Al2TiO5 powder was prepared by the sol-gel processing from th metal alkoxides ; aluminium sec-butoxide (Al(OC4H9)3 and tetraethyl orthotitanate (Ti(OC2H5)4) The particles of Al2TiO5 produced from alkoxides were measured to be below $1.5mutextrm{m}$ and mre than 90% weere below 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ however those from commercial alumina and titania were over 0.5-7${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and only 60% were below 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 90% were below 2.5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ Therefore Al2TiO5 powder produced from alkoxides had the narrower distributionin size than that produced from the commercial alumina and titania powders. The addition of mullite or Al2O3 powder to the prepared aluminum titanate inhibited the grain growth and this resulted in decreased and increase in density.

In order to make high-purity ferro-manganese from $Mn_3O_4$ dust, the application of aluminothermy process to the reduction of $Mn_3O_4$ dust was investigated in previous work. The result showed the fact that can be obtained high purity ferro-manganese which have over about 93% of manganese content and lower impurities such as C, P, S than those of KS D3712 specification. The addition of silicon powder instead of aluminum powder was investigated as reductant in the thermite reaction process of $Mn_3O_4$ dust in this work because its production cost is lower than that of aluminum powder. In case of addition of silicon powder only as reductant, the experimental result showed the unstable ignition and no thermite reaction of mixture, but in case of simultaneous addition of silicon and aluminum powders as reductant, showed the fact that can be obtained high purity ferro-manganese which have much low content of impurities such as C, P, S component.

This study investigates the interfacial reaction between powder-metallurgy high-entropy alloys (HEAs) and cast aluminum. HEA pellets are produced by the spark plasma sintering of Al_0.5CoCrCu_0.5FeNi HEA powder. These sintered pellets are then placed in molten Al, and the phases formed at the interface between the HEA pellets and cast Al are analyzed. First, Kirkendall voids are observed due to the difference in the diffusion rates between the liquid Al and solid HEA phases. In addition, although Co, Fe, and Ni atoms, which have low mixing enthalpies with Al, diffuse toward Al, Cu atoms, which have a high mixing enthalpy with Al, tend to form Al-Cu intermetallic compounds. These results provide guidelines for designing Al matrix composites containing high-entropy phases.

Ni-Al based intermetallic compounds of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) by the heat of molten aluminum and been coated on the aluminum casting alloy. The effects of the pouring temperature in casting and the thickness of casting substrate on SHS of the coating layer have been investigated. The experimental result showed that the reaction of the coating layer was activated with increasing the pouring temperature in casting and the thickness of casting substrate. However, the aluminum substrate was re-melted by the heat of formation for intermetallic compounds. Then, it was considered that some mechanical or thermal treatments for elemental powder mixtures were required to control the heat of formation for intermetallic compounds in advance.

Aluminum hydrates were prepared by precipitation method using Al2(SO4)3$.$18H2O as a starting material and NH4OH as precipitation agent. The phases of aluminum hydrate were changed from amorphous aluminum hydrate to pseudo-boehmite of AlOOH form and bayerite, gibbsite, hydragillite and norstrandite of Al(OH)3 form with increasing pH. As pH increased, agglomeration phenomena were reduced. Aluminum hydrates of AlOOH and Al(OH)3 form represented dehydration of structural water near 175$^{\circ}C$ and 385$^{\circ}C$, and 280$^{\circ}C$, respectively. As the ratio of Al(OH)3 to AlOOH increased, specific surface area was reduced.

This study aims to investigate the material properties of specimens made from pyrophyllite and pyrophyllite-aluminum mixed powders using high-speed, high-pressure dynamic compression technology. The aluminum powder exhibited a highly uniform particle size distribution ranging from 10 to 100 ㎛, whereas the pyrophyllite powder displayed four distinct particle size distributions: 0.1~1 ㎛, 1~10 ㎛, 80~100 ㎛, and 200~1,000 ㎛. Using high-speed, high-pressure dynamic compression technology with a drop time of approximately 0.34~0.4 seconds and a dynamic load of about 207 tonf, it was possible to fabricate pyrophyllite and pyrophyllite-aluminum mixed powder specimens with a volume of about 548 mm². The Shore hardness measurement results showed that specimen BG100 had an average of 43.7, BG90 had an average of 33.2, and BG85, BG80, BG75, and BG70 had an average of 31.0, indicating that the specimen with the least aluminum content exhibited the highest Shore hardness value. The thermogravimetric analysis revealed mass losses at two points: the first mass loss occurred at around 270℃ with a loss of approximately 1.45%, and the second mass loss occurred at around 600℃, where BG70 and BG80 showed a mass loss of about 2.53%, and BG75, BG85, and BG90 showed a mass loss of about 3.43%. Scanning electron microscopy analysis indicated that the microstructure of the specimens was similar regardless of the mixing ratio, with three elements-O, Si, and Al-being detected in all specimens. The mapping analysis of BG90 revealed an oxygen weight ratio of 50.80%, silicon weight ratio of 37.36%, and aluminum weight ratio of 11.85%. In the case of BG85, the results were 43.09% oxygen, 43.50% silicon, and 13.41% aluminum; for BG80, the results were 44.83% oxygen, 40.30% silicon, and 14.87% aluminum; for BG75, the results were 44.71% oxygen, 35.49% silicon, and 19.80% aluminum; and for BG70, the results were 34.95% oxygen, 35.73% silicon, and 29.32% aluminum.
