The influence of the co-additive concentration (0 - 45 wt% with an interval of 5 wt%) of MgO-$TiO_2$ on the phase formation, microstructure and fracture toughness of MgO-$TiO_2$-reinforced dental porcelain nanocomposites derived from a one-step sintering technique were examined using a combination of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Vickers indentation. It was found that MgO-$TiO_2$-reinforced dental porcelain nanocomposites exhibited significantly higher fracture toughness values than those observed in single-additive (MgO or $TiO_2$)-reinforced dental porcelain composites at any given sintering temperature. The amount of MgO-$TiO_2$ as a co-additive was found to be one of the key factors controlling the phase formation, microstructure and fracture toughness of these nanocomposites. It is likely that 30 wt% of MgO-$TiO_2$ as a co-additive is the optimal amount for $MgTi_2O_5$ and $Mg_2SiO_4$ crystalline phase formation to obtain the maximum relative density (96.80%) and fracture toughness ($2.60{\pm}0.07MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$) at a sintering temperature of $1000^{\circ}C$.

The mechanical and electrical properties of the hot-pressed and annealed $\beta$-Sic-$TiB_2$ electroconductive ceramic composites were investigated as function of the liquid forming additives of $Al_{2}O_{3}+Y_{2}O_3$. Phase analysis of composites by XRD revealed $\alpha$-SiC(6H), $TiB_2$, and YAG($Al_{5}Y_{3}O_{12}$). The relative density and the mechanical properties of composites were increased with increasing $Al_{2}O_{3}+Y_{2}O_3$ contents because YAG of reaction between $Al_{2}O_3$ and $Y_{2}O_3$ was increased. The Flexural strength showed the highest value of 432.5MPa for composites added with l2wt% $Al_{2}O_{3}+Y_{2}O_3$ additives at room temperature. Owing to crack deflection, crack bridging, phase transition and YAG of fracture toughness mechanism. the fracture toughness showed 7.1MPa${\cdot}m^{1/2}$. For composites added with l2wt% $Al_{2}O_{3}+Y_{2}O_3$ additives at room temperature The electrical resistivity and the resistance temperature coefficient respectively showed the lowest of 6.0${\sim}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}$ cm and 3.1${\times}10^{-3}/^{\circ}C$ for composite added with l2wt% $Al_{2}O_{3}+Y_{2}O_3$ 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$^{\circ}C$.

The NASICON solid electrolyte films, $Na_{1+x}Zr_2Si_xP_{3-x}O_{12}$(1.5< x < 2.3), was prepared from ceramic slurry by modified doctor-blade process. The NASICON solid electrolyte and fabricated sensors, Pt-electrode/NASICON/Carbonate$(Na_2CO_3-K_2CO_3CaCO_3\; system)$ electrode, were investigated to measure phase, microstructure and e.m.f variation for sensing $CO_2$ concentration. The uniform grain size of $2-4{\mu}m$ and major phase of sodium zirconium silicon phosphate phase, $Na_{1+x}Zr_2Si_xP_{3-x}O_{12}$was identified with X-ray diffraction patterns and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The Nernst's slope of 84 mV/decade for $CO_2$ concentration from 500 to 8000 ppm was obtained at operating temperature of $400^{\circ}C$.

The Mg-enriched magnesium aluminum silicate (MAS) glass is known for its higher mechanical strength and chemical resistance. Among such glasses, cordierite ($Mg_2Al_4Si_5O_{18}$) is well known to have a low thermal expansion and low melting point. Polycrystalline engineering ceramics such as alumina can be strengthened by a surface modification with low thermal expansion materials. The present study involves the synthesis of cordierite by a sol-gel process and investigates the effect of glass penetration on the surface of alumina. The cordierite powders were prepared from $Al(OC_3H_7)_3$, $Mg(OC_2H_5)_2$ and tetraethyl orthosilicate by hydrolysis and condensation reaction. The cordierite powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD, Rigaku), scanning electron microscope (SEM, JEOL: JSM-5610), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS, JEOL: JSM-5610), and universal testing machine (UTM, INSTRON). The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the synthesized particles were ${\mu}$-cordierite calcined at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 1 h. The shape of synthesized cordierite was changed from ${\mu}$-cordierite to ${\alpha}$-cordierite with increasing calcination temperature. Synthesized cordierite was used for surface modification of alumina. Cordierite powders penetrated deeply into the alumina sample along grain boundaries with increasing temperature. The results of surface modification tests showed that the strength of the prepared alumina sample increased after surface modification. The strength of a surface modified with synthesized cordierite increased the most, to about 134.6MPa.

Heterolayered K(Ta,Nb)O₃/Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃ thin films on Pt/Ti/SiO₂/Si substrates were prepared by a sol-gel process and spin-coating method. The structural and electrical properties were measured to investigate the possibility of application as an electrocaloric effect device. All specimens exhibited dense and uniform cross-sectional structures without pores, and the average thickness of the specimen coated six times was approximately 394 nm. Curie temperatures were observed at 5℃ or less in type-I and 10℃ in type-II specimens, respectively. Type-II specimens coated 6 times showed a relative dielectric constant of 758 and remanent polarization of 9.71 μC/㎠ at room temperature. The maximum electrocaloric effect occurred between 20 and 25℃, slightly higher than their Curie temperature, and the electrocaloric property (ΔT) of the type-II specimens coated 6 times was approximately 1.2℃ at room temperature.

본 연구는 사용 후 핵연료의 금속전환 공정에서 발생되는 폐용융염을 고형화하는 방법으로 GRSS(Gel-Route Slabilization/Solidifcation)개념을 이용한 전처 리법을 제안하였다. Sodium silicate와 H3p04로 구성된 물질계에서는 SiO$_2$에 의해 형성되는 반응모듈 내에서 휘발성 핵종은 열적으로 안정한 화합물로 전환된다. 얻어진 생성물은 붕규산 유리매질과의 반응을 통하여 Li는 Li$_{3}$PO$\_4$ 형태로 유지되며 Cs 및 Sr은 유리매질내에 포용될 수 있다. 또한 sodium silicate, H$_{3}$PO$_4$ 및 ZrCl$_4$로 이루어진 물질계를 이용하여 내구성이 우수한 WZP 세라믹 고화매질을 합성하였다. $700^{circ}C$이상에서 NZP구조가 형성되며, Cs가 Li보다 우선하여 NZP구조를 형성하였다. 이상의 결과로부터, GRSS를 이용한 폐용융염의 전처리는 단순한 공정과 열적 안정성을 통하여 검증된 고화매질로 고형화가 가능토록하는 유효한 접근법이라 할 수 있으며, 수화학적 안정성의 검증을 통하여 ANL의 제올라이트를 이용한 고화법에 대한 대안이 될 것으로 기대된다.

테오스(TEOS)를 출발물질로 사용하여 건조조절제(DCCA;Dying Control Chemical Additives)를 첨가하지 않고, 솔-젤 법을 이용하여 Si(001) 단결정 기판 위에 실리카 박막을 제조하였다. 박막은 스핀 코팅 방법으로 테오스 =1 몰, 염산=0.05몰의 조건하에 메탄올, 증류수의 첨가량을 변화시키면서 젤화 완료시간, 박막의 두께, 균열 발생 여부, 박막의 결정성 등을 조사하였다. 그 결과 솔의 제화 완료시간은 메탄올 첨가량이 8몰일 때 가장 긴 640시간이었다. 코팅된 박막의 두께는 메탄올 첨가량이 많아질수록 감소하였다. 소결은 승온 속도$0.6^{\circ}C$/min으로 $500^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 행하였으며, 메탄올 첨가량이 0.8몰, 2몰일 때는 표면에서 균열이 발생하여 worm-like grain 구조를 가졌고, 메탄올 4몰인 경우에는 국부적으로 균열이 발생하였으나, 메탄올 양이 8몰 이상에서는 균열이 발생하지 않았다. 즉, 솔-젤 공정에서 균열 방지를 위해 첨가되는 건조조절제(DMF)를 첨가하지 않고도 용매인 메탄올과 증류수 혼합비를 조절, 표면장력을 제어함으로써 균열없는 박막을 제조하였다.

Laser assisted machining (LAM) has been researched in order to machine the silicon nitride ceramics economically and effectively. LAM is an effective machining method by local heating of the cutting part to the softening temperature of the silicon nitride using laser beam. When silicon nitride ceramics is heated using a laser beam, the surface of silicon nitride ceramic is softened, oxidized and decomposed. And then surface hardness is decreased. Through machining in low viscosity and hardness conditions, silicon nitride was machined effectively and the life span of tool was increased. The plastic deformation was occurred due to softening of amorphous YSiAlON above $ 1,000^{\circ}C$. Transgranular fracture of ${\beta}-Si_3N_4$ was occurred when YSiAlON was not softened, but mostly intergranular fracture was occurred by the plastic deformation of softened YSiAlON.

$RuO_2$ thin films deposited directly on Si substrate by RF magnetron sputtering method using $RuO_2$ target have been investigated. Special interest was focused on the effect of process parameter on the surface roughness of $RuO_2$ films. Crystallization behavior and electrical properties of the films deposited at $300^{\circ}C$ were superior to those deposited at room temperature. Metallic Ru phase was formed in pure Ar and this phase had resulted poor adhesion after post annealing process in oxidizing ambient. Microstructural analysis reveals that the size of the $RuO_2$ crystallites gets smaller and the surface becomes smoother as the $O_2$ partial pressure or film thickness decreases. Irrespective of the $O_2/Ar$ ratio, resistivity of $RuO_2$ films ranged in $50~70 {\mu}{\Omega}-cm$. As the film thickness decreases, there is a thickness where the resistivity rises abruptly. Such an onset thickness turned out to be dependent n the $O_2$/Ar ratio.
