In the fabrication of alumina-based multilayer ceramics sintering shrinkages with lamination conditions such as lamination pressure temperature and laminating with and without press die were compared. The sintering shrinkage was affected substantially by lamination pressure and temperature and in the case of laminatino without press die the lower laminated density and a large difference in shrinkage with direction were observed. These results can be explained by introducing a new factor which is the ratio of the changes of areas before and after lamination.

Sintering and dielectric characteristics of substrates were estimated by mixing rate of alumina and potashborosilicate glass(PBSG) powders. PBSG powders were used 7761(corning code)and alumina powders were used in extra pure rate(99.9%) and had 0.1 ${\mu}$m mean size. After ball milling with organic additives green sheets which were casted by doctor blade machine were sintered at 800$^{\circ}C$ for 1∼3hrs. Microstructure, linear shrinkage and dielectric constant of substrates were surveyed in order to fabricate low-dielectric and low tem-perature sintering substrate.

본 연구에서는 kaolin을 이용하여 반기상법, gel coating법, seed 첨가법으로 mullite를 합성하였으며 mullite 15 wt%를 고 알루미나질 내화물 원료에 첨가하여 내화물 시편을 제조하였다. 제조된 시편의 물성을 분석한 결과 seed 첨가법으로 제조된 mullite를 첨가한 시편의 물성이 338.60 MPa의 꺾임강도와 9,427 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 압축강도값을 나타내었다. 제조된 시편의 내화도 및 잔존선팽창수축률을 측정한 결과 나머지 두가지 방법으로 합성한 mullite나 일반적인 고 알루미나질 내화물에 비하여 좋은 특성을 나타내었다.

The powder characteristics of seeded alumina prepared from alkoxide by sol-gel method were studied. When ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 seeded powders used, these ${\alpha}$ phase transformation temperatures decreased than those of unseeded powders by 110$^{\circ}C$ and fine powders under 0.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ could be obtained. When Fe-nitrate added powders used, fast transformation rate resulted from ionic effects of Fe3+, but hard aggregated morphology exhibited. When ${\alpha}$-Al2O3 and Fe nitrate simultaneously added, these powders represented lower transformation temperature but resulted in microstructure with aggregated particles.

As a part of study to establish the industrial process for manufacturing high purity alumina powder which is largely used as fine ceramics, an adsorption method using a silica-containing material which can absorb to eliminate a major impurity, Na in aluminum hydroxide as a raw material has been studied. It is confirmed that the primary property of powder such as the particle size of raw material and that of silica-containing material plays a great important role in the purification process.

Tow types of supports were made using $\alpha$-Al2O3 powder and optimum conditions to prepare for supports were provided. Sol solution for coating was synthesized by sol-gel method with aluminum isopropoxide. Supports were coated and heat-treatemented, where the thickness of coating layer was controlled by dipping time. Flux and permeability of alumina membrane were measured by liquid and gas filtration apparatus and these were compared with the provided model. It was confirmed that the coating was done very well without micro~crack and defect.

Alumina composite was fabricated by introducing tetragonal ZrO2 in alumina composite of $\alpha$-alumina reinforced with in-situ formed La-$\beta$-aluminate (LaAl11O18). The powder mixture of composition (100-x)[88 Al2O3+(La2O3+11 Al2O3)]+x vol% ZrO2 was prepared with x from 0 to 40. Dense composites fabricated by hot-pressing exhibited bending strength up to 1200 MPa. The gain growth inhibiting effect of ZrO2 grains and La-$\beta$-aluminate platelets, and possibly the stress-induced phase transformation of ZrO2 have resulted in the high bending strength. The fracture toughness of the composite also increased up to 8.5 MPa.m1/2. The enhancement in toughness can be explained by transformation and microcrack toughening of ZrO2 and by crack deflection and bridging of La-$\beta$-aluminate platelets and ZrO2.

Alumina is one of the most important ceramic materials because of its useful physical and chemical properties. Recently, high-purity alumina has been used in various industrial fields. This leads to increasing demand for reliable elemental analysis of impurities in alumina samples. However, the chemical inertness of alumina makes the sample preparation for conventional elemental analysis a tremendously difficult task. Herein, we demonstrated the feasibility of laser ablation for effective sampling of alumina powder. Laser ablation performs sampling rapidly without any chemical reagents and also allows simultaneous optical emission spectroscopy and mass spectrometry analyses. For six alumina samples including certified reference materials and commercial products, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) and laser-ablation inductively-coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) analyses were performed simultaneously based on a common laser ablation sampling. LIBS was found to be useful to quantify alkali and alkaline earth metals with limits-of-detection (LODs) around 1 ppm. LA-ICP-MS could quantify transition metals such as Ti, Cu, Zn, and Zr with LODs in the range from a few tens to hundreds ppb.

The effect of kind of starting materials used for a sintering additive. magnesium acetate and magnesium nitrate, on the mechanical properties of alumina sintered body made by adding 1000 ppm of the additives, respectively, was investigated. As for the alumina sintered bodies prepared from magnesium acetate and magnesium nitrate, we observed that their relative densities decreased rapidly with increasing sintering temperature 1$600^{\circ}C$. Outer layer of alumina bodies had a duplex microstructure consisting of pores and grain growth. Also the inner layer had a second phase between alumina grain boundaries. By EPMA analysis, we confirmed that the grain boundary phase was a compound containing Mg.
