In order to investigate the possibility of Ni-Al based intermetallics coating onto aluminum substrate, the coating process for induction heating has been evaluated by microscopically analyzing the intermetallic layers coated at temperatures lower than the melting temperature of aluminum. The coating layers were divided into two parts with different microstructure along the depth. Hard $NiAl_3$ layer was found at lower parts of the coatings near the interface with aluminum substrate. This layer was formed by the diffusion of aluminum atoms from the substrate into the coating layer across the interface during the induction heating. Meanwhile, at the upper parts of the coating near the surface, a large amount of un-reacted Ni was still remained and surrounded by several Ni-Al based intermetallic compounds, such as $Ni_3Al$, NiAl and $Ni_2Al_3$ formed by the lattice diffusion.

아연-마그네슘 합금은 기존의 대표적 강판 코팅 소재인 아연보다 뛰어난 내식성으로 인해 차세대 강판 코팅 소재로서 주목받고 있다. 그러나 이러한 아연-마그네슘 합금을 아연의 대체 소재로 사용하기 위해서는 내식성 이외에도 사용 환경에 적합한 일정 수준 이상의 기계적 특성이 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 마그네슘 함량을 달리하여 아연-마그네슘 합금을 제조하였으며, 이를 대상으로 경도, 압축강도 등의 특성 평가를 실시하여, 아연-마그네슘 합금의 기계적 특성에 미치는 금속간화합물의 영향을 분석하였다.

본 연구에서 PVD법중 하나인 스퍼터링(sputtering)법에 의해 제작된 Al-Mg 코팅막은 SEM, GDS, XRD를 통해 표면 및 단면의 조성분포를 분석하였으며, 내식성을 평가하기 위하여 함량별, 열처리 조건별 Al-Mg 막을 각각 5% NaCl 염수분무 환경 및 3% NaCl 자연침지 환경에 노출시켰다. 막의 내식 특성에 영향을 미치는 열처리의 영향을 알아보기 위하여 열처리-비열처리간 재료 특성 및 내식성평가 결과의 연관성을 비교-분석하였다. 열처리 결과 Al-Mg계 금속간 화합물 $Al_3Mg_2$와 $Al_{12}Mg_{17}$이 관찰되었으며 내식성 평가 결과, 열처리 Al-Mg 막은 비열처리 Al-Mg 막과 비교하여 양호한 내식성을 나타냈었다. 열처리를 통해 마그네슘(Mg) 성분이 대부분 금속간 화합물상으로 존재함에 따라 균일하게 분포하여 치밀한 부식생성물을 형성하게 되고, 이에 따라 Al-Mg 막 내식성에 기여한 것으로 사료된다.

SAC-coated Cu specimens were fabricated by novel pad finish process using a phenomenon that metal nanoparticles less than 20 nm in diameter melted at a temperature lower than the melting point of bulk metal, and their wettabilities were evaluated. The thickness of SAC305 layer coated at low temperature of $160^{\circ}C$ using SAC305 ink was extremely thin as the level of several nanometers. It was analyzed by Auger electron spectroscopy that $Cu_6Sn_5$ intermetallic layer with a thickness of 10~100 nm and $Cu_3Sn$ intermetallic layer with a thickness of 50~150 nm were sequentially formed under the SAC305 coating layer. The thickness of formed intermetallic layers was thicker in electroplated Cu than rolled Cu, which attributed to improved surface roughness in the electroplated Cu. The improved surface roughness induces the contact, melting, and reaction of a larger number of SAC305 nanoparticles per the unit area of Cu specimen. In the wetting angle test using SAC305 solder balls, the Cu coated with SAC305 through the low temperature process presented evidently low wetting angles than those in non-coated Cu, indicating that only a few nanometer-thick SAC305 coating layer on Cu could also cause the enhancement of wettability.

Ball-milling for reactant powders in advance and using an induction heating system for Ni-Al intermetallic coating process are known to enhance the reactivity of combustion synthesis. In this work, the effects of the charging weight ratio of ball to powder in ball-milling for reactant Ni-Al powders and the synthesizing temperature in induction heating on sliding wear behavior of the coating layers are investigated. Sliding wear behavior of the coating layers is examined against a tool steel using a pin-on-disc type sliding wear machine. As results, wear of the coating layer ball-milled without ball was severely worn out at the sliding speed of 2m/s, regardless of the synthesizing temperature in induction heating. However, the wear rate of the coating layers at the sliding speed was remarkably decreased with increasing the charging weight ratio of ball in ball-milling for reactant powders. This can be explained by the fact that the void in the coating layer is disappeared and the coating layer is densified by the ball-milling. The evidence showed that pitting damages were disappeared on the worn surface of ball-milled coating layer. Consequentially, the Ni-Al intermetallic coating layer could have better wear resistance at all sliding speed ranges with the ball-milling for reactant powders in advance.

The possibility of Cu-Al-Ni intermetallic coating on the mild steel through the combustion synthesis has been investigated. In particular, the effect of the ball milling energy on the microstructure of the coating layer was examined to obtain the best coating condition. Experimental results show that Cu-Al-Ni powder compact was explosively synthesized and successfully coated with the steel matrix. It was revealed that the formation of $Cu_9Al_4$ intermetallic decreased with increase in the ball milling energy. This result supports that the high energy ball milling would be effective for obtaining the most suitable microstructure for Cu-Al-Ni coating layer. However, the excessive ball milling energy seems to decrease the bonding strength between the coating layer and the matrix.

알루미늄 코팅막은 부식환경으로부터 강판을 보호하는 데에 자주 사용된다. 그러나 이 코팅막은 때때로 사용조건에 따라 제한을 받는다. 아무리 강판상에 치밀한 양질막을 코팅시켰다 할지라도, 사용중 이 피막이 손상을 받아서 강판이 노출되는 경우는 강판과의 갈바닉(Galvanic)작용으로 급격한 부식을 일으킨다. 본 연구는 내식성 개선을 목적으로 해서, 고밀착성의 코팅막을 제공하는 비평형프라즈마 프로세스인 이온프레이팅법에 의해 냉간압연강판상에 Al-Mg합금 코팅막을 제작했다. 제작된 막들은 우선, EMPA측정에 의해 원소조성분석을 한 후, 상구조분석 및 표.단면의 몰포로지(Molphology)를 X선 회절 및 주사형 전자현미경(SEM)에 의해 관찰했다. 또한, 이들막은 탈기시킨 3%NaCl용액중 양극분극 측정을 통해서 내식특성에 대한 평가를 행했다. 이들의 결과에 의하면, 알루미늄과 마그네슘의 조성비에 따라 주상, 미결정 및 아몰포스(Amorphous)조직을 보이는 금속간화합물이나 고용체의 Al-Mg박막이 나타났다. 이들 Al-Mg합금 코팅막은 강판과의 갈바닉 부식작용에 대한 방지 및 부동태 피막의 형성을 촉진하는 등의 좋은 내식성을 나타냈다.
