The effect of the role of alloyed components on the densification of two kind of high speed steel (mixed and prealloyed powder), which were sintered at 1403~ 1573 K for 7.2 ks in vacuum, was investigated. The results obtained were as follows. (1) Without the presence of Vanadium (V), the relative density of sintered compacts (Ds) could not reached the density of 100% regardless of the. elements in the compacts. (2) The addition of V up to 2 mass% did not result In the complete densification when the carbon content was fixed at 2% in the compact. (3) With the fixed amount of V of 7%, Ds decreased with the increase of the carbon content. (4) The addition of mixed fine powder to the prealloyed powder in the range of 20 to 40% provided the complete densification and carbide panicles of 1~2 $\mu\textrm{m}$ through the solid phase sintering. (5) The V element played important role in controlling the complete or incomplete densification of the sintered compacts in the alloyed component because of its formation of stable oxide and carbide as well as the low equilibrium pressure of CO gas.

The conversion effciency of higher than 95% can be obtained and the lattice constant value of the product was 4.322$\AA$. 2. The combustion mode, velocity and temperature of combustion wave was photographed using high-speed camera, and showed steady-state, velocity of 15.414mm/sec at 250$0^{\circ}C$. 3. The relative density and MOR strength of TiC sintered at 180$0^{\circ}C$ for 90 minutes by hot-pressing under the pressure of 200kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ were 95% and 395MPa, respectively.

It is known that Si3N4 ceramic insert has less hardness than Al2O3 ceramic insert. But Si3N4 ceramic insert has not only high toughness and strength but also low thermal expansion coefficient, which makes it has longer tool life under thermal stress condition. In this study, commercial Si3N4 ceramic insert and home-made SiC-Si3N4 ceramic insert which has different sintering time and chemical composition is tested under various cutting conditions. The experimental result is compared in terms of tool life and cutting force. Generally, As the cutting speed and the feed rate increased, the cutting force and the flank wear increased too. The performance of SiC-Si3N4 ceramic insert shows the possibility to be a new ceramic tool.

In process of the finish face milling of the hardended STD11 steel(H /sab r/ c50,55) by CBN tool, the optimum tool shape is suggested,which can minimize the tool fracture and by chipping by impact. The obtained results are as follows. (1) The optimal chamfer angel was about 25 .deg. , and the suitable chamfer width was 0.2mm. (2) The nose radius of tool was most excellent at 1.2mm in the viewpoint of tool wear and surface roughness. (3) Wear speed was effected by sintering method of CBN tool B.U.E

An M-shaped SiC gas igniter was fabricated by a reaction sintering followed by nitrogen doping. The igniter showed both resistivity at room temperature and NTC to PTC transition temperature values that were lower than those of commercial igniters. It was deduced that the doped nitrogen reduces the electrical resistivity at room temperature, while, at high temperature, the doped nitrogen and a trace of $Si_3N_4$ phase work as scattering centers against electron transfer, resulting in a lowered NTC-to-PTC transition point (below $650^{\circ}C$). Such characteristics were correlated to the fast heating speed (as compared to the commercial models) and to the prevention of the high temperature overshooting of the nitrogen-doped SiC igniter.

The NdBaCuO superconducting samples were prepared by the Zone melting under low oxygen partial pressure. After the zone-melting the oxygenation process of the NdBaCuO samples in a oxygen flow furnace was studied. In order to compare the oxygenation condition the sintering NdBaCuO samples were studied also. In the study it is found that the optimum temperature for the oxygenation is $350^{\circ}C$, and the oxygen flow speed, the sample volume and the surface area of the sample would influence the oxygenation and the oxygen content.

This study attempts to develop a process which can produce three-dimensional shapes of metals directly from CAD data. Prototypes made from metals, can not only be used to test the mecchanical properties of the product, but also potentially become the actual die or product itself. The test-device of the process has been designed and manufactured. The laser scanning method using a scanning path schedule composed of circle and arc elements, scanning speed variation method and dwell method have been developed, which resist warping phenomenon and increase the adhesiveness between the layers. For the production of prototypes with pure iron powder, the optimal values of the principal process parameters have been determined, through which cross-shaped and twisted clover-shaped prototypes have been fabricated. In order to improve the strength of the prototype, the experimental studies of solid-phase sintering, and copper infiltration have been done.

Clinical applications of translucent zirconia as well as traditional zirconia (3 mol% yttria stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal, 3Y-TZP) are increasing. For this reason, studies on factors affecting the optical properties of dental zirconia have been continuously reported. The optical effect of dental zirconia may vary depending on the yttria content, the thickness of the prosthesis, the sintering process, polishing, glazing and cementation in laboratory and clinical procedures. Increasing the yttria concentration can reduce the masking effect. Translucency decreases as the thickness of the restoration increases, but the required thickness may vary depending on the properties of the zirconia block. The high-speed sintering method can shorten the manufacturing time, but in some cases, the translucency of the prosthesis may decrease. In addition, the optical properties can be affected by the surface roughness of zirconia and the polishing process. The use of an appropriate colored cement can help with the masking effect of zirconia and can be useful for color matching for more esthetic results.
