Results ar presented of a new process for internal precision finishing of slender fine ceramic pipes using a magnetic field generated by a permanent magnets. For finishing the interior surface of a long pipe, a new type of finishing equipment was developed which can be very easily used in an industrial surrounding. In general, the pipe is so slender that a conventional finishing tool is hardly inserted into the pipe deeply, being impossible to finish. Therefore, a new technology has been considered to finish inside of a slender ceramic pipe by a simple technique. In this experimental, Magnetic Abrasive Machining is applied for the inner surface of silicon nitride fine ceramic pipe using ferromagnetic particles mixed with chromium-oxide powder. It is shown the initial roughness of 2.6㎛ Ry(0.42㎛ Ra) in the inside surface can be precisely finished to the roughness of 0.1㎛ Ry(0.01㎛ Ra). This paper discusses the outline of the processing by the application of magnetic abrasive machining and a few finishing characteristics.

Magnetic abrasive polishing is an advanced deburring process for nonmagnetic materials and micropattern products that have non-machinability characteristics. Despite these advantages, there are some problems with using MAP for deburring. MAP has introduced geometric errors into microgrooves because of an over-cutting force caused by uncontrolled magnetic abrasives in the MAP tool. Thus, in this study, to solve this problem, an EP (electrolyte polishing)-MAP hybrid polishing process was developed for deburring microgrooves in an STS316 material. In addition, an evaluation of EP-MAP for the deburring of microgrooves was carried out by profiling the burrs. The results of the experiment showed geometric errors after the deburring process using MAP. However, in the case of EP-MAP, no geometric error was observed after the process because of the lower material removal rate in EP-MAP.

An internal finishing process by the application of magnetic abrasive machining has been developed as a new technology to obtain a fine inner surface of pipe. In this paper, a slurry circulation system was designed and manufactured. Its finishing characteristics was experimently investigated by various effective factors such as dry, water flow, oil flow with a slurry. From the experimental results, it was found that the materal removal and surface roughness were good in oil flow with slurry. The slurry circulation system is effective on the internal finishing of non-ferromagnetic pipe(SUS304).

An internal finishing process by the application of magnetic abrasive machining has been developed as a new technology to obtain a fine inner surface of pipe. In this paper, the finishing process of a non-ferromagnetic pipe by a static magnetic field method is introduced and its finishing characteristics is discussed with effective factors by various experiments. From these experimental results, it is found that the proper suppling quantity of magnetic abrasives per diameter of pipe is important, and the inner surface roughness of pipe is not changed much after certain critical finishing time. As a result of this investigation the 3.2$\mu$m Rmax in inner surface roughness of stainless steel pipe is improved to 0.7$\mu$m Rmax after 6 minutes finishing.

The magnetic abrasive machining has been developed as a new finishing technology to obtain a fine surface of workpiece. In this paper, a static magnetic field method and a magnetic abrasive brush which has many technical advantages, are applied for the magnetic abrasive machining. In the experiment, some items such as finishing time, ratio of the magnetic abrasives to Fe-powder, motor revolutions per minute, and motor ratio revolutions per minute are tested. The results of this study have shown the fact that the burr height is mostly affected by the finishing time and the abrasive ratio. Also, it has been found that the magnetic abrasive machining is a possible new technology for the deburring.

CMP (Chemical-Mechanical Planarization) 공정이란 화학적 반응과 기계적 힘을 동시에 이용하여 표면을 평탄화하는 공정으로, 반도체 산업에서 회로의 고집적화와 다층구조를 형성하기 위해 CMP 공정이 도입되었으며 반도체 패턴의 미세화와 다층화에 따라 CMP 공정의 중요성은 더욱 강조되고 있다. CMP 공정은 압력, 속도 등의 공정조건과, 화학적 반응을 유도하는 슬러리, 기계적 힘을 위한 패드 등에 의해 복합적으로 영향을 받는다. CMP 공정에서, 폴리우레탄 패드는 많은 기공들을 포함한 그루브(groove)를 형성하고 있어 웨이퍼와 직접적으로 접촉을 하며 공정 중 유입된 슬러리가 효과적으로 연마를 할 수 있도록 도와주는 역할을 한다. 하지만, 공정이 진행 될수록 그루브는 손상이 되어 제 역할을 하지 못하게 된다. 패드 컨디셔닝이란 컨디셔너가 CMP 공정 중에 지속적으로 패드 표면을 연마하여 패드의 손상된 부분을 제거하고 새로운 표면을 노출시켜 패드의 상태를 일정하게 유지시키는 것을 말한다. 한편, 금속박막의 CMP 공정에 사용되는 슬러리는 금속박막과 산화반응을 하기 위하여 산화제를 포함하는데, 산화제는 금속 컨디셔너 표면을 산화시켜 부식을 야기한다. 컨디셔너의 표면부식은 반도체 수율에 직접적인 영향을 줄 수 있는 scratch 등을 발생시킬 뿐만 아니라, 컨디셔너의 수명도 저하시키게 되므로 이를 방지하기 위한 노력이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 컨디셔너 표면에 연마 잔여물 흡착을 억제하고, 슬러리와 컨디셔너 표면 간에 일어나는 표면부식을 방지하기 위하여 소수성 자기조립 단분자막(SAM: Self-assembled monolayer)을 증착하여 특성을 평가하였다. SAM은 2가지 전구체(FOTS, Dodecanethiol를 사용하여 Vapor SAM 방법으로 증착하였고, 접촉각 측정을 통하여 단분자막의 증착 여부를 평가하였다. 또한 표면부식 특성은 Potentiodynamic polarization와 Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) 등의 전기화학 분석법을 사용하여 평가되었다. SAM 표면은 정접촉각 측정기(Phoenix 300, SEO)를 사용하여 $90^{\circ}$ 이상의 소수성 접촉각으로써 증착여부를 확인하였다. 또한, 표면에너지 감소로 인하여 슬러리 내의 연마입자 및 연마잔여물 흡착이 감소하는 것을 확인 하였다. Potentiodynamic polarization과 EIS의 결과 분석으로부터 SAM이 증착된 표면의 부식전위와 부식전류밀도가 감소하며, 임피던스 값이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 컨디셔너 표면에 SAM을 증착 하였고, CMP 공정 중 발생하는 오염물의 흡착을 감소시킴으로써 CMP 연마 효율을 증가하는 동시에 컨디셔너 금속표면의 부식을 방지함으로써 내구성이 증가될 수 있음을 확인 하였다.

Magnetic abrasive polishing is one of the nontraditional machining technologies newly developed. But it was very difficult to cut non-magnetic materials using MAP process because the process was fundamentally possible by help of a magnetic farce. In this study, we aimed to verify analytically formation of the magnetic field in a case of the nonmagnetic materials especially focused on an aluminum alloy. And also an improving strategy of the magnetic force for the non-magnetic materials was proposed and experimentally verified. Design of experimental method was adopt for assessment of parameters' effect on the MAP results of the aluminum alloy.
