Both in a hydrogen stream and in a nitrogen stream, particle shapes o f the products were similar. The products obtained by heating up to 590 °C and up to 650 °C were sphere-like particles consisted of plate-like ones, and particle size was in a range of 3-5 μm. The products obtained by heating up to 810 °C were sphere-like particles, on which granular ones formed.
S-O bonding states of the products obtained by heating up to 590 °C were similar. In the product obtained by heating up to 650 °C in a hydrogen stream, more kinds of S-O bonding states existed than that in the products obtained in a nitrogen stream. It was found that similar S-O bonding states of the products were formed again at 810 °C.

Carbon powders dispersed uniformly with cobaltferrite particles were successfully synthesized by pressure pyrolysis of vinylferrocene-cobaltocene derivative-divinylbenzene in the Presence of water below 650 °C at 125 MPa with their high yield and control of morphology of resultant carbon. The amount of cobaltferrite decreased markedly in the carbon matrix formed at 700 °C, since cobaltferrite was reduced to cobalt oxide and wustite by excess carbon. The size of carbon particles was about O.5 μm in diameter at 600 °C and 2.0 μm at 700 °C. The morphology of carbon was dependent upon the pyrolysis temperature and the concentration of metal in a starting copolymer. The morphology of carbon changed from coalescing polyhedra to spherulites with increasing pyrolysis temperature from 600 °C to 700 °C. The size of metal oxide particles which were finely dispersed in carbon synthesized at 600 °C was about 30 nm, which increased with pyrolysis temperature. The saturation magnetization and the coercive force of cobaltferrite-dispersed carbon prepared at 600 °C and 125 MPa were 4.8 emu/g and 2 k0e, respectively.

Polycarbosilane (PC) has been used as precursor for silicon carbide fiber. Industrially, the fiber is produced by heat-treatment of the melt-spun and cured PC fiber. PC fiber is cured by oxidation, so the SiC fiber properties are influenced enormously by oxygen introduced, especially at high temperature. Clarification of the oxidation mechanism of PC makes possible to controll the high temperature properties of the SiC fiber.

2 by many researchers. In the present work, the difference between two reducing methods, namely, reducing anatase in H
2 atmosphere and reducing anatase in ethanol atmosphere has been studied. The magnetic properties have been studied by a magnetization meter and by an ESR instrument. The results seem to indicate that in H
2 atmosphere O
2-ion in the lattice is converted to OH
- and then to an anion vacancy while in ethanol atmosphere it is converted to
-OEt, and then to ·OEt. The relation between the concentration of the paramagnetic species and the photocatalytic activities of these two differently treated catalysts has shown that in the ehtanol treated catalyst those two properties are in a parallel relation while in the H
2 treated catalyst those two properties are in a reverse relation.

The eucryptite ceramics sintered at 1000 °C had flextural strength of about 100 MPa. The coefficient of thermal expansion of the ceramics can agree with the theoretical value (-3 x 10
-7/°C). In the spodumene composition, single phase ceramics can be sintered at 1200 °C. The spodumene ceramics showed low thermal expansion (7 x 10

2 gel without cracks was obtained by using the solution containing ZrBu of O.05 M and with DEG/ZrBu ratio of 2. In the cases what the DEG/ZrBu ratio was above and below 2, the gel film obtained showed faults, such as cracking or peeling. From the results by weight and viscosity changes of the sol (solution)due to gelation (Fig.4) and thermal analysis of gel film(Fig.5), the gelation in air for 24hours and stepwise heating at 90 and 200 °C for 1 hour, respectively, were determined.

Alumina powders were prepared through a coprecipitation route using either aqueous ammonia or urea as a precipitant into an aqueous solution containing Lboehmite sols and b arium nitrate. The precipitates thus prepared were dried and calcined at various temperatures for 5 h and subjected to surface area measurements.
Thermal resistance of alumina was found to be significantly improved by the addition of barium ions, evaluated by measuring the surface area of barium-added alumina calcined at 1200 °C for 5 h. An optimum amount of barium ions added to alumina was estimated to b e 0.14 mole for a mole of alumina prepared using aqueous ammonia as a precipitant; O.14 mole of Ba for a mole of alumina is just the stoichiometric ratio for the formation of BaO·6Al
2O
3 f rom BaO and alumina. While for alumina prepared using urea, only 0.03 mole of Ba ions was reqired to be an optimum amount to be added to a mole of alumina, suggesting that Ba ions cover the surface of boehmite sols during coprecipitation by urea.
Consequently, it is informed that the study on the structures and proper ties of precipitates is of fundamental importance for a preparation of functional solids.

Reaction of fine-particle gibbsite in glycol under the spontaneous vapor pressure of the glycol (glycothermal treatment) yields a glycol derivative of boehmite (Ref.5). In this paper, the mechanisms of this reaction were explored. With an increase in the particle size of gibbsite, the yield of the boehmite derivative decreased and the yield of well-crystallized boehmite and the amount of unreacted gibbsite increased (Table 2). Autocatalytic nature was observed during the course of the reaction (Figs.2 and 3). Addition of a small amount of water facilitated the formation of the glycol derivative of boehmite. A honeycomb like texture composed of plate-like crystals of the boehmite derivative was developed on the exterior of the particle when coarse gibbsite was used, whereas the glycothermal treatment of fine-particle gibbsite yielded bulky aggregates composed of honeycomb-like texture, combining the original particles (Figs.4-6). These results suggest that aluminum hydroxide was dissolved into a mixture of glycol and water formed by partial dehydration of gibbsite followed by ligand exchange between the water molecule in the coordination site of aluminum and the glycol molecule and then crystallization of the glycol derivative of boehmite. Formation of boehmite was interpreted by the intra-particle hydrothermal reaction originally proposed by de Boer et al. for the formation of boehmite during the thermal dehydration of gibbsite. A chimney-like structure composed of honeycomb-like texture of the glycol derivative of boehmite was found in the product from coarse gibbsite (Fig.7). This structure may have been formed when closed pore filled with water, where the intraparticle hydrothermal reaction took place, reached to the surface of the particle and a large amount of water together with aluminum species was released from the pore into the bulk solvent.

CP gel was more homogeneous than MS gel. Ball-milling MS gel for 3 h increased its homogeneity only slightly. However, the homogeneity increased up to that of CP on subsequent heating at the temperature as low as 483 K. This kind of thermal homogenization did not take place for the unground MS gel. Grinding of MS gel brought about the amorphization of small crystallites and the suppression of Pb evaporation. These suggest the ionic migration and the formation of Pb-O-Ti bonds during mechanical activation.

The relationship between the optical emission spectra and the deposition behavior on the cathode surface was investigated., The emission intensity of hydrogen atoms in the H
2-CH
4 glow discharge was strongly observed, and the deposited carbon films in this plasma contained many hydrogen atoms bonding chemically with carbon atoms. Thus, it was found that the composition of the deposited carbon films was strongly related to the chemical species in the glow plasma. In the Ar-CH
4 glow discharge, however, the emission intensities decreased in the CH
4 % range above 1.5 %. This is probably because the metastable argon atoms quenched by CH
4 molecules and the discharge characteristics largely changed. In the case of H

4 glow discharge, the emission intensity ratio CH 431.4/H I 656.3 increased with an increase of the deposited carbon. Therefore, it is possible to estimate the quantity of the deposited carbon by monitoring the emission intensity ratio.

Sputtered films of the SiO
2-MgO system were prepared by RF-sputtering method. The state of the films, crystalline or amorphous, was determined using X-ray diffraction and thin film X-ray diffraction methods. The amorphous region was in the range MgO = 0-82 mol% when sputtered at 100 W for a duration of 25 h, and MgO = 0-90 mol% when sputtered at 100 W for a duration of 10-30 min. It turned out that the amorphous region was reduced with increasing sputtering time, film thickness and sputtering power. It was inferred that the cooling ability of the substrate becomes poorer as the film thickness increases with time, and that the substrate temperature rises with higher sputtering power. The fact that the amorphous region obtained by the sputtering method is wider than that obtained by the melt-quenching method was speculated due to a striking cooling ability of the sputtering method compared wit h that of the melt quenching method.

-1 (method a) and direct immersion into a furnace kept at 500 °C (method b). Electrical resistivity measurements (Figs.3 and 4) evidenced that continuous CdO thin films which were stable below 400 °C were obtained by the pyrolysis of the LB films of 200 and 300 monolayers by method b but not by the pyrolysis of the LB films of 100monolayers. On the other hand, the pyrolysis of the LB films of 200 monolayers by method a resulted in the formation of a discrete CdO (Fig.3). The results demonstrate that metalcontaining LB films are converted into continuous thin films of the corresponding metal oxides by the pyrolysis when the number of layers of LB films and the pyrolysis condition are well controlled.

This investigation is to provide a method which can yield magadiite under lower concentration of NaOH and for shorter reaction time compared with the conventional methods for the synthesis of magadiite. Little magadiite was obtained at 120 °C and 170 °C from the starting materials with the molar composition of SiO
2: NaOH: H
2O = 1: 0.23: 18.5 and 1: 0.17: 18.5, respectively. But, the addition of 1-butanol was very effective for the formation of magadiite, especially at the low reaction temperature and low concentration of NaOH. With the addition of 1.3 molar 1-butanol to the starting materials, magadiite was synthesized as a single phase at 120 °C for 7 d and at 170 °C for 18 h.

The Vickers hardness and the compressive strength of the glass-ceramics were 3 GPa and 460 MPa (Fig.6). The fracture toughness K
IC was 2.5 ± O.3 MPa·m

Aluminium nitride poWders were synthesized by the spark discharge method in liquid ammonia at 0-130 °C and 2.5-11 kV of the spark discharge voltage using aluminium pellets as starting material. The crystallite size and the grain size of MN were 29-43 nm and 4.5-8.7 μm, respectively. Significant amount of Al coexisted with AlN. The content of A1N increased with decreasing the size of aluminium pellet and with rising the temperature of liquid ammonia. By calcining the powder in nitrogen atmosphere at 900-1200 °C Al coexisted with AlN could be converted to AlN without coagulation of the powder.

In the previous work, a finely dispersed TiB
2 has been synthesized by combustion synthesis with a powder mixture of Ti, B and Al in the molar ratio of 1: 4: 1, and the grain size of the synthesized TiB
2 is <0.5 μm, which is much smaller than that obtained from combustion synthesis with a powder mixture of Ti, B and Al in the molar ratio of 1: (n+2): 0 or 1: 2: n (n=0, 1, 2 or 3).
In order to make clear the mechanism of formation of such a finely dispersed TiB
2 particle, the measurement of the temperature hysteresis and the heat of formation during the combustion synthesis are carried out for various Ti-B-Al systems in the present work. As a result, the cooling rate in the process of combustion synthesis with the Ti+4 B+Al powder mixture is found to be much smaller than that with the Ti+2 B+2 Al or the Ti1+5 B one. The heat of formation is a little higher in the former compared to the latter because of formation of A1B
12. Therefore, it is considered taht the reaction of Al-B system at high temperature would proceed and supply a little excess heat to the reaction system behind the main combustion front following the reaction of Ti-B system, resulting in the increase of TiB
2 nucleation ratio.
As a result of a hot-pressing test of the present combustion synthesized powders, it is confirmed that the sintered composite of Ti+4 B-FA1 system is superior to those obtained from other systems.

Surface modification of silica induced by CF
4 plasma treatment and subsequent air exposure has been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), electron spin resonance (ESR) and thermally stimulated exoelectron emission (TSEE). Species such as SiF, CF
x. and CO= were formed on the surface. A large ESR signal was observed, and the intensity of the signal increased with increasing treatment time in the same manner as the F/Si atomic ratio increased. The signal intensity decreased and became stabilized with standing time in air just as the fluorine content decreased. The ESR signal may be attributed to a peroxy radical like CFOO·formed by a post reaction of the CF
x radicals on the surface with atmospheric oxygen. For the surface evacuated after the plasma treatment the signal due to the peroxy radical was not observed. The TSEE glow curve exhibited a broad peak emission at ∼250 °C. The intensity of the emission increased and then became almost constant with treatment time. This peak is closely associated with the introduction of fluorine on the surface.

2based glass which were soaked in a simulated body fluid at 36.5 °C, and then reimmersed into an aqueous solution with ion concenteations 1.5 times those of the simulated body fluid at 36.5 °C. An uniform layer of an apatite similar to the bone mineral was formed on all th e examined substrates. The thickness of the layer increased at a rate of 1.7 μm/d. This kind of biomimetic process might be useful for obtaining highly bioactive composites with mechanical properties close to those of the natural bone.

TiN combustion synthesis is investigated through a self-propagating reaction of titanium powder compacts of various packing density (40%, to 60% theoretical one) in liquid nitrogen under atmospheric pressure. By changing the position of ignition point, it is confirmed that the upward combustion propagation is more effective for getting higher conversion ratio than the downward one. It is considered that both the heat and evolved nitrogen gas propagate upward in the case of upward reaction propagation, resulting in higher TiN conversion ratio compared to the downward one. As a result of combustion synthesis of Ti compacts added with TiN powders, almost 90% of the TiN content can be attained with the addition of 45mol%, which is the composition to generate the heat of reaction close to the solid-side limits at the melting point of TiN.
