The lead frame, which is principal material used in semiconductor packaging, is required to be microscopic in leads and pitches to cope with miniaturization, thin film, large scale integrated. In addition, it is indispensable to eliminate residual stress and burrs occurring at manufacturing lead frames This thesis applied electrolytic abrasion in order to remove burrs and residual stress created during the stamp process. Electrolytic abrasion removed the burrs on the surface of lead frame. Removal of residual stress highly depends on the types of electrolyte solution. In case of perchloric system, electrolytic abrasion removed 23% of residual stress. Through removal of burrs and reducing residual stress, the reliability of lead frame was substantially improved.

EBSD(Electron BackScattered Diffraction)분석은 주사전자현미경에서 관찰되는 비교적 넓은 영역의 결정 방위를 측정하여 집합조직을 해석하는 동시에 결정 방위의 변화를 기준으로 결정립계를 구분 지어 미세조직의 정량 분석도 가능하기 때문에 많은 연구자들이 사용하고 있다. 그러나 EBSD의 Kikuchi 패턴은 시편 표면으로부터 30~50nm 깊이 범위의 표면층으로부터 방출되기 때문에 EBSD 분석 결과는 시편의 표면 처리 상태에 크게 영향을 받아 적절한 시편준비법이 요구된다. 시편 준비 과정 중에 생기는 변형층, 산화층이나 오염층이 10nm 이내로 제어되지 못하면 명확한 패턴을 얻지 못하여 분석이 어려운 경우가 많으므로, 시료의 절단과 연마 과정 중에 변형층을 되도록 적게 만들고 표면의 산화나 오염을 최대한 방지해야 한다. 또한 EBSD 분석 특성상 시편을 70도로 기울이기 때문에 시편의 요철이 심하면 볼록한 영역에 의해 오목한 영역의 패턴이 가려져 결정방위 정보를 얻기 힘들다. 이런 이유로 시편을 최대한 평평하게 하고 요철이 생기지 않게 시편 준비를 하는 것이 관건이다. 금속재료의 EBSD 시편준비법으로는 일반적으로 기계적 연마법과 전해연마법이 주로 쓰인다. 경한 석출물이나 개재물이 연한 기지에 분산되어 있는 시편이나 이종 소재 접합재의 경우는 전해연마법을 사용하면 특정 상(혹은 합금)이 먼저 연마되어 큰 단차가 생기거나 석출물에 의해 요철이 심해져서 정량적인 EBSD 분석이 어렵게 된다. 이 연구에서는 시편 준비가 어렵다고 알려진 다상 금속재료에서의 EBSD 분석 사례를 소개한다. Ti-6Al-4Fe-0.25Si 시효처리합금, 알루미늄 기지 복합재료, 마찰교반용접한 알루미늄-타이타늄합금의 EBSD 시편준비법과 그 분석 결과를 고찰한다.

Electropolishing, the anodic dissolution process without contact with tools, is a surface treatment method to make a surface planarization using an electrochemical reaction with low current density. Nitinol is a metal alloy composed of Ni and Ti around 50% respectively which has shape memory effect. Nitinol can be put various applications which require purity and high pricision surface of products. The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristic of electropolishing effect for nitinol workpieces. In order to analyze the characteristics of electropolishing effect, surface roughness and micro-burr size were measured in terms of machining conditions such as current density, machining time and electrode gap. The tendencies about improvement of surface roughness and deburring effect by electropolishing for nitinol workpieces were determined.

In this study, an EP (electro-polishing)-MAP (magnetic abrasive polishing) hybrid process was developed as a precision finishing process. To evaluate the characteristics of this EP-MAP hybrid process, a series of experiments were carried out using various working gaps, current densities, and electrolyte concentrations. As a result, $NaNO_3$ was found to be very suitable as the electrolyte of the hybrid process because there was no electrochemical reaction with the CNT-Co composite. Moreover, an increase in the magnetic flux density affected the liquidity of the electrolyte and prevented it from flowing into the CNT-Co composite powder. For that reason, the lower liquidity of the electrolyte increased the thermal energy on the surface of the workpiece.

The internal chromium plating of a long-axis tube is widely used in military and industrial application, with the thick hard plating formed using a mixed solution of Chromium acid and catalytic $H_2SO_4$. A large-caliber gun can endure a high explosive force as a result of the increased stiffness and wear resistance provided by this internal hard chromium surface. The internal chromium layer of a tube is prone to exfoliation caused by the high kinetic energy of the projectile and high pressure of the explosion. Therefore, we reviewed the plating process. Chromium plating comprises many steps, including the removal of Grease, water cleaning, electrolytic abrasion, etching, plating, water cleaning, and hydrogen brittleness removal. The exfoliated chromium plating layer is affected by the adhesion property of the plating. In particular, the Fe concentration of the electrolyte affects the adhesion property. The optimum Fe concentration for effectively suppressing the exfoliation of the plating layer was established by using a scanning electron microscope to determine the surface roughness, and the effectiveness was proved in an adhesion test, etc.

In last paper, it was suggested electrochemical polishing method using the point electrode tools. It was aimed that Machining rate in ECM using the point electrode method should be ultimately small and also high dimension accuracy and surface integrity should be fine. In this paper, the machining characteristics were investigated by using the several types of electrolyte.
