The effects of aluminum nanoparticles (AlNs) on the thermal decomposition of ammonia perchlorate (AP) were investigated by DSC, TG-DSC and DSC-TG-MS-FTIR. Addition of AlNs resulted in an increase in the temperature of the first exothermic peak of AP and a decrease in the second. The processing of non-isothermal data at various heating rates with and without AlNs was performed using Netzsch Thermokinetics. The dependence of the activation energy calculated by Friedman's isoconversional method on the conversion degree indicated the decomposition process can be divided into three steps. They were C1/D1/D1 for neat AP, determined by Multivariate Non-linear Regression, and changed to C1/D1/F2 after addition of AlNs into AP. The isothermal curves showed that the thermal stability of AP in the low temperature stage was improved in the presence of AlNs.

Many surface protection methods have been developed to apply for constructional steels used under severe corrosive environment. Thermal spray coating has been known to be an attractive technique due to its relatively high coating speed. Furthermore high corrosion resistance of coated film with thermal spray is required to expand its application. Four types of coated films(DFT:300 um) such as pure zinc, pure aluminum and two Al-Zn alloy (Al:Zn=85:15 and Al:Zn=95:5) onto the carbon steel (SS401) were prepared with arc spray, and the corrosion behavior of their samples were evaluated by electrochemical method in this study. Pure aluminum sample showed high corrosion resistance behavior exposed to sea water solution and pure zinc and alloy (Al:Zn=95:5) samples followed pure aluminum sample. The other alloy(Al:Zn=85:15) so called galvalume coated onto the carbon steel ranks the 4th corrosion resistance in this study. The results of porosity ratio of those samples by observation are well matched with the electrochemical data.

We carried out anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) on a Si and a sapphire substrate. For anodic oxidation of Al two types of specimens prepared were Al(0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$)!Si and Al(0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$)/Ti(0.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$)$SiO_2$(0.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$)/GaN(2 $\mu\textrm{m}$)/Sapphire. Surface morphology of Al film was analyzed depending on the deposition methods such as sputtering, thermal evaporation, and electron beam evaporation. Without conventional electron lithography, we obtained ordered nano-pattern of porous alumina by in- situ process. Electropolishing of Al layer was carried out to improve the surface morphology and evaluated. Two step anodizing was adopted for ordered regular array of AAO formation. The applied electric voltage was 40 V and oxalic acid was used as an electrolyte. The reference electrode was graphite. Through the optimization of process parameters such as electrolyte concentration, temperature, and process time, a regular array of AAO was formed on Si and sapphire substrate. In case of Si substrate the diameter of pore and distance between pores was 50 and 100 nm, respectively. In case of sapphire substrate, the diameter of pore and distance between pores was 40 and 80 nm, respectively

In order to reduce the weight of automobile parts, automobile parts using aluminum alloy are being developed. Aluminum alloy for automobile parts is mainly made of Al6xxx (Al-Mg-Si) type alloy, which is excellent in hot forming property, and it can increase mechanical properties by the use of heat treatment. In this study, hot forming was performed using Al6082. Before the hot forming, the forming analysis was performed using the DEFORM-3D finite element analysis program in this case. For the forming analysis, the heat transfer coefficient was derived from the experiment, and the forming analysis was performed by applying it. At the forging analysis, the temperature of Al6082 material was set to 813K and that of the mold was set to room temperature. After the forging analysis, the experiment was performed, and the forging analysis and the experimental results were compared.

It's so difficult to obtain simultaneously both product quality and improvement of the productivity of which products are in hot aluminum extrusion process. But significant improvements in productivity and extrudate quality result from die cooling system using nitrogen gas injection during aluminum hot extrusion. These benefits are due primarily to cooling effect nitrogen gas and removal of excess heat in the extrudate temperature. This investigation is carried out hot extrusion experiment, also compared cooling system with non-cooling system to inspect cooling effects on hot aluminum extrusion. The purpose of this investigation is estimated the grain growth fur the extrudate quality, and the ram speed for the improvement of the productivity.

It was attempted to improve wear resistance and durability under the load surface pressure that make a formation of the thick (mm-order) hard-surfacing layer for aluminum alloy of 5083. The thick hard layers were formed on the surface of 5083 by TIG overlay method. Al-(25.4, 33.6, 45.7 mass%) Cu filler metals which were newly developed were overlaid on two base metals forming the one bead, one layer and two layers. The investigation was made on the characteristics of hardening and wear resistance in relation to the microstructure of overlaid layers with selection of optimum overlaying condition.

Al foil used was 99.9 and 99.99 %. Test solution used was NaCl solution. The noise was determined using controlled potential electrolysis at -200 and -700 mV vs. NHE. The current fluctuation was caused by breakdown and repaired process of aluminum oxide film. The current fluctuation value of noise was proportion to degree of growth. The number of noise was proportion to the number of pit. The examining of current flutulation value and number of noise could be evaluated corrosion. A 99.99 % Al foil was the mostly crystal of {100} plane, and showed three-dimensional, as azimuth pit with along the direction of this place piled up. A 99.9 % Al foil was polycrystal, and in order of (311) >(222) >(200) >(111) plane. The azimuth pit did not occurred as the dissolution was occurred from each plane.

Inorganic metal multi-layer(IMML) consisting of Al/Al:SiO/Al was developed as a cathode for OLED to reduce the reflectance generated from ambient light. Device structure of green OLED was ITO/2-TNATA/$\alpha$-NPD/$Alq_3$:C545T/Balq/$Alq_3$/LiF/IMML and IMML was composed of three different layers: thin aluminum layer, aluminum layer doped with silicon monoxide and thick aluminum layer. Average reflectance of green OLED was 9.63% while that of conventional OLED with or without polarizer showed the average reflectance of 8.54% and 66% respectively at visible range from 380 nm to 780 nm.

The use of blast hardened bulkheads (BHBs) is an effective vulnerability hardening technique for improving the survivability of naval warships when internal explosions occur due to being shot by an anti-surface missile. In this paper, a new concept of BHBs reinforced by aluminum (Al) foam is proposed. The new concept can significantly reduce the blast pressures transferred to bulkheads and, unlike conventional BHBs, can be easily installed to operating naval warships. Chamber model blast tests were performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Al-foam BHBs and the results are further supported by numerical simulations. Finally, a practical preliminary is proposed for the Al-foam BHBs.

Aluminum(Al) sputtering is best known method to form Al film for the Si wafer in the process of 180nm and above. In the Al metal line process, one of the frequently founded and well-known defect was metal depression. In this paper, several experiments were performed such as temperature, Ar gas flow rate, thickness change in other to reduce the metal depression and find the origination of metal depression. Through experiments, it is found that metal depression was significantly related to the temperature. And the Ar gas flow rate did not influence to the creation of depression. The off status ESC also showed stable metal film without depression by same mechanism of temperature decrease. Also, thickness is strongly influence to the metal depression.
