Effects of additives on phase development and physico-mechanical properties of mullite-carbon was investigated. Powdered clay, kaolinite and graphite of predetermined compositions were blended with additives using ball mill for 3 hrs at 60 rev/min. Samples were produced by uniaxial compression and sintered between $1400^{\circ}C$ and $1600^{\circ}C$ for one hr. They were characterized for various properties, developed phases and microstructural features. It was observed that the properties and phase developments in the samples were influenced by the additives. 10 wt % SiC served as nucleating point for SiC around $1400^{\circ}C$. 10wt % $TiO_2$ lead to development of 2.5 wt % TiC at $1500^{\circ}C$ which increased to 6.8 wt % at $1600^{\circ}C$. Ifon clay in the sample leads to development of anorthite and microcline in the samples. 10wt % $TiO_2$ is effective as anti-oxidant for graphite up to $1500^{\circ}C$. Base on strength and absorbed energy, sample C (with 10wt % $TiO_2$) sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$ is considered to be optimum.

Alumina fibre has been synthesized successfully by sol-gel technique. Boehmite sol was prepared by hydrolyzing aluminium iso-propoxide and peptizing it with nitric acid. The stable sol thus obtained was used for fibre drawing when their viscosity reached the required value as a result of progress of the hydrolyzation and polycondensation reaction. The fibres dried at 11$0^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours were sintered at 1$600^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. A reasonable sintered density with better microstructure and strength have been attained using 2 wt% of urea, magnesia and silica as sinter additives. Thermal analysis with sintering additives of 2 wt% and phase determination of the heat treated fibres using XRD and FT IR spectra confirms the phase transitions. The observation of surface and cross-section of the fibres were made using SEM. Fibres of uniform circular cross-section is obtained by fixing the shape in a setting solution.

$Si_3N_4$에 2wt% $Al_2O_3$와 6wt% $Y_2O_3$을 첨가한 분말을 가스압 소결 방법으로 시편을 제조하였다. 이때 소결시 시간변화에 따른 공기 중에서 마모 특성을 비교하였다. 소결 시간에 따른 마모 특성의 변화는 기계적 성질, 즉, 파괴인성 등이 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 소결 시간이 길어지면 큰 elongated 입자의 과잉성장에 따라 곡강도 및 파괴인성이 낮아져 이 결과 마모가 증가되었다. 이때 나타난 결과에 의하면 공기 중에서 질화규소의 마모특성에 영향을 주는 인자는 여러 가지 기계적 특성 중에서 파괴인성 및 곡강도가 미치는 영향이 크게 나타났다.

Effect of mixing homogeneity in powder mixtures of Si3N4 and sintering additive (10mol% YAG) prepared by coprecipitation on the mechanical properties of pressureless-sintered body was investigated. Sintering was performed in a graphtie furnace at 1850℃ for 0.5h under 0.15MPa N2 atmosphere using Si3N4 powder bed. Results from the measurement of Young's modulus, Vickers hardness, 4-point-bending strength, and KIC for the coprecipitation-treated (CP) and the mechanically-mixed specimens(MM) showed that a remarkable improvement in flexural strength and Weibull parameter can be achieved for the CPspecimens: (677±68MPa, 12.0) for CP samples and (539±108MPa, 5.5) for MM. Other properties were almost same irrespective of preparation methods.

Keys to the attainment of tailored properties in SiC ceramics are microstructure control and judicious selection of the sintering additives. In this study, three different strategies for controlling microstructure of liquid-phase-sintered SiC ceramics (LPS-SiC) have been suggested: control of the initial $\alpha-SiC$ content in the starting powder, a seeding technique, and a post-sintering heat treatment. The strategies suggested offer substantial flexibility for producing toughened SiC ceramics whereby grain size, grain size distribution, and aspect ratio can be effectively controlled. The present results suggest that the proposed strategies are suitable for the manufacture of toughened SiC ceramics with improved toughness.

A new type of low voltage driven SrTiO3 varistor was investigated. $SrTi3_3$ sintered with CuO-SiO2 additions, the sintering temperature was reduced to 1250-1300C. With the sintering additives, the semiconducting SrTi03 was able to fabricate single time sintering in reducing atmosphere(95% N2 + 5% H2), The non-linear coefficient value was 10.3 and the operating voltage was about 7 V.

[ $B_4C$ ] ceramics were fabricated by spark plasma sintering process and their sintering behavior, microstructure and mechanical properties were evaluated. Relative density of $B_4C$ ceramics could be achieved by spark plasma sintering method reached as high as 99% at lower temperature than conventional sintering method, in addition, without any sintering additives. The mechanical properties of $B_4C$ ceramics could be improved by the heat treatment at $1300^{\circ}C$ during sintering process which can be removed $B_2O_3$ phase from a $B_4C$ powder surface. This improvement results from the formation of a fine and homogeneous microstructure because the grain coarsening was suppressed by the elimination of $B_2O_3$ phase. Particularly, mechanical properties of the specimen experienced the $B_2O_3$ removing process improved over 30% compared with the specimen without that process.

Effect The effect of sintering additives ($SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, Clay) on the mechanical characteristics of sintered zircon was investigated. 1 vol% of additives in zircon powder was was sintered at $120{\sim}1500^{\circ}C$, the mechanical characteristics were measured, and microstructure analysis were was conducted. $Al_2O_3$ and clay additions increase the formation of monoclinic and tetragonal-$ZrO_2$ formation. An addition of SiO2 addition suppressed the formation of tetragonal-$ZrO_2$ formation., The A specimen sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ showed the a density of $4.05\;g/cm^3$ and the a microhardness of 1120 HV, respectively.
