철강재는 대량 생산이 가능하며 경제성이 뛰어나고 기계적 성질도 우수하므로 다양한 산업 분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 철강재는 부식 환경에 취약하기 때문에 그 용도에 따라 다양한 내식성을 부여하는 표면처리를 적용하고 있다. 일반적으로 이러한 철강 재료에 대한 내식성 표면처리로는 습식공정을 이용한 아연(Zn)도금 표면처리가 널리 적용되고 있다. 그러나 최근에는 이러한 습식공정으로 인해 발생하는 자원소모 및 환경적인 문제와 더불어 고내식성 표면처리 소재에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 이러한 단점을 극복할 수 있는 새로운 소재 및 기술 개발에 대한 관심이 증대되고 있다. 이러한 관점에서 기존의 습식표면처리 공정을 건식으로 대체 또는 병행하고, 현행 아연소재를 대체할 수 있는 코팅소재로써 알루미늄(Al) 이나 마그네슘(Mg)으로 대체하는 방법이 시도되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강판의 내식성을 향상시키기 위한 방법으로 기존의 습식 표면처리 공정에서 용이하지 않은 마그네슘을 이용하여 건식 PVD 프로세스에 의해 코팅막의 제작을 시도하였다. 그리고 코팅막 제작 조건 중에서 공정압력이 코팅막의 결정배향성에 미치는 영향과 내식성과의 상관관계를 규명하고자 하였다. 즉, 여기서는 강판 및 용융알루미늄 도금강판 상에 스퍼터링법에 의해 Ar 가스에 의한 공정압력을 2, 10 및 50 mTorr로 조절하면서 마그네슘 코팅막을 $2{\mu}m$ 두께로 각각 제작하였다. 이때 제작한 막의 표면 모폴로지 관찰(SEM) 및 결정구조 분석(XRD) 결과에 의하면, 강판 및 용융알루미늄도금강판 상에 제작한 코팅막들은 공통적으로 공정압력이 증가할수록 그모폴로지의 결정립의 크기가 작고 치밀한 구조로 변하였다. 또한 그때 형성된 코팅막의 결정구조는 표면에너지가 상대적으로 높은 Mg(002)면 피크의 점유율이 감소하고 표면에너지가 낮은 Mg(101)면 피크의 점유율이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 그리고 공정압력이 증가할수록 Mg 격자 간 면 간격(d-value)이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이상에서 제작한 마그네슘 코팅막의 결정성장 과정은 본 진공 플라즈마 PVD 공정중 증착가 더불어 흡착역할을 하는 Ar의 움직임에 따라 설명 가능하였다[1,2]. 코팅막의 양극분극(Polarization)측정 결과에 의하면, 공정압력이 높은 조건에서 제작한 막일수록 부동태 특성이 우수하여 내식성이 향상되는 경향을 나타내었다. 특히, 공정압력이 상대적으로 높은 50 mTorr 조건에서 제작된 코팅막이 표면 마그네슘 결정의 크기가 조밀하고 결정구조는 Mg(002)면과 Mg(101)면의 상대강도 비가 유사하여 내식성 가장 우수하였다.

$ReMnO_3$(Re:Y, Ho, Er) thin films were prepared by MOCVD method available to non-volatile memory device with MFS-FET structure. $ReMnO_3$ thin films were deposited on the Si(100) substrate at 700${\circ}C$ for 2h. When the films were post-annealed at 900${\circ}C$ for 1h in air, the single phase of hexagonal $ReMnO_3$ thin films were detected. Ferroelectric properties of $ReMnO_3$ thin films were dependent on the degree of c-axis orientation in the single phase of hexagonal structure and remnant polarization (Pr) of $YMnO_3$ thin films with high degree of c-axis orientation was 105 nC/$cm^2$. Leakage current density was dependent on the grain size of microstructure and that of $YMnO_3$ thin films with grain size of 100∼150 nm was $10^{-8}$ A/$cm^2$ at applied voltage of 0.5 V.

Thermally stable polyquinonediimines(PQDI) containing di-azobenzene in the side chain were synthesized by means of condensation polymerization under $TiCl_4$. The synthesized monomers and polymers were identified by FT-IR, $^1H-NMR$, and elemental analysis. Especially, the polymerization of PQDI was confirmed by the double-bonding peak of >C=N appearing near 1625cm$^{-1}$ in FT-IR spectrum. PQDI with di-azobenzene group in one side chain was insoluble in methanol, acetone and non-polar solvents having big dielectric constant, but had good solubility in polar solvents having small dielectric constant. Molecular weight distribution of PQDI measured by GPC was 1.38. It was confirmed to be amorphous polymer through X-ray diffraction by the appearance of the halo in case of PQDI containing di-azobenzene in the side chain. The glass transition temperature ($_g$) of synthesized polymer was measured to be 116$^{\circ}C$ by differential scanning calorimetry. The SHG value for ${\chi}^{(2)}$ was 1.2 pm/V (${\lambda}$ = 1.542 ${\mu}$m). The SHG value slightly decreased in an early stage but showed temporal stability after 20 hours.

The dielectric properties of semi-IPN poly(phenylene oxide)(PPO) blend/$BaTiO_3$(BT) composites are investigated. The composites are fabricated via melt-mixing of crosslinker and peroxide in precursor PPO composite obtained by precipitating the suspension consisted of PPO, BT and toluene into methylethyl ketone, poor solvent of PPO. The permittivity of the precursor PPO composites shows higher value than that of integral-blended PPO composites by extruder and coincides with the theoretical value calculated by logarithmic rule of mixture. The blend of PPO and cross-linked triallyl isocyanurate is most effective for lowering the permittivity and loss tangent owing to the suppression of the orientation polarization of matrix. In contrast, 4,4'-(1,3-phenylene diisopropylidene) bisaniline, which has amine unit in its structure, increases the permittivity as well as loss tangent of the composite, but it has the ability to densify the matrix resin and the interfacial adhesion between the matrix and filler to improves flexural strength and modulus.

PZT films without lower electrode were deposited on the highly doped Si(100) substrate with MgO buffer layer (Mgo/si) by RF magnetron sputtering method followed by the rapid thermal annealing at $650^{\circ}C$ . We investigated the dependences of the crystalline and electrical properties on the MgO thickness and the RTA post annealing. The PZT films on bare Si (without MgO) showed pyrochlore crystal structure while those on MgO(50 )/Si substrates showed the typical perovskite crystal structures. From SEM and AES analysis, the thickness of PZT films was about 7000 showing relatively smooth interface. The depth profiles indicated that atomic species were distributed homogeneously in the PZT/MgO/Si substrate. The dielectric constant($\varepsilon_{r}$ ) and remanent polarization(2Pr) were about 300 and $14\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$;, respectively. The leakage current was about $3.2\mu$/A$\textrm{cm}^2$.

We investigated the effect of both 4 types additives and $0.5wt\%\;Pb_3O_4$ which have been reported to show an improvement on the performance of Zinc anode. And Experimental methods such as corrosion potential measurement, potentiodynamic polorization test and charging-discharging cycle life test were carried out in $40 wt\%$ KOH with $Pb_3O_4(0.5, \;10\;&\;2.0wt\%)$ and 4 types additives $(0.4wt\%\;of\;Ca(OH)_2$, 0.025M of Citrate, Tartrate and Gluconate). Corrosion potential was shifted to high direction and also changed to high and low direction repeatedly with increasing of $Pb_3O_4$ quantity. However by adding $0.5wt\%\;Pb_3O_4$, corrosion potential shifted to low direction and showed stable condition. Furthermore it was well known that corrosion resistance was predominantly increased compared to no addition and improved charging-discharging property with adding additives. By SEM analysis, it was concluded that the morphology of surface in case of only $0.5wt\%\;Pb_3O_4$ addition was nearly the same as that of Tartrate additive and in the other additives such as $Ca(OH)_2$, Citrate, Tartrate and Gluconate, their morphologies showed dendrite growth. Eventually it was thought that the additive of Tartrate indicated comparatively good corrosion resistance effect as well as charging-discharging property improvement among those four types additives.

There is an increasing interest in the development of rechargeable batteries suitable for use in both hybrid electric vehicles and energy storage systems that require higher charge & discharge rates, bigger battery sizes and increased safety of the batteries. Spinel-type lithium titanium oxide ($Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$) as a potential anode for lithium ion batteries has many advantages. It is a zero-strain materials and it experiences no structural change during the charge/discharge precess. Thus, it has long cycle life due to its structural integrity. It also offers a stable operation voltage of approximately 1.55 V versus $Li^+/Li$, above the reduction potential of most organic electrolyte. In this study, Ru added $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ composites were synthesized by solid state process. The characteristics of active material were investigated with TGA-DTA, XRD, SEM and charge/discharge test. The capacity was reduced when Ru was added, however, the polarization decreased. The capacity rate of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ with Ru (3%, 4%) addition was reduced during the charge/discharge precess with 10 C-rate as a high current density.

Since the oil price has been significantly jumped for recent some years, the diesel engine of the merchant ship has been mainly used the heavy oil of low quality. Thus, it has been often exposed to severely corrosive environment more and more because temperature of the exhaust gas in a combustion chamber is getting higher and higher with increasing of using the heavy oil of low quality. As a result, wear and corrosion of most parts surrounded with combustion chamber is more serious compared to the other parts of the engine. Therefore, an optimum weldment for these parts is very important to prolong their lifetime in a economical point of view. In this study, four types of filler metals such as Inconel 625, 718, 1.25Cr-0.5Mo and 0.5Mo were welded with SMAW and GTAW methods in the forged steel which would be generally used with piston crown material. And the corrosion properties of weld metal, heat affected zone and base metal were investigated using electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, anodic polarization curves, cyclic voltammogram and impedance etc. in 35% H2SO4 solution. The weld metal and base metal exhibited the best and worst corrosion resistance in all cases of filler metals. In particular, the weld metal welded with filler metals of Inconel 718 revealed the best corrosion resistance among the filler metals, and Inconel 625 followed the Inconel 718. Hardness relatively indicated higher value in the weld metal compared to the base metal. Furthermore, Inconel 625 and 718 indicated higher values of hardness compared to 1.25cr-0.5Mo and 0,5Mo filler metals in the weld metal.

Raney nickel was used as catalyst in the hydrogen electrode for an alkaline fuel cell. The hydrogen electrode manufactured with the Raney nickel catalyst which was sintered at $700^{\circ}C$ was found to have the highest electrode performance. Using the Raney nickel powder of average particle size $90{\AA}$ for the electrode, the current density which had been measured was $450mA/cm^2$ at $80^{\circ}C$ using 6N KOH solution as an electrolyte. The effects of PTFE addition were investigated with CO-chemisorption, polarization curves and Tafel slope. CO-chemisorption had shown the optimum value when the Raney nickel was mixed with 5wt% of PTFE, but from the current density and Tafel slope at porous Raney nickel electrode, the appropriate value of PTFE addition was 10wt%. Recommendable Ni and Al portion for Raney nickel was 60 : 40 and loading amount was $0.25g/cm^2$. Also the influence of pressing pressure for manufacturing catalytic layer and for junction with gas diffusion layer was examined. The morphology of catalyst surface was investigated with SEM. The influence of reactivation time and heat-treatment temperature were also studied.

Five different composition UV-cured poly(urethane acrylate-co-acrylic acid) (PU-co-AA) films have been prepared by reacting isophorone diisocyanate(IPDI), polycaprolactone triol(PCLT), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate(HEA), and different weight ratio trimethylolpropane triacrylate(TMPTA) and acrylic acid(AA) as diluents, and characterized using a Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR). The adhesion properties onto the stainless steel, morphology, mechanical hardness, and electrical property of UV-cured PU-co-AA films were investigated as a function of acrylic acid(AA) content. All the PU-co-AA films are structure-less and the molecular ordering and packing density decreased with increasing content of AA due to the flexible structure and -COOH side chains in AA. The crosscut test showed that PU-co-AA films without AA and with low content of AA showed 0% adhesion(0B) and the adhesion of PU-co-AA films in the range of 40-50% AA increased dramatically as the content of AA increases. The pull-off measurements showed that the adhesion force of PU-co-AA films to stainless steel substrate varied from 6 to 31 kgf /$cm^2$ and increased linearly with increasing AA content. The mechanical hardness also decreased as the content of AA increases. This may come from relatively linear and flexible structure in AA and low crystallinity in PU-co-AA films with higher content of AA. The higher AA-containing PU-co-AA films showed higher dielectric constant due to the increase of polarization by introducing AA monomer. In conclusion, the physical properties of UV-cured PU-co-AA films are strongly dependent upon the content of AA and the incorporation of AA in polyurethane acrylate is very useful way to increase the adhesion strength of UV-curable polymers on the stainless steel substrate.
