The study was performed with low-grade limestone, which is used to make cement or is disposed of due to its low CaO content. In this study, the optimal condition of limestone with which to manufacture precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) and limestone in fiber was determined through in-situ reactions. The best firing condition is with slaked lime with rapid cooling after 2 h of firing at $1000^{\circ}C$. In addition, the content of CaO can be increased by sorting the low-grade limestone using a 200 mesh filter, and the optical quality of old newspaper (ONP) was similar when using both low-grade and high-grade limestone. Also, controlling the particle size of PCC is an important factor pertaining to the optical characteristics of paper.

$BiNbO_4$ ceramics doped with 0.07wt% $V_2O_5$ and 0.03wt% CuO (BNC3V7) were sucessfully sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ through the firing process with Ag electrode. The BNC3V7 shows typically Dielectric constant of 44.3, Thermal Coefficient of resonance Frequency(TCF) of 2 ppm/$^{\circ} and $Qxf_o$ value of 22,000 GHz. The laminated chip Low Pass Filter (LPF) is very sensitive to chip processing parameters, was confirmed by the computer simulation as a function of Q(Quality factors), filter size, capacitor layer thickness, inductor pattern widths. The multilayer type LPF was fabricated by screen-printing with Ag electrode after tape casting and then compared with the simulated characteristics. The results show that characterization of band pass width was similar to that of designed ones.

We have synthesized $CaS:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor by using a sealing vessel and evaluated its photoluminescence properties. The method using a sealing vessel is simple and economical in comparison with other methods reported up to date, As an activator concentration was increased from 0.1 mol to 4 mol, the main emission wavelength of the phosphor was increased from 642 nm to 651 nm due to crystal field splitting of 5d level of $Eu^{2+}$ ions. Although the same amount of $Eu_2O_3$ was used, the concentration of the activator ions which were reduced from $Eu^{3+}$ to $Eu^{2+}$ and substituting $Ca^{2+}$ ions was increased with increase of firing temperature. Therefore, the main emission wavelength was also increased from 645 nm to 651 nm with increase of firing temperature from $1100^{\circ}C$ to $1300^{\circ}C$.

In this study, we proposed new forming process for a porous ceramic body with unique pore structure. h tubular-type porous NiO-YSZ body with radially aligned pore channels was prepared by freeze-drying of aqueous slurry. A NiO-YSZ slurry was poured into the mold, which was designed to control the crystallization direction of the ice, followed by freezing. Thereafter the ice was sublimated at a reduced pressure. SEM observations revealed that the NiO-YSZ porous body showed aligned large pore channels parallel to the ice growth direction, and fine pores are formed around the outer surface of the tube. It was considered that the difference in the ice growth rate during the freezing process resulted in such a characteristic microstructure. Bilayer consisting of dense thin electrolyte film of YSZ onto the tubular type porous body has been successfully fabricated using a slurry-coating process followed by co-firing. It was regarded that the obtained bilayer structure is suitable for constructing electrode-support type electrochemical devices such as solid oxide fuel cells.

The purposed of this study was to investigate the effect of Gold bonding agent as intermediate layer between metal substrate and ceramic coating. Gold bonding agent used to seal off any surface porosity, to mask the greyish color of the metal, and to provide an underlying bright golden hue to the ceramic coverage. The adhesion between metal substrate and ceramic is related to diffusion of oxygen during ceramic firing. The oxide layer produced on non-precious alloy anti titanium was considered to have a potentially adverse effect on metal-ceramic bonding. The oxidation characteristics of titanium and non-precious alloys are the main problem. Every group were divided into test and control groups. Control groups are carried out process of degassing for product oxide layer. Au coating was applied on each Ni-Cr, Co-Cr alloys and cp-Ti specimens with difference surface condition or degassing. Specimens surfaces and cutting plane was characterized by SEM/EDS. Results suggested that Au coating is effective barriers to protect metal oxidation during ceramic firing.

Substitution of the stacked antenna for the normally pressed antenna in the mobile phone was tried for the purpose of decreasing its size. However, reduced size resulted in the difficulties obtaining the targeted characteristics with the bandwidth over 70MHz. The cross-section of the vias in the low temperature co-firing ceramics process was studied to find out effects on the bandwidth characteristics. Circular and rectangular cross-section of the via beneath different types of antenna patterns were simulated. Better bandwidth characteristics were acquired for the larger diameter of the circular section and for the rectangular section as the cross-section area increased. From the viewpoint of the shape of the cross-section, rectangular area showed better characteristics than the circular area with the same longest length in the cross-section.

Green light emitting $Zn_2SiO_4$Mn and Al co-doped $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn phosphor were synthesized by a sol-gel method combined with a furnace firing. The luminescent properties of the sample have been investigated. We have found that the phosphor powder with uniform shape show the maximum luminescent intensity when it is prepared with sol-gel method and fired at relatively high temperature ($1100{\sim}1300^{\circ}C$).

Microwave dielectric properties of $BiNbO_4$ containing CuO and $V_2O_5$(BN ceramics). BN ceramic with 0.07wt% $V_2O_5$ and 0.03wt% CuO (BNC3V7) was sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ where it is possible for these to be co-fired with Ag electrode. The dielectric constant of 44.3, TCF (Temperature Coefficient of resonance Frequency) of 2 ppm/$^{\circ}$ and Q${\times}f_o$ value (product of Quality value and resonance Frequency) of 22,000GHz could be obtained from those ceramics. It is observed that orthorhombic structure was stable $1000^{\circ}C$. As sintering temperature increases, the dielectric properties decreased. The main reasons were abnormal grain growth and the main peak of triclinic moved from the main peak of orthorhombic.

In this study, in order to develop low temperature sintering ultrasonic nozzle, single-layer and multilayer ring-type piezoelectric actuators were manufactured using PMN-PNN-PZT ceramics, And then the electrical properties were investigated. A ring-type piezoelectric actuator was modeled by ATILA program using finite element method(FEM). The piezoelectric actuator dimension was $\Phi26.5$ (outer diameter), $\Phi12$ (inner diameter), 3.5 mm (thickness). By FEM analysis, resonant and anti-resonant frequencies were appeared as 56.7 kHz and 61.5 kHz. The displacement increased with the increases of the number of layer. Based on the result, ring-type multilayer piezoelectric actuators were manufactured at low co-firing temperature of $940^{\circ}C$. The resonant resistance decreased with the increases of the number of layer. And also, the capacitance increased with the increases of the number of layer. The mechanical quality factor (Qm) decreased with the increases of the number of layer.

Gas turbines for power generating operate in a very high temperature condition and use natural gas for fuel. For this reason, many cases of damage happen at hot gas parts which are severely affected by high temperature gas and many cases of explosion occur by fuel gas. So a lot of efforts should be made to prevent hot gas parts damage and gas explosion accidents. Though there are many damage cases and explosion accidents, it is very difficult to find out the root causes of hot gas parts damage caused by gas explosion due to gas leakage in the heat exchanger for air cooling and gas heating. To prevent gas turbine from damage caused by gas explosion, removal of leakage gas from gas turbine is inevitably required before firing the gas turbine and installing alarm systems is also required for detecting gas leakage at stop valve to turbine while shut down.
