저온 플라즈마 기술을 이용하면 오스테나이트계 스테인리스강의 내식성과 표면경도를 동시에 증가 시킬 수 있다. 여러 가지 처리방법 중 질탄화와 2-step 공정으로 처리한 AISI304L강의 표면을 분석하였다. 처리한 모든 시편의 표면은 expanded austenite(${\gamma}_N$)이 형성되었고, 표면 경도도 모재보다 약 4배 이상 증가 하였다. 저온플라즈마 질탄화 공정의 경우 경화층의 두께가 최대 15 ${\mu}m$밖에 형성되지 않았지만 2-step공정의 경우 질탄화 공정보다 짧은 시간으로 약 2배의 경화층을 얻을 수 있었다. 두 가지 공정 모두 온도와 시간이 증가할수록 경화층의 두께가 두꺼워졌지만, 과도하게 높은 온도와 긴 공정시간은 석출물을 형성 시켰다. 석출물이 형성되지 않은 시편의 경우 내식성이 증가하였다.

Mg합금은 모든 구조용 재료 중에서 비강도가 크며 가공성이 가장 우수하여 재료의 실제 적용시에 2차 가공비 측면에서 다른 경량재료에 비해 유리하다. 그래서 경량화를 필요로 하는 최근 산업체의 요구를 충족시킬 수 있는 재료이다. 그러나 마그네슘 합금의 적용이 매우 제한되는 이유는 결정구조가 hcp로서 냉간가공이 어렵고, 강화기구가 석출경화 및 고용강화로 제한되기 때문에 기계적 성질, 즉 강도와 연성이 모두 낮다. 특히 고온에서 기계적 성질이 급격히 저하되기 때문에 구조용 재료로써는 사용이 어렵다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 고온에서 안정한 MgZn상과 항복강도를 향상시키는 Mg4Ag상의 석출을 보이는 Mg-Zn-Mn-Ag합금의 시효거동 및 미세조직 변화에 대해 검토하고자 하였다. 본 합금의 석출거동, 미세조직 및 경도 변화에 미치는 시효처리의 영향에 관한 연구를 수행하기 위해 Pandat Program을 이용해 열역학적 계산을 통한 상태도 해석 및 석출상을 예측 하였다. 계산된 결과는 DSC실험을 통해 비교 분석함으로써 신뢰성을 확보하였고 미세조직 및 석출상 분석을 위해 OM, SEM 그리고 XRD로 관찰하였다. 또한, 시효처리에 따른 기계적 특성을 분석하기 위해 상온 및 고온 인장시험을 하였고, 인장시험 후 파단면 분석을 통하여 재료의 파괴거동을 분석하였다.

The hardening effect by ice-quenching after oxidation of a Pd-Ag-Sn-Au metal-ceramic alloy during porcelain firing simulation was investigated by means of hardness test, field emission scanning electron microscopic observations, and X-ray diffraction analysis. The hardness decreased by ice-quenching after oxidation, which was induced by the homogenization of the ice-quenched specimen. The decreased hardness by ice-quenching after oxidation was recovered from the wash stage which was the first stage of the remaining firing process for bonding porcelain. After wash stage, the hardness of the ice-quenched specimens decreased during the subsequent porcelain firing process. But the final hardness of the ice-quenched specimens after oxidation was higher than that of the specimens cooled at stage 0 after oxidation. The increase in hardness of the specimens during the first firing process was caused by the lattice strains generated at the interface between the face-centered cubic Pd-Ag-rich matrix and the face-centered tetragonal Pd3(Sn, Ga, In) precipitate. The decrease in hardness of the specimens during the remaining firing process was caused by the microstructural coarsening.

The specimens used were Ag-25 Pd-15 Cu ternary alloy and Au addition alloy. These alloys were melted and casted by induction electric furnace and centrifugal casting machine in Ar atmosphere. These specimens were solution treated for 2hr at $800^{\circ}C$ and were then quenched into iced water, and aged at $350{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ Age- hardening characteristics of the small Au-containing Ag-Pd-Cu dental alloys were investigated by means of hardness testing. X-ray diffraction and electron microscope observations, electrical resistance, ergy dispersed spectra and electron probe microanalysis. Principal results are as follows : Hardening occured in two stages, i.e., stage I in low temperature and stage II in high temperature regions, during continuous aging. The case of hardening in stage I was due to the formation of the $L1_0$ type face-centered tetragonal PdCu-ordered phase in the grain interior and hardening in stage I was affected by the Cu concentration. In stage II, decomposition of the ${\alpha}$ solid solution to a PdCu ordered phase($L1_0$ type) and an Ag-rich ${\alpha}2$ phase occurred and a discontinuous precipitation occurred at the grain boundary. From the electron microscope study, it was conclued that the cause of age-hardening in this alloy is the precipitation of the PdCu ordered phase, which has AuCu I type face-centered tetragonal structure. Precipetation procedure was ${\alpha}{\to}{\alpha}+{\alpha}_2+PdCu {\to}{\alpha}_1+{\alpha}_2+PdCu$ at Pd/Cu = 1.7 Ag-Pd-Cu alloy is more effective dental alloy as ageing treatment and is suitable to isothermal ageing at $450^{\circ}C$.

The effect of cooling rate on precipitation hardening of a Pd-Cu-Ga-Zn metal-ceramic alloy during porcelain firing simulation was investigated and the following results were obtained. When the cooling rate was fast (Stage 0), the hardness of the alloy increased at each firing step and the high hardness value was maintained. When the cooling rate was slow (Stage 3), the hardness was the highest at the first stage of the firing, but the final hardness of the alloy after complete firing was lower. The increase in hardness of the specimens cooled at the cooling rate of Stage 0 after each firing step was caused by precipitation hardening. The decrease in hardness of the specimens cooled at the cooling rate of Stage 3 after each firing step was attributed to the coarsening of the spot-like precipitates formed in the matrix and plate-like precipitates. The matrix and the plate-like precipitates were composed of the $Pd_2(Cu,Ga,Zn)$ phase of CsCl-type, and the particle-like structure was composed of the Pd-rich ${\alpha}$-phase of face-centered cubic structure. Through the porcelain firing process, Cu, Ga, and Zn, which were dissolved in Pd-rich ${\alpha}$ particles, precipitated with Pd, resulting in the phase separation of the Pd-rich ${\alpha}$ particles into the Pd-rich ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ particles and ${\beta}^{\prime}$ precipitates composed of $Pd_2(Cu,Ga,Zn)$. These results suggested that the durability of the final prosthesis made of the Pd-Cu-Ga-Zn alloy can be improved when the cooling rate is fast during porcelain firing simulation.

The Ag-Pd-Cu alloys containing a small amount of Au is commonly used for dental purposes, because this alloy is cheaper than Au-base alloys for clinical use. However, the most important characteristic of this alloy is age-hardenability, which is not exhibited by other Ag-base dental alloys. The specimens used were Ag-20Pd-20Cu ternary alloy and Au addition alloy. These alloys were melted and casted by induction electic furace and centrifugal casting machine in Ar atmoshpere. These specimens were solution treated for 2hr at $800^{\circ}C$ and were then quenched into iced water, and aged at $350{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ Age-hardening characteristics of the small Au-containing Ag-pPd-Cu dental alloys were investigated by means of hardness testing, X-ray diffraction and electron microscope observations, electrical resistance, differential scanning calorimetric, emergy dispersed spectra and electron probe microanalysis. Principal results are as follows : Hardening occured in two stages, I. e., stage I in low temperature and stage II in high temperature regions, during continuous aging. The case of hardening in stage I was due to the formation of the Llo type face centered tetragonal PdCu-ordered phase in the grain interior and hardening in stage I was affedted by the Cu concentration. In stage II, decomposition of the $\alpha$ solid solution to a PdCu ordered phase(L1o type) and an Agrich ${\alpha}2$ phase occurred and a discontiunous precipitation occurred at the grain boundary. Form the electron microscope study, it was concluded that the cause of age-hardening in this alloy is the precipitation of the PdCu ordered phase, which has AuCu I type face-centered tetragonal structure. Precipitation procedure was ${\alpha}\to{\alpha}+{\alpha}2+PdCu\to{\alpha}1+{\alpha}2+PdCu$ at Pd/Cu = 1 Ag-Pd-Cu alloy is more effective dental alloy as ageing treatment and is suitable to isothermal ageing at $450^{\circ}C$.
