  • To improve the low resistance of ceramics to tensile stress, many techniques, for introducing and retaining surface compressive stress have been suggested. In present work, in order to introduce the compressive stress on the surface of TZP ceramics TZP-Al2O3 composites were made with infiltration technique. Highly porous 3Y-TZP pre-sintered specimens were submerged in AlOOH(boehmite) sol and the sol penetrated into them through open pore channels with moderate depth after that specimens were sintered. It was known that controlling the number of infiltration time can vary the amount of Al2O3 phase and the fraction of alumina at surface reached up to 18%. The depth of composite surface layer were 100~200 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and these were acceptable in surface strengthening which were proved by Vickers hardness indentation method.

  • Changes in phase and microstructure were investigated in the SiC-AlN ceramics prepared by pressureless sintering using yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) as a sintering aid at 200$0^{\circ}C$ and 210$0^{\circ}C$. The SiC/AlN ratio made a remarkable difference in densification, phase relations and the morphology of grains. In the AlN-rich composition, major phase was 2H and microstructure was composed of the densified equiaxed grains irrespective of the sintering temperatures. While those sintered at 200$0^{\circ}C$ were porous with major phase being 3C, the rod-like and the equiaxed grains were coexisted when sintered at 210$0^{\circ}C$ in the SiC-rich composition.

  • A porous ceramic which has fine porosity and small specific gravity is made with Cenosphere and Ball Clay under condition of $1,250^{\circ}C$ in calcination temperature and 30 minutes of calcination time. The average size of porous ceramic was about $2.5{\times}10^{-5}$ m and pores are well developed. The void-fraction of porous ceramic was 67.1% under the input of Cenosphere and Ball clay with the weight ratio of 100 to 5. However, as weight ratio of Ball Clay increased to 20, 40, 100, the void fraction decreased to 58.4, 56.7, 47% respectively. When the weight ratio of Cenosphere and Ball Clay was 100 to 100, the apparent density of porous ceramic was $1.04g/cm^3$. which is twice the density when the weight ratio of Ball Clay was 5. On the other hand, absorption rate decreased by at least 100%. In condition of weight ratio of Cenosphere and Ball Clay was 100 to 100, compressive strength of porous ceramic was 30 (MPa), improve by about 76% or more when the weight ratio of Ball Clay was 5.
