Machinable ceramics containing ${\beta}$-spodumene crystal was fabricated by melting method using domestic pyrophyllite. Raw materials were batched by molar ratio of 8:2, 7:3, 6:4, and 5:5 for fluorophlogopite and ${\beta}$-spodumene. These compounds were melted at 1450$^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr and formed in graphite mold. Base glasses were heat-treated according to 2-step schedule which was determined from DTA, XRD analysis and SEM observation. Fabricated machinable ceramics have excellent themal, chemical properties and machinability.

The multicrystalline machinable ceramics was fabricated by melting method using domestic pyrophyllite. After determination of optimum crystallization temperature and time from results of DTA, XRD and SEM, base glasses were heat treated by 2-step schedule. Main crystalline phases identified by XRD, EDX were Na-fluorophlogopite, ${\beta}$-spoduemen and ${\alpha}$-cordierite, and the crystallization condition of these crystals was varied with chemical composition, thermal history and nucleation agents. The thermal, chemical properties of prepared samples were excellent.

The objectives of this study are to evaluate mechanical properties of glass ceramic for dome port cover material o( the ramjet. Candidate material for dome port cover of the ramjet is selected the machinable glass ceramic(MACOR glass-filled ceramic, Corning Glass Works, code 9658). Static and dynamic fracture toughness tests were performed to evaluate the apparent fracture toughness of notched specimen.

Aluminium titanate($Al_2TiO_5$) has extremely anisotropic thermal expansion properties in single crystals, and polycrystalline material spontaneously microcracks in the cooling step after sintering process. These fine intergranular cracks limit the strength of the material, but provide an effective mechanism for absorbing strain energy during thermal shock and preventing catastrophic crack propagation. Furthermore, since machinable BN-ceramics used as an insulating substrate in current micro-electronic industry are very expensive, the development of new low-cost machinable substrate ceramics are consistently required. Therefore, cheap $Al_2TiO_5$-machinable ceramics was studied for the replacement of BN ceramics. $Al_2O_3-Al_2TiO_5$ ceramic composite was fabricated via in-situ reaction sintering. $Al_2O_3$ and $TiO_2$ powders were mixed with various mol-ratio and sintered at 1400 to $1600^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. Density, hardness and strength of sintered ceramics were systematically measured. Phase analysis and microstructures were observed by XRD and SEM, respectively. Machinability of each specimens was tested by micro-hole machining. The results of research showed that the $Al_2TiO_5$-composites could be used for low-cost machinable ceramics.

In this study, high quality machinable ceramics was prepared from the K2O-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2-B2O3-F glass system using domestic pyrophyllite. The mixture of pyrophyllite and additives was melted at 1450$^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour and formed in a graphite mold. The base glass was heat-treated at 600$^{\circ}C$ to 1200$^{\circ}C$ with interval of 50$^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours identified by XRD. Crystalline phase were confirmed by XRD and their microstructure was observed by SEM. The glass ceramics which was prepared by heat treatment of base glass at 1150$^{\circ}C$ for short time has good physical, mechanical, thermal, chemical properties and machinability.

The machinability of materials is an important factor in engineering applications. Many ceramic components that have complex shapes require machining, typically using diamond tools, which leads to high production cost. Machinable ceramics containing h-BN have recently been developed, but these materials are very expensive because of high cost of raw materials and machining. Therefore the development of low-cost machinable ceramics is desirable. In this study, mullite-$ZrO_2$ ceramics were prepared additions of $Al_2TiO_5$. $ZrSiO_4$, $Al_2O_3$, and $Al_2TiO_5$ powders mixed at various molar ratios with sintering at 1400, 1500, and $1600^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. Phase formation and microstructure of the sintered ceramics were observed by XRD and SEM, respectively. The machinability of each specimen was tested using the micro-hole machining method. The machinability results show that the ceramics sintered at temperatures over $1500^{\circ}C$ can be used as good low-cost machinable mullite-$ZrO_2-Al_2TiO_5$ ceramics.

Machinability is important in engineering applications, especially in the current micro-electronics industry. Most ceramic components have complex shapes and hence require machining generally with diamond tools, which incurs a high production cost. Recently, h-BN-containing machinable ceramics have been developed, but these materials are very expensive due to the high raw materials and production costs. Therefore, the development of low-cost machinable ceramics is necessary. In this study, inexpensive $Al_2TiO_5$ was studied as a replacement for h-BN. $Al_2O_3$, $TiO_2$ and partially stabilized $ZrO_2$(PSZ) powders were mixed with various mole ratios and were sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The density, hardness and strength were then measured. The phase analysis and microstructures were observed by XRD and SEM, respectively. The machinability of each specimen was tested by micro-hole machining. The results of this research showed that the produced composites could be used as low-cost machinable ceramics.

In-process Electrolytic Dressing is a lapping method using electrolysis. This technology provides dressing to CIB-Diamond Lapping wheels during the lapping process for continuous protrude abrasive from super-abrasive wheels. so loading and glazing are disappeared apparently. Ultra-precision lapping of the machinable commies will be studied in the viewpoint of In-process Electrolytic Dressing. For ultra-precision lapping, need to develop an ultra-precision lapping system suitable metal bonded diamond wheel, and appropriate condition of u10a-precision lapping machining.
