X-ray Compton 산란선의 강도를 측정하여 내지문처리재(Anti-fingerprint Steel)의 표면에 Coating 되어 있는 Silicone resin film의 두께를 신속하게 측정할 수 있는 새로운 분석방법을 연구하였다. Silicone resin과 같은 유기수지들은 C, H, O, Si 등과 같은 경원소들로 구성되어 있어 compton 산란선의 강도가 높게 나타나는데 이러한 성질을 이용, X-ray tube로부터 발생된 RhK$_{\alpha}$ 선을 시료표면에 조사한 후 발생된 RhK$_{\alpha}$ compton 산란선의 강도를 측정하여 silicone resin film의 두께를 구하였다. 검량곡선 작성결과 0.2 ~ 5.0 ${mu}$m 범위에서 직선성을 나타냈으며 두께측정에 대한 정확도는 0.22 ${mu}$m 이었다.

Electrodeposited zinc layer is widely used as a sacrificial anode for a corrosion protection of steel. In this study, we modified the surface of electrodeposited zinc to have a hydrophobicity, which shows various advanced functionalities, such as anti-corrosion, anti-biofouling, anti-icing and self-cleaning, due to its repellency to liquids. Superhydrophobicity was realized on electrodeposited zinc layer with a hydrothermal treatment, creating nanostructures on the surface, and following Teflon coating. The superhydrophobic surface shows a great repellency to water with high surface tension, while liquid droplets with low surface tension easily adhered on the superhydrophobic surface. However, immiscible lubricant-impregnated superhydrophobic surface shows a great repellency to various liquids, regardless of their surface tension. Therefore, it is expected that the lubricant-impregnated surface can be an alternative of superhydrophobic surface, which have a drawback for some liquids with a low surface tension.

This study aimed to evaluate hydrogen permeation behaviors of pre-strained twinning-induced plasticity steel with or without Zn coating using electrochemical permeation technique. In contrast to un-strained and 30% strained samples, permeation current density was measured in the 60% strained sample. Tensile pre-straining at 60% involved microstructural modifications, including a high level of dislocation density and stacking fault with a semi-coherent twin boundary, which might provide a high diffusion path for hydrogen atoms. However, reproducibility of measurements of hydrogen permeation current was low due to non-uniform deformation and localized stress concentration. On the other hand, the permeation current was not measured in pre-strained TWIP steel with Zn coating. Instead, numerous blisters with some cracks were observed on the surface of the coating layer. In locally damaged Zn coating under tensile straining, hydrogen atoms could relatively easily permeate through the coating layer. However, they were trapped at the interface between the coating layer and the substrate, which might delay hydrogen penetration into the steel substrate.

In electro-galvanizing line to manufacture the electro-galvanized steel sheet, polishing system is required to maintain clean surface of conductor roll and to secure the quality of the steel sheet. At the same time, prediction and decision of the replacement cycle for felt material and its brush installed in the polishing system is also important because the brush is directly contacted on the conductor roll surface. In this study, the polishing system has been designed which the brush is repetitive translating according to the longitudinal direction of the conductor roll. Furthermore, the prediction on the wear-life of the felt material used for the brush is performed using the contact pressure extracted by finite element analysis. And to verify the predicted wear-life of the felt material, the experimental study is also carried out. From the comparison result between the predicted and the measured wear-life of the felt material, it is presented that the wear-life and the replacement cycle of the felt material are well predicted by considering a wear compensation factor, and the wear compensation factor is useful and reasonable.

가공 송전선로의 아연도금 강심 알루미늄연선 도체들은 장기간 동안 대기오염에 의해 서서히 열화되었기 때문에, 2천년 대에 이르러 수많은 도체들이 예상된 유효수명을 초과하였다. 대부분의 도체들은 경제적인 운용 측면에서 현재 상태들을 평가하지 않으면 안되므로, 이 논문에서는 경년, 환경지표, 및 도체구조와 같은 중요 파라미터들을 사용하여 노화도체의 현재 상태를 평가하기 위한 방법을 제안하였다. 노화도체의 수명에 대응하는 열화등급을 예측하기 위한 진단 방법을 기술하였으며, 이 시스템은 전문가 지식과 경험을 토대로 적응 뉴로퍼지 추론시스템 (Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System)으로 설계하였다. 이 진단시스템을 국내의 송전선로에 적용하여, 이 시스템이 노화 ACSR 도체를 비파괴적으로 진단하고 경제적으로 운용하기 위한 방안으로서 효과적으로 사용될 수 있음을 밝혔다.

리드프레임에 구리합금소재를 사용할 경우 구리이외의 고농도의 철, 니켈, 아연 등이 포함되며 여기서 발생되는 에칭폐액은 지정폐기물로 지정되어 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 전기도금용 산화구리(II)를 제조하기 위해 고농도 중금속을 함유한 리드프레임 에칭폐액의 맞춤형 정제과정을 설계하였다. 리드프레임 에칭폐액의 경우 중금속 함유량이 높아 이온교환수지법 단독으로는 중금속을 제거하는데 한계가 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 물에 대한 용해도차를 이용한 환원-산화법을 연계하여 염화구리(I)을 제조한 후 산화제인 과황산나트륨을 이용하여 염화구리(II)로 재회수하는 방법을 사용하였다. 최적 환원제로는 하이드라진을 선택하였고, 최적 첨가량은 구리 1.0 mol당 1.4 mol이다. 환원-산화법과 이온교환수지법을 연결하여 중금속을 제거할 경우 3회 반복 시 $Fe^{3+}$ (4.3 ppm), $Ni^{2+}$ (2.4 ppm), $Zn^{2+}$ (0.78 ppm)로 전기도금용 산화구리(II) 제조용 원료로 사용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Hot-press forming(HPF) steel can be applied successfully to auto parts because of its superior mechanical properties. However, its resistances to aqueous corrosion and the subsequent hydrogen embrittlement(HE) decrease significantly when the steel is exposed to corrosive environments. Considering that the resistances are greatly dependent on the properties of coating materials formed on the steel surface, the characteristics of the corrosion and hydrogen diffusion behaviors regarding the types of coating material should be clearly understood. Electrochemical polarization and impedance measurements reveal a higher corrosion potential and polarization resistance and a lower corrosion current of the Al-coating compared with Zn-coating. Furthermore, it was expected that the diffusion kinetics of the hydrogen atoms would be much slower in the Al-coating, and this would be due mainly to the much lower diffusion coefficient of hydrogen in the Al-coating with a face-centered cubic structure. The superior surface inhibiting effect of the Al-coating, however, is degraded by the formation of local cracks in the coated layer under severe stress conditions, and therefore further study will be necessary to gain a clearer understanding of the effect of cracks formed on the coated layer on the subsequent corrosion and hydrogen diffusion behaviors.

The overall efficiency depend on the overpotential of the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline water electrolysis. Therefore, it is necessary to research to reduce the oxygen evolution overpotential of electrodes. In this study, Ni-Zn-Fe electrodes were prepared by electroplating and the surface area was increased by Zn leaching process. Electroplating variables were studied to optimize the plating parameters(electroplating current density, pH value of electroplating solution, Ni/Fe content ratio). Ni-Zn-Fe electrode, which is electroplated in a modified Watts bath, showed 0.294 V of overpotential at $0.1A/cm^2$. That result is better than that of Ni and Ni-Zn plated electrodes. As the electroplating current density of the Ni-Zn-Fe electrode increased, the particle size tended to increase and the overpotential of oxygen evolution reaction decreased. As reducing pH of electroplating solution from 4 to 2, Fe content in electrode and activity of oxygen evolution reaction decreased.

A study on the welding of electrogalvanized TRIP (Transformation-Induced Plasticity) steels was done to compare the life of the electrode and the alloying phenomena on the electrode tip surface using singlephase AC and inverter-DC resistance welding processes. A longer life of the electrode (>200 welds) was achieved using the inverter-DC welding process. The tensile shear strength was higher in the electrode life test when welded with the inverter DC welding machine it maintained a higher value even when the welding nugget diameter was smaller than specified. When spot-welding was conducted using the single-phase AC welding process, a higher wear rate of the electrode was observed compared to that with the inverter-DC process. An alloying layer used to determine the rate of electrode growth showed differences in the metallurgical features of the surface alloying and Zn penetration depending on whether the single-phase AC process or the inverter-DC welding process was used. Moreover, changes in the dynamic resistance during the electrode life test were correlated with the electrode wear (or growth) rate.

The conventional degreasing process involves removing oil and contaminants at temperatures above 80℃, resulting in excessive energy consumption, increased process costs, and environmental issues. In this study, we aimed to find the optimal degreasing conditions for the pre-treatment process of electro-galvanizing cold-rolled steel sheets, conducted efficiently at room temperature without the need for a separate heating device. To achieve this, we developed a room temperature degreasing solution and a brush-type degreasing tool, aiming to reduce energy consumption and normalize the decrease in degreasing efficiency caused by temperature reduction. Alkaline degreasing solution were prepared using KOH, SiO₂, NaOH, Na₂CO₃, and Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, with KOH and NaOH as the main components. To enhance the degreasing performance at room temperature, we manufactured additives including sodium oleate, sodium stearate, sodium palmitate, sodium lauryl sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, silicone emulsion, and EDTA-Na. Room temperature additives were added to the alkaline degreasing solution in quantities ranging from 0.1 to 20 wt.%, and the uniformity of degreasing and the adhesion of the galvanized layer were evaluated through Dyne Test, T-bending Test, OM, SEM, and EDS analyses. The results indicated that the optimal degreasing solution composition consisted of NaOH (30 g/L), Na₂CO₃ (30 g/L), SLS (6 g/L), and room temperature additives (≤1 wt%).
