TiAl intermetallic compound was candidated for the application to the high temperature materials such as a gas turbine exhaust valve in the automobile. However, this material dose not have ductility allowing to machinability to product. To improve the ductility, many researches conduct alloy design and heat treatment methods. We observed that the microstructure of TiAl varied with Ni, Mn elements as well as a heat treatment condition. In the case of Ni element addition, the TiAlNi intermetallic compound was precipitated at the grain boundary. When the heat treatment temperature increased from $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1300^{\circ}C$, the TiAlNi intermetallic compound was uniformly dispersed on the matrix. In the case of Mn element addition, the mixed duplex structure of ${\gamma}$-TiAl and lamellar(TiAl/$Ti_3Al$) was obtained with $1250^{\circ}C$ and $1300^{\circ}C$ heat treatment for 1 hour. When the heat treatment temperature increased from $1250^{\circ}C$ to $1300^{\circ}C$, the lamellar domain of the duplex structure was transformed near-lamellar structure.

The effective fracture toughness testing of materials intended for application in Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) devices is required in order to improve understanding of how micro sized material used in device may be expected to perform upon the micro scale. ${\gamma}$-TiAl based materials are being considered for application in MEMS devices at elevated temperatures. Especially, in Alloy 4, both ${\alpha}_2$ and ${\gamma}$ lamellae were altered markedly in 3,000 h, $700^{\circ}C$ exposure. Parallel decomposition of coarse ${\alpha}_2$ into bunches of very fine (${\alpha}_2+{\gamma}$) lamellae. Parallel decomposition of coarse ${\alpha}_2$ into bunches of very fine (${\alpha}_2+{\gamma}$) lamellae. The materials were examined 2 types Alloy 4 on heat exposed specimen($700^{\circ}C$, 3,000 h) and no heat exposed one. Micro sized cantilever beams were prepared mechanical polishing on both side at $25{\sim}30{\mu}m$ and electro final stage polishing to observe lamellar orientation of same colony with EBSD (Electron Backscatter Diffraction Pattern). Through lamellar orientation as inter-lamellae or trans-lamellae, Cantilever beam was fabricated with Focused Ion Beam(FIB). The directional behavior of the lamellar structure was important property in single material, because of the effects of the different processing method and variations in properties according to lamellar orientation. In MEMS application, it is first necessary to have a reliable understanding of the manufacturing methods to be used to produce micro structure.

The materials composed of the 3d series transition metals are introduced into the hydrocarbon steam-reforming reaction in order to enhance the $H_2$ production and abruptly depress the catalytic deactivation resulting from the strong sintering between the Ni component and the ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ support. The conventional impregnation method is used to synthesize the Ni/3d series metal/${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ materials through the sequentially loading Ni source and the 3d series metal (Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Cu, and Zn) sources onto the ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ support. The Mnloaded material exhibits a significantly higher reforming reactivity than the conventional Ni/${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ and the other Ni/3d series metal/${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ materials. Particularly the addition of Mn selectively improves the $H_2$ product selectivity by eliminating the formation of $CH_4$ and CO. The $H_2$ production is maximized at a value of 95% over Ni(0.3)/Mn(0.3)/${\gamma}-Al_2O_4$(1.0) with a butane conversion of 100% above $750^{\circ}C$ for up to 55 h.

1∼5wt%의 구리가 얹혀진 ${\gamma}$-알루미나 또는 티타니아에서 금속-지지체 상호작용을 승온환원과 상자성 공명으로 연구하였다. $500^{\circ}C에서 시료를 산소로 처리했을 때 티타니아계에서는 구리 함량이 증가함에 따라 고온쪽으로 승온환원 피이크가 증가했으나 알루미나 계에서는 저온쪽의 승온 환원 피이크가 커졌다. $300^{\circ}C 처리 경우에는 알루미나계에서는 $300^{\circ}C에서 티타니아계는 120 과 $300^{\circ}C에서 각각 환원피이크를 보여주었다. ${\gamma}$-알루미나에서는 $Cu^{2+}$의 전형적인 상자성 신호가 나타났으나 티타니아에서는 넓고 작은 신호만 관찰되었다. 이들 결과들로부터 금속-지지체 상호작용은 실리카 < 티타니아 < ${\gamma}$-알루미나의 순으로 커지며 산화구리는 지지체에 따라 서로 다른 담지특성을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

A transmission electron microscope investigation has been performed on the morphology of dislocations in deformed ${\gamma}^{\prime}-Ni_3(Al,Ti)$ alloys containing fine dispersion of disordered ${\gamma}$ particles. Superlattice dislocations dissociate into fourfold Shockley partial dislocations in a uniform supersaturated solid solution of the ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ phase. Dislocations are attracted into the disordered ${\gamma}$ phase and dissociate further in the particles. At any stage of aging, dislocations cut through the particles and the Orowan bypassing process does not occur even in the over-aged stage of this alloy system. The work necessary to pull the dislocation away from the disordered particles into the ordered matrix should mainly contribute to increase the strength of the ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ phase containing fine dispersion of the disordered ${\gamma}$ phase.

The changes of lamellar(${\alpha}_2+{\gamma}$) structure of TiAl intermetallic compound which is a high potential, high temperature aerospace material was investigated by heat treatment. The lamellar structure was short and made subgrain in prior a grains after homogenizing at 1523 K. It became longer and finer, and the subgrain went out during subsequent isothermal heatteating at 1273 K. The yield, fracture strength and strain to fracture if the heat treated specimens was increased and the hardness of them was decreased a little in the finer lamellar structure, because fine lamellar interface, sugrain boundary and grain boundary may block initiation and propagation of crack.

${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, $TiO_2$와 $SiO_2$에 코발트를 함침시켜 촉매를 제조하고, 고정층 미분반응기에서 CO에 의한 $SO_2$환원반응 특성을 조사하였다. 이때 온도는 $350{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ 영역에서, $SO_2$농도를 1000~10000 ppm, $CO/SO_2$몰비를 1.0~3.0, 공간속도를 $5000{\sim}15000h^{-1}$의 영역에서 사용하였으며 대기압하에서 실행하였다. ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$와 $TiO_2$는 코발트 담체로 우수한 특성을 보였으며, 5 wt % 코발트를 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$에 함침시켜 얻은 촉매로 $400^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 90% 이상의 높은 $SO_2$전환율과 6% 이하의 낮은 COS수율을 얻을 수 있었다. $CO/SO_2$의 최적몰비는 양론비인 2.0으로 나타났으며, 몰비가 3.0으로 증가하면 $SO_2$전환율은 증가하였으나 대부분의 반응생성물이 COS로 나타났다. 실험영역의 $SO_2$농도와 공간속도의 변화는 $SO_2$ 전환율과 반응선택성에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았다. 코발트는 활성화된 이후에 $CoS_2$ 상태로 존재하였으며 반응후에도 상변화는 관찰되지 않았다.

Properties of Ni-base superalloys of Nimonic 80A alloy system were investigated by the observation of microstructures, precipitates ana hardness as a function of the chemical compositions ana the paths of heat treatment. The higher hardness values showed, the higher Ti/Al ratio among high compositions of Cr and Co element. The lower (Ti+Al) and Fe contents decreased in the same Ti/Al ratio, the higher hardness values showed. This results are considered that coherent deformation was increased with increasing Ti/Al ratio. Hardness showed higher value when Cr contents was $18 wt\%$ less than $21wt\%Cr$. In $3.15 wt\%$Co alloy, $\gamma'$ phase was very fine as around 50nm and, its volume fraction and hardness showed the highest value by 2step-aging treatment.

The segregation of S in electrotransport-purified polycrystaline $\alpha$-Ti and Ti-aluminide alloys has been studied by Auger electron spectroscopy(AES), Ion scattering spectroscopy(ISS) and Secondary ion mass spectrometry(SIMS) in the temperature range extending from 20 to $1000^{\circ}C$. The chemisorbed oxygen and carbon on Ti were observed to disappear at T>$400^{\circ}C$ after which the S signal increased to levels approaching 0.5 monolayer. At lower temperatures the presence of the surface oxygen and carbon appeared to inhibit the segregation, presumably because there were no available surfaces sites for the S emerging from the bulk. The activation energy for the S segregation in pure polycrystaline Ti was determined to be 16.7 kcal/mol, which, when compared to S segretation from single-crystal Ti, is quite small and suggests grain boundary or defect diffusion segregation kinetics. In the Ti-aluminide alloys, the presence of Al appeared to enhance the retention of surface oxygen which, in turn, substantially reduced the S segretation. The $\gamma$ alloy, with its high Al content, exhibited the greatest retention of surface oxygen and the smallest quantity of the S segregation(T$\simeq1000^{\circ}C$).

Five cast gamma titanium aluminides, Ti-45~48%Al-2%Nb-2%Cr (nominal composition in at. %), were laser welded and their weld cracking susceptibilities were evaluated. Laser power, traversing rate and preheat temperature were systematically varied to generate a series of welds exhibiting a wide range of cooling rate ($100^{\circ}C/s-10,000^{\circ}C/s$). As Al content increased and the weld cooling rate decreased, solidification cracking susceptibility increased while solid-state cracking susceptibility decreased. Through laser beam energy input control and preheat, it was determined possible to produce high quality laser welds.
