Ni-YSZ 음극의 미세구조와 임피던스특성에 미치는 YSZ 입자크기 및 소결온도의 영향을 고찰하였다. 0.3~0.6$\mu\textrm{m}$의 미세한 NiO 분말을 사용할 경우에는 NiO 분말과 크기가 비슷한 미세한 YSZ 분말(TZ8Y, 0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$)을 첨가했을 때 NiO의 입성장을 억제하는 효과가 가장 크고 환원후 Ni의 입자크기를 미세하게 유지할 수 있는 미세구조를 형성하였다. 또한 미세한 YSZ 분말 (TZ8Y, 0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$)과 조대한 YSZ 분말(FYT13.0, 2$\mu\textrm{m}$)의 혼합비를 달리하여 후막을 제조하였을 때에 TZ8Y 분말만 첨가한 조성이 가장 낮은 분극 저항을 나타내었다. 한편 소결온도는 삼상계면의 양과 분극저항에 영향을 주었으며, 140$0^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 시편의 분극저항이 가장 낮은 값을 나타내었다.

The sintering behavior of LTCC (low temperature cofired ceramics) chip couplers was investigated in relation with Ag diffusion at the interface of glass ceramic substrate-Ag electrode. Sintering temperature was in the range of 825$^{\circ}C$-975$^{\circ}C$. The commercial green sheet and silver electrode were used. Below 875$^{\circ}C$ the diffusion of the Ag ion into the substrate and the penetration of glassy phases into the electrode occurred due to an increase of fluidity. Thus the lectrode line was severely deformed and damaged. At 975$^{\circ}C$ the transformation of crystalline phases into glassy phases and the melting of the Ag electrode resulted in the diffusion of the considerable amount of Ag ions.

The effects of MnO2 on the microstructure and dielectric properties of Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3 ceramics prepared by KCl-NaCl molten salt synthesis(MSS) method have been investigated. As the amount of MnO2 increased up to 0.25wt%, the density increased and the grain size decreased, while above 0.25wt%, the density decreased with the grain growth. Dielectric constant increased with increasing the amount of MnO2, and dielectric loss decreased up to 0.25wt% and then increased. This is due to the compensation effect by the substitution of Mn4+ to Fe3+ and the appearance of the second phase.

This study investigate changes in mechanical behaviors such as indentation load-displacement and hardness of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) using cycling of thermal shock test. Relatively dense and porous TBCs on nickel-based bondcoat/super alloy are prepared using different starting granules, 204C-NS and 204NS commercial powers, and the effect of double layers of 204C-NS on 204NS and 204NS on 204C-NS are investigated. The highest temperature applied during thermal shock test is $1100^{\circ}C$ and the maximum number of cycles is 1,200. The results indicate that bilayered TBC showed a relatively mechanically resistant property during thermal shock cycles and that the mechanical behavior is influenced by the microstructure of TBCs by exposure to high temperature during tests or different starting granules.

The oxidizer-induced corrosion state and microstructure of surface passive metal-oxide layer greatly influenced on the removal rate of tungsten film according to the slurry chemical composition of different mixed oxidizers. In this paper, the actual polishing mechanism and pH-potential equilibrium diagram obtained from potentiodynamic polarization curve were electrochemically compared. An electrochemical corrosion effect implies that slurries with the highest removal rate (RR) have the high dissolution rate.

The magnetisation behaviour of polycrystalline permalloy/copper multilayers with mixed antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic coupling was investigated as function of temperature. The results are discussed in a framework of a realistic model of anitferromagnetically coupled layers connected by ferromagnetic pinholes. A microstructure of pinholes (their density and dimensions) was varied either by a proper annealing treatment or by choosing samples with various Cu spacer thicknesses. It was demonstrated that the temperature changes of the net magnetic moment measured in a magnetic field smaller than the saturation field was strongly affected by the composition of the pinholes, their density, cross-sectional area and their lengths.

A new kind of magnetic rubber, Fe dispersed ethylene propylene monomer (EPM), was prepared by a conventional technique using a two roll mill. The magnetic fillers of Fe-nanoparicles were coated by low density polyethylene (LDPE). The purpose of surface treatment of nanoparticles by LDPE is to enhance wettability and lubricancy of the fillers in a polymer matrix. The mechanical strength and microstructure of the magnetic rubber were characterized by tensile strength test and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results revealed that the Fe nanoparticles were relatively well dispersed in an EPM matrix. It was found that the nano- Fe dispersed magnetic rubber showed higher coercivity and tensile strength than those of micron- Fe dispersed one.

MAO ceramic coatings were prepared on AZ61 magnesium alloy for various processing times ranging from 5 to 60 min, in an electrolyte solution based on silicate-fluoride. The mechanical, electrochemical and, microstructural properties and the phase compositions of the coating layers were investigated. In this work, unlike previous studies, coatings with high amounts of the $Mag_2SiO_4$ phase were formed which contained small amounts of MgO and $MgF_2$ at a processing condition of 30 min. A microstructural analysis revealed that the porosity of the coatings was reduced considerably with an increase in the processing time, together with a change in the pore geometry from an irregular to a spherical shape. Potentiodynamic polarization and mechanical testing results showed that the coatings acquired after a processing time of 30 min were superior to all of the others.

Effect of Li2O.4B2O3 frit addition on microstructural and thermal expansion behaviour of the $\beta$-spodumene ceramics made from kaolinite was investigated. With 2.0~4.0 wt% frit addition, the densification by liquid phase sintering caused low water absorption below 3% and enhancement of beding strength. As the amount of frit addition was increased, thermal expansion coefficient was increased to large scale, but in 2 wt% frit addition, its thermal expansion coefficient was constrained to 1.92$\times$10-6$^{\circ}C$-1.

Silicon nitride ceramics with highly oriented microstructure were prepared by tape casting a slurry containing 5 wt% of the silicon nitride whiskers. The whiskers were aligned in the casting direction and worked as seeds for the grain growth. The anisotropy was observed from the sintering shrinkage, Vickers indentation crack lengths, and XRD patterns. The cracks were much longer on the surface normal to the aligned grains than on the tape casting surface where the lateral cracks were also observed. The effect of sintering additives and the annealing treatment on the indentation crack length was examined. The sample with higher silica content had longer cracks than the one with lower silica content. The crack length anisotropy increased after annealing at 2123K.
