In order to improve the productivity and quality of the hot rolled products, many morden mills have continuously required advanced roll materials. The introduction of HSS rolls in early stands of the Hot Strip Mill brought the excellent performance in wear resistance and surface roughness. Ni-grain rolls used in the later stands was needed to improve the roll performance. Therefore, the carbide reinforced Ni-grain roll was developed. The present paper will describe the development of carbide reinforced rolls made by INI STEEL and the results of mill tests. The wear resistance was increased upto $40\%$ and the anti-accident ablility was remarkably improved compared to the normal Ni-rain roll.

Silicon carbide porous materials used for hot gas filters were prepared using oxide binder. Chamotte, frit and H3PO4 were starting materials to synthesize the oxide binder for high temperature-use. Room temperature bending strength of the silicon carbide porous body was increased with increasing firing temprature or with the amount of the content of frit in the oxide binder. However, in the oxidebinder fired above132$0^{\circ}C$, cristobalite form of AlPO4 phase which undergoes rapid inversion became more prominent with increasing firing time. the average pore size of the silicon carbide filter materials was found to be about one third of the average grain size of the silicon carbide powder used in this study.

This study concerns the vibrational behavior of multi-walled nested silicon-carbide and carbon nanotubes using the finite element method. The beam elements are used to model the carbon-carbon and silicon-carbon bonds. Besides, spring elements are employed to simulate the van der Waals interactions between walls. The effects of nanotube arrangement, number of walls, geometrical parameters and boundary conditions on the frequencies of nested silicon-carbide and carbon nanotubes are investigated. It is shown that the double-walled nanotubes have larger frequencies than triple-walled nanotubes. Besides, replacing silicon carbide layers with carbon layers leads to increasing the frequencies of nested silicon-carbide and carbon nanotubes. Comparing the first ten mode shapes of nested nanotubes, it is observed that the mode shapes of armchair and zigzag nanotubes are almost the same.

This paper reports on the finite elements analysis for die compaction process of cemented carbide tool parts. Experimental data were obtained under die compaction and triaxial compression with various loading conditions. The elastoplastic constitutive equations based on the yield function of Shima and Oyane were implemented into an explicit finite element program (ABAQUS/Explicit) and implicit finite element program (PMsolver/Compaction-3D) to simulate compaction response of cemented carbide powder during die compaction. For simulation of die compaction, the material parameters for Shima and Oyane model were obtained by uniaxial die compaction test. Explicit finite element results were compared with implicit results for cemented carbide powder.

Reaction-Bonded Silicon Carbide (RBSC) Ceramics were fabricated which satisfies the maximum packing density of silicon carbide skeleton in the green compacts. Such a high packing density induced incomplete infiltration during reaction-sintering; forms linear void around the interface of large alpha silicon carbide powders. During reaction-sintering, the limited extraction and entrapped gas induced by residue oxide was considered to be a reason of linear void formation. In order to improve infiltration behavior in the highly packed preform, the pre-treatment methods for residue oxide removal were proposed.

A Sintered carbide roller mold for reflectors which is used for cover of automobile lamp and beacon plate of highway has been developed. The geometry of sintered carbide roller mold has been determined from the analysis of reflector geometry. An acute angle diamond wheel and dressing system also has been designed and developed to manufacture the sintered carbide roller mold.

Carbon nanofibers with an average diameter of 100nm were reacted with SiO vapor generated from a mixture of Si and SiO2 to produce silicon carbide nanofibers at temperature ranging 1200∼1500$^{\circ}C$ under vacuum. The nanofiber reacted at 1200$^{\circ}C$ for two hours consisted of silicon carbide with an average crystallite size of 10-20nm, amorphous silica and a significant amount of unreacted carbon. The surface area of silicon carbide nanofiber, obtained after removal of amorphous silica and unreacted carbon from converted carbon nanofibers at 1200$^{\circ}C$, was as high as 150㎡/g. With increasing reaction temperature to 1500$^{\circ}C$, the surface area was decreased to 14㎡/g. Growth of SiC crystallite size with increasing conversion temperature of carbon nanofiber was confirmed from Scherrer formula using the (111) diffraction line and TEM images of converted carbon nanofibers.

WC-TiC-TaC binderless cemented carbide was oxidized under low partial pressure of oxygen (50ppm) at 873K for 1 to 20 h. Surface roughness was measured using atomic force microscope, and effect of TiC amount on oxidation behavior of the carbide was investigated. WC phase was oxidized more easily than WC-TiC-TaC solid solution phase. With an increase in TiC amount, WC-TiC-TaC phase increased and the oxidation resistance of the carbide increased.

The erosion characteristice of plasma-sprayed tungsten carbide chromium carbide coatings were investigated. Erosion tests were perfomed at room temperature by using Al2O3 and SiC particles accleerated in air stream. Weight losses of the coatings were measured over a range of paricle velocities and impingement angle. It was found that, for both of this coatings, the maximum erosion occurrd at a normal angle of impact, and the erosion rate at this impact angle was a power function of pparticle velocity. The values of the velocty emponent were between 3.07 and 3.50 Erosion value of chromium carbide coating was higher than that of tungsten carbide coating.

The preparation and characterization of niobium carbide crystallites were investigated in this study, and in particular, the effect of preparation conditions were studied on the synthesis of niobium carbides crystallites. For this purpose, various characterization techniques including x-ray diffraction, BET surface area, and oxygen uptake measurements were employed to characterize the synthesized niobium carbide crystallites. The niobium carbide crystallites were prepared using niobium oxide and methane gas or methane-hydrogen mixture. Using x-ray diffraction a lattice parameter of $4.45{\AA}$ and a crystallite size ranging from $52{\AA}$ to $580{\AA}$ was found. BET surface areas ranged from $3.2\;m^2/g$ to $16.6\;m^2/g$ and oxygen uptake values varied from $0.5{\mu}mol/g$ to $6.1{\mu}mol/g$. It was observed that niobium carbide crystallites were active for ammonia decomposition reaction. While the BET surface area increased with increasing the oxygen uptake, the conversion of ammonia decomposition reaction decreased. These results indicated that the ammonia decomposition over these materials was considered to be structure-sensitive.
