스테인리스강은 내식성과 내구성이 우수하여 파이프 및 일반 구조용 고온재료에 널리 사용된다. 그러나 선박 및 해양플랜트 등의 고부가가치 산업에 사용될 경우 내피로성, 내구성 및 내식성이 더욱 요구되고 있다. 특히 해수 환경 하에서 스테인리스강은 재료 표면의 부동태 피막 파괴로 공식 또는 틈부식에 의한 국부부식을 초래하여 해양환경용 재료로 사용하는데 제한적이다. 플라즈마 이온질화는 저온에서 열처리가 가능하며 재료의 변형이 없어 스테인리스강에 널리 적용되는 열화학적 표면처리 기술이다. 플라즈마 이온질화는 일반적으로 고온에서 실시하여 스테인리스강의 기계적 특성을 향상시키는 목적으로 주로 적용하였으나, 저온-플라즈마 이온질화 처리 시 질소의 확산계수 증가로 표면에 S-phase 생성에 기인하여 부식 저항성이 향상된다고 알려져 있다[1-2]. 그러나 해수 펌프, 밸브, 스트레이너(Strainer) 등의 해양 환경용 기자재로 널리 사용되고 있는 주조 스테인리스강에 대한 플라즈마 이온질화 적용과 그 연구는 미비하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 주조용 스테인리스강에 대하여 플라즈마 이온질화 기술을 적용하여 공정온도에 따른 해수 내 전기화학적 부식 특성을 규명하였다. 플라즈마 이온질화 공정은 $25%N_2$와 $75%H_2$ 비율로 $350^{\circ}C{\sim}500^{\circ}C$의 공정온도에서 10시간 동안 실시하였다. X-선 회절분석을 통해 공정온도 변수에 따른 표면에 형성된 질화층의 상변화를 분석하였다. 또한 비커스 경도계를 이용하여 표면경도를 측정하여 기계적 특성 향상을 확인하였다. 전기화학적 부식 실험 후 표면 손상 형상 관찰, 무게 감소량 및 손상 깊이 계측을 통해 공정 온도와 부식 저항 특성을 규명하였다. 또한 타펠 분석을 통해 모재와 플라즈마 이온질화 온도 변수에 따른 부식 속도를 비교 분석하였다.

In this study, PSf-$Al(OH)_3$ beads were prepared by immobilizating aluminum hydroxide $Al(OH)_3$ with polysulfone (PSf). The removal experiments of the fluoride ions by PSf-$Al(OH)_3$ beads were conducted batchwise and the parameters such as pH, initial fluoride concentration, and coexisting ions were investigated. The maximum removal capacity obtained from Langmuir isotherm was 52.4 mg/g and the optimum pH region of fluoride ions was in the range of 4 to 10. The removal process of fluoride ions by PSf-$Al(OH)_3$ beads was found to be controlled by both external mass transfer at the earlier stage followed by internal diffusion at the later stage. The presence of coexisting anions such as $HCO_3{^-}$, $SO{_4}^{2-}$, $NO_3{^-}$, and $Cl^-$ had a negative effect on removal of fluoride ions by PSf-$Al(OH)_3$ beads.

To investigate the migration behavior of contaminants in rocks. adsorption and diffusion experiments for Sr as a sorbing contaminant and for Cr-EDTA as a non-sorbing contaminant were carried out on granitic rocks. The Sr adsorption on separated minerals and crushed rocks tends to slightly increase with increasing pH. It also greatly decreases with the increase of ionic strength in NaCl solution. Among separated minerals, biotite and sericite have adsorbed much more amount of Sr than other rock-forming minerals, such as quartz, plagioclase, and potassic feldspar, because the specific surfaces and cation exchange capacities of phyllosilicates are generally much greater than those of the other rock-forming minerals. The intrinsic diffusion coefficients of Cr-EBTA for granitic rocks differ little from those of Sr. This indicates that they are independent of water-rock interactions. Experimental data show that the intrinsic diffusion coefficients are positively correlated with the porosities of the rocks. They are close to the theoretically predicted values, especially in pre-steady state diffusion region, with the increase of rock sample thickness.

This study presents experimental findings on the performance of cement concrete pavement incorporating mineral admixtures such as ground granulated blastfurnace slag and silica fume. Flexural strength, compressive strength, charge passed, diffusion coefficient of chloride ions and initial surface absorption of cement concrete pavement incorporating mineral admixtures were periodically measured and the corresponding results were compared to those of plain concrete pavement. As a result, strength behaviors of concrete pavement were dependent on the types of mineral admixtures. However, it was true that incorporation of silica fume had a beneficial effect on compressive strength development. Furthermore, the application of mineral admixtures led to a lower diffusion coefficient of chloride ions compared to plain concrete pavement. Based on the experimental results, the present study would be helpful to design high-performance cement concrete pavement.

In order to evaluate corrosion resistance of steel fiber-reinforced concrete, accelerated chloride migration and surface resistivity tests were conducted. In addition air content of fresh concrete, compressive strength and water absorption were measured for investigating fundamental characteristics of concrete. Two different water-cement ratios(0.44, 0.5) and three steel fiber contents(0.25%, 0.5%, 1%) were considered as variables. Note that all specimens cast with same compaction work. As a results, corrosion resistance decreased as steel fiber contents increased regardless of water-cement ratio when the concrete was compacted with same amount of work done. However, for concrete with same steel fiber content, the lower water-cement ratio showed the better corrosion resistance. It is found that enhancement of fluidity and enough compaction should be done for corrosion resistance of SFRC.

The RC buildings which are constructed on the seaside are followed by KBC(2016) to achieve the minimization of durability damage. To control the corrosion of the reinforcing steel bar by salt attack, W/C should be under 0.4 and specified concrete strength is higher than 35MPa in the concrete/building construction standard specification. Even though it has been proved that the concrete mixed with mineral admixture such as blast furnace slag and fly ash etc. have high strength and durability in previous researches, the beneficial informations are not applied to the codes. Ready-mixed concretes which usually include the admixtures in Busan were tested to certify the salt attack durability. In the same specified concrete strength, remarkable salt attack durability was evaluated in comparison to OPC. For economical and reliable durability design, chloride ion diffusivity should be measured before applying to new building construction.

Simulation method based on probability was developed to evaluate the durability of reinforced concrete structures about chloride attack. The effects of the probability parameters(surface chloride ion concentration, initial combined chloride ion concentration, the depth of cover thickness of concrete, and the chloride ion diffusion coefficient), probability distribution function and it's variation were calculated using the Monte Carlo method and Fick's 2nd law. From the durability design method proposed in this study, the following results were obtained. 1) The effects of the distance from the coast and the chloride ion diffusion coefficient to the corrosion probability were quite high. 2) The effect of the variation of each parameters was relatively low.

The water transport and water content of the electrolyte membrane greatly affect the performance of the membrane in PEMFC(Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell). In this study, the parameters (electroosmotic coefficient, water diffusion coefficient) of polymer membranes for water transport were measured by a simple method, and water flux and ion conductivity were simulated by using a model equation. One dimensional steady state model equation was constructed by using only the electro-osmosis and diffusion as the driving force of water transport. The governing equations were simulated with MATLAB. The electro-osmotic coefficient of $144{\mu}m$ thick polymer membranes was measured in hydrogen pumping cell, the value was 1.11. The water diffusion coefficient was expressed as a function of relative humidity and the activation energy for water diffusion was $2,889kJ/mol{\cdot}K$. The water flux and ion conductivity results simulated by applying these coefficients showed good agreement with the experimental data.

Among the deteriorating agents, chloride ion is reported to be one of the most harmful ions due to its rapid diffusion and direct effect on steel corrosion. Cold joint which occurs in mass concrete placing is vulnerable to shear resistance and more severe deterioration. The paper presents an quantitative evaluation of chloride diffusion coefficient in OPC(Ordinary Portland Cement) and GGBFS(Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) concrete containing cold joint. GGBFS concrete shows $6.6{\times}10^{-12}m^2/sec$ which is almost 30% level of OPC concrete results and the trend is repeated in the case of cold joint concrete. Compared with OPC concrete, GGBFS concrete is evaluated to have better resistance to chloride penetration, showing 0.30 times of chloride diffusion coefficient in concrete without cold joint 0.39 times with cold joint, respectively.

Characteristics of advective-diffusive transport of inorganic chemicals in clayey soils as well as in two hardened barrier materials of silica and lime are analyzed from the laboratory column test and compared with those of pure diffusive column test. The results show that the average dispersion coefficients of three materials are $4.39\times l0^{-10}\textrm{m}^2 /s,\; 1.98\times l0^{-10}\textrm{m}^2 /s,\; 1.99\times l0^{-10}\textrm{m}^2 /s$, respectively, and the value of clay is higher than that of hardened barrier materials. There was no significant difference between the dispersion coefficients of advective-diffusive column tests and the effective diffusion coefficients from the pure diffusive column tests, if advective velocity was lower than l0$^{-7}$$m^2$/s. The range of dispersion coefficients of advective-diffusive column tests was narrower than that of diffusion coefficients of pure diffusion tests.
