Nanocrystalline materials have recently received significant attention in the area of advanced materials engineering due to their improved physical and mechanical properties. A solid-solution nanocrystalline powder, (Ti,Mo)C, was prepared via high-energy milling of Ti-Mo alloys with graphite. Using XRD data, the synthesis process was investigated in terms of the phase evolution. Rapid sintering of nanostuctured (Ti,Mo)C hard materials was performed using a pulsed current activated sintering process (PCAS). This process allows quick densification to near theoretical density and inhibits grain growth. A dense, nanostructured (Ti,Mo)C hard material with a relative density of up to 96 % was produced by simultaneous application of 80 MPa and a pulsed current for 2 min. The average grain size of the (Ti,Mo)C was lower than 150 nm. The hardness and fracture toughness of the dense (Ti,Mo)C produced by PCAS were also evaluated. The fracture toughness of the (Ti,Mo)C was higher than that of TiC.

In this study, we report the as-prepared MgO-doped $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$, which was prepared by calcination technique and high-energy ball milling process, as an electromagnetic wave absorber. The phase analysis of $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ and the as-prepared MgO-doped $BaFe_{12}O_{19}$ was detected utilizing X-ray Diffractometer (XRD). The microstructure was characterized using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). By means of the transmission/reflection coaxial line method, the electromagnetic properties and microwave absorbing properties of the as-prepared electromagnetic wave absorber were studied. It is found that the electromagnetic wave absorber has a minimum reflection loss value of -41 dB at 4.27 GHz with a matching thickness of 2.6 mm. The experiment results revealed that the as-prepared electromagnetic wave absorber could find potential applications in many military as well as commercial industries.

The effects of residual impurities on solid state sintering of the powder injection molded (PIMed) W-15wt%Cu nanocomposite powder were investigated. The W-Cu nanocomposite powder was produced by the mech-ano-chemical process consisting of high energy ball-milling and hydrogen reduction of W blue powder-cuO mixture. Solid state sintering of the powder compacts was conducted at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 2~10 h in hydrogen atmosphere. The den-sification of PIM specimen was slightly larger than that of PM(conventional PM specimen), being due to fast coalescence of aggregate in the PIM. The only difference between PIM and PM specimens was the amount of residual impurities. The carbon as a strong reduction agent effectively reduced residual W oxide in the PIM specimen. The $H_2O$ formed by $H_2$ reduction of oxide disintegrated W-Cu aggregates during removal process, on the contrary to this, micropore volume rapidly decreased due to coalescence of the disintegrated W-Cu aggregates during evolution of CO.It can be concluded that the higher densification was due to the earlier occurred Cu phase spreading that was induced by effective removal of residual oxides by carbon.

The present study conducts experimental investigation on spreading and deposition characteristics of a $4.3{\mu}l$ de-ionized (DI) water droplet impacting upon aluminum (Al 6061) flat and textured surfaces. The micro-textured surface consisted the micro-hole arrays (hole diameter: $125{\mu}m$, hole depth: $125{\mu}m$) fabricated by the conventional micro-computer numerical control (${\mu}$-CNC) milling machine process. We examined the surface effect of texture area fraction ${\varphi}_s$ ranging from 0 to 0.57 and impact velocity of droplet ranging from 0.40 m/s to 1.45 m/s on spreading and deposition characteristics from captured images. We used a high-speed camera to capture sequential images for investigate spreading characteristics and the image sensor to capture image of final equilibrium deposition droplet for analyze spreading diameter and contact angle. We found that the deposition droplet on textured surfaces have different wetting states. When the impact velocity is low, the non-wetting state partially exists, whereas over 0.64 m/s of impact velocity, totally wetting state is more prominent due to the increase kinetic energy of impinging droplet.

Ti와 Ti-6%Al-4%V합금은 내 부식성 및 생체 적합성이 매우 우수하기 때문에 현재 생체재료로써 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 Ti-6%Al-4V합금에 포함된 Al과 V이 신체에 좋지 않은 영향을 줄 수 있다는 연구 결과가 보고되면서 새로운 생체재료의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 생체에 무해한 Ti-Nb와 hydroxyapatite(HAp)를 복합 첨가하여 고에너지볼밀링(high-energy mechanical milling, HEMM)으로 나노 합금분말을 제조 후 급속소결에 의하여 Ti-Nb/HAp 생체재료를 제조 하였다. 제조한 Ti-Nb/HAp 생체용 복합재료에서 HAp 첨가량과 분말의 밀링, 믹싱에 따른 조직 변화와 소결체의 생체적합성의 변화 및 기계적 특성의 변화를 분석하였다. 이때 Ti-42%Nb에 HAp의 첨가량을 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%로 변화를 주었고, 밀링은 고에너지볼밀링기를 이용하여 0~8시간 동안 실시하였다. 그 결과 밀링 시간이 증가할수록 합금 분말의 크기가 미세해졌으며, 특히 8시간 밀링시 분말의 크기가 나노 크기로 감소하여 기계적 특성(경도 및 강도)이 우수해지는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The synthesis and characteristics of W-Ni-Fe nanocomposite powder by hydrogen reduction of ball milled W-Ni-Fe oxide mixture were investigated. The ball milled oxide mixture was prepared by high energy attrition milling of W blue powder, NiO and $Fe_2O_3$ for 1 h. The structure of the oxide mixture was characteristic of nano porous agglomerate composite powder consisting of nanoscale particles and pores which act as effective removal path of water vapor during hydrogen reduction process. The reduction experiment showed that the reduction reaction starts from NiO, followed by $Fe_2O_3$ and finally W oxide. It was also found that during the reduction process rapid alloying of Ni-Fe yielded the formation of $\gamma$-Ni-Fe. After reduction at 80$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 h, the nano-composite powder of W-4.57Ni-2.34Fe comprising W and $\gamma$-Ni-Fe phases was produced, of which grain size was35nm for W and 87 nm for $\gamma$-Ni-Fe, respectively. Sinterability of the W heavy alloy nanopowder showing full density and sound microstructure under the condition of 147$0^{\circ}C$/20 min is thought to be suitable for raw material for powder injection molding of tungsten heavy alloy.

Nano-sized Co and $Al_2O_3$ powders were successfully synthesized from $3/4Co_3O_4$ and 2Al by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanocrystalline $2.25Co-Al_2O_3$ composite was consolidated from mechanically synthesized powders by the pulsed current activated sintering (PCAS) method within 2 min. Consolidation was accomplished under the combined effects of a pulsed current and mechanical pressure. A dense $2.25Co-Al_2O_3$ with relative density of up to 95% was produced under simultaneous application of a 80 MPa pressure and a pulsed current of 2800 A. The fracture toughness and hardness of the $2.25Co-Al_2O_3$ composite were $8MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$, $870kg/mm^2$, respectively.

Nanopowders of TiCo were synthesized from Ti and Co by high energy ball milling. Highly dense nanostructured TiCo compounds were consolidated at low temperature by pulsed current activated sintering within 3 minutes from the mechanical synthesis of the powders (TiCo) and horizontal milled Ti+Co powders under 100 Mpa pressure. This process allows very quick densification to near theoretical density and prohibits grain growth in nanostructured materials. The grain sizes of the TiCo compounds were calculated. Finally, the average hardness values of the nanostructured TiCo compounds were investigated.

Nanopowder of FeAl and $Al_2O_3$ was synthesized from FeO and Al powders by high energy ball milling. Using the pulsed current activated sintering method, the nanocystalline $Al_2O_3$ reinforced FeAl composite was consolidated within two minutes from mechanically synthesized powders. The advantage of this process is that it allows very quick densification to near theoretical density and prohibits grain growth in nanostuctured materials. The grain size, sintering behavior and hardness of sintered $FeAl-Al_2O_3$ composite were investigated.

In this study, the fabrication of ultra fine grained Mo bulk was conducted. $MoO_3$ nanopowders were prepared by a high energy ball-milling process and then reduced at the temperature of $800^{\circ}C$ without holding time in $H_2$ atmosphere. The particle size of Mo nanopowder was ~150 nm and grain size was ~40 nm. The two-step process was employed for the sintering of Mo nanopowder to obtain fine grain size. The densification over 90% could be obtained by the two-step sintering with a grain size of less than 660 nm. For higher density, modified two-step sintering was designed. 95% of theoretical density with the grain size of 730 nm was obtained by the modified two-step sintering.
