In this study, presintered low purity alumina ceramics were machined with various tools to clarify the effects of the tool material, cutting condition and tool geometry on machinability. The main conclusions obtained were as follows. (a)The wear of tungsten carbide tool becomes smaller with the increase of the feed and clearance angle, and with the decrease of rake angle, especially exhibiting considerably smaller wear with both the decrease of rake angle and the increase of clearance angle. (b) So far as turning the ceramic presintered at low temperature, the diamond tool shows the best performance with higher feed. (c) The effect on the tool wear of the feed, clearance angle and rake angle becomes smaller in turning the ceramic presintered at higher temperature. (d) The tool wear is not severely affected by the depth of cut.

Effects of particle size of alumina on densification behavior during liquid-phase sintering of alumina-talc system were investigated with emphasis on particle rearrangement process. In the case of using coarse alu-mina powder densiication of specimens was rapidly accelerated after formation of liquid phase due to easy particle rearrangement process with addition of talc and increase of sintering temperature. On the contrary when fine alumina powder was used premature densification of alumina matrix region formed before for-mation of liquid phase rigid skeleton structure and then it seemed to inhibit rearrangement process during crease of sintering temperature. As results the densification of specimens using coarse alumina powder was higher than that of the case of using fine one.

The polymeric alumina sol was prepared by partial hydrolysis of aluminum sec-butoxide reacted with acetylacetone and its characteristics was investigated. The effects of alcohol solvent, acetylacetone, and acid concentration to the sol were investigated. FT-IR and Al27-MASNMR were used to study hydrolysis and polymerization reaction of aluminum complex. Synthesized sol showed the characteristics of polymeric alumina sol. To make a clear polymeric alumina sol, the optimum contents of acetylacetone, H2O and alcohol solvent were 0.4-0.6 mole, 0.25-1.25 mole, 3-5 mole per one mole alkoxide respectively. As a result of the Al27-MASNMR analysis, it was noted that hexa-penta-coordinated Al were main structure.

The extraction of $Al_2O_3$ from the backed mixture of grinded aluminium silicates with $H_2SO_4$ and required heating energy for the baking process has been investigated. The extraction ration of $Al_2O_3$ from baked kaolin and alunite being mixed with 70-80% $H_2SO_4$ at 12$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours was more than 90%, the yield was based on alumina component in the ore by extracted with water. The required heating energy was 1782 cal/300gr (Alunite), that is, when alunite ore treated with equivalent amount of 80% $H_2SO_4$, also left it for 75 minites at 12$0^{\circ}C$, The required heating energy was 22, 553 cal/200gr(Alunite) when the above sample was heated again at 15$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours.

정전안정화 및 입체안정화를 동시에 적용한 복합안정화기구에 의하여 25 부피%의 나노 $Al_2$O$_3$슬러리를 제조하고, 이로부터 얻은 주입성형체, 원심성형체, 진공성형체의 기공구조 분석을 통하여 입자충전거동을 살펴보았다. 나노 알루미나 분말의 습식 성형체의 충전구조는 성형방법에 의하여 가해지는 외력의 영향을 크게 받지만, 반발력을 제공하는 표면장벽층의 상호작용에 의해서도 현저한 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 예비소결실험을 통하여 나노분말에서도 기공크기가 작고, 크기분포가 좁으며, 높은 밀도를 가진 균일성형체의 미세구조가 소결미세구조를 균일하게 하는데 필수적인 조건임을 확인하였다.

Amorphous alumina powder prepared by the fast calcination of aluminum trihydroxide(Al(OH)3 gibbsite) for 0.5 second at 580$^{\circ}C$ was investigated rehydration propeties. Phase composition crystal size and mor-phology surface area pore volume and pore size distribution of pesudo-boehmite and bayerite crystals changed with temperature time water/alumina ratio and particle size when amorphous alumina rehydrated with water. Phase compositions were examined with XRD and DTA and crystal sized morphologies were investigaed with SEM and TEM. Also rehydration properties of amorphous alumina were in-vestigated by measuring the surface area pore volume and pore size distribution.

Four commercial alumina powders having different particle size of $0.5{\mu}m,\;2.8{\mu}m,\;12{\mu}m,\;and\;45{\mu}m$ were presintered at 1120$^{\circ}C$ for 2h and then lanthanum aluminosilicate glass was infiltrated at 1100$^{\circ}C$ for 2h in the interval of 0.1h to investigate the penetration kinetic of the glass into the alumina preforms. The infiltration distance is parabolic with respect to time as described by the Washburn equation and the penetration rate constant, K, increases with raising the alumina particle size. The strength of glass-alumina composites increases as the alumina particle size reaches to 2.8${\mu}m$ due to the increase in packing, however, decreases with further increasing the alumina particle size. The fracture toughness of the composites rises with increasing the alumina particle size due to the crack bowing and the interaction between crack and alumina particles.
