This investigation was designed to determine whether heat-pressing and/or simulated heat treatments affected the flexure strength and the microstructure of the lithium disilicate glass-ceramic in the IPS Empress 2 system. Four groups of the specimens were prepared as follows: group 1 - as-received material, group 2 - heat-pressed material; group 3 - heat-pressed and simulated initial heat-treated material; group 4 - heat-pressed and the simulated heat-treated material with full firings for a final restoration. The three-point bending test and the scanning elec-tron microscope (SEM) analysis was conducted for the purpose of this study. The flexure strength of group 2 was significantly higher than that of group 1. However, there were no significant differences in strength among group 2, 3, and 4, and between group 1 and 4. The SEM micrographs of the lithium disilicate glass-ceramic showed the closely packed, multi-directionally interlocking microstructure of numerous lithium disilicate crystals protruding from the glass matrix. The crystals of the heat-pressed materials (group 2, 3, and 4) were a little denser and about two times bigger than those of the as-received material (group 1). This change of microstructure is more obviously exhibited particularly between group 1 and 2. However, there was no a marked difference among group 2, 3, and 4 after the heat-pressing procedure. Although there were significant increase of the strength and some changes of the microstructure after the heat-pressing operation, the combination of the heat-pressing and the simulated subsequent heat treatments did not produce the increase of strength of IPS Empress 2 glass-ceramic.

음극지지형 SOFC의 성능을 향상시키기 위해 단전지 제조공정을 개선하고 그 출력특성을 평가하였다. 액상응결 공정(Liquid Condensation Process : LCP)과 일축가압성형공정을 통하여 NiO/YSZ 복합체 음극기판을 제조하고 위에 YSZ 전해질을 스크린 인쇄한 후 140$0^{\circ}C$에서 3시간동안 동시소결하여 음극/전해질 기판을 제조하였다. 또한 LSM/YSZ 양극층은 임피던스 분석을 통해 분극저항이 최소가 되는 조성 및 열처리 조건을 선택하여 스크린 인쇄법을 이용해 구성하였고 이러한 적층공정을 거쳐 최종적으로 5${\times}$5와 l0${\times}$10 $\textrm{cm}^2$ 크기의 단전지를 제조하였다. 제조된 단전지의 출력특성을 측정한 결과 5${\times}$5와 10${\times}$10 단전지는 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 약 0.45W/$\textrm{cm}^2$ 와 0.22 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$의 최대출력밀도를 각각 나타내어 선행연구에서 기존공정으로 제조된 단전지에 비해 2배 이상 향상된 좋은 성능을 나타내었다.

The progressive die performs a work of sheet metal processes with a piercing, notching, embossing, bending, drawing, cut-off etc. in many kinds of pressing. Now a days, these processes have been evaluated as a advanced tooling method to increase the productivity and high quality assurance. The first step analyzing of die design is production part review, then the arrangement drawing of product design and strip process layout design should be done as a next steps with a FEM simulation for its problem solution. After upper procedure were peformed, it was started to make the die, then tryout and its revision of the die and product quality, safety, productivity etc. were done continually. For the all of these process, we mobilized the theory and practice of sheet metal forming, die structure, the function and activity of die components, and the others of die machining, die material, heat treatment and know‐how so on. In this study the features of representative are production part analyzing through the FEM simulation of bending area with a considering spring back problem by DEFORM.
