Alumina matrix composites reinforced with up to 20vol% of aligned SiC whiskers were fabricated by tape casting and hot pressing. Alumina composited with randomly distribution SiC whiskers were also fabricated in order to investigate the effect of whisker alignment on properties of the composites. XRD and optical microscopy were used to examine the whisker orientation. The fracture toughness increased with increasing whisker content, and it was higher in the direction normal to the tape casting direction.

The heat transfer and thermal stress analysis was performed on the ceramic core of the matrix-type recuperator. The efficiency was calculated as 34% to 65%. Triple-pass arrangement provided higher preheated air temperatures, lower thermal stresses and the increase of pressure drops. Higher temperature gradients and maximum peak stresses appeared on the corners of the ceramic core. The effect of boundary conditions was significant and the use of spring-load sealing mechanism could release thermal stresses.

The Si5AION7 specimens containing 20% YAG composition have been sintered and then heat treated to induce the crystallization of the matrix glassy phase. Crystallization of YAG phase during the heat treatment was detected from the X-ray diffraction patterns and the consequent changes in room temperature toughness as well as in microstructures were investigated. Almost all the glassy boundary phase were found to crystallize even after 5 minutes of heat treatment and the KC at room temperature decreased accordingly. The results show that the matrix crystallization can be induced by slow cooling from the sintering temperature.

$ZrB_2$, ZrC, $HfB_2$, HfC 및 TaC 등의 초고온 세라믹스들은 극초음속 체계의 노즈콘, 로켓 노즐 및 리딩 엣지 등에 적용하기 위하여 최근 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 그 실제 적용은 다양한 원인 때문에 제약받고 있는데 취성 특성에 의한 낮은 열충격 저항 특성이 그 원인 중 하나이다. 그러한 문제는 세라믹 섬유강화 복합재료를 제조함으로써 개선될 수 있다. 본 리뷰에서는 초고온 세라믹스의 개념과 초고온 세라믹스 섬유강화 복합재료(UHTC-CMC)의 제조 공정 및 평가에 대하여 간단히 정리하였다. 또한 UHTC-CMC의 제조를 위한 세계적인 연구를 요약하였으며 한국에서 수행중인 초고온 세라믹스 연구에 대해 간단히 소개하였다.

Sheets of SiC-SiC whisker maxed matrix were prepared from the mixed slurry of SiC whisker and SiC matrix by the rolling method. With the increase of SiC whisker, the pore size, the porosity and the phosphoric acid absorbency of the matrix were increased, while the bubble pressure was decreased. The activation energy for the transfer of H+ ion was decreased with the increase of mixing ratio of SiC whisker to the SiC matrix from the measurement of hydrogen ion conductivity. The activation energy was evaluated as 0.25 eV when the mixing ratio of SiC whisker to the SiC matrix was 1 : 2 and the activation energy was 0.16 eV for the 2 : 1 matrix. It means that SiC whisker matrix contributes to attain a better microstructure for the diffusion of hydrogen ion. From the measurement of single cell performance of matrix with various mixing ratio, it is concluded that if SiC-SiC whisker maxed matrix has a sufficient bubble pressure to prevent the crossover of H2 gas, the current density of a fuel cell is increased with the increase of acid absorbency of the matrix. Current density was improved from 140 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for 0.25 mm thickness of matrix to 170 mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for the 0.20 mm one at 700 mV.

A method to predict the creep behavior of fiber-reinforced ceramic composites at high temperatures was suggested based on finite element modeling using constituent creep equations of fiber and matrix and showed good agreement with the experimental results. The effects of matrix creep behavior, fiber volume fraction, and residual stresses on the composite creep behavior were also investigated. The results showed that the primary behavior of composites was greatly affected by that of matrix but post-primary behavior was governed by fiber creep characteristics. The increase of fiber volume fraction from 15 vol% to 30 vol% caused the 50% and 40% decrease of steady-state creep rates and total creep strains at $1200^{\circ}C$, 180MPa, respectively. Feasible compressive residual stresses in the matrix caused by different thermal expansion coefficients between the fiber and the matrix could significantly reduce total creep strains of the composite. The creep deformation mechanism in the fiber-reinforced ceramic composites could be explained by the stress transfer and redistribution in the fiber and matrix due to different creep characteristics of its constituents.

To prepare the alumina cement free vibrated alumina castable, $\rho$-alumina is employed as a binder material, and nano-sized clay is added to enhance the curing strength and give thixotropic behavior. The rheological behavior of matrix of castable is controlled by investigating the influences of ultrafines, $\rho$-alumina, and nano-sized clay on the viscosity of matrix. The microsilica and ultrafine alumina were added 3 wt% and 4 wt%, respectively to the matrix, which showed that the viscosities tends to be lowest values. The rheological property of the matrix is well established by adding $\rho$-alumina as 8 wt% and clay as 4 wt%. The thixotropic behavior of the $\rho$-alumina bonded castable was appeared by introducing nano-sized clay into the matrix and adjusting the pH near to the PZC of the clay suspension.

The novel carbon coating process for interlayer of fiber reinforced ceramic composites between fiber and matrix was performed by carbonizing phenolic resin solution that coated on fiber surface in $N_2$ atmosphere at $600^{\circ}C$ to improve the strength and fracture toughness of CMC(ceramic matrix composite). 160 nm carbon layer was coated on fiber surface with 5 vol% of phenolic resin solution. Since the process temperature ($600^{\circ}C$) is lower than chemical vapor deposition($900{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$), the strength and toughness could be preserved. Furthermore the coating thickness uniformity was improved to 8% of deviation along the stacking sequence. Therefore, prevention from fiber degradation during coating process and controlling coating thickness uniformity along the preform depth were achieved by coating with phenolic resin carbonizing method.
