Effects of GBF (gas bubbling filtration) treatment conditions and scrap ratio on the electric conductivity of a commercial pure aluminum for diecasting were investigated using by specific gravity and electrical conductivity measurement system, hydrogen gas analyzer, XRD, and EDS. Electrical conductivities of specimen mixed Al scrap ratio until 60% from 0% were decreased with increasing the precipitates amount and size of AlFeSi ternary intermetallic compound on the grain boundary as well as amount of porosity in the grain. On the other hand, electrical conductivities was reincreased gradually in spite of scrap ratio increase from 80% to 100%. Size of AlFeSi compound formed on the grain boundary were coarsened with the increament of scrap ratios untill 80% and GBF treatment time simultaneously.

In this study, the capacitance-voltage properties of $(Sr_{1-x}\cdot Ca_x)TiO_3(0.05{\leq}x{\leq}0.20)$-based grain boundary layer ceramics were investigated. The ceramics were fabricated by the conventional mixed oxide method. The sintering temperature and time were $1480\sim1500^{\circ}C$ and 4 hours. respectively. The 2nd phase formed by the thermal diffusion of CuO from the surface leads to very excellent dielectric properties, that is, ${\varepsilon}_r$ >50000, tan$\delta$ <0.05, ${\Delta}C$ < ${\pm}10%.$ The capacitance is almost unchanged below about 20[V] but it decreases slowly about 20[V]. The results of the capacitance-voltage properties indicated that the grain boundary was composed of the continuous insulating layers.

To understand the formation of core-shell structure in $BaTiO_3$ (BT) grains in multilayer ceramic capacitors, specimens were prepared with BT powders mixed with Y and Mg, and their microstructures were investigated with scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffractometry, and transmission electron microscopy. Microstructural investigation showed that Y dissolved easily in BT lattice to a certain depth inside of the grain, whereas Mg tended to stay at grain boundaries rather than become incorporated into BT. It was considered that in case of Y and Mg addition in a proper ratio, Y could play a dominant role in the formation of shell leading to a slight dissolution of Mg in the shell. Next, the effects of ball-milling conditions on the core-shell formation were studied. As the ball-milling time increased, the milled powders did not show a significant change in size distribution but rather an increase of residual strain, which was attributed to the milling damage. The increase in milling damage facilitated the shell formation, leading to the increased shell portion in the core-shell grain.

In this work, powder metallurgy and severe plastic deformation by high-pressure torsion (HPT) approaches were combined to achieve both full density and grain refinement at the same time. Pure Cu powders were mixed with 5 and 10 vol% diamonds and consolidated into disc-shaped samples at room temperature by HPT at 1.25 GPa and 1 turn, resulting in ultrafine grained metallic matrices embedded with diamonds. Neither heating nor additional sintering was required with the HPT process so that in situ consolidation was successfully achieved at ambient temperature. Significantly refined grain structures of Cu metallic matrices with increasing diamond volume fractions were observed by electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), which enhanced the microhardness of the Cu-diamond composites.

Geopolymer materials are attractive as inorganic binders due to their superior mechanical and eco-friendly properties. In the current study, geopolymer-based cement was prepared using aluminosilicate minerals from fly-ash with KOH as an alkaline-activator and $Na_2SiO_3$ as liquid glass. Then, calcium carbonate powder from a clam shell was mixed with the geopolymer and the mixture was coated on a concrete surface to provide points of attachment for environmental organisms to grow on the geopolymers. We investigated the effect of the shell powder grain size on the microstructure and bonding property of the geopolymers. A homogeneous geopolymer layer coated well on the concrete surface via aluminosilicate bonding, but the adhesiveness of the shell powder on the geopolymer cement was dependent on the grain size of the shell powder. Superior adhesive characteristics were shown in the shell powder of large grain size due to the deep penetration into the geopolymer by their large weight. This kind of coating can be applied to the adhesiveness of eco-materials on the surface of seaside or riverside blocks.

The low-temperature sinterability of TiO₂-CuO systems was investigated using a solid solution of SnO₂. Sample powders were prepared through conventional ball milling of mixed raw powders. With the SnO₂ content, the compositions of the samples were Ti_1-xSn_xO₂-CuO(2 wt.%) in the range of x ≤ 0.08. Compared with the samples without SnO₂ addition, the densification was enhanced when the samples were sintered at 900℃. The dominant mass transport mechanism seemed to be grain-boundary diffusion during heat treatment at 900℃, where active grain-boundary diffusion was responsible for the improved densification. The rapid grain growth featured by activated sintering was also obstructed with the addition of SnO₂. This suggested that both CuO as an activator and SnO₂ dopant synergistically reduced the sintering temperature of TiO₂.

The (1-x)$MgTiO_3-SrTiO_3$ (x=0,0.1,0.2,0.3) ceramics were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The structural properties were investigated with sintering temperature and composition ratio by XRD, SEM and DT-TGA. Increasing the sintering temperature from $1300^{\circ}C$ to $1600^{\circ}C$, second phase was decreased and grain size was increased. The average grain size of the $0.8MgTiO_3-0.2SrTiO_3$ ceramics sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$ were $3.61{\mu}m$.

The effects of the deposition temperature on the growth characteristics of the ZnO films were studied for film bulk acoustic wave resonator (FBAR) device applications. All films were deposited using a radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering technique. It was found that the growth characteristics of the ZnO films have a strong dependence on the deposition temperature from 25 to $350^{\circ}C$. The ZnO films deposited below $200^{\circ}C$ exhibited reasonably good columnar grain structures with a highly preferred c-axis orientation while those above 200°C showed very poor columnar grain structures with a mixed-axis orientation. This study seems very useful for the future FBAR device applications.

The effects of flux KCl and dopant Nb2O5 on the PTCR characteristics of BaTiO3 prepared by molten salt synthesis method have been investigated. As the amount of dopant Nb2O5 is over the solubility limit in BaTiO3, the room-temperature resistivity increases, and the PTCR effect and the grain size decrease. The variation of the amount of flux KCl slightly influences on the room-temperature resistivity, PTCR effect and grain size in Nb2O5 doped BaTiO3, but BaTiO3 ceramics prepared by the method of molten salt synthesis show larger PTCR effect than those of conventional calcining of mixed oxides.

This study attempted to characterize the powder and sintered specimen of Mn-Zn ferrite that was prepared by Hot Petroleum Drying Method. The results of the experiment were as follows: 1. The mixed sulfate powder prepared by Hot Petroleum Drying Method was homogeneous and very reactive. The ferrite formation of this powder occurred at lower temperature than the one prepared by Sulfate Dry Mixing Method. 2. The calcined oxide powder prepared by Hot Petroleum Drying Method was found to be agglomerated, and therefore it was very difficult to compact this powder. 3. The sintered density was 4.95g/㎤, 97% of the theoretical density, when the specimen was prepared by Hot Petroleum Drying method, calcined at 90$0^{\circ}C$ in air for 3h, sintered at 1,30$0^{\circ}C$ in air for 3h, and then cooled in nitrogen. 4. The discontinuous grain growth occurred at lower temperature in the specimen prepared by Hot Petroleum Dyring Method than in the one prepared by Sulfate Dry Mixing Method. The discontinuous grain growth was considered to be due to the presence of liquid formed by addition of CaO and $SiO_2$.
