PTFE is generally utilized as the form of composites with adding various fillers. The purpose of this paper lies on clarifying the friction and wear properties of the PTFE coating layer on steel. Especially, the effects of PTFE powder size for coating and surface roughness of the counter material on the properties are investigated. Sliding friction and wear tests are conducted at several sliding speeds by employing two types of PTFE coating layer using different powder sizes. One type of coating layer is composed of uniform fine powder, whereas the other type is made up of mixture powder of different sizes. As results, it is found that PTFE coating layer are effective to improve the wear resistance and to reduce the friction coefficient. It is clear that PTFE coating layers are abrasively removed by asperities of the counter material during sliding contact. However, PTFE coating layer with uniform fine powder shows somewhat better wear resistance than that with mixture powder of different sizes in low sliding speed region. It can be seen that the wear of the coating layer are drastically reduced because wear fragment from counter material are transferred to the coating layer. On the other hand, friction coefficient is shown not to be directly related with PTFE powder size in coating layer.

It is reported that a lot of sludge powder is produced during the process of manufacturing crushed fine aggregate in mines. However, there is a limitation on the its use that most of them are disposed and wasted, which cause environmental pollution. Therefore, in this paper, tests are carried out in order to recycle sludge powder as filler for cement mortar products. Kinds of aggregates and mix proportion of mortar are varied under various contents of sludge powder. According to test results, it is found that cement mortar products using sludge powder as substitution of fine aggregate about 10% have better qualities than those without sludge powder.

The thermal plasma process has excellent characteristics such as high temperature, high chemical activity and rapid quench, and has been applied to various fields. In this review, we briefly describe the characteristics for the process and the system components for producing ultra-fine powders including metal, ceramic, and composites. The key technology for the process will be discussed. We aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of the process for producing high quality ultra-fine powders using thermal plasma.

The BaTiO$_3$ fine powder was prepared by hydrthermal method using titanium tetrahydoxide (Ti(OH)$_4$) and barium dihydroxide (Ba(OH)$_2$.8$H_2O$) as raw materials. The fine powder was obtained at temperatures as low as 160 to 185$^{\circ}C$. The properties of the BaTiO$_3$ powder were studied as a function of various parameters (reaction temperature, reaction time, Ba/Ti=ratio, etc). The average particle size of the BaTiO$_3$ increased with increasing reaction temperature. After hydrothermal treatment at 17$0^{\circ}C$ for 8 h, the average particle size of the BaTiO$_3$ powder was about 30 nm and the particle size distribution was narrow.

High-Speed Centrifugal Compaction Process is one of slip-using compacting method originally developed for processing of oxide ceramics. In this study, we apply the HCP to ultra-fine (0.1 micron) WC powder. Organic liquid of heptane was chosen as dispersing media to avoid possible oxidation of WC. The mixing apparatus was a key to obtain dense compacts. Only the slips mixed by high energy planetary ball mill were packed up to 55% by the HCP, and sintered to almost full density at 1673 K without any sintering aids. This sintered compact marked Vickers hardness of Hv 2750 at maximum.

In order to synthesize fine AlN powder by the direct nitridation of Aluminum metal power added LiF and BaF2 as additives was heated at 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs. in nitrogen gas with flow rate of 20 mι/sec. Additives are promoted the nitridation by prevented the aggromerate of powders when 3% LiF and 2% BaF2 were added to Al metal powder. Rate of nitridation was about 100% and average size of AlN powders were very fine such as 0.3 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Specific surface area of synthesized AlN powder was 3.95$m^2$/g and also O2 and N2 contents were 2.595% and 33.25%, respectively.

The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for applying oyster shells and egg shells as fireproof cladding materials by substituting fine aggregates for oyster shell powder and egg shell powder, and comparing strength and fire resistance performance. The reason for the high strength was thought to be that the oyster shell had higher strength than the egg shell itself, and both ESP and OSP were measured at a backside temperature of less than 500℃, so it was judged that it could be used as a fireproof coating for steel structures.

Development of recycling method at cemented carbide scraps was researched. Some properties of recycled cemented carbides were investigated. Recycled WC fine powder suffered the surface oxidation. Therefore it was necessary to be done by reduction treatment at 1073K-3.6ks under hydrogen atmosphere. When sintering condition at 1673K-3.6ks was treated under vacuum condition, it gained the deflective strength of about 90%, and gained hardness and sintering density about same value compared with commercial alloys. As a result, it was able to recycle only by 7 processes.

This paper is aimed to study the computer simulation of sintering process for ceramics by Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics methods. Plural mechanisms of mass transfer were designed in the MC simulation of sintering process for micron size particles; the transfer of pore lattices for shrinkage and the transfer of solid lattices for grain growth ran in the calculation arrays. The MD simulation was performed in the case of nano size particles of ionic ceramics and showed the characteristic features in sintering process at atomic levels. The MC and MD simulations for sintering process are useful for microstructural design for ceramics.
