For surface modification, bulk metallic glass coatings were fabricated using metallic glass powder and a mixture of a self-fluxing alloy or/and hard metal alloys with a heat-resisting property using a high velocity oxy-fuel coating thermal spraying process. Microstructural analyses and mechanical tests were carried out using X-ray diffraction, a scanning electron microscope, an atomic force microscope, a three-dimensional optical profiler, and nanoindenation. As a result, the monolithic metallic glass coating was found to consist of solid particle and lamellae regions that included many pores. Second phase-reinforced composite coatings with a self-fluxing alloy or/and hard metal alloy additives were employed with in-situ $Cr_2Ni_3$ precipitate or/and ex-situ WC particles in an amorphous matrix. The mechanical behaviors of the solid particles and lamella regions showed large hardness and elastic modulus differences. The mechanical properties of the particle regions in the metallic glass composite coatings were superior to those of the lamellae regions in the monolithic metallic glass coatings, but indicated similar trends in matrix region of all the coating layers.

(Ni-22Cr-10Al-1Y)와 ($ZrO_2-25CeO_2-2.5Y_2O_3$)로 구성되는 금속/세라믹 복합코팅을 대기용사(ASP; air plasma spay)으로 철 기판위에 1:3, 2:2, 3:1의 무게비로 혼합하여 제조하였다. 용사된 코팅은 금속이영지역과 세라믹잉여지역으로 구별되고, 용사중에 NiCrAlY중의 Al이 선택적으로 산화되어 Al2O3가 계면에 존재하였다. 복합코팅은 $NaCl-Na_2SO_4$ 용융염에서 $800{\sim}900^{\circ}C$, 50시간 동안 부식실험을 실시하였다. 부식생성물은 NiO, $Cr_2O_3$, ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$가 생성되는데, 부식이 진행되면서 용해되었다. 용융염 부식이 진행되는 동안에 Cr, Al이 외방확산하였고, Na, Cl, S는 내부로 확산되었다. 시간 및 온도뿐만 아니라 금속의 양이 증가할수록 코팅의 내식성은 저하되었다.

In this study, composite membrane is prepared by Layer-by-Layer method using hydrophobic polymer as a coating material on the polysulfone support. The existence of coating layer on the surface and cross section was confirmed by the scanning electronic microscopy. The flux and rejection of the resulting membranes were characterized using 100 ppm NaCl feed solution. PVSA, PEI, PAA, PSSA, PSSA_MA were used as a coating polymer in this study. The composite membrane prepared by using 8,000 ppm PAA solution (Ion strength = 0.35, Coating time = 3 min) and 10,000 ppm PEI solution (Coating time = 4 min). As a result, PAA-PEI composite membrane showed flux of 101 LMH and salt rejection of 66.7%. The composite membrane showed the comparable performance as good as NE 4040-70 (Flux = 30 LMH, Rejection = 40~70%) model produced by Toray Chemical co.

The poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based thin film composite nanofiltration (NF) membranes were prepared by coating polysulfone ultrafiltration membranes, sulfonated polyethersulfone and polyamide NF membranes with aqueous PVA solution by a pressurizing method. The PVA was cross-linked with aqueous glutaraldehyde solution. The NF membranes coated with a very low concentration of PVA on all the support membranes was successfully prepared. With increasing the hydrophilicity of the support membranes, the water flux increased. Especially, ζ-potential of negatively charged polyamide NF membrane was reduced by coating the membrane with PVA. A fouling experiment was carried out with positively charged surfactant, humic acid, complex of humic acid and calcium ion and bovine serum albumin. A non-coated polyamide NF membrane was significantly fouled by various foulants. The fouling process when using humic acid and protein occurred at the isoelectric point. There was severe fouling when using humic acid and adding bivalent cations. By coating the polyamide NF membrane with aqueous PVA solution, fouling was reduced. The polyamide NF membrane coated with PVA was resistant to the acidic and basic solution.

나노결정질 다이아몬드(Nanocrystalline Diamond: NCD) 박막은 고경도와 낮은 마찰계수를 가지고 있어 고속도강과 같은 절삭공구 위에 코팅하여 공구의 성능 향상을 도모하고자 하는 노력이 있어 왔다. 그러나 NCD 박막의 잔류응력이 크고, 철계금속에는 NCD가 증착되지 않는다는 문제점이 있다. 잔류응력 완화와 다이아몬드 핵생성을 위하여 제3의 중간층 재료가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 Ti과 W을 중간층으로 하여 고속도강(SKH51)에 NCD 박막을 코팅하고 기계적 특성을 비교하였다. 고속도강 위에 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터를 이용하여 2 ${\mu}m$ 두께의 Ti 또는 W 중간층을 증착하고, 그 위에 Microwave Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition (MPCVD) 방법으로 NCD 박막을 2 ${\mu}m$ 두께로 코팅 한 것과 Ti, W순으로 각각 1 ${\mu}m$ 두께로 증착 후 그 위에 NCD 박막을 2 ${\mu}m$ 두께로 코팅 한 시편을 비교하였다. 세 가지 종류의 시편에 대하여 FESEM을 이용하여 표면과 단면의 형상을 관찰하였고, XRD와 Raman spectroscopy를 통해 NCD 박막의 결정성을 확인하였다. 그리고 Tribometer를 이용해 코팅된 박막의 내마모성을 비교하였으며 Rockwell C Indentation test를 이용하여 접합력을 비교하였다. 연구 결과 Ti/W 복합중간층 위에 코팅된 NCD의 접합력이 가장 우수하였으며 그 다음 W, Ti 순으로 나타났다. NCD와 고속도강의 큰 열팽창계수 차이가 복합중간층으로 인해 줄어들고 잔류응력이 완화되어 접합력이 향상되는 것으로 여겨진다.

The effect of porous support layer resistance and PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) coating thickness on ethylene/nitrogen separation of composite membranes was studied with the model of Pinnau and Wijmans〔1〕. To control the support resistance (or permeance), PES porous membranes were prepared by phase inversion process with various PES/NMP dope concentrations. The thickness of selective PDMS top layer was controlled by using a spin coater. Its cross-section and coating thickness were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Pure gas permeation test was done with ethylene and nitrogen, respectively. The experimental result for olefin/nitrogen separation process matched well with theoretical result from the model used. The result shows that optimization between PDMS coating thickness and support resistance is important to get PDMS composite membranes with best performance.

Composite membranes were prepared for membrane/cold condensation process for recovery of unreacted olefin monomer from the polyolefin polymerization process by solution coating and plasma polymerization processes. Poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) solution was coated on polysulfone (PSF) support and increase of prepolymer content in solution made more dense membrane structure to result in the increase of separation factor while absolute flux decreased. Permeation of organic materials through the composite membranes follows the sorption and diffusion mechanism, which brought about the results that separation factor increased with critical temperature of the organic materials, and that flux increased with the increase of the molar volume. Crosslinking period affected the permeation characteristics. Other types of composite membranes were fabricated by plasma polymerization of siloxane materials on polypropylene (PP) and PSF supports. PP was tested as a support for composite membranes, which had not been used so far in solution coating process, and plasma polymerization made the composite membranes equivalent performances to those of membranes prepared by solution coating process.

The electrical conductivity of carbon-fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP's) has been improved by indium-tin oxide (ITO) nano-particle coating on carbon fibers for the purpose of lightning strike protection of composite fuselage skins. ITO nano-particles were coated on the surface of carbon fibers by spraying the colloidal suspension with 10~40% ITO content. The electrical conductivity of the CFRP has been increased more than three times after ITO coating, comparable to or higher than that of B-787 composite fuselage skins with metal wire-meshes on the outer surface, without sacrificing the tensile property due to the existence of nano-particles at fiber-matrix interface. The damage area by the simulated lightning strike was also verified for different materials and conditions by using ultrasonic C-scan image. As the electrical conductivity of 40% nano-ITO coated sample surpass that of the B-787 sample, the damage area by lightning strike also appeared comparable to that of the materials currently employed for composite fuselage construction.
