High-nitrogen Fe-18Mn-18Cr-N austenitic steels with higher yield strength have been recently developed and used for generator retaining rings because they have non-magnetic, high strength, high ductility, and good corrosion resistance. In the present study, a high-nitrogen Fe-18Mn-18Cr-0.61N austenitic steel was fabricated and then tensile and Charpy impact tests were conducted on them in order to investigate the effect of cold working on the mechanical properties. Although the yield and tensile strengths usually increased with cold working, the ductility and impact toughness significantly decreased after cold working. On the other hand, the high-nitrogen austenitic steel exhibited a ductile-brittle transition due to unusual brittle fracture at low temperatures despite having a face-centered cubic structure. The ductile-brittle transition temperature obtained from Charpy impact tests could be remarkably increased by $60^{\circ}C$ after 20% cold working because of the enhanced cleavage-like brittle fracture.

Cold forging die for metal scissor is made by electric discharge machine. The impression of female die is made by electric discharge machine, the heat treatment is applied, and the impression is polished. When we forge goods by using this kind of die, the abrasion is severe and the crack occurs after forging about 240 strokes. Because the die should be frequently produced in the case, the cost rises, the work is delayed, and the precesion of goods is not good. Therefore, the electric discharge machine was not used in this study. Main die was produced by making hob, installing the hob to cold hobbing press, indenting the die material, and cold hobbing the impression. The die life was increased to 5,000-6,000 strokes in this case. In the future study, the die life will be increased to 10,000 strokes by changing the following : (1) the pre-treatment of slug, (2) the structure of die block, (3) the heat treatment of die material

고순도 알루미나 분말에 소결조제로서 MgO를 0ppm 및 500ppm 첨가하여 열분무건조기를 사용하여 준비한 과립을 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 하소를 함으로써 얻어진 과립으로 제작한 소결체의 MgO 첨가량에 따른 미세구조와 꺾임강도에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 또한 시편두께를 50$mu extrm{m}$의 박편으로 가공하여 투광법으로 내부구조도 관찰하였다. MgO를 500ppm 첨가하여 제작한 과립을 180 MPa의 냉간정수압성형성 후 1$600^{\circ}C$에서 소결한 소결체는 상대밀도가 100%에 도달하였고 균일한 결정립성장의 치밀한 미세구조를 나타내었다. MgO를 500ppm 첨가한 시편의 4점 꺾임강도 또한 각 소결온도에서 MgO를 9ppm 첨가한 시편보다 23%-32%정도 높은 강도를 나타내었으며, 특히 소결온도 1$600^{\circ}C$에서는 꺾임강도가 501MPa 그리고 weibull 계수가 20의 고강도이면서 신뢰성이 높은 알루미나 소결체가 얻어졌다. 본 연구에서는 weibull 계수의 값이 높은 시편일수록 내부구조의 결함크기가 작고 이 작은 결함이 시편내부에 균일하게 분포되어 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

압정가공은 열간압정과 냉간압정으로 크게 나눌 수 있으며, 압정기와 피압정재의 종류에 따라 서도 분류한다. 열간압정에서는 알루미늄과 알루미늄합금을 제외하고는 종래에 오직 물만이 냉각겸 윤활제로 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 근년에 와서 열간압정에서도 윤활유를 사용하게 됨으 로서 롤(roll)의 수명연장, 전력소비량의 저감 및 사상(finishing) 강판의 표면품질향상등에 극히 유효하다는 것을 인식하게 되었다. 한편 냉각압정에서는 압정유를 사용해 온 것이 100년 가까이 되는 역사가 있고, 특히 과거 십 수년간에는 상당히 광범위하게 연구가 이루어져서, 많은 실적을 갖게 되었다. 예컨대, 석도원판으로 대표되는 박판압정에 있어서는 고속고압하에서 판의 형상 및 표면정쟁성 향상은 물론이고 저온(에너지 절감, 작업성 개선) 저농도사용(원단위감소)이 이루어 지고, 나아가 장수명(액의 오염이 적은 것)의 압정유가 개발되었다. 또한 마대강 압정에 있어 서는 고윤활이면서도 ECL(electric cleaning line)의 성략도 가능한 압정유 즉 밀크린시트(mill clean sheet) 압정유의 연구도 활발히 진행되고 있다. 압정유의 역할을 살펴보면 열간 또는 냉 간을 불문하고, 롤과 재료간의 감마작용이 주가 되지만 기타 실용적으로는 (1)냉각성 (2)판의 끝맺음(finishing)성 (3)선정선 (4)방장성,비부식성 (5) 내노화성 (6) 오일.스테인(oil stain) (7) 급 유성 (8)액관리성 (9)비수처리성 10) 안전위생 (11)경제성 등을 열거할 수 있다.

Experimental study was conducted for lapping process after WEDMed specimen. In order to decide the lapping depth of the specimen, the number of the grain size was increased from 400, 600 to 800 to obtain the better surface. Observation of scanning electron microscope, hardness test, surface roughness test and energy dispersive spectrum(EDS) analysis were used for this experimental study. From the comparison and analyses of the results of between the wire-cut electrical discharge machining and the lapping, the following results were obtained. The surface roughness after lapping was found to be improved as increasing the number of lapping process like 1st, 2nd, 3rd lapping and the number of grain size such as 400, 600, 800. The surface hardness after increasing the lapping depth of the specimen was slowly increased. It was found that after 3rd lapping process the hardness was reached the hardness of original base material. It was found that the small amount of coating components within 3% was remained after the 1st lapping process, compared to that approximately 16% after WEDM process.

The 2.5 vol% TiNi/6061Al composites were fabricated by permanent mold casting. The microstructures and tensile test for the cold rolled composites with maximum 50% reduction ratio were investigated. In the case of TiNi fiber with 2mm interval in preform, the interface bonding of fabricated composites were good, interface diffusion layer of this composites was made by the mutual diffusion. Transverse section of TiNi fiber was decreased with increasing reduction ratio and longitudinal section of TiNi fiber showed multiple wave phenomenon. And the tensile strength of composites at 38% reduction ratio was the most high. In the case of over 38% reduction ratio, the decrease of the tensile strength was due to TiNi fiber rupture by excess working. The fracture mode was appeared brittle fracture with increasing reduction ratio.

휴대전화, 랩톱 컴퓨터 등 각종 모바일기기 및 디스플레이 기기의 경박단소화 및 고기능화에 따라 연성회로기판(FPCB)의 사용량이 증가하고있다. 연성회로기판의 핵심소재인 동박적층필름(FCCL)은 폴리이미드필름과 접착층, Cu 층으로 구성되는데, 이 중접착층으로 사용되는 Ni-20Cr합금은 에칭공정 후 Cr의 잔류에 의해 불량률 증가가 문제되고 있어, Ni-Cr합금 스퍼터링 타깃의 Cr 함량 저감 또는 Cr-free Ni합금 개발 등이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 차세대 FCCL 본드층에 적합한 Ni기 합금을 개발하기 위한 기초연구로써 Cr 함량 및 가공열처리조건에 따른 미세조직과 집합조직 변화를 조사하였다. 4N급의 고순도Ni과 Cr을 진공 플라즈마 용해장치로 용해하여Ni-xCr (x=5, 10, 15, 20wt.%)합금 잉곳을 만들고, 이를 두께감소율 90%로 냉간압연한 후, $600^{\circ}C$ 및 $800^{\circ}C$에서 10~120분 동안 어닐링하여 시편을 준비하였다. 광학현미경으로 미세조직을 관찰하고, Micro-Vickers 경도시험을 통해 어닐링 조건에 따른 경도변화를 조사하였다. 또한 SEM-EBSD를 이용하여 집합조직 및 입계특성을 분석하였다. $600^{\circ}C$ 어닐링 시 Cr함량이 증가할수록 재결정 완료시간이 증가하여 Ni-20Cr합금의 경우 2시간이상 어닐링에도 재결정이 일어나지 않았다. $800^{\circ}C$ 어닐링 시 10분 어닐링 조건에서 4종류 합금 모두 재결정이 완료되었으며, 동일한 어닐링 조건에서 Cr함량이 증가할수록 결정립이 작아지는 것으로 나타났다. $800^{\circ}C$ 2시간 어닐링 조건에서 Ni-5Cr 합금의 주요 집합조직은 {223}<113>과 {122}<112>로 나타났으며, 이중 {223}<113>은Cr 함량이 증가함에 따라 점차 {122}<112>에 가까운 방향으로 변화되어 Ni-20Cr 합금의 경우 {123}<112>만이 형성되었다. 이러한 집합조직의 변화는 적층결함에너지 감소에 의한 ${\Sigma}3$ 입계의 분율 증가와 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 사료된다.

This study is to investigate the phase changes and cold workability after isothermal transformation at $780^{\circ}C$ by using the high temperature gas nitrided (HTGN) STS 430 ferritic stainless steel specimens. The phase diagram of STS 430 steel obtained by calculation showed that the phase appeared at $1100^{\circ}C$ showed as ${\alpha}+{\gamma}{\rightarrow}{\gamma}{\rightarrow}{\gamma}+Cr_2N{\rightarrow}{\gamma}+Cr_2N+CrN$ with increasing nitrogen concentration. Also, the transformation of ${\gamma}{\rightarrow}Cr_2N$ during heat treatment isothermally at $780^{\circ}C$, nitrogen pearlite with lamellar type was fully formed at the nitrogen permated surface layer for 10 hrs. However, this transformation was not completed for 1 hr, resulting nitrogen pearlite plus martensite. The cold rolled specimen of isothermally transformed at $780^{\circ}C$ for 10 hrs after high temperature gas nitriding decreased the layer thickness of nitrogen pearlite inducing the deformation of hard $Cr_2N$ phase. the dissolution rate of $Cr_2N$ phase increased rapidly with increasing cold rolling ratio. Specimens with the microstructure of nitrogen pearlite (isothermally transformed at $780^{\circ}C$ for 10 hrs) were possible to cold rolling without crack formation. However, the mixed structures of nitrogen pearlite + martensite (isothermally transformed at $780^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr) were impossible to cold deformation without cracking.

Making use of SN steel in the building structure should be a prerequisite to adopt the design strength of said steel. As a preceding study, the material properties of STKN400B/490B tubes and SPAP235/325 and SPAR295 square pipes manufactured using SN400B/490B plates were evaluated. Compared with the yield and ultimate strengths of SN400B/490B plates, those of STKN400B/490B tubes increase. Nonetheless, the yield and ultimate strengths of STKN400B/490B tubes satisfied the design codes of STKN400B/490B tubes even though the tubes were fabricated via roll bending or press forming. On the other hand, the yield and ultimate strengths at the edges of SPAP235/325 square pipes did not satisfy the design codes based on the values at the sides. The maximum tensile and compressive residual stresses at the SN490B tube were equal to and 40% of the yield strength of the SN490B plate, respectively, In the case of the SPAP325 square pipe, both the maximum tensile and compressive residual stresses were 80% of the yield strength of the SN490B plate. The axial compressive loaded column test results snowed that the buckling strengths were not very different regardless of the mode of fabrication of STKN490B tunes. i.e., through roll bending or press forming. On the other hand, the buckling strength of the SPAP325 square pipe was higher than that of the built-up square pipe.

Steel beams with corrugated web have been widely used in the steel structures. However, it is challenging to weld the section between the corrugated web and the flange straight, which increases the cost of production. In order to solve this issue, steel beam with intaglio and embossed web (It is called an IEB) was invented. A web with embossment is produced by cold pressing and welded to flange by automatic welding machine. The loading tests were conducted to investigate the load-carrying capacity of IEB, and its test result was compared with that of H-shaped beam having a same size of flange and web. The test results of IEB series showed about 40% higher load capacities than H-shaped series. As a result of comparing the IEB specimen with Eurocodes for steel beams with corrugated web, all of specimens tested in this study did not meet the design value. Therefore, it is difficult to apply existing formula to IEB and new design formula should be presented for field application.
