High purity alumina and amorphous silica were prepared from Ha-dong kaolin by means of appliance of sulfuric acid. The effect of sulfuric acid concentration, reaction temperature and reaction time on the formation of aluminum sulfate was investigated. The precipitation conditions ofaluminum sulfate from the sulfuric acid solution with ethanol and ammonium hydroxide were deteremined. In the optimum condition, the conversion of aluminum oxide in kaolin to aluminum oxide powder was 85.0 percent. Alumina powder was prepared by calcination of the precipitates, and its purity was 99.0 percent.

LAS system, which is difficult to be sintered, was densified by using the powder synthesized from metal alkoxides. Sinterability, thermal and mechanical properties were improved through synthesizing the complex oxide powder from the addition of Ge as an alkoxide. As a result, the synthesizing and sintering temperature of the LAS system lowered by about 10$0^{\circ}C$ and its modulus of rupture (MOR) increased twice higher compared to the sample from the oxide by the direct method.

A new method is proposed for the oxide lattice energy calculation. It is consisted of (1) setting a central and a computation domains in a real lattice, (2) calculation of inter-ionic potential producted by the associated portion of each ion to the relative domain, and (3) summing up the potential energies. Even with a slight expansion of the domain, the lattice energy converges to the published data. The method is superior than any other reported due to the simple and clear concept and the reduced computing.

In order to evaluate the oxidation behavior of $\beta$-Sialon, $\beta$-Sialon ceramics was prepared from Si3N4, Al2O3, AlN and Y2O3 system. The specimens were oxidized in an oxygen atmosphere at 1, 20$0^{\circ}C$ for 9days. Oxidation behavior was evaluated by weight gain oxidation process, surface roughness. Microscopy, EDX and X-ray diffraction analysis were also used for the evaluation. The weight and surface roughness ofoxidized specimens were increased with increasing the oxidation time. Oxidized products were mullite, $\alpha$-cristobalite, yttrium aluminum oxide and yttrium silicate oxide.

Electrostatic interaction is a very important parameter for the membrane selectivity. In this work, the electrical double layer establishment on the surface of metal oxide material from the Stern-Grahame model has been described. Then, some examples of rejection using micro and mesoporous ceramic membranes have been given. A correlation between the charges of the membrane material and the species to be filtered has been precised. Two rejection mechanisms have to be taken into account the size of the solutes and the electrostatic interactions.

Rare-earth zirconates, such as lanthanum zirconates and gadolinium zirconates, have been intensively investigated due to their excellent properties of low thermal conductivity as well as chemical stability at high temperature, which can make these materials ones of the most promising candidates for next-generation thermal barrier coating applications. In this study, three compositions, lanthanum/gadolinium zirconates with reduced rare-earth contents from stoichiometric $RE_2Zr_2O_7$ compositions, are fabricated via solid state reaction as well as sintering at $1600^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs. The phase formation, microstructure, and thermo-physical properties of three oxide ceramics are examined. In particular, each oxide ceramics exhibits composite structures between pyrochlore and fluorite phases. The potential of lanthanum/gadolinium zirconate ceramics for TBC applications is also discussed.

Thermal barrier systems have been widely investigated over the past decades, in order to enhance reliability and efficiency of gas turbines at higher temperatures. Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is one of the most leading materials as the thermal barriers due to its low thermal conductivity, thermodynamic stability, and thermal compatibility with metal substrates. In this work, rare-earth oxides with pyrochlore phases for thermal barrier systems were investigated. Pyrochlore phases were successfully formed via solid-state reactions started from rare-earth oxide powders. For the heat-treated samples, thermo-physical properties were examined. These rare-oxide oxides showed thermal expansion of $9{\sim}12{\times}10^{-6}/K$ and thermal conductivity of 1.2~2.4 W/mK, which is comparable with the thermal properties of YSZ.

Gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃) thin films were grown on c-, a-, m-, r-plane sapphire substrates using a mist chemical vapor deposition system. Various growth temperature range of 400~600℃ was applied for Ga₂O₃ thin film deposition. Then, several structural properties were characterized such as film thickness, crystal phase, lattice orientation, surface roughness, and optical bandgap. Under the certain growth temperature of 500℃, all grown Ga₂O₃ featured rhombohedral crystal structures and well-aligned preferred orientation to sapphire substrate. The films grown on c-and r-plane sapphire substrates, showed low surface roughness and large optical bandgap compared to those on a-and m-plane substrates. Therefore, various sapphire orientation can be potentially applicable for future Ga₂O₃-based electronics applications.

An electrode for supercapacitor using 3-dimensional porous nickel foam as a current collector and cobalt oxide as an active material was prepared and characterized in terms of morphology observation, crystalline property analysis, and the investigation of electrochemical property. The electrode surface showed that the cobalt oxide was homogeneously coated as the crystalline phase of $Co_3O_4$. Cyclic voltammetry for the $Co_3O_4$/nickel foam electrode exhibited higher specific capacitance values (445 F/g at 10 mV/s and 350 F/g at 200 mV/s) and excellent capacitance retention ratio (99% after $10^4$ cycles). It was proved that the nickel foam substrate played the roles in reducing the interfacial resistance with cobalt oxide and in improving the electrode density by embedding greater amount of cobalt oxide within it.
