We investigated the viscosity behavior and the carbon yield of coal tar pitch (CTP) treated with iodine. The viscosity of iodine treated pitch showed that the fluidity of iodine treated CTP did not increase within the iodine addition of 1.4%. DTG analysis showed that cross linking was accelerated at the temperature range from $400\;to\;500{^{\circ}C}$ with iodine treatment, which is due to the accelerated dehydrogenative reaction by iodine. The iodine treatment was mainly effective for β-resin content increase of CTP. The carbon yield of CTP increased from 40 to 60% by the iodine non-treated CTP.

Stress distribution and interfacial debonding process at the interface between a rubber mold and a powder compact were analyzed during unloading under cold isostatic pressing. The Cap model proposed by Lee and Kim was used for densification behavior of powder based on the parameters involved in the yield function of general Cap model and volumetric strain evolution. Cohesive elements incorporating a bilinear cohesive zone model were also used to simulate interfacial debonding process. The Cap model and the cohesive zone model were implemented into a finite element program (ABAQUS). Densification behavior of powder was investigated under various interface conditions between a rubber mold and a powder compact during loading. The residual tensile stress at the interface was investigated for rubber molds with various elastic moduli under perfect bonding condition. The variations of the elastic energy density of a rubber mold and the maximum principal stress of a powder compact were calculated for several interfacial strengths at the interface during unloading.

In order to increase the toughness of ZTA(zirconia toughened alumina) ceramics, the present study focused on rearrangement and densification of particles according to the particle size of the parent material. When rough alumina was used for production of ZTA, densification behavior was observed in the specimen sintered at a temperature over $1550^{\circ}C$. However, it was found that the densification behavior was occurred in the specimen sintered at $1450^{\circ}C$ when fine alumina powder was used. High relative density exceeding 98% was obtained when fine alumina powder was mixed with 15 wt% of 3Y-TZP and sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$. Also, a hardness of 1820.2 Hv was obtained when a specimen containing 10 wt% of 3Y-TZP was sintered at $1600^{\circ}C$. In the case of 3Y-TZP containing rough alumina powder that had been sintered the hardness value was around 1720.3 Hv. It was predicted that an improved toughening effect in ZTA could be achieved by using finer alumina powder as the parent material.

Magnesium and magnesium alloys are promising materials for light weight and high strength applications. In order to obtain homogeneous and high quality products in powder compaction and powder forging processes, it is very important to control density and density distributions in powder compacts. In this study, a model for densification of metallic powder is proposed for pure magnesium. The mode] considers the effect of powder characteristics using a pressure-dependent critical density yield criterion. Also with the new model, it was possible to obtain reasonable physical properties of pure magnesium powder using cold iso-state pressing. The proposed densification model was implemented into the finite element method code. The finite element analysis was applied to simulating die compaction of pure magnesium powders in order to investigate the density and effective strain distributions at room temperature.

음극방식법은 피방식체에 외부전원을 인가하거나 보다 활성 금속을 전기적으로 연결하여 피방식체를 일정 전위까지 음극분극 되도록 하여 부식을 억제하는 방법이다. 해수 중 음극방식을 실시할 경우 생성되는 석회질 피막(Calcareous deposit)은 소요전류밀도 감소로 인한 희생양극의 수명연장 및 물리적 방호벽 역할을 한다. 그러나 일반적인 석회질 피막은 세라믹과 같은 화합물로써 밀착력이 매우 약하며, 적지 않은 피막 형성 시간이 소요된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해수 중 음극전류 프로세스를 응용하여 실제 강관의 해중부 및 간만대 영역까지 석회질 피막을 균일-치밀하게 형성시키기 위한 최적의 조건을 찾고자 하였다. 각 조건별로 제작된 석회질 피막은 SEM, EDS 및 XRD를 통해 막의 모폴로지, 조성원소 및 결정 구조를 분석하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 희생양극 종류(Al, Zn) 및 1, 3, $5mA/m^2$의 전류밀도 조건에서 부위-기간별 형성된 석회질 피막의 메커니즘을 해명하였다. 또한 밀착성과 내식특성을 평가하기 위해 테이핑 테스트, 침지-자연전위 거동을 분석 및 평가하였다.

텅스텐브론즈 세라믹스의 결정구조는 산소 팔면체를 뼈대로 각각 다른 형태의 A, C, B 양이온 자리로 이루어져 있다. A, C의 양이온 자리는 알카리 이온 또는 알카리 토금속 이온으로 채워지며, B 자리는 Nb 또는 Ta 이온으로 채워지게 된다. 이 중 A와 C 자리가 채워지는 정도로 unfilled, filled, completely filled 텅스텐브론즈로 나누어지게 된다. completely filled 텅스텐브론즈의 대표적인 물질인 $K_3Li_2Nb_5O_{15}$(KLN)는 전광특성, 비선형 광학특성으로 인하여 다양한 광소자로의 응용과 압전 특성, 초전 특성을 이용한 압전 소자로의 응용이 가능한 재료로 보고되고 있다. 하지만 이러한 꽉 찬 결정구조로 인하여 KLN의 경우 한정된 고용영역을 가지고 있어 물리적 성질의 변화가 제한되어 있는데, 이를 극복하기 위한 여러 가지 시도가 있었다. 이 중 A 자리와 C 자리를 치환하는 연구는 많이 알려져 있으나 치환시 빈 자리를 수반하는 경우가 대부분이다. 반면, B 자리를 치환하는 연구는 Nb를 Ta로 치환하는 경우가 알려져 있는데 이 경우 결정내에 빈자리가 생성되지 않는다. 이들 연구는 모두 단결정의 경우에 국한되어 있으며 단결정 제조시에는 조성을 정확히 조정하기 어렵고, 냉각시 crack이 발생하는 등의 문제를 가지고 있어 그 응용이 제한되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 KLN 다결정 세라믹스에서 Nb를 Ta으로 치환하여 치환에 따른 상변화와 치밀화 거동, 그리고 이에 따른 전기적 특성을 조사하여 이들 간의 상관관계를 조사하였다.

전력선 통신 blocking filter용 자심 재료를 개발하기 위해서 MnO 24 mol%, ZnO 25 mol% and $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ 51 mol% 의 기본조성에 $MoO_{3}$, $SiO_{2}$, CaO를 첨가하여 $1350^{\circ}C$에서 대기압 상수 A를 7.8롤 고정하고 소결하여 미세구조를 제어하였으며 기본 조성에 $MoO_{3}$ 400 ppm, $SiO_{2}$ 100 ppm and CaO 200 ppm을 첨가한 경우 평균 입경 $25{\mu}m$ 의 균일한 결정립으로 구성된 미세구조를 얻었고 기공의 감소에 의한 치밀화로 $4.98g/cm^{2}$의 고밀도화가 이루어 졌다. 또한 소결체의 균일한 미세구조와 고밀도화로 인해서 8221(${25^{\circ}C}$, 1 KHz) 의 가장 높은 투자율 특성을 나타냈다. 시편의 온도가 증가함에 따라 투자율이 증가되어 ${110^{\circ}C}$에서 13904의 거대 투자융이 측정되었고, 코일의 인가주파수가 1 KHz에서 1 MHz까지 증가됨에 따라 최고 ${102^{\circ}C}$까지 시편 온도가 상승하였다. 가장 높은 투자율 특성을 나타낸 ferrite 코어를 사용하여 단상 및 3상용 블로킹 필터의 감쇄율을 측정한 결과 현재 국내의 전력선 통신용 주파수 대역으로 규정되어 있는 10 KHz ~ 450 KHz 대역에서 각각 -46.46 dB와 -73.9 dB의 최고 값을 얻었다.

The correlationship between heat treatment condition and electrical properties of the Mn-Co-Ni oxide NTC thermistor for fuel level sensor was investigated by the X-ray diffractometry, density measurement, and electrical properties measurement such as resistivity, B constant, and thermal dissipation constant. It was shown that the heat treatment of NTC thermistor was responsible for sinterability of Mn-Co-Ni oxide. The highest density of 5.10 g/㎤ was obtained at $1250^{\circ}C$, 2 hours, at which the densification was almost completed. This is also manifested from the microstructural observation. It is found that the electrical resistivity and B constant are increased at the elevated sintering temperatures. The NTC specimens prepared in this study showed the conventional decrease of resistance with the measured temperature and the linear behavior of output voltage with fuel levels. Therefore, the electrical properties of thermistor were closely correlated with sintering condition. and the Mn-Co-Ni oxide thermistor prepared in this study has a great possibility enough to apply for an automobile fuel level sensor.

In this study we investigated stress development and shrinkage of thickness for a single $PbTiO_3$(PT) layer prepared by sol-gel processing. Changes of microhardness for multideposited PT layers with temperatures are also monitored to understand the densification of thin films. Single PT layer shrank rapidly from room temperature to$ 220^{\circ}C$ yielding 83% of total shrinkage observed up to $500^{\circ}C$. A tensile stress of ~75MPa developed in an as-spun layer, and increased steadily beyond $130^{\circ}C$ until it reaches the maximum value of 147MPa at $250^{\circ}C$. The significant decrease of tensile stress in the film beyond $370^{\circ}C$ indicates that thermal expansion mismatch between the film and the substrate dominates the stress behavior in this temperature range. Microhardness of the multideposited coatings also increased rapidly above $300^{\circ}C$ regardless of the pyrolysis temperatures used. Large amount of perovskite phase formed in multideposited coatings after $550^{\circ}C$ may be due partly to enhanced homogeneous nucleation in the thicker coating.

In order to control the microstructures, the sintering behavior and abnormal grain growth with Ba/Ti ratio variation of $BaTiO_3$were investigated. The $BaTiO_3$powders used in this study were prepared by conventional calcination of $BaCO_3$ and $TiO_2$. The onset temperatures of the sintering were lowered and the densification was enhanced with increasing amounts of $TiO_2$ excess. These results are because of decrease of calcined particle sizes. A eutectic melt above temperature of $1320^{\circ}C$ did not assist the densification. Grain growth was strongly inhibited with increasing amounts of $TiO_2$ excess. The inhibition of grain growth caused abnormal grain growth due to inhomogeneous distribution of Ti-rich second phase.
