This study was carried out to investigate the species of iron compounds in kaolin mineral and the bonding relation between the major kaolin and its subordinate iron compound existing as incidental mineral in common clay by means of chemical composition, X-ray diffraction, thermal differential and thermogravimetrie analysis for the application of clays in the field of ceramic raw material. The domestic clay are produced abounduntly in many places, but San-Cheong kaolin, Chu-An clay, and Yeong-Am clay were selected as samples in this experiment because of their frequent utilization in porcelain industry. Two kinds of samples with low and high iron content are picked up respectively from the place of production and elutriated under two micron size to determine the properties and concentration of iron compound very fine particles or colloidal substance of low crystalline grade. Therefore, hydrothermal treatment in autoclave was conducted considering the existence of low crystalline grade of iron compounds known as an amorphoue state in X-ray diffraction pattern furthermore, de-iron treatment of hydrothermal compound was done in order to identify the related iron compound before and after hydrothermal reaction and iron compound which is one of the samples was synthesized for the determination of their compounds state in more detail. The obtained results in this study are as follows: In San-Cheong kaolin, Chu-An clay and Yeong-Am clay 1) It is proved that species accompanying iron compound is $\alpha$-FeOOH form. 2) Iron compound is composed of very fine particles or colloidal substance. 3) The iron substance encircles the fine parts of clay minerals under 2 micron and acts as cementizing agent.

Aluminium titanate($Al_2TiO_5$) has extremely anisotropic thermal expansion properties in single crystals, and polycrystalline material spontaneously microcracks in the cooling step after sintering process. These fine intergranular cracks limit the strength of the material, but provide an effective mechanism for absorbing strain energy during thermal shock and preventing catastrophic crack propagation. Furthermore, since machinable BN-ceramics used as an insulating substrate in current micro-electronic industry are very expensive, the development of new low-cost machinable substrate ceramics are consistently required. Therefore, cheap $Al_2TiO_5$-machinable ceramics was studied for the replacement of BN ceramics. $Al_2O_3-Al_2TiO_5$ ceramic composite was fabricated via in-situ reaction sintering. $Al_2O_3$ and $TiO_2$ powders were mixed with various mol-ratio and sintered at 1400 to $1600^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. Density, hardness and strength of sintered ceramics were systematically measured. Phase analysis and microstructures were observed by XRD and SEM, respectively. Machinability of each specimens was tested by micro-hole machining. The results of research showed that the $Al_2TiO_5$-composites could be used for low-cost machinable ceramics.

Technical ceramics, due to their unique physical properties, are excellent candidate materials for engineering applications involving extreme thermal and chemical environments. When ceramics are rapidly cooled, they receive thermal shock. The thermal shock parameter is defined as the critical temperature difference. The critical temperature difference for ceramic parts is influenced by its size, the convective heat transfer coefficient, etc. The thermal shock for a component is analyzed by using the transient thermal stress. If the transient thermal stress exceeds the modulus of rupture (MOR), cracking by thermal shock is initiated. The critical temperature difference for water is less than the critical temperature difference for air. The three-way catalyst substrate used in this study has an adequate performance against thermal shock because its radial and axial temperature differences existed below the critical temperature differences.

The research was performed to find out the optimum firing condition for the $SnO_2-TiO_2-V_2O_5$ system yellow pigment. The pigment based on $SnO_2-V_2O_5$ system showed very intense yellow color and it was used widely in ceramics industry. Synthesized pigment, with partial substitutions of $SnO_2\;by\;TiO_2$, was fired at $1300{^{\circ}C}$ soaking 1h and it showed bright yellow color. $SnO_2-TiO_2-V_2O_5$ system was very more intensive changes in yellow color by colorimetric value $b^*$ than $SnO_2-V_2O_5$ system. Synthesized yellow pigments were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), FT-IR, and UV-vis spectroscopy. The best composition for yellow pigment was 93:7:0.5(mole%) for $SnO_2-V_2O_5-TiO_2$. The measurement of CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ of pigment was $L^*(78.82),\;a^*(-4.88)\;and\;b^*$(59.25).

Modern ceramics art has various expression techniques. Among them, the digitization of modern society has led to the development of the transfer printing technique, and the technique of transfer printing has been utilized as medium of expression of modern ceramics. However, the transfer printing technique is merely uniform and does not give enough information to utilize the artistic expression of the craftsmen using the technique of decal rather than actively utilizing it in the field for mass production. Therefore. In this paper, we will examine the works of contemporary pottery artists who understand the meaning of the transfer printing technique and express the artist 's personality and artistry with transfer printing technique, so that the transfer printing technique can enhance the aesthetic and artistic effect of ceramic art as the expression medium of modern ceramics. We want to lay the foundations for a higher value-added industry.

In recent years, while the importance of thermal management has been emphasized due to smaller electronic products, various materials have been used as heat sink. In this study, porous ceramic heat sink was developed with SiC, successfully separated from the slurry of SiC occurring in solar energy materials industry and the thermal performance of porous SiC heat sink has been compared with those of aluminum heat sink and pure SiC heat sink through experiment. From the experimental results, it was verified that porous recycled SiC heat sink has better thermal performance than aluminum heat sink since its micropores increase the heat transfer area. In addition, the effect of the micropores on thermal performance has been quantified by increasing convective heat transfer coefficient with numerical analysis.

Ag paste has been used in the front electrode of the Si-solar cell. It is composed by Ag powder, glass frit, binder, solvent and dispersant. The role of the binder and the solvent is to make a flow and a printing property. However, it was not enough to report the printing properties with the variation of binder in the controled viscosity. In this study, we selected 3 kinds of typical binder which were used as binder for the paste in the industry, such as Ethyl cellulose, Hydroxypropyl cellulose and Acrylic. Ag pastes using these were prepared, controled viscosity and printed on the SiNx coated Si wafer. In the 'A paste' used Acrylic binder, printed hight was highest and 'H paste' used Hydroxypropyl cellulose binder was lowest. Because 'H paste' was high viscosity due to the molecular weight, the solvent was added in the paste to control the viscosity. Therefore, the content of solid was lower in 'H paste'. The relative pattern width which is related to the spreading of paste was the best in the case of 'H paste' and 'EH paste' at $30^{\circ}C$. It is thought that the optimization of the relative pattern width is possible for a paste by the controling shear thinning phenomenon. In the case of 'A paste', though printing hight was best, the pattern width was dependant on the temperature.

Machinability is important in engineering applications, especially in the current micro-electronics industry. Most ceramic components have complex shapes and hence require machining generally with diamond tools, which incurs a high production cost. Recently, h-BN-containing machinable ceramics have been developed, but these materials are very expensive due to the high raw materials and production costs. Therefore, the development of low-cost machinable ceramics is necessary. In this study, inexpensive $Al_2TiO_5$ was studied as a replacement for h-BN. $Al_2O_3$, $TiO_2$ and partially stabilized $ZrO_2$(PSZ) powders were mixed with various mole ratios and were sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The density, hardness and strength were then measured. The phase analysis and microstructures were observed by XRD and SEM, respectively. The machinability of each specimen was tested by micro-hole machining. The results of this research showed that the produced composites could be used as low-cost machinable ceramics.
