Aluminium silicate gels were prepared by gel-technique using Al(OH)3 and TEOS as starting materials. Aluminium silicate gel as formed mullite at 120$0^{\circ}C$. From this method, homogeneous mullite was formed available needle-like shaped and close compacted. As excess SiO2 mullite composition, the needle-like shaped crystal, size according to increased with SiO2, was increased from 3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 7${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ but liquid phase did not affect the formation of needle-like shaped mullite. As excess Al2O3 mullite composition, the needle-shape mullite crystal could not be detected because Al2O3 acted as chunky behavior.

ZrO2/Al2O3-Mullite composites were prepared by infiltration of the silica sol to the porous ZrO2/Al2O3 bodies. The porous ZrO2/Al2O3 bodies for infiltration were fabricated using ZrO2 (20wt%)/Al2O3 composite powders synthesized by the emulsion-hot kerosene drying method. The preparation of silica sols was conducted by the hydrolysis-peptization of an alcoholic TEOS solution. When ZrO2/Al2O3-Mullite and ZrO2/Al2O3 composites were sintered at 1$650^{\circ}C$ for 4 hrs, both of them showed an excellent sinterability. As the amount of mullite added in the composites increased, the ratio of the tetragonal phase of zirconia to the monoclinic phase at the room temperature became higher. It was known that values of the fracture toughness of the ZrO2/Al2O3-Mullite composites were about 5.48 MPa.m1/2 much larger than that of the ZrO2/Al2O3 system.

Effect of catalysts, which was catalyzed by acid(HCl and HNO3) and base(NH4OH), on characteristics of the mullite powders prepared by sol-gel methdo wa sinvestigated by XRD, TGA, SEm AND BET. As a result, weight loss as a function of catalysts was in order of HCl=32.6%>HNO3=25.44%>Non=24.0%>NH4OH=22.5%. The mullite powder dried at 100$^{\circ}C$ appeared spherical shape in acid catalyst and different shape in base catalyst, but sintering powder at 1400$^{\circ}C$ appeared very fine particle of 0.05∼0.1$\mu\textrm{m}$ regardless of catalysts. In all cae, the pore quantity, which was capable to adsoprtion, was decreased with increasing temperature. In base catalyst, no change of special surface area in mullite appeared.

In this study, we attempted to recycle the fly ash as a mullite whisker with addition of $Al_{2}O_{3}$ to obtain the high yield of mullite whisker. During the reaction process, mullite whisker was formed with the reaction of amorphous $\alpha$-Cristobalite and Anorthite above $1350^{\circ}C$. With increasing the heat treatment temperature and time, the mean length and aspect ratio of mullite whiskers was gradually increased.

A new technique to fabricate complex-shaped mullite has been developed through gelcasting without organic binder. The suspension of a commercial mullite powder and boehmite-SiO2 sol as binder was elecrtrosterically stabilized. Ammonium polymetharylyate was employed as a dispersant for the electrosteric stabilization. Complex-shaped bodies were made through casting and gelation at room temperature. The green bodies were dried at a temperature of 30$^{\circ}C$ and relative humidity of 98% without crack development. The dried bodies were then pressureless-sintered at 1650$^{\circ}C$ for 2 h to get a relative density of 98% The Vickers hardness and 4-point flexural strength of sintered parts were 11.0 GPa and 150MPa respectively which are similar to those of commercially available sintered mullite.

Mullite-spinel-zirconia composites were prepared by reaction sintering of calcined alumina and magnesia, and zircon powders. The influence of calcining temperature on densification processes and on mechaical properties of subsequently sintered compacts was investigated. The mullite was formed by the reaction of $\alpha$-Al2O3 and amorphous SiO2 at firing temperatures over 141$0^{\circ}C$. The mullitization proceeded more rapidly in the specimen calcined at 110$0^{\circ}C$ than at either 120$0^{\circ}C$ or 130$0^{\circ}C$. Microstructures before and after the mullitization (or mullite dissociation) showed different morphologies, and their effects on mechanical properties were significant. The flexural strength and fracture toughness of the specimen calcined at 130$0^{\circ}C$ and subsequently fired at 145$0^{\circ}C$ were 316 MPa and 4.2Mpa.m1/2, respectively.

Mullite powders were synthesized from the common solution of aluminum sulfate and sodium silicate solutions by the emulsion-hot kerosene technique. The reaction temperature and mechanism for mullitization and the characteristics of synthesized mullite powders were investigated. The effect of Na components introduced from sodium silicate solution on the physical property and microstructure of sintered mullite was also examined. It was proved that mullites were formed at 75$0^{\circ}C$ through the reaction mechanism of Na2O.2.2SiO2＋3.3Al2(SO4)3longrightarrow1.1(3Al2O3.2SiO2)＋Na2SO4＋8.9SO3. Synthetic mullite powders consisted of the compositiion of 3Al2O3.2SiO2 and showed highly agglomeration of hollow spherical particles of 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ diameter. The density and fracture toughness of sintered mullites were somewhat reduced because of the effect of a very small amount of residual Na components.
