In the semiconductor and display component industries, the use of ceramic materials, which are high-strength materials, is increasing for ensuring durability and wear resistance. Among them, alumina materials are used increasingly. Alumina materials are extremely difficult to process because of their high strength; as such, research and development in the area of mineral material processing is being promoted actively to improve their processing. In this study, the processability of an electrodeposition tool is investigated using the electrodeposition method to smoothly process alumina materials. Furthermore, processing is conducted under various processing conditions, such as spindle speed, feed speed, and depth of cut. In addition, the processing characteristics of the workpiece are analyzed based on the tooling.

Combat vehicles are frequently maneuvered in battlefields when the lives of combatants are being threatened. These vehicles are important elements that influence the consequences of a battle. Their armor must be lightweight and provide excellent protection to ensure successful operations. Ceramic composite armor has recently been developed by many countries to fulfill these requirements. We reviewed previous research to determine an effective armor design, and then fabricated a composite armor structure using $Al_2O_3$ and glass fiber-reinforced polymer. Specimens were manufactured under controlled conditions using different backing plate thicknesses and bonding methods for the ceramic layer and the backing plate. The penetration of an armor-piercing bullet was evaluated from ballistic protection tests. The bonding method between the ceramic layer and the fiber-reinforced polymer influenced the ballistic protection performance. A bonding layer using rubber provided the best protection.

Plate-shaped inorganic particles are coated onto a stainless steel substrate by the electrophoretic deposition of a precursor slurry which includes the inorganic particles of $Al_2O_3$ and polymer resin in mixed solvents to mimic the abalone shell structure, which is a composite of plate-shaped inorganic particles and organic interlayer binding materials with a layered orientation. The process parameters of the electrophoretic deposition include the voltage, coating time, and conductivity of the substrate. In addition, the suspension parameters are the particle size, concentration, viscosity, conductivity, and stability. We prepared an organic-inorganic composite coating with a high inorganic solid content by arraying the plate-shaped $Al_2O_3$ particles and electrophoretic resin via an electrophoretic deposition method. We analyzed the effect of the slurry composition and the electrophoretic deposition process parameters on the physical, mechanical and thermal properties of the coating layer, i.e., the thickness, density, particle orientation, Young's modulus and thermogravimetric analysis results.

In the ball milling process of ceramic powders, according to economic considerations for industrial applications, it is very important to quickly determine the optimum process condition with the maximum grinding efficiency. However, it is still difficult to determine the optimum condition for a ball mill with respect to the various process parameters, such as the rotational speed and the milling time. Ball milling was carried out at the same starting conditions with given amounts of alumina powders, balls and water, and was conducted slower or faster or a critical rotational speed was just determined by observing the angular position of the slurry in a semi-translucent polyethylene laboratory container. With respect to the different rotational speeds, which were slower or faster than the critical rotational speed, the particle size distribution of the grained powders and the acoustic intensity caused by cascading of the balls led to various behaviors. From the results of the particle size distribution and the acoustic signal analysis in the ball milling, there was one rotational speed that made the finest milled powder with maximum acoustic intensity. As a result, there was a correlation between the ground particle size and the acoustic intensity, which yields the interpretation that it can be possible in-situ to determine the optimum condition of ball milling by acoustic signal without repeated measurement efforts.

인공치아용 3Y-TZP와 (Y,Nb)-TZP/$Al_2O_3$ 복합체를 유사 구강분위기인 인공타액 하에서 500-3000N의 하중 조건으로 $10^6$ 횟수까지 헤르찌안 반복하중 피로특성을 조사하였다. 500N의 하중에서 $5{\times}10^5$까지 반복피로 실험결과, 강도 저하 및 균열 현상은 관찰되지 않았다. 피로특성은 SY-TZP가 (T,Nb)-TZP/$Al_2O_3$ 복합체보다 상전이에 의한 응역회복 때문에 우수하였다. 하중값이 증가함에 따라 링 균열에서 방사상 균열로 전이되었을 때 급격한 강도 저하 현상이 발생하였다. 강도 저하 현상은 유사 구강 분위기하에서 반복 하중 접촉 시 발생한 균열을 통해 침투한 인공타액의 화학적 침식으로 더욱 가속화 되었다.

Influences of ceramic filler types and dose on the sintering, phase evolution, and dielectric properties of ceramic/CaO-$Al_2O_3-SiO_2$ glass composites were investigated. All of the specimens were sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 2 h, which conditions are required by the lowtemperature co-firing ceramic (LTCC) technology. Ceramic fillers of $Al_2O_3,\;SiO_2$, kaolin, and wollastonite were used. The addition of $Al_2O_3$ filler yielded the crystalline phases of alumina and wollastonite, and the densification over 95% of the relative density was achieved up to 50 wt% addition of the filler. For the cases of the fillers of $SiO_2$, kaolin, and wollastonite, crystalline phases of quartz, mullite, and wollastonite formed, while the densification decreased monotonically with the filler addition. In overall, all the investigated fillers with 10 wt% addition resulted in a reasonable sintering (over 95 %) and low dielectric constants (less than 6), demonstrating the feasibility of the investigated composites for application to a LTCC substrate material with a low dielectric constant.

Electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) is a solid waste generated by the steel-scrap recycling process. It mainly consists of zinc oxides (ZnO), alumina ($Al_2O_3$), iron oxides ($Fe_2O_3$), and silica ($SiO_2$). Here we report the preparation and characterization of blue ceramic pigments using EAFD powder as a starting material. $(Zn(EAFD),Co)Al_2O_4$ blue ceramic pigment was prepared by the solid-state reaction method. The color characteristics of the pigment obtained were compared with those of pure $CoAl_2O_4$. The new pigment was characterized using XRD, CIE-$L^*a^*b^*$ color-measurements, SEM, and EDX. The XRD analysis revealed that the $(Zn(EAFD),Co)Al_2O_4$ pigment was composed of mainly the spinel phase of $(Zn,Co)Al_2O_4$. The $Zn(EAFD)_{0.25}Co_{0.75}Al_2O_4$ pigments showed a vivid blue color with a $b^*$ value of -28.64 and a good glaze stability with a transparent glaze.

Monolithic refractory technology has been developed for RH vessels, with the purpose of reducing the total refractory cost. The technology includes the use of an improved monolithic refractory and microwave drying. The improved monolithic refractory was an alumina-spinel composition, of the type used in steel ladles, to which fine alumina was added to increase the density and corrosion resistance. The microwave drying method, previously developed and used to dry the monolithic lining in steel ladles, was modified for use in drying the dense, 500mm thick lining in RH vessels. This work has resulted in significant cost savings.

In this study, unsistered, pre-sintered and sintered low purity alumina ceramics were machined with various tools to clarify the machniability, the optimum tool materials and the optimum tool materials and the optimum cutting conditions. The maon conclusions obtained were as follows. (1) Machined withalloy steel tool, the machinabilty of te pre-sintered ceramics becomes better with the decrease of pre-sintering temperature, but that of unsintered ceramics(white body) was extremely poor. (2) In the case of carbide tool K01, the tool life in machining white body was the longest, and the machinabilty of pre-sintered ceramics becomes poorer with the increase of the pre-sintering temperature. (3) In the case of ceramic tool, the 10000-1100 .deg. C pre-sintered ceramics showed te best machinability within a certain cutting speed range. So far as dry machining, the above combination and conditions showed the highest productivity. (4) When the pre-sintered ceramics were wet machined withsintered diamond tool, the tool life becomes extremelylong, and higher cutting speed can be can be used than in the case offull-sintered ceramics. The productivity of wet cutting is much higher than that ofdry cutting.
