The effects of coating thickness on the delamination and fracture behavior of thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems were investigated with cyclic flame thermal fatigue (FTF) and thermal shock (TS) tests. The top and bond coats of the TBCs were prepared by electron beam-physical vapor deposition and low pressure plasma spray methods, respectively, with a thickness ratio of 2:1 in the top and bond coats. The thicknesses of the top coat were 200 and $500{\mu}m$, and those of the bond coat were 100 and $250{\mu}m$. FTF tests were performed until 1140 cycles at a surface temperature of $1100^{\circ}C$ for a dwell time of 5 min. TS tests were also done until more than 50 % delamination or 1140 cycles with a dwell time of 60 min. After the FTF for 1140 cycles, the interface microstructures of each TBC exhibited a sound condition without cracking or delamination. In the TS, the TBCs of 200 and $500{\mu}m$ were fully delaminated (> 50 %) within 171 and 440 cycles, respectively. These results enabled us to control the thickness of TBC systems and to propose an efficient coating in protecting the substrate in cyclic thermal exposure environments.

본 연구에서는 Nano급 반도체 생산공정에서 필수적인 스피너(spinner) 설비의 감광액 도포(photo resist coating)시스템의 효율을 획기적으로 개선할 수 있는 새로운 완전스캔(Full-scan) 방식의 감광액 도포시스템(FPCS : Full-scan Photo-resist Coating System)을 개발하였다. 또한, 감광액의 미 도포로 인한 복합적인 공정불량을 예방하기 위하여 실시간(real-time)으로 상태요소들을 감시할 뿐만 아니라 상태요소의 비정상적 변화나 웨이퍼 가공불량이 발생할 경우 해당 유니트(unit)를 정지시킴과 동시에 원격지에 있는 엔지니어에게 경보를 전송함으로써 즉각적인 대처가 가능할 수 있도록 개발하였다.

There is a growing concern on the improvement of water distribution pipeline for multi-regional water supply system in Korea along with its aging infrastructure. Rehabilitation of large diameter pipeline is more efficient in cost and time compared to replacement with trenching. The procedure for rehabilitation are diagnosis, cleaning, spraying coating material, and final inspection. The internal state of pipeline was carefully diagnosed and got C grade, which required rehabilitation. We found that 17,274,787,000 Korean won could be saved after pipe surface coating because of increased C coefficient of Hazen-Williams equation. Optimal coating material was D polyurea. We also found optimal distance between spraying nozzle and pipe wall to be 70 - 80 cm, which were critical factors for coating quality. This study also illustrated the time for spray drying to be more than 30 min. These results could be used in the quality control process during rehabilitation of aged pipelines.

Ageing characteristics of RTV coating materials by corona discharge have been studied. The hydrophobicity recovery of RTV coating materials with 300${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thickness was identical with a bulk silicone materials. The RTV coating materials hydrophobicity has been almost lost when its were discharged during 40 seconds by corona discharge of 10㎸, and recovered after about 45 hours. The resistivity of RTV coating materials has not been recovered after 45 hours, though after 80 hours the initiation resistivity value has been recovered up to 95%. There was no critical change of compounds(such as Si and Al) on RTV surfaces by the corona discharge treatment until 100 seconds. In the test of arc erosion, it was seen that the coating sample with silicone rubber as a base material have more longer burn-out time than other samples with FRP or glass base.

Ni-5%Al alloy powder is widely used as the bond coating powder to improve the adhesive strength between the substrate and coating. The important properties in the bond coating are the deposition efficiency and surface roughness. In this study, it was tried to optimize the plasma spray parameters to maximize the deposition efficiency and surface roughness. In the first step, spray current and hydrogen gas flow rate were optimized in order to increase the deposition efficiency. In the next step, the seven plasma spray variables were selected and optimized to improve both the deposition efficiency and surface roughness using the Taguchi experimental method. By these optimization, the deposition efficiency was improved from about 10 % at the frist time to 51.2 % by the optimization of spray current and hydrogen gas flow rate and finally to 65.2 % by the Taguchi experimental method. The average surface roughness was increased from about $12.9\mu\textrm{m}$ to $15.4\mu\textrm{m}$.

In this paper, arc thermal spray coating was conducted onto the SS400 steel using Inconel 625 wires in order to improve the durability of marine steel structures, and then investigated cavitation damage behavior of Inconel 625 coating layer in sea water. For the Inconel 625 coating layer, surface hardness appeared similar to that of existing high velocity oxy-fuel coating technology with 380~480 HV, but the porosity of about 6 % was larger relatively. During the cavitation experiment, pit damages were originated and grown at the rough surface and pore defect area of Inconel 625 coating layer. And, after the 72 hours of experimental time, weight loss of Inconel 625 coating layer exhibited gradually increasing tendency due to surface damage effect of the undercut.

This paper is to investigate feasibility on quantitative aging state of epoxy coating on concrete wall in containment structure under operation of nuclear power plants. For evaluating the physical characteristics of the epoxy coating, adhesion strengths of two kinds of degraded epoxy coating systems on both steel surfaces and concrete surfaces were measured via accelerated aging. Comparatively impedance data taken by ultrasonic test were also taken to relate with adhesion data. After aging, in case of concrete, from half of specimens, aging of epoxy coating was developed. As for steel, on $4^{th}$ inspection day, adhesion force was failed. To improve reliability on quality degradation of epoxy, relationship between adhesion and impedance was analyzed. By tracing to co-respond to these data, it was possible to Fig. out physical state of as-built epoxy coating. The possibility to develop new methodology of time - dependent aging state on epoxy coating was found and discussed.

Laser weldability of the aluminized steel for the full penetration welding will be described in this paper. We focused on the effect of Al coating conditions on weld strength. For these objectives, aluminized steel sheets that have various thickness and coating weight were prepared for laser welding. And then, tensile-shear and hardness test were carried out. At the same time, Al contents in weld after laser welding were analyzed and their correlations with mechanical properties were investigated. Besides, as removing partially coating layer, weldability has been investigated according to the position of coating layer. As a result of this study, tensile-shear strength was decreased with increasing Al contents in weld, and Al of coating layer caused grain growth.

This article reports a experimental study of the method to achieve a bond joint at lower temperature in a short time. DC magnetron sputtering of Sn, Sn/Pb, Sn/In and Sn/Cu on copper substrate was provided as an interlayer for Cu to Cu bonding under the air environment. Various examination was conducted and investigated on the effect of experimental parameters such as coating materials, coating time(or coating thickness), bonding temperature and bonding time etc. Bonding was performed at the temperature of $210^\circC-320^\circC$ for 0sec and interfacial reaction between the coated layer and copper substrate was examined using optical, scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffractometer. From the obtained results, it was found that intermetallic compounds layer consisted of $\eta-phase(Cu_6Sn_5)$ and $\beta-phase(Cu_3Sn)$ was formed at the joint interface for almost all coating materials. But the dominant phase formed in the preetched Cu substrate coated with Sn was $\beta-phase$. A characteristic morphology looks like a reaction ring, which was believed as the strong interconnecting regions between two substrates, was found to be formed on the reaction surface of copper substrates. The morphologies and compositions of the intermetallics, which depends on the regions of the reaction surface, was appeared as greatly different. Based on above results, the new bonding process to make the joint at lower temperature for short time can be admitted as a feasible process.

Tool life characteristics were investigated for the TiN coated (PVD) tungsten carbide cutting tools to improve the tool life Experimental variables for Tin coating were coating time and cathode bias voltage and cuting variables were cutting speed and feel rate. As a experiment result, TiN coated tool was extended about from 2.14 to 2.7 times than that of not coated tungsten carbide tools. Also, coating thinkness is much affected to tool life.
