A sintered body of $TiB_2$-reinforced iron matrix composite ($Fe-TiB_2$) is fabricated by pressureless-sintering of a mixture of titanium hydride ($TiH_2$) and iron boride (FeB) powders. The powder mixture is prepared in a planetary ball-mill at 700 rpm for 3 h and then pressurelessly sintered at 1300, 1350 and $1400^{\circ}C$ for 0-2 h. The optimal sintering temperature for high densities (above 95% relative density) is between 1350 and $1400^{\circ}C$, where the holding time can be varied from 0.25 to 2 h. A maximum relative density of 96.0% is obtained from the ($FeB+TiH_2$) powder compacts sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. Sintered compacts have two main phases of Fe and $TiB_2$ along with traces of TiB, which seems to be formed through the reaction of TiB2 formed at lower temperatures during the heating stage with the excess Ti that is intentionally added to complete the reaction for $TiB_2$ formation. Nearly fully densified sintered compacts show a homogeneous microstructure composed of fine $TiB_2$ particulates with submicron sizes and an Fe-matrix. A maximum hardness of 71.2 HRC is obtained from the specimen sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 0.5 h, which is nearly equivalent to the HRC of conventional WC-Co hardmetals containing 20 wt% Co.

Porous hybrid preforms were fabricated by reactive sintering using the compacts consisting of SiC particles, Fe and Al powders. Squeeze casting processing was employed to produce the composite in which the matrix phase is Al-Si7Mg. The microstructural change and wear resistance of the composites were investigated in terms of an amount of SiC particles. The wear loss was increased with increasing the contact pressure in the alloy containing SiC particles coated with Cu. The most drastic change was found to the specimen tested at 2.5 MPa of contact pressure. Concerning the alloys containing SiC particles coated with Ni-P, a drastic increase in the wear loss exhibited at 2 MPa of contact pressure in those alloys containing 4 and 8 wt. % of SiC particles coated with Ni-P. In the alloy containing 16 wt. % a proportional increase in wear loss was observed to the change of contact pressure. With respecting to the sliding velocity, the wear loss of the alloy containing SiC particles coated with Cu increased at the initial stage of wear process and then decreased. Similar result was found in the alloys containing SiC particles coated with Ni-P. On the basis of the present results obtained, it was found that wear resistance of the alloys tested was improved to show in the order of the alloy reinforced by coated SiC particles > by uncoated SiC particles > by intermetallic compound without SiC particles.

The composites were fabricated 61 vol% $\beta$-SiC and $39vol%TiB_2$ powders with the liquid forming additives of 8, 12, 16wt% $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ by hot pressing at $1730^{\circ}C$ and subsequent pressed annealing and pressureless annealing at $1750^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours to form YAG. The result of phase analysis of composites by XRD revealed $\alpha$-SiC(6H), $TiB_2$, and YAG($Al_5Y_3O_{12}$) crystal phase. The relative density of composites were increased with increasing $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ contents. The fracture toughness showed the highest value of $7.77MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ for composites added with 12wt% $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ additives at room temperature. The electrical resistivity and the resistance temperature coefficient showed the lowest of $7.3{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and $3.8{\times}10^{-3}/^{\circ}C$, respectively, for composite added with 12wt% $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ additives at room temperature. The electrical resistivity of the composites was all positive temperature coefficient resistance(PTCR) in the temperature range of $25^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$.

With high integration of electronic components, power inductors are also miniaturized. Recently, thick film processes for small size power inductors were developed and commercialized. However, the thick film process to prepare soft magnetic green sheets was not reported enough. In this study, we used Fe-Si magnetic and CIP (carbonyl iron powders) as starting materials to lead to a bimodal particle size distribution in the sheet. We proposed a newly developed 'Modified slurry preparation process' to get well dispersed condition even at high solid contents. Using the new process, it was possible to prepare a well dispersed slurry over 70 vol% of solid. BYK-103 was better than BYK-111 as dispersant in this slurry and the optimum amount was 0.6 wt%. The optimized slurry was formed into a sheet by tape casting process and then the sheet was laminated. We conformed that small size powder, large size powder, and epoxy resin were well dispersed in the green sheet.

A study was conducted to evaluate the effect of substitution of the flour with Lycium chinense powder on the characteristics of yellow layer cake. Physical properties including specific gravity, specific volume, cake index and color were measured. Also, the hardness change during 6 storage days at 22℃ were measured. Even though the specific gravity of batter decreased significantly with respective addition of 12%, 16% and 20% Lycium chinense powder, the specific volume of cakes did not show difference except the case of 20% addition. The addition of Lycium chinense powder did not influence on cakes' appearance negatively except that of 20% cake. The crust became darker as the level of Lycium chinense powder increased. The crumb color turned into dark orange with addition of Lycium chinense powder, and the intensity became stronger as the level of Lycium chinense powder increased. Both 4% and 8% Lycium chinense powder cakes were scored as same as control in moistness and softness. And they were favored as much as control.

본 연구는 습식법으로 수산화 알루미늄과 티타니아를 출발물질로 하여 $Al_2$O$_3$-TiO$_2$복합분체를 제조하였으며, 2 mol의 Al(OH)$_3$분말에 대하여 TiO$_2$분말량을 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 wt%로 첨가하여 $Al_2$O$_3$-TiO$_2$복합분체의 특성을 조사하였다. 제조된 $Al_2$O$_3$-TiO$_2$계 복합분체는 $700^{\circ}C$~140$0^{\circ}C$까지 하소하여 XRD 분석을 한 결과 100$0^{\circ}C$까지는 TiO$_2$(rutile)상과 η-Al$_2$O$_3$상이 공존하다가 110$0^{\circ}C$부터 130$0^{\circ}C$까지는 η-Al$_2$O$_3$에서 $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$로의 상전이가 일어나서 $\alpha$-Al$_2$O$_3$상과 TiO$_2$(rutile)상이 나타났으며 하소온도 140$0^{\circ}C$, TiO$_2$첨가량이 5 wt%일 때부터 $Al_2$TiO$_{5}$가 생성되기 시작하였다. TiO$_2$첨가량에 따른 비표면적값은 첨가량이 7 wt%까지는 감소하였으나 그 이상 첨가시 증가하였다. 입도분석 결과 평균입경은 15.74~23.21$mu extrm{m}$로서 TiO$_2$첨가량이 3 wt%일 때 가장 작은 값을 가졌으며 TiO$_2$첨가량은 5 wt% 이상부터 점차 감소하였다.

A precipitation method, one of the most effective liquid phase reaction methods, was adopted in order to prepare high-tech Al2O3/ZrO2 composite ceramics. Al2(SO4)3.18H2O, ZrOCl2.8H2O and YCl3.6H2O were used as starting materials and NH4OH as a precipitation agent, various types of metal hydroxides were obtained by single precipitation(series A) and co-precipitation(series B) method at the pH condition between 7 and 11. Fine Al2O3-ZrO2 powders were prepared at optimum calcination condition and the effects of ZrO2 on microstructures and mechanical properties of Al2O3 were investigated. The composition of Al2O3/ZrO2 composites wax fixed as Al2O3-15 v/o ZrO2(＋3m/o Y2O3). ZrO2 limited the grain growth of Al2O3 and increased grain size homogeneity of Al2O3 more effectively than MgO.Flexural strength values in Al2O3 and Al2O3/ZrO2 composites were 340-430 MPa and 540-820 MPa, respectively, and the effect of strength improvement showed 20-50% by adding ZrO2 to Al2O3. Fracture toughness of Al2O3/ZrO2 composites was improved by stress-induced phase transformation of tetragonal ZrO2 and toughening effect by microcrack was not observed. Also, ZrO2 particles located at Al2O3 grain junction contributed to toughening, while spherical ZrO2 particles located within Al2O3 grain did not contribute to toughening. Weibull moduli of Al2O3 ceramics and Al2O3/ZrO2 composites of series A and series B were 4.34, 5.17 and 9.06, respectively. Above 0.5 of failure probability, strength values in Al2O3 ceramics and Al2O3/ZrO3 composites of series A and series B were above 400 MPa, 700 MPa and 650 MPa, respectively.

The manufacture of high strength polyethylene(HSPE) tape yarns has been accomplished by a solid state processing(SSP) method as the compaction of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene(UHMWPE) powders and drawing of the compacted film under the melting point without any organic solvents. In this study, the characteristics of HSPE tape yarns produced by SSP which is desirable for production cost and environmental aspect were analyzed. As the results, tensile strengths of HSPE tape yarns increased with increasing the draw ratio and the fracture morphology of highly drawn HSPE tape yarns showed more fibrillar shape than the low drawn one. Interfacial shear strengths of HSPE tape yarns with vinylester resin increased by $O_2$ plasma treatment and maximum interfacial shear strength was obtained in the plasma treatment condition of 100W and 5min. In addition, mechanical properties of HSPE tape yarn reinforced composites were investigated and compared with those of the gel spun HSPE fiber reinforced composites.

Wet noodles were prepared with wheat flour and mushroom powder (oyster and oak mushrooms), and effects of added mushroom powders on dough rheology and wet noodle quality were examined. Particle size distribution of mushroom powder ranged from 0.04 to $500\;{\mu}m$, which was different from that of wheat flour. The initial pasting temperature in amylograph, and the water absorption and the dough development time in farinograph increased with the increase of mushroom powder. The peak and final viscosities in amylograph, and dough stability in farinograph decreased with the increase of mushroom powder. Decrease of L value and increase of a and b values were shown with the increase of mushroom powder in wheat flour-mushroom powder composite as well as wet noodles. The cooked weight and volume of cooked noodles were decreased, but the turbidity of soup were increased with the addition of mushroom powder. Most of texture parameters (hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and cutting force) of cooked noodles decreased with the addition of oyster mushroom powder, but increased with the addition of oak mushroom powder. From the result of sensory evaluation, wet noodles containing 3% oyster mushroom powder and 5% oak mushroom powder were rated as high quality wet noodles.
