Hydroxyapatite powders were syntehsized by the reaction of Ca(NO3)2.4H2O and (NH4)2HPO4 in aqueous solution. The effect of the Ca/P mole ratio in the starting solution on the sintering of the powders and its microstructure was studied. When the Ca/P mole ratio in the starting solution was 1.69, the relative density of the sintered bodies was more than 95%. The sinterability was decreased as the Ca/P mole ratio in the starting solution was increased (Ca/P mole ratio >1.67). Hydroxyapatite sintered bodies obtained from the Ca/P mole ratio=1.69 had very excellent bending strength. The best bending strength was obtained at 110$0^{\circ}C$ and its value was 1220kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The average grain size was 0.277${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Most of sintered bodies were almost shown 100% hydroxyapatite phase. However, in case of the Ca/P mole ratio=1.64 hydroxyapatite was decomposed to $\alpha$-whitlockite above 120$0^{\circ}C$.

Al2O3 and 0.25wt% MgO-doped Al2O3 powders were made from the alcohol solution of Al(NO3)3.9H2O and Mg(NO3)2.6H2O by spray pyrolysis method. Each powder was prepared at 900 and 100$0^{\circ}C$. Powders prepared at 90$0^{\circ}C$ were amorphous phase, but prepared at 100$0^{\circ}C$ wre mainly ${\gamma}$-Al2O3 crystalline form. Particle size of the MgO-doped Al2O3 powders was in the range of 0.2-2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, but undooped powders shwoed comparatively wider range of particle size. All the powders prepared at 900 and 100$0^{\circ}C$ were transformed to $\alpha$-Al2O3 crystalline form by calcination at 110$0^{\circ}C$ for 1hr. Each powder was sintered at 1600, 1650 and 1$700^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs. MgO-doped Al2O3 body sintering at 1$650^{\circ}C$ showed 99% of relative density but undooped Al2O3 showed 95% of relative density, even sintered at higher temperature of 1$700^{\circ}C$.

GDC20($Ce_{0.8}Gd_{0.2}O_{1.9}$) powder was synthesized from Ce and Gd nitrate solutions using ammonium carbonate($(NH_4)_2CO_3$) as a precipitant. Attrition-milling of the powder, which had been calcined at $700^{\circ}C$ for 4 h, decreased an average particle size of 2.2 ${\mu}m$ to 0.5 ${\mu}m$. The milled powder consisted of nano-sized spherical primary particles. Due to the excellent sinterability of the powder, sintering of the powder compacts for 4 h showed relative densities of 80% at 1000 $^{\circ}C$ and 96.5% at $1200^{\circ}C$, respectively. Densification was found to almost complete at $1300^{\circ}C$, resulting in a dense and homogeneous microstructure with a relative density of 99.5%. The grains of ~0.2 ${\mu}m$ in size at $1200^{\circ}C$ grew to ~1 ${\mu}m$ in size at $1300^{\circ}C$ as a result of a rapid grain growth.

In this study, in order to develop low temperature sintering piezoelectric actuator, $Pb_{0.985}Bi_{0.01}(Mg_{1/2}W_{1/2})_{0.03}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.13}(Zr_{0.50},Ti_{0.50})_{0.84}$ (PMW-PNN-PZT) ceramic systems were fabricated using $CaCO_3-Li_2CO_3$, sintering aid through a post-annealing process. The sinterability of PMW-PNN-PZT ceranics was remarkably enhanced by liquid phase sintering of $CaCO_3$ and $Li_2CO_3$. But, it was confimed form the X-ray diffraction pattern that the secondary phase along grain boundaries, deteriorated the piezoelectric properties. The secondary phase along grain boundaries was significantly removed by annealing after sintering. The 0.2wt% $Li_2CO_3$-0.25wt% $CaCO_3$-added PMW-PNN-PZT ceramics post-annealed at 900$^{\circ}C$ for 90min exhibited the excellent electromechanical coupling factor($k_p$) of 63.3% and piezoelectric constant($d_{33}$) of 452pC/N, respectively, for multilayer piezoelectricactuatorapplication.

In this study, in odor to develop low temperature sintering multilayer piezoelectric actuator and ultrasonic vibrator, PMN-PNN-PZT ceramics were fabricated using $Li_2CO_3$ and $Na_2CO_3$ as sintering aids and their piezoelectric and dielectric characteristics were investigated according to the addition of dopant CuO and $Fe_2O_3$, respectively. The CuO added PMN-PNN-PZT ceramics improved mechanical quality factor Qm due to the acceptor doping effect. And also, $Fe_2O_3$ reacted as softner in this composition system in addition to the increase of grain size and sinterability. Taking into consideration electromechanical coupling factor kp of 0.62, dielectric constant $\varepsilon_r$, of 1275, Piezoelectric $d_{33}$ constant of 377[pC/N] and mechanical quality factor Qm of 975, it was concluded that the ceramics with the $Fe_2O_3$, added composition sintered at 900[$^{\circ}C$] were best for the multilayer piezoelectric actuator and ultrasonic vibrator application.

In this study, in order to develop multilayer piezoelectric transformer, PMN-PZT ceramics were fabricated according to PFW substitution using $Li_2CO_3-CaCO_3$ as sintering aids and their dielectric and piezoelectric characteristics were investigated. As increasing the amount of PFW substitution, density was slightly increased due to the increased sinterability. At the 1[mol%] PFW substituted PMN-PZT ceramic sintered at 950[$^{\circ}C$], density, dielectric constant $\varepsilon_r$, electromechanical coupling factor kp, mechanical quality factor Qm and piezoelectric $d_{33}$ constant showed the optimum value of 7.761[$g/cm^3$], 1251, 0.479, 1425 and 282[pC/N], respectively.

TiC ceramic particulate-reinforced titanium matrix composites were fabricated and the resultant densification, microstructure, and static and dynamic mechanical properties were studied. Comparing Ti with TiH₂powders as host materials for TiC ceramic reinforcement by pressureless vacuum sintering, TiH₂-started composites showed better sinterability and resistance to both elastic and plastic deformation than Ti-started ones. When TiH₂and TiH₂-45 vol.%TiC samples were hot pressed, TiH₂matrices transformed to alpha prime Ti and alpha Ti phase, respectively. It is interpreted that the diffusion of an alpha stabilizer carbon from TiC into the matrix is one of the plausible reasons far such a microstructural difference. The 0.2% offset yield strengths of the hot pressed TiH₂and TiH₂-45 vol.%TiC samples were 1008 and 1446 MPa, respectively, in a static compressive mode (strain rate of 1×$10^{-3}$/s). Dynamic compressive strengths of the samples were 1600 and 2060 MPa, respectively, at a strain rate of 4×10³/s.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the densification behavior and the corresponding microstructural evolution of tantalum and tantalum-tungsten alloy powders for explosively formed liners. The inherent inhomogeneous microstructures of tantalum manufactured by an ingot metallurgy might degrade the capability of the warhead. Therefore, to overcome such drawbacks, powder metallurgy was incorporated into the near-net shape process in this study. Spark plasma-sintered tantalum and its alloys with finer particle sizes exhibited higher densities and lower grain sizes. However, they were contaminated from the graphite mold during sintering. Higher compaction pressures in die and isostatic compaction techniques also enhanced the sinterability of the tantalum powders; however, a full densification could not be achieved. On the other hand, the powders exhibited full densification after being subjected to hot isostatic pressing over two times. Consequently, it was found that the hot isostatic-pressed tantalum might exhibit a lower grain size and a higher density as compared to those obtained in previous studies.

The doped-ceria is a strong candidate material for an intermediate temperature SOFC. However, the mechanical strength and the magnitude of electrical conductivity need to be increased at low sintering temperature. In this study, to improve both properties, $1at\% $ of Mg, Ca, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ga, and Zr were added to the GDC20 ($20at\%$ Gd-doped Ceria) and sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$ that is $250^{\circ}C$ lower than $1600^{\circ}C$. With addition, the relative density of the sintered sample increased. Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ga doped-GDC20 showed high relative density over $92\%$. Among them, Ga doped-GDC20 showed the most improved sinterability. The conductivity of doped­GDC20 increased by $\~10$ times at $300\~700^{\circ}C$.

Lead free $(Na_{0.5}K_{0.47}Cd_x)NbO_3$ ceramics (x=0.015-0.005) were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide route. The effects of CdO addition on the sintering, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of the samples were examined. The addition of CdO greatly enhanced the sinterability of ceramics and the sample has a lower dielectric loss. The $k_p\;and\;Q_m$ of the samples with 0.02 mol CdO addition are 0.35 and 125, respectively, The $(Na,K)NbO_3$ ceramics show a large degradation of $k_p$ due to the deliquescence when exposed to humidity, while the $(Na,K,Cd)NbO_3$ ceramics have no a significant degradation of it.
