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.

This paper was the research of high voltage suspension insulator (400 [kN]) including pottery stone, feldspar, clay and alumina of 17 [wt%]. The slurry was fabricated after ball milling mixed raw materials. Green compacts were made by the extrusion of jiggering method and were sintered at 1300[$^{\circ}C$] for 50 [min.] in the tunnel kiln. The sintered density was reached to 97% of theoretical density, and the bending strength was 1658 [k $g_{f}$/$\textrm{cm}^2$] and hardness and fracture toughness which was measured by ICL( indentation crack length ) method were 1658 (kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$) and 27.5 [Gpa], respectively. In measurement of tana and insulation break voltage of 400 (kN) porcelain, tan$\delta$ took some numerical value between 17${\times}$10$_{-3}$ and 61${\times}$10$_{-3}$ and insulation break voltage value was 19.9$\pm$1.4 [㎸/mm]. The test was performed to research whether the shape of pin affect a overvoltage break load or not As a consequence, when a pin was designed a pin diameter 51 [mm] with the bottom form of two-step constructed with straight in the suspension insulator, Insulator showed overvoltage break load 52 [ton] of the highest value and reflected a fine characteristic in aged deterioration test which is one of the accelerated aging test. Also it could be confirmed a fine characteristic through performing the test that electrical property of insulator was established correctly in accordance with IEC 60383-1 standards.s.

용융탄산염 연료전지(Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell) 메트릭스의 성형성 및 강도 증진을 위한 알루미나/${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 화이버 강화 매트릭스에 대하여 연구하였다. ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 입자에 10~30wt%의 화이버를 첨가한 슬러리를 테이프캐스팅 한 후 $650^{\circ}C$까지 열처리하여 두께가 500~600$\mu\textrm{m}$인 MCFC 매트릭스를 제조하였다. 화이버의 첨가량이 증가할수록 매트릭스의 기공율은 감소하였으나 입자크기가 대략 50$\mu\textrm{m}$인 ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 분체의 첨가비를 50wt%까지 증가시킴으로써 MCFC 매트릭스에 적합한 기공율(50~60%)을 얻을 수 있었다. 알루미나 화이버의 첨가량이 20wt% 이고 길이가 250$\mu\textrm{m}$이하인 화이버를 사용하였을 때 매트릭스내의 분산성 및 강도 증진 효과가 가장 우수하였다. 반면에 본 연구에서 제조한 ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 화이버를 이용한 강화 매트릭스의 강도(156 gf/$\textrm{mm}^2$)는 알루미나 화이버 강화 매트릭스에 비해 20~40% 정도 증진되었다. 또한 알루미나 화이버 강화 매트릭스는 용융탄산염에 의하여 부식되지만 ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 화이버 강화 매트릭스는 전혀 부식되지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

Carbon nanotube (CNT) and alumina ($Al_2O_3$) are synthesized into hybrid composites, and an advanced electrical discharge machining (EDM) system is developed for the machining of hard and conductive materials. CNT nanoparticles are mixed with $Al_2O_3$ powder and the $Al_2O_3$/CNT slurry is sintered by spark plasma. The hardness and the electrical conductivity of the $Al_2O_3$/CNT hybrid composite were investigated. The electrical discharge is controlled by a capacitive ballast circuit. The capacitive ballast circuit is applied to the tungsten carbide and the $Al_2O_3$/CNT hybrid composite. The voltage-current waveforms and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images were measured to analyze the characteristics of the boring process. The developed EDM process can manufacture the ceramic based hybrid composites, thereby expecting the variety of applications.

In this paper, so as to investigate the influence of oxidizer for each metal film using the alumina-based slurry, we have peformed the W/Ti metal-CMP process by adding $H_2O_2$ as a representative oxidizer from 1 wt% to 9 wt%, respectively. As an experimental result, for the case of 5 wt% oxidizer added, the removal rates were improved and polishing selectivity of 1.4 : 1 was obtained. Also, we compared the effects of oxidizer or W-CMP process with three different kind of oxidizers with 5 wt% hydrogen peroxide such as $Fe(NO_3)_3$, $H_2O_2$, and $KIO_3$. Finally, atomic force microscope (AFM) measurements were carried out for the analysis of surface morphology and root mean square (RMS) roughness after CMP Process.

Porous hydroxyapatite(HA) and HA-coated porous $Al_2O_3$ possessing pore characteristics required for bone substitutes were prepared by a slurry foaming method combined with gelcasting. The HA coating was deposited by heating porous $Al_2O_3$ substrates in an aqueous solution containing $Ca^{2+}$ and ${PO_4}^{3-}$ ions at $65{\sim}95^{\circ}C$ under ambient pressure. The pore characteristic, microstructure, and compressive strength were investigated and compared for the two kinds of samples. The porosity of the samples was about 81% and 80% for HA and $Al_2O_3$, respectively with a highly interconnected network of spherical pores with size ranging from 50 to $250{\mu}m$. The porous $Al_2O_3$ sample showed much higher compressive strength(25 MPa) than the porous HA sample(10 MPa). Fairly dense and uniform HA coating(about $2{\mu}m$ thick) was deposited on the porous $Al_2O_3$ sample. Since the compressive strength of cancellous bone is $2{\sim}12$ MPa, both the porous HA and HA-coated porous $Al_2O_3$ samples could be successfully utilized as scaffolds for bone repair. Especially the latter is expected suitable for load bearing bone substitutes due to its excellent strength.

Molybdenum (Mo), an electrode material of alkali metal thermal-to-electric converters (AMTEC), facilitates grain growth behavior and forms Mo-Na-O compounds at high operating temperatures, resulting in reduced performance and shortened lifetime of the cell. Mo/TiN composite materials have been developed to provide a solution for such issues. Mo is a metal that possesses excellent electrical properties, and TiN is a ceramic compound with high-temperature durability and catalytic activity. In this study, a dip-coating process with an organic solvent-based slurry was used as an optimal coating method to achieve homogeneity and stability of the electrodes. Cell performance was evaluated under various conditions such as the number of coatings, ranging from 1 to 3 times, and heat treatment temperatures of $800-1100^{\circ}C$. The results confirmed that the cell yielded a maximum power of 9.99 W for the sample coated 3 times and heat-treated at $900^{\circ}C$.

Platinum is a candidate of top and bottom electrode in ferroelectric random access memory and dynamic random access memory. High dielectric materials and ferroelectric materials were generally patterned by plasma etching, however, the low etch rate and low etching profile were repoted. We proposed the damascene process of high dielectric materials and ferroelectric materials for patterning process through the chemical mechanical polishing process. At this time, platinum as a top electrode was used for the stopper for the end-point detection as Igarashi model. Therefore, the control of removal rate in platinum chemical mechanical polishing process was required. In this study, an addition of $H_{2}O_{2}$ oxidizer to alumina slurry could control the removal rate of platinum. The removal rate of platinum rapidly increased with an addition of 10wt% $H_{2}O_{2}$ oxidizer from 24.81nm/min to 113.59nm/min. Within-wafer non-uniformity of platinum after chemical mechanical polishing process was 9.93% with an addition of 5wt% $H_{2}O_{2}$ oxidizer.

본 연구에서는 Cu 슬러리에 부식방지제인 BTA를 첨가하여 슬러리내의 과수의 농도, pH 의 변화, 연마입자의 종류에 따라 연마거동에 미치는 영향과 각 chemical 변화에 따른 Cu surface의 변화를 살펴보았다. BTA (Benzotriazole, $C_6H_4C_3H$)를 첨가함으로써 본 연구에서 시행된 pH 와 과수의 변화에 상관없이 Cu-BTA film을 형성하여 Cu의 dissolution을 최대한 억제하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또 그로인해 BTA를 첨가하지 않았을 때보다 얇은 passivation layer를 형성함을 알 수 있었고 contact angle도 더 높았다. 연마율의 경우에도 BTA가 첨가됨으로써 감소됨을 확인할 수 있었고 연마입자로 alumina particle을 사용한 경우에는 pH6, 과수 10vol%이상에서는 오히려 연마율이 증가하였다. fumed silica의 경우에는 hardness가 작아 mechanical적인 제거력이 낮아 BTA가 첨가되어도 연마율에는 큰 영향이 없었다.
