c-BN films were deposited on SKH-51 steels by electron assisted hot filament CVD method and microstructure development was studied processing parameters such as bias voltage, temperature, etching and phase transformation at boundary layer between BN compound and steel to develop a high performance wear resistance tools. A negative bias voltage higher than 200V at substrate temperature of $800^{\circ}C$ and gas pressure of 20 torr in B2H6-NH3-H2 gas system was one of optimum conditions to produce c-BN films on the SKH-51 steels. Thin layer of hexagonal boron nitride phase was observed at the interface between c-BN layer and substrate.

At present the processes of boronizing have been mostly studied in a plasma from gaseous compounds containing the impregnating element and are in an industrial use. These have been investigated by a variety of works in a glow discharge with different mixture ratios of $B_2H_6$ and $H_2$ as well as $BCl_3$ and $H_2$. The active atomosphere has been diluted by Ar or some other inert gas in order to enhance control of boron potential and to reduce the ignition voltage of the glow discharge. The Control of gaseous atomosphere is essential to a boride layer in plamsa boronizing treatment. The boride formation is required to make the workpiece surface saturated with boron content. The present study considers the efficiency of plasma boronizing reactions and the morphology of boride layer under various plasma conditions

The influences of B and Si in the filler metals on microstructure and isothermal solidification during transient liquid-phase (TLP) bonding of a nitrogen-containing duplex stainless steel with MBF-30 (Ni-4.5wt.%Si-3.2wt.%B) and MBF-35 (Ni-7.3wt.%Si-2.2wt.%B), were studied at the temperature range of $1030-1090^{\circ}C$ with various times from 60 s to 3600 s under a vacuum of approximately $10^{-5}$ Torr. In case of the former, BN, $Ni_3B$ and $Ni_3Si$ precipitates were formed in the bonding region. BN and $Ni_3Si$ secondary phases were present in the joint for the latter case. The formation of $Ni_3B$ within the joint centerline is dependent on B content. The morphology of $Ni_3Si$ is dominated by Si concentration. A difference between the times for complete isothermal solidification obtained by the experiments and the conventional TLP bonding diffusion model was observed when using MBF-35. According to the simulated results, the isothermal solidification completion time for MBF-35 case was smaller than that in MBF-30. However, this experimental value obtained using MBF-35 was notably larger than that obtained using MBF-30. Isothermal solidification of liquid MBF-30 is controlled by the first isothermal solidification regime dependent on B diffusion model, whereas that of liquid MBF-35 experiences two isothermal solidification regimes and is mainly controlled by the second isothermal solidification dependent on Si diffusion model. In addition, only if Si content exceeds a critical value, the slower 2nd solidification regime will commence.

Stainless 630 (or 17-4PH) is a precipitation-hardening martensitic stainless steel that has excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. These characteristics make the STS630 to be used as a consisting material for various components such as spider, pin, spring, and spring retainer, of the control rod drive mechanism (CRDM) in pressurized water reactors (PWRs). In general, it is well known that the oxide layer of stainless steel consists of a duplex layer, a compact inner layer of FeCr₂O₄ spinel, and a coarse-grained outer layer of Fe₃O₄ spinel in PWR primary coolant condition. However, the characteristics of the oxide layer can be sensitively influenced by various water chemistry conditions such as temperature, dissolved oxygen, dissolved hydrogen, pH, pH adjuster type, and exposure time. In this work, we investigate the corrosion properties of the STS630 as a function of coolant temperature in an NH3 alkaline solution for its boron-free application in a small modular reactor, to confirm the feasibility for usage as a boron-free SMR structural material. As a result, oxide layer of corroded STS630 is consist of double-layer oxides consisting of a Cr-rich dense inner oxide and a Fe-rich polyhedral outer particles like as that in commercial PWR primary coolant. The corrosion rate of STS630 increases with increase in test time and temperature and the corrosion rate-time model equation was developed based on experimental data. Overall, it is expected that the results in this study provides useful data for the corrosion behavior of STS630 in alkaline environments, contributing to the development of selecting suitable materials for SMRs.

Brazing is an indispensable manufacturing technology for liquid rocket engine. In this study, for LRE injector, stainless steel 316L was used of base metal and Ni based MBF-20 of insert metal. The brazing and diffusion was carried out under various conditions. There are solid phase and. residual liquid phase in the brazed joint. With increment of holding time, the amount of solid phase increased and the elements of base metal and insert metal compositionally graded. Boron diffused from insert metal came into base metal and made boride with Cr and Mo at the brazed joint of base metal and insert metal.

Recently the use of ultra high strength steels (UHSS) in structural and safety component is rapidly increasing in the automotive industry. For example, 1.5GPa grade hot stamping with die-quenching of boron steel 22MnB5 could apply crash-resistant parts such as bumpers and pillars. The development of laser welding process of hot stamping steels, fundamental bead-on-plate welding and lap joint welding test were carried out using 3kW Nd:YAG laser. Local hardening & HAZ softening occurred in hot stamping steel as a result of metallurgical change caused by the welding heat input in the Nd:YAG laser welding process. The size of soft zones in the hot stamping steel was related to the welding heat input, being smaller at high speeds which generated a smaller heat input. Also in the case of lap joint design structure, same welded characteristics were shown. The HAZ softening degree was controlled to ensure the joint strength.

An high frequency induction hardening technology of vehicle body press-formed of thin sheet steel has been developed to increase the strength of vehicle body parts locally by high frequency induction heating, thereby eliminating the need for reinforcements. And this technique for increasing the tensile strength of sheet steel was practically applied to the front floor cross member and center pillar reinforcement of a passenger car. The side impact behavior has been investigated when induction hardening technology is applied to the conventional low-carbon steel and weight reduction of an automotive body is expected. In this paper, basic experiments were performed for the hat-shaped specimen under high frequency induction heating process. Martensitic transformation was found in the heating zone through microscopic observation which showed higher hardness. In addition, the hardness and strength of the center-pillar specimen made of boron steel increased remarkably by high frequency induction heating.

Automotive companies have conducted a study for light weigh body and crash safety. But It is difficult to adapt a mass production because of formability with high strength steel in the conventional stamping process. Recently, Automotive maker in the Europe, USA, Japan has applied a hot stamping with boron steel in the body structure. Hot stamping technology spread fast in various body parts of automobile. Bumper beam has been applied in the foreign automotive company so much nowadays. In this study, We will optimize crash performance of bumper beam using hot stamping through comparison with conventional bumper beam.

The effect of reductants (Ti, Si, Al, Mn, Fe) addition into molten Borax has been studied on oxidation resistance and the growth of boronized layer formed during electro-boronizing on the substrate such as carbon steel and STS 430. Experiments have been carried out at the current density of 0.5 A/$\cm^2$ and in temperature range of 600~$1000^{\circ}C$ for 1~5 hours. The penetrated depth of the boron increased with addition of reductants (Ti, Si, Al) and decreased with addition of Mn and Fe. But excessive addition of reductants inhibited the boronizing due to an increase in viscosity of electrolyte. Oxidation resistance of the boronized carbon steel was improved but that of the boronized STS 430 decreased.
