjusting the alloy composition. The paste, which is one of the important factors affecting the hot vacuum brazing bonding, was able to improve brazing adhesion by mixing solder as Ni powder and a binder as an organic compound at an appropriate ratio. Division of the stainless steel yielded a dense brazing result. This study elucidated the interfacial characteristics of wear-resistant parts by bonding stainless steel and cemented carbide via hot vacuum brazing.

Metal matrix composites had generated a lot of interest in recent times because of significant in specific properties. It was also highlighted as the materials of frontier industry because strength, heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, wear-resistant were superiored. In this study the strength properties of $Al_{18}B_4O_{33}/AC4CH$ were represented mixing the binder of $Al_2O_3$ and $TiO_2$. It was also fabricated by squeeze casting. $Al_{18}B_4O_{33}/AC4CH$ was fabricated at the melt temperature of $760^{\circ}C$ the perform temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ and mold temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ under the pressure of 83.4MPa and observed SEM. Fatigue crack growth rate tests on compact tension specimen(half-size) of thickness 12.5mm were conducted by using sinusoidal waveform. Compact tension specimens(half-size) were used and fatigue crack growth rate da/dN and stress intensity factor range ${\Delta}K$ were analyzed concerning to the R value of 0.1 and 0.05. In order to find out the value of ${\Delta}K$, load amplitude constant method was applied by the standard fatigue testing method describes in ASTM E647-95a. As the results of this study, Fatigue crack growth rate increased with in creasing the load ratio, Consequently, At equivalent stress intensity factors, the fatigue crack growth rates in MMC were faster than those of AC4CH alloy. then the fatigue life and the fatigue crack growth rate was investigated using scanning election microscopy(SEM)

표면 경화가 요구되는 소재에 코발트계 합금 분말을 용사 소모재로 하고 플라즈마 트랜스퍼드 아크(PTA) 용사 공정을 이용하여 표면 개질부를 제조하였다. 표면 개질부는 다른 용사 변수는 일정하게 유지한 상태에서 용사 전류만을 변화하여 제조하였다. 용사 전류를 80에서 140 amp까지 20 amp씩 증가하면서 개질층을 제조하였다. 두께가 일정한 모재에 전류를 변화하여 표면 개질층을 제조하는 경우 용사후 모재에서 발생하는 냉각 효과가 다르게 되고 이는 개질층의 폭과 두께 등의 기하학적 형상과 미세 조직, 그리고 미세경도 등의 특성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 용사 전류를 120amp로 사용한 경우 미세조직이 조밀하고 미세경도 값이 가장 높은 값을 나타내는 개질층을 얻을 수 있었다. 전류를 증가함에 따라 개질층의 폭은 증가하지만 높이는 큰 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났다.

Titanium alloys have high specific strength, excellent corrosion and wear resistance, as well as high heat-resistant strength compared to conventional steel materials. As intermetallic compounds based on Ti, TiAl alloys are becoming increasingly popular in the aerospace field because these alloys have low density and high creep properties. In spite of those advantages, the low ductility at room temperature and difficult machining performance of TiAl and $Ti_3Al$ materials has limited their potential applications. Titanium powder can be used in such cases for weight and cost reduction. Herein, pre-forms of Ti-Al-xMn powder alloys are fabricated by compression forming. In this process, Ti powder is added to Al and Mn powders and compressed, and the resulting mixture is subjected to various sintering temperature and holding times. The density of the powder-sintered specimens is measured and evaluated by correlation with phase formation, Mn addition, Kirkendall void, etc. Strong Al-Mn reactions can restrain Kirkendall void formation in Ti-Al-xMn powder alloys and result in increased density of the powder alloys. The effect of Al-Mn reactions and microstructural changes as well as Mn addition on the high-temperature compression properties are also analyzed for the Ti-Al-xMn powder alloys.

The Inconel 718 alloy is a well-known super-heat-resistant alloy and a difficult-to-cut material. Inconel 718 with excellent corrosion and heat resistance is used in harsh environments. However, the heat generated is not released owing to excellent physical properties, making processes (e.g., adhesion and thermal fatigue) difficult. Tool condition monitoring in machining is significant in reducing manufacturing costs. The cutting tool is easily broken and worn because of the material properties of Inconel 718. Therefore, tool management is required to improve tool life and machinability. This study proposes a method of predicting the tool wear with non-contacting sensors (e.g., IR thermometer for measuring the cutting temperature and a microphone for measuring the sound pressure level in machining). The cutting temperature and sound pressure fluctuation according to the tool condition and cutting force are analyzed using experimental data. This experiment verifies the effectiveness of the non-contact measurement signals in tool condition monitoring.

최근에 상용차용 디젤 엔진의 성능 향상을 목적으로 엔진 설계가 급격히 변화되면서 캠 팔로우어(cam follower)와 캠(cam) 사이에 작용하는 접동면 하중의 증가로 접동면에서의 마모가 중요한 문제가 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 주절체 및 소결합금 캠 팔로우어에 비해 내마모성이 우수한 세라믹 캠 팔로우어를 개발하였다. 잔류 응력을 완화시켜주는 중간층을 사용하지 않고 질화규소($Si_3N_4$) 팁과 중탄소강을 활성납재를 사용하여 직접 접합후 냉각시키는 과정에서 두 모재의 열팽창계수차에 의한 크라우닝(crowning, R) 이 형성되도록 하였다. 접합에 사용한 중탄소강은 열팽창시 이력(hysteresis) 거동을 나타내었으며, $A_{c1}$ 변태점인 $723^{\circ}C$ 이하에서 접합할 경우 원하는 크라우닝이 형성되었다. 접합온도가 $723^{\circ}C$ 이상이 되면 크라우닝 (R) 값이 온도에 따라 지수함수적으로 증가하였으며 이는 중탄소강의 상변태에 의한 열팽창.수축의 이력 특성으로 설명되어질 수 있었다. 규격에 맞는 크라우닝이 형성되는 최적 접합 온도는 $700~720^{\circ}C$의 범위였다. 질화규소와 중탄소강의 직접 접합방법으로 접합과 동시에 크라우닝을 형성시키고 제어함으로써 난가공재인 세라믹을 곡면 가공하지 않고도 적당한 곡률을 갖는 저가의 세라믹 캠 팔로우어를 제조할 수 있었다.
