Co-based amorphous powder was produced by a new atomization process "Spinning Water Atomization Process (SWAP)", having rapid super-cooling rate. The composition of the alloys was ($(Co_{0.95}Fe_{0.05})_{1-x}Cr_x$)$_{75}Si_{15}B_{10}$ (x=0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075). The powders became the amorphous state even if particle size was up to about $500{\mu}m$. The coercive force of powders was about 0.35 - 0.7 Oe. Furthermore, Co-based amorphous powder cores with glass binders were made by cold-pressing and sintering methods. The initial permeability of the core in the frequency range up to 100 kHz was about 110, and the core loss at 100 kHz for Bm = 0.1 T was $350kW/m^3$.

Transparent bulletproof windows play an important role in the munitions industry. The thickness of bulletproof windows including soda-lime silicate(SLS) glass, polyvinyl butyral, poly urethane, main defense(200MD), and safety film was reduced from 40mm to 29mm by adjustment of SLS glass laminated array. Borosilicate glasses generally have lower surface density and more excellent mechanical properties than SLS glass. Borosilicate glass was strengthened by ion exchange in the $KNO_3$ powder. The maximum mechanical properties were observed at $550^{\circ}C$ for 10min. The Vickers hardness, fracture toughness and 3-point bending strength of ion exchanged samples were about $775kg/mm^2$, $1.91MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ and 764MPa each, which are about 27%, 149% and 249% higher than parent borosilicate glass, respectively. The penetration depth of K+ ion at $550^{\circ}C$ for 10min was $59.8{\mu}m$. As a result, the transparent bulletproof windows were predicted to be more lightweight by ion exchange of borosilicate glass. If the SLS glass for bulletproof windows is replaced by ion exchanged borosilicate glass, the bulletproof windows can be expected to be lightweight and thinner.

We investigate the effects of Yb2O3 and calcium aluminosilicate (CAS) glass as sintering additives on the sintering behavior of AlN. The AlN specimens are sintered at temperatures between 1700℃ and 1900℃ for 2 h in a nitrogen atmosphere. When the Yb2O3 content is low (within 3 wt.%), an isolated shape of secondary phase is observed at the AlN grain boundary. In contrast, when 3 wt.% Yb2O3 and 1 wt.% CAS glass are added, a continuous secondary phase is formed at the AlN grain boundary. The thermal conductivity decreases when the CAS glass is added, but the sintering density does not decrease. In particular, when 10 wt.% Yb2O3 and 1 wt.% CAS glass are added to AlN, the flexural strength is the highest, at 463 MPa. These results are considered to be influenced by changes in the microstructure of the secondary phase of AlN.

In this study, we evaluated the feasibility and performance of LCD waste glass as a replacement for cement by using LCD waste glass powder which is generated from manufacturing process due to development of LCD industry. Experiments were carried out by replacing 10% and 20% cement of LCD waste glass with particle size of $12{\mu}m$ of LCD waste glass with OPC and particle size of $5{\mu}m$, respectively. Through experiments, basic properties, mechanical properties and durability of concrete were evaluated. Experimental results show that the compressive strength is high at 10% replacement ratio compared to 20%. The lower the particle size, the higher the strength. The durability test evaluated the chloride penetration performance through the chloride ion diffusion coefficient. The higher the substitution rate and the smaller the particle size, the lower the chloride ion diffusion coefficient and the better the OPC than the all substitution rate. As a result, LCD waste glass concrete with low granularity and proper replacement ratio is considered to be advantageous for durability under salt environment.

The purpose of this study was to process bio-active glass ceramic composite, reinforced with sapphire fibers, by hot press. Also to study the interface of the matrix and the sapphire fiber, and the mechanical properties. Glass raw materials melted in Pt crucible at 1300$^{\circ}C$ during 3.5 hours. The melt was crushed in ball mill and then crushed material, ground and sieved to $<40{\beta}{\mu}m$. Sapphire fibers cut (30mm) and aligned. Powder and fibers hot pressed. The micrographs show good bonding between the matrix and the fiber and no porosity in the glass matrix. This means ideal fracture phenomena. Glass is fractured before the fiber. This is indication of good fracture strength. EDXS showing aluminum rich phase and crystalline phase. Bright field image of the matrix showing crystalline phase. Also diffraction pattern of TEM showing the crystalline phase and more than one phase. Strength of the samples was determined by 3 point bend testing. Strength of the 10vol% sample was approximately 69MPa, while strength of the control sample is 35MPa. Conclusions through this study as follow: 1. Micrographs show no porosity in the glass matrix and the interface. 2. The interface between the fiber and the glass matrix show no gaps. 3. Fracture of the glass indicates characteristic fiber-matrix separation. 4. Presence of crystalline phase at high processing temperature. 5. Sapphire is compatible with bioactive glass.

A quartz glass crucible is the essential material for manufacturing silicon ingots such as semiconductors and solar cells. Quartz glass crucibles for semiconductors and solar cells are made similar, but differ in surface purity, structure and durability. Recently, ultra high purity synthetic glass crucibles for semiconductors have become more important due to foreign problems. In Korea, it has succeeded in producing 28-inch quartz glass crucibles through the past 10 years. However, 32-inch synthetic quartz glass for the production of silicon ingots for semiconductors is not up to the level of advanced technology, and the technology gap is expected to be 2 to 3 years. In order to overcome these technological gaps and localize synthetic quartz glass ware, close cooperation between production companies and demand companies and localization of synthetic quartz glass powder must also be made. In addition, if government support can be added, faster results can be expected.

The effects of CeO2 on the properties of cordierite-based glass-ceramics and its applicability to low firing temperature substrate were examined. Glass-ceramics were prepared by sintering the glass powder compacts at 900~100$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 h. Density, bending strength, dielectric constant and thermal expansion coefficient of the glass-ceramics were measured as functions of CeO2 contents and sintering temperatures. By adding CeO2, dense glass-ceramics were obtained below 100$0^{\circ}C$. dielectric constant and bending strength were more dependent on the porosity of glass-ceramics containing 5 wt% CeO2, sintered at 100$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 h, were as follows; relative density is 95.3%, bending strength is 178$\pm$11 MPa, dielectric constant is 4.98$\pm$0.20 (at 1 MHz) and thermal expansion coefficient is 33.7$\times$10-7/$^{\circ}C$. Therefore, the glass-ceramics containing 5 wt% CeO2 appeared to be suitable for low firing temperature substrate of electronic devices.

The effect of glass-frit size on microstructural evolution and electrical resistance of conductive silver paste was investigated. Silver paste was prepared by mixing 70 wt% commercial silver powder with $1.6{\mu}m$, 3 wt% Bi based glass-frit and 27 wt% organic vehicle. Two different sizes of glass-frit were obtained by ball-milling of commercial glass-frit ($3{\mu}m$) for 3 and 5 days, which had an average particle size of 1.0 and $0.5{\mu}m$. The smaller glass-frit was melt at low sintered temperature and rapidly spread between the silver particles, which is induced the dense networking among silver particles and strong adhesiveness to $Al_2O_3$ substrate. The silver film with smaller glass-frit sintered at $500^{\circ}C$ showed the small pore size and low porosity resulting in low electrical resistivity of $4{\mu}{\Omega}cm$.

The average life span is over 80 years of age, and various biomaterials have being studied. Many research institutes and companies around the world have been commercializing bioactive glass through R&D, however, there is not much research in Korea. Most bioactive glass is applied to bone regeneration in powder form due to its excellent bio-compatibility. Recently, new applications such as scaffolds for tissue engineering and nerve regeneration have been found in composite form. The global market size is not as large as US $ 556 million in 2019, but the growth rate is very high at a CAGR of 14.35 %. This field is waiting for the challenge of new researchers.
