Several $Al_2O_3$-based polycrystalline which had different dopant ratio in the range of 0.5mol% were prepared by doping pure $Cr_2O_3$ $HfO_2$. Single crystalline which had same composition with above polycrystalline were made by means of floating zone method. This study examined the role of each dopant for enhancing the mechanical properties of $Al_2O_3$-based Ceramics. Optical micrographs $({ imes}200)$ of $Al_2O_3-Cr_2O_3$ single crystal showing not only radial crack (rc) on the specimen surface but median crack(mc) and lateral crack(lc) under surface at the edge of indentation mark. Fracture toughness of Al2O3-based Ceramics was increased with $ZrO_2$ content. Alloying effect of $Cr_2O_3$ contributed to the hardness of $Al_2O_3$ based ceramics.

The microstructural changes of $NiCrAlY/ZrO_2$-$Y_2$$O_3$ composite coatings that were manufactured by air-plasma-spraying were investigated using XRD and SEM/EDS. The as-sprayed microstructure consisted of (Ni,Cr)-rich regions, ($ZrO_2$-$Y_2$$O_3$)-rich regions, and $Al_2$$O_3$-rich layers that were formed during spraying owing to the oxidation of Al in NiCrAlY. During oxidation between 900 and $1100^{\circ}C$ in air, Cr in the (Ni,Cr)-rich regions diffused toward the $Al_2$$O_3$-rich layers, and oxidized to be dissolved in $A1_2$$O_3$-rich layers. The oxidation of Ni in the (Ni,Cr)-rich regions was less distinct, except at the outer surface of the coating.

A Ti47Al1.7W-3.7Zr alloy was oxidized between $900^{\circ}C$ and $1050^{\circ}C$, and the oxide scales formed were studied. The oxide scales consisted primarily of an outer$TiO_2$ layer, an intermediate $Al_2$$O_3$-rich layer, and an inner mixed ($TiO _2$ + $Al_2$$O_3$) layer. Besides $TiO_2$ and $Al_2$$O_3$, oxidation led to the formation of some $Ti_2$AlN and TiN. Both W and Zr were preferentially segregated below the intermediate $Al_2$$O_3$-rich layer. Tungsten in the oxide scale was present as $WO_3$ and ${Ti}_{x}$$W_{1-x}$, whereas zirconium as monoclic-$ZrO_2$ and tetragonal-$ZrO_2$.

Porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ composites were fabricated by pressureless sintering, using different volume percentages (40% - 60%) of poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) powders as a pore-forming agent. The pore-forming agent was successfully removed, and the pore size and shape were well-controlled during the burn-out and sintering processes. The average pore size in the porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ bodies was about $200\;{\mu}m$ in diameter. The values of relative density, bending strength, hardness, and elastic modulus decreased as the PMMA content increased; i.e., in the porous body (sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$) using 55 vol % PMMA, their values were about 50.8%, 29.8 MPa, 266.4 Hv, and 6.4 GPa, respectively. To make the $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$/polymer hybrid composites, a bioactive polymer, such as PMMA, was infiltrated into the porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ composites. After infiltration, most of the pores in the porous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$ composites, which were made using 60 vol % PMMA additions, were infiltrated with PMMA, and their values of relative density, bending strength, hardness, and elastic modulus remarkably increased.

정방정형 지르코니아를 상온에서 안정화시키는 이트리아와, 지르코니아의 저온 열화을 억제하고 파괴강도의 증가에 기여하는 알루미나를 YAG(5Al$_2$O$_3$.3Y$_2$O$_3$) 졸의 형태로 m-ZrO$_2$와 알루미나의 혼합 slurry에 첨가하여, m-ZrO$_2$를 yttria 안정화 지르코니아로의 in situ 변환과 동시에 알루미나의 분산도를 향상시키고자 하였다. 20wt% 알루미나-지르코니아(YSZ)의 복합체 (20ATZ)를 1450$^{\circ}$~150$0^{\circ}C$에서 상압소결하여 0.5$mu extrm{m}$ 이하의 균일한 미세구조로 얻었다. 이 복합체는 정방정형 지르코니아와 $\alpha$-알루미나 상으로만 이루어지었고, 소결밀도 >99% TD이었다. 제조된 복합체의 파괴강도는 810 MPa로, 고상법으로 $Al_2$O$_3$와 3Y-ZrO$_2$분말로부터 제조된 시편의 682 MPa 보다 약 20% 향상되었고, 파괴인성은 5.52 MPa.m$^{1}$2/로 고상법으로 제조된 시편의 5.39 MPa.m$^{1}$2/과 비슷하였다.

Characteristics of Al2O3-ZrO2 powders prepared by sol-gel process and their sintering behavior were investigated as a function of calcination temperature. The sol-gel processed powders were calcined at 800, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200$^{\circ}C$, and analyzed by X-ray diffraction technique. Pore size and distribution of green compact of the calcined powders were measured by mercury porosimeter. It is suggested that the optimal temperature of calcination for the sintering of Al2O3-ZrO2 powder prepared by sol-gel process is 1100$^{\circ}C$. In the Al2O3-17vol.% ZrO2 sintered specimen, which was sintered at 1600$^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs in air, 69vol.% tetragonal phse existed.

산업 자동화기술이 발달함에 따라 다양한 용도의 부품개발과 산업 장비들의 부품에 대한 수요가 날로 증가하게 되어 산업이 발달하게 된 반면, 장비의 성능을 저하시키는 마모에 대한 문제점이 제기되고 있다. 이에 대한 해결책으로 내열성 및 내마모성을 가지는 박막코팅기술이 요구되고 있다. 특히, Alumina (Al2O3)와 Zirconia (ZrO2)는 내식성과 내열성, 내마모성의 우수한 특성을 지닌 재료이며, 이들을 기어, 베어링, 실린더 등 각종 기계의 부품에 코팅하여 내마모성을 가지게 한다. 본 실험에서는 Al2O3 : ZrO2 = 50 : 50 wt% 의 비율로 혼합한 target이 사용되었다. 그리고 Al2O3-ZrO2 target을 사용하여 RF-magnetron sputtering 방법으로 박막을 제작 하였다. sputter시에 power를 20 W에서 80 W까지 변화를 주었다. AFM, SEM, XRD를 통하여 알루미늄 기판위에 증착된 Al2O3-ZrO2 박막의 구조적 특성을 알아보았으며, 내마모성 테스트 장비를 통하여 박막의 마찰마모 특성에 대하여 조사하였다.

Fibrous $Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)/t-ZrO_2$ composites having core/shell structure were fabricated by multi-extrusion process. The effect o volume fraction between core ($Al_2O_3-(m-ZrO_2)$) and shell ($t-ZrO_2$ was investigated to understand the relationship between microstructure and material properites, in which the volume fractions of core and shell were varied as 40:60, 50:50 and 60:40. The material properties o hardness and bending strength were increased as the volume fraction of core was increased, and their maximum values were about 1320 Hv and 750MPa, respectively. However, as the volume fraction of core increased, the values of relative density and fracture toughness were decreased from 97.1 to $96.5\%$ and from $6.5MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ to $5.7MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, respectively.
