$Al_2$$O_3$ coatings were deposited on M2 high speed steels by the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) process, using a gas mixture of AlC1$_3$, $H_2$, $CO_2$ and Ar $Al_2$$O_3$ coatings had interference color and showed amorphous phase. $A1_2$X$A1_3$/($Ti_{0.5}$ /$Al_{0.5}$ )N double layer coatings were produced in the sequence of substrate $NH_3$ plasma pretreatment, ($Ti_{0.5}$$Al_{0.5}$)N depoition process, $Al_2$$O_3$ deposition process. $Al_2$ $O_3$/( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N double layer coatings showed NaCl structure in ( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N layer and amorphous phase in A1$_2$ $O_3$ layer. It was shown that $Al_2$ $O_3$ columns continuously grew onto ( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N columns. ( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N single coating and $Al_2$ $O_3$/( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N double layer coating were oxidized at $700^{\circ}C$, 80$0^{\circ}C$, 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 1hr, 3hr in atmosphere. At 80$0^{\circ}C$, single layer coatings were oxidized, which were examined substrate oxide particle. But $Al_2$ $O_3$/ ( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N double layer coatings maintained the asdeposited state. Therefore, $Al_2$ $O_3$/ ( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N double layer coatings have moreexcellent oxidation resistance than ( $Ti_{0.5}$A $l_{0.5}$)N single layer coatings.X> 0.5/)N single layer coatings.s.

Halide-activated pack cementation was utilized to deposit B-doped silicide coating. The pack powders were consisted of $3Wt.c/oNH_4Cl$, 7Wt.c/oSi, $90Wt.c/oAl_2O_3+TiB_2$. B-doped silicide coating was consisted of two layers, an outer layer of $NbSi_2$ and an inner layer of $Nb_5Si_3$. Isothermal oxidation resistance of B-doped silicide coating was tested at $1250^{\circ}C$ in static air. B-doped silicide coating had excellent oxidation resistance, because continuous $SiO_2$ scale which serves as obstacle of oxygen diffusion was formed after oxidation.

The electrochemical corrosion behaviors of 304 stainless steels (STSs) with various coatings (organic coating and dry coating) were examined, and their applicability as bipolar plates in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) was validated. The results showed that the organic-coated samples had a significant decrease in anodic and cathodic current density compared to the uncoated sample. However, an increase in carbon black content in the organic coating or additional heat treatment at 700 ℃ resulted in a decrease in corrosion resistance. In addition, improvements in corrosion resistance achieved by adding TiO₂ powder to the organic coating were found to be limited. In contrast, dry coating with TiC and CrC exhibited higher corrosion potential, significantly lower current density, and reduced contact resistance compared to the organic coatings. Notably, the TiC-coated sample showed a comparatively lower current density and more stable behavior than the CrC-coated sample. Based on a series of experimental results, a thin TiC coating without defects is proposed as a promising surface treatment strategy for STS bipolar plates in PEMFC.

In this study, we prepared hybrid composites by using low temperature sol-gel process for transparent and hard coating film. The hybrid composites consist of $ZrO_2/TiO_2/organosilane$, of which organosilane was introduced 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate due to the role of a photocurable ceramic material for low temperature process. The ceramic composites with various composition ratios were coated on a polycarbonate substrate using a sol-gel process of low temperature process, and characterized optical and mechanical properties of coated thin film. The transparencies of coated thin films were 97.5 % or more, and the pencil hardness were 9H or more. In the case of the ZTS-2-1, the nano-indentation hardness was measured at the highest value of 1.14 GPa.

A new binder-free $TiO_{2}$ paste was prepared by common ion applying effect, enabling low temperature fabrication required for flexible solar cells. The binder-free and high viscosity $TiO_{2}$ coating solution was produced by adding 7.5% aniline in $TiO_{2}$ colloid solution obtained from the high pressure water-heat response method. The resulting pastes had high level of viscosities proper for optimal coating and thus revealed excellent performances in terms of thickness uniformity and I-V characteristics.

Self-cleaning and photocatalytic $TiO_2$ thin films were prepared by a facile sol-gel method followed by spin coating using peroxo titanic acid as a precursor. The as-prepared thin films were heated at low temperature($110^{\circ}C$) and high temperature ($400^{\circ}C$). Thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), Field-emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM), UV-Visible spectroscopy and water contact angle measurement. XRD analysis confirms the low crystallinity of thin films prepared at low temperature, while crystalline anatase phase was found the for high temperature thin film. The photocatalytic activity of thin films was studied by the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye solution. Self-cleaning and photocatalytic performance of both low and high temperature thin films were compared.

$LiFePO_4$ is a potential candidate for the cathode material of the lithium polymer batteries. $LiFePO_4$ cathode active materials were synthesized by coating on the $LiFePO_4$ was tried using $TiO_2$ and corbon in oreder to increase cyclic performance and electronic conductivity. Highly dispersed on the particles enhances the electronic conductivity and increases the capacity. For lithium polymer battery applications, $LiFePO_4$/SPE/Li and $LiFePO_4$-$TiO_2$/SPE/Li 'cells were characterized electrochemically by cyclic volatammetry and charge/discharge cycling. The $LiFePO_4$-carbon-$TiO_2$ cathode in PVDF-PC-EC-$LiCIO_4$ electrolyte showed high capacity at high current density.

There has been increasing awareness on the importance of not only removal of organic materials but also sterilization of microbial cell in the drinking water purification research, so there has been many researches on that area. This study has been designed to analyze the effects of $TiO_{2}$ and ZnO coated on activated carbon on Escherichia coli. In this study, the sterilization power was analyzed by (1) variation of $TiO_{2}$ and ZnO concentration coated on activated carbon (2) variation of UV intensity. In addition, the kinetics between exposure time and sterilization velocity was viewed by the method of Chick. The results are as follows. 1. Survival ratio of E. coli decreased as time goes on in application of $TiO_{2}$, ZnO and $TiO_{2}{\cdot}ZnO$. In $TiO_{2}$ and ZnO, the effect increased upto certain concentration, but decreased there-after. In $TiO_{2}{\cdot}ZnO$, the effect of sterilization was in similar way among 3 combinations. 2. Survival ratio of E. coli decreased proportionately to an increase of light intensity in ZnO and $TiO_{2}{\cdit}ZnO$. In $TiO_{2}$, the survival ratio differed over extent of irradiation but the difference over the light intensity was not significant. 3. When Chick's law of sterilization was applied, m values of three concentrations of $TiO_{2}$ were 1.57,0.98, 1.96 respectively. M values of three concentration of ZnO were 1.10, 1.18,0. 11 respectively and those of three combination of $TiO_{2}{\cdot}ZnO$ were 1.17, 1.24, 1.74 respectively.

$BaTIO_3$ thin films were prepared on (100) $BaTIO_3$ substrates by coating- pyrolysis process using metal-organic compounds of Ba and Ti. The amorphous films prefired at $450^{\circ}C$were crystallized above $700^{\circ}C$ under oxygen partial pressure of $2\times 10^{-4}$. The lattice parameters of the perpendicular axis for the $BaTIO_3$ thin films heat-treated below $800^{\circ}C$ were closer to a value of cubic $BaTIO_3$, whereas those above $800^{\circ}C$ were closer to a value of tetragonal BaTiG. The results of XRD P scan and pole-figure analyses indicated that BaTiO, thin films have an epitaxial relationship with the $SrTiO_3$ substrates. The $BaTIO_3$thin films annealed at$800^{\circ}C$ showed the surface with island-like grains about 0.4$mu \textrm{m}$ and the cross section of 0.8 $mu \textrm{m}$ thickness with granular grains.
