The thermomechanical properties of materials from the system Al2O3-SiO2-TiO2(Tialite-Mullite) were investigated by correlating the thermal expansion anisotroypy, flexural strength and Young's modulus with grain size and atructural microcracking during cooling. Microcracking temperatures were determined by measuring the hysteresis of the thermal expansion anisotropy with dilatometry. Single phase Aluminium Titanate is a low strength material, while composites with more than 10 vol% mullite as second phase enhance the Young's modulus, thermal expansion coefficient and room temperature strength.

Fine spinel powder was prepared from the Mg-Al double alkoxide synthesized using magnesium powder, aluminum foil and sec-butyl alcohol. This powder was compared with powder prepared by mixing two commercial alkoxides. The spinelization was started at 50$0^{\circ}C$ and was almost completed at 100$0^{\circ}C$ with a good crystallinity in the double alkoxide system. In mixed alkoxide system, homogeneous spinel powder was not obtained and MgO existed as a second phase because of solubility and hydrolysis rate differences of two alkoxides. The relative density of specimen prepared by double alkoxide was 99% and specimen prepared by mixed alkoxide was 95%. The modulus of rupture of specimens prepared by double alkoxide and mixed alkoxide was 49.9kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$ and 41.6kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$, respectively.

In this study, we are observe to the sagger which is composed of cordierite-mullite system. And especialy, we investigated the characteristics of the body which composed of Chamotte-Kaolin-Plastic clay-Talc (or Clinochlore) system and Chamotte-Kaolin-Plastic clay-Agalmatolite-Talc (or Clinochlore) system. The obtained results are as follows. 1. Modulus of rupture and apparent porosity were improved by particle size of talc and clinochlore in order that -16 mesh, -6 mesh, 6-16 mesh. 2. When the body composed of talc, the modulus of rupture was increased as firing temperature was rising up but composed of clnochlore, it was reversed. 3. When added to the agalmatolite, firing shrinkage, modulus of rupture and apparent porosity were improved. 4. Mineral phases of samples fired at 125$0^{\circ}C$ above consist of cordierite, mullite and $\alpha$-cristobalite.

Thermal behavior of dickite was studied by thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction analysis, electron microprobe analysis, and scanning electron microscopy, Dickite has an endothermic peak at about$ 650^{\circ}C$ and an exothermic one at $960^{\circ}C$ in the differential thermal analysis. The endothermic reaction is assigned to the decomposition of dickite to meta-dickite. Hydroxyl radicals are removed from dickite structure by the reaction, resulting in the weight loss about 10.5~14.5% and appearance of a 14$\AA$ phase different from other kaolin minerals. The reaction slowly proceed in the range of $200^{\circ}C$. As the completion of decomposition, aciclular mullite forms at the expense of meta-dickite plates with random crystallographic relationship. Mullites have diverse silica versus alumina ratio. The exothermic reaction without weight loss seems to be due to the formation of spinel and amorphous silica. The spinel phase shows cryptocrystalline globular morphology accompanying a little amount of silica. From spinel phase shows cryptocrystalling globular morphology accompanying a little amount of silica. From this work, it is suggested that mullite is formed from meta-dickite much lower temperature than the reported one in the previous works.

1150, 1450, 1600.deg.C에서 MgO-SiO$_{2}$-Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$계를 유리성분으로 하는 mullite-glass질 회로기판재료의 소결거동에 미치는 MgO첨가량과 소성시간에 따른 영향을 조사하였으며 주로 소성시간이 밀도, 기공분포, 미세구조 및 생성상에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 1150.deg.C에서는 MgO의 첨가량에 관계없이 소결이 진행되지 않았으며 1450.deg.C에서는 MgO첨가량에 따라 소결속도가 증가하였다. 1600.deg.C에서는 각조성의 시료 모두가 빨리 과소성단계에 도달하였다. 1450.deg.C에서는 MgO 0.85% 첨가했을때 소성시간에 따라 기공량은 감소하는 반면 기공경은 일정하게 증가하였다. 먼저 .alpha.-SiO$_{2}$가 cristobalite로 전이한 후에 MgO와 반응하여 유리상으로 된다.

Tape cast laminar composites with alumina/zircon(reaction-bonded mullite/zirconia) as an inner layer and alumina/zirconia or mullite/zirconia as an outer layer have been fabricated by hot-pressing. The mechanical properties(hardness and Young's modulus) and microstructure of laminar composites were examined using a nanoindentation technique and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), respectively. The indentation load-displacement curve revealed the existence of residual stress in laminar composites.

Shear-induced phase transformation behavior of chemically stabilized $\beta$-cristobalite was studied by the fiber push-out technique. To obtain the critical grain size for phase transformation, the hot-pressed polycrystalline $\beta$-cristobalite, which was used as the interphase between fiber and matrix, was annealed at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 10h. Two types of fibers, mullite and sapphire fiber, were used in this study. Debonding between mullite fiber and cristobalite interphase occurred at a critical load of 230 MPa. Static friction and fiber sliding were continuously followed by debonding. Shear-induced transformation induced cracks in the cristobalite interphase at the debonding stage. In the case of the sapphire fiber, the debonding occurred at a lower load of 180 MPa due to the residual stress in the interface caused by the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the fiber and the cristobalite interphase. The load was insufficient for shear-induced phase transformation.

This research is aimed to synthesize the mullite by adding Al powder of $Al_2O_3$ to kaolin. Specimens fired at 1400, 1450 and 150$0^{\circ}C$ were compared in their X-ray diffraction patterns quantitative analysis of mullite formed and fine microstructures with those containing reactive $Al_2O_3$ activated $Al_2O_3$ as alumina source The experiment of Al oxdiation was also performed by measuring the weight increase of specimens. Two different shapes of mullites acicular and chunky were observed by SEM and the yield of mullites were in-creased by the order of adding activated $Al_2O_3$ reactive $Al_2O_3$ and Al powder to kaolin.
