The composites in the system aluminium titanate-mullite were synthesized by stepwise alkoxide hydrolysis of tetraethylorthosilicate, Si(OCLH5), and titaniumtetraethoxide, $Ti(OC_{2}H_{5})_4$ in $Al_{2}O_{3}$ ethanolic colloidal solution. All particles produced by sol-gel-process were amorphous, monodispesed and had a narrow particle size distribution. Sintered bodies at $1600 ^{\circ}C$ for 2h were subjected to prolonged durability tests-on the one hand annealing at the critical decomposition temperature of $1100 ^{\circ}C$ for lOOh and on the other cyclic thermal shock between 750 and $1400 ^{\circ}C$ for 100h. The best thermal durability was achieved by a composition containing 70 and 80 vol% aluminium titanate, which showed little change in microstructure and thermal expansion cycles during the tests. The microstructural degradation of samples studied using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and dilatometry, was presented here. The study was conducted in order to predict the service life of aluminium titanate-mullite ceramics formed by this processing route.

There has been a controversy on the formation mechanism of $TiO_2$ nanotubes. This study was conducted to elucidate the formation mechanism of $TiO_2$ nanotubes. $TiO_2$ nanotubes were prepared by a hydrothermal method. $TiO_2$ nanotubes formation mechanism was investigated by controlling the formation time. It was found that $TiO_2$ nanotubes were formed by growing, not by wrapping of sheets. The phase structure of hydrogen titanate nanotubes was different from that of $TiO_2$ nanotubes. It is important to wash the sodium titanate nanotubes with an acidic solution to get hydrogen titanate nanotubes and then to calcine the hydrogen titanate nanotubes around $400^{\circ}C$ to obtain $TiO_2$ nanotubes.

When barium titanate was synthesized in solid-solid reaction the abnormal expansion occurred from 90$0^{\circ}C$ to 110$0^{\circ}C$. The equi molecular mixture of $BaCo_3$ and $TiO_2$ was sintered from 90$0^{\circ}C$ to 130$0^{\circ}C$ on the condition of air vacuum and $CO_2$ atomosphere. After that the specimens were tested closely with XDR Dilatometer and SEM The result indicated that: 1, Volume expansion to be synthesized barium titanate in solid-solid reaction was affected by atomosphere sintering. 2. The solid reaction ot fiorm barium titanate in vacuum atomosphere occurred faster than that in air atomosphere. In vacuum atomosphere the maxium volume expansion was about 30% at 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs, 3. The solid reaction to form barium titanate in 4CO_2$ atomosphere occurred slower than that in air atomosphere. In $CO_2$ atomosphere the maximum volume expansion was 13% at 100$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hrs. 4. According to the result of x-ray the expanison was caused by the reaction to form $BaTiO_3$ and change $Ba_2TiO_4$ into 4BaTiO_3$.

The titanate nanotube (TNT) was hydrothermally synthesized in 10 M NaOH aqueous solution at $150^{\circ}C$ for 72 h. Titanate nanotube with high surface area (292 $m^2$/g) is a good candidate as a support for catalytic reaction or organic synthesis. Palladium nanoparticles with an average size of $ca$. 3 nm were well dispersed onto the surface of TNT nanotubes. Palladium loaded catalyst with high surface area shows a highly efficient ${\alpha}$ alkylation of ketones with primary alcohols.

In this study, pore-containing barium titanate ceramics were prepared with different porosities and pore sizes, in order to better understand how porosity and pore size affect electrical breakdown of barium titanate ceramics. A granulated barium titanate powder was mixed with three grades of commercial polymer microspheres up to 11wt%. The electrical breakdown test was performed at two different temperatures of 30.deg. C(below Tc) and 150.deg. C(above Tc) for samples immersed in a silicon oil bath using a 60kV de power supply. Electrical breakdown strength of pore containing barium titanate ceramics with porosity lower than 10% decreased as pore size and porosity increased. However, above the 10% porosity region, electrical breakdown strength decreased as the pore connectivity increased. From the experimental results, an optimum electrical breakdown model is proposed in an attempt to explain the effect of pores.

A spectrochemical analysis was made to compare the major impurities in $BaTiO_3$ single crystals grown from $KF-BaTiO_3$ system and $TiO_2-BaTiO_3$ system respectively. The present technique was also extended, without any modifications, to the analysis of $SrTiO_3$ crystal.

A remarkable improvement of the productivity in barium titanate by slurry spray pyrolysis process was realized by supplying solid source slurry into the rector. The produced barium titanate powders showed uniform powder properties, and reproducibility with higher tetragonality in the range of 80$\sim$200 nm, case by case. The secondary calcination experiments of the as-prepared powders by spray pyrolysis revealed that the powders as-prepared over 700$^{\circ}C$ showed perfectly different behavior with the lower temperature's ones and the solid state reaction’s case. The result was discussed in terms of the reaction mechanism based on the activation energy analysis.

Barium titanate nanoparticles were synthesized under N$_2$ atmosphere by the hydrolysis and condensation of barium hydroxide octahydrate and titanium (IV) isopropoxide. The synthesized particles were aggregates of nanosized primary particles. The primary particles of about 20-50 nm in diameter became building blocks of larger secondary particles, which are in most cases spherical in shape. The size and morphological evolution of secondary particles are strongly related to the precursor concentration. The observations suggest that formation and control of secondary particles is an essential step in the alkoxidehydroxide sol-precipitation process to obtain monodispersed barium titanate nanopowders.
