Iron and copper are practically immiscible in the equilibrium state, even though their atomic radii are similar. As non-equilibrium solid solutions, the metastable Fe-Cu alloys can be synthesized using special methods, such as rapid quenching, vapor deposition, sputtering, ion-beam mixing, and mechanical alloying. The complexity of these methods (multiple steps, low productivity, high cost, and non-eco-friendliness) is a hinderance for their industrial applications. Electrical explosion of wire (EEW) is a well-known and effective method for the synthesis of metallic and alloy nanoparticles, and fabrication using the EEW is a simple and economic process. Therefore, it can be potentially employed to circumvent this problem. In this work, we propose the synthesis of Fe-Cu nanoparticles using EEW in a suitable solution. The powder shape, size distribution, and alloying state are analyzed and discussed according to the conditions of the EEW.

In this paper, we fabricated Cu/Mn alloy shunt resistor with low resistance and thermal stability for use of mobile electronic devices. We designed metal alloy composed of copper (Cu) and manganese (Mn) to embody in low resistance and low TCR which are conflict each other. Cu allows high electrical conductivity and Mn serves thermal stability in this Cu/Mn alloy system. We confirmed the elemental composition of the designed metal alloy system by using energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. We obtained low resistance below $10m{\Omega}$ and low temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) below $100ppm/^{\circ}C$ from the designed Cu/Mn alloy resistor. And in order to minimize resistance change caused by alternative frequency on circuit, shape design of the metal alloy wire is performed by rolling process. Finally, we conclude that design of the metal alloy system was successfully done by alloying Cu and 3 wt% of Mn, and the Cu/Mn alloy resistor has low resistance and thermal stability.

Nanostructured copper compounds were grown by electrochemical anodization of copper foil in aqueous NaOH under varying conditions including electrolyte concentration, reaction temperature, current density, and reaction time. Their morphology and atomic composition were investigated by using SEM, TEM, XRD, EDS and XPS. At the conditions ([NaOH] = 1 M, $20^{\circ}C$, $2\;mA\;cm^{-2}$), wire-like orthorhombic $Cu(OH)_2$ nanobundles with an average width of 100 - 300 nm and length of $10\;{\mu}m$ were synthesized with the preferential [100] growth direction. Furthermore, when the concentration decreased to 0.5 M NaOH, the 1D nanobundle structure became narrower and longer without any change in compositions or crystalline structure. Side reaction pathways appeared to compete with the 1D nanostructure formation channels: the formation of CuO nanoleaves at $50^{\circ}C$ via the sequential dehydration of $Cu(OH)_2$, CuO/$Cu_2O$ aggregates in 4 M NaOH, and $Cu_2O$ nanoparticles and CuO nanosheets at lower current density.

The contact tip for gas metal arc welding has important functions to transmit the welding current to the wire and to guide the wire to molten pool. If the contact tip is damaged, it is a cause of lowering the welding productivity due to removal of welding defects and replacement of contact tip. In case of the use of a contact tip for a long time the arc is unstable because the processed hole in the contact tip center is larger, and the variation of aiming position of the welding wire causes a seam tracking error. In this study, gas metal arc welding experiments using contact tip of three different materials were performed. The contact tips with Cu-P, Cu-Cr, and Cu-ODS were used at the experiments, and the welding characteristics by each contact tip were evaluated. After welding contact tip appearance, welding spatter adhesion amount of the nozzle, and weld bead appearance were evaluated. The welding current and welding voltage were measured to verify arc stability during arc welding.

The properties variation by deterioration of the 600V grade heat-resistant polyvinyl chloride insulated wire(HIV) was analyzed. The weight variation of the thermal deteriorated HIV was about 42% at 80$0^{\circ}C$ and over. From the analysis result of the metallurgical microscope photographs it shows that the sorface of normal wire showed the elongated structures. However the elongated structures did not appear at $900^{\circ} and over and we could observe that particles were grown. The grown oxidized substances in the thermally deteriorated electric wire were observed by SEM. The CuL, CuK, $CuK_b$, OK and CIK spectra of the thermally deteriorated HIV at $300^{\circ}C$ were uniform regardless of the scanning length, but the spectra of CIK could not found at above $700^{\circ}. At the DTA analysis, the endothermic reactions were occurred around $3006{\circ}C\; and\; 400^{\circ}C$ and the exothermic reactions were occurred around $470^{\circ}, respectively.

The technology of wire explosion have been used to product nanopowders. A new concept was proposed to produce metallic nanosized powders, which is wire explosion in liquid media. We have exploded the Ag or Cu wires of diameter of O.3mm, 40mm long, in the de-ionized water or acetone, respectively. Electrical energy of 1.1kJ was stored in 10uF capacitor and released to the wires through a triggered spark gap switch. The process was observed by high-speed camera. Those images showed that the powders were generated by vapor condensation in the shell formed by shock wave in the water. The particles were directly dispersed into the water with collapse of the shell. The sizes of Ag and Cu nanopowders were evaluated to 35nm and 17nm, respectively.

직경 $190{\mu}m$ Cu 와이어에 $Ni_{80}Fe_{20}$ 연자성 물질을 전기도금법으로 증착하여 금속 코어/연자성 쉘 구조의 복합 와이어를 제작하고 이 와이어에서 자기임피던스 효과(MI 효과)를 연구하였다. 원통 좌표계에서 복합 와이어의 임피던스 텐서의 두 대각 성분 $Z_{{\theta}{\theta}}$와 $Z_{zz}$는 z 방향으로 가한 자기장에 대해 큰 MI 효과를 나타낸 반면, 비대각 임피던스 $Z_{{\theta}z}$의 MI 효과는 매우 약하게 나타났다. 비대각 자기임피던스 효과가 큰 복합 와이어를 만들기 위해 비틀림 스트레인 하에서 전기도금하는 방법을 시도하였다. Cu 와이어의 한쪽 끝을 약 $270^{\circ}$ 이상 회전한 상태에서 전기도금 된 복합 와이어는 뚜렷하게 증대된 비대각 MI 효과를 보였으며 $360^{\circ}$ 회전한 상태에서 도금 된 와이어에서 최대의 비대각 MI 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 비대각 MI 효과가 큰 복합와이어를 제작하는 방법을 개발한 것은 금속 코어/자성 쉘 복합 와이어의 자기센서 소재로써의 응용가능성을 높일 것으로 기대된다.

Contact wire is one of the most important components supplying electricity to railroad cars. At the beginning of the research on contact wire, wear problem caused by friction between contact wire and pantograph was considered even more important issue for the failure of contact wire. However, since several fatigue fractures were reported from Shinkansen in Japan, fatigue fracture has become another important issue for the failure of contact wire. Despite of its importance, standard of the fatigue test of contact wire has not been established yet. Thus, fatigue characteristics of contact wire is very difficult issue to evaluate quantitatively. Hence, in this study, test method simulating operating conditions of contact wire by Minsung Kang and etc. is used to evaluate the fatigue characteristics of copper alloy contact wire. Also, test results is compared with the result of Minsung Kang's research on pure copper contact wire.

In this paper a new discharge type ozonizer comprising the superpose operation of silent and surface discharge is presented. The ozonizer consists of two concentric glass tubes with three type of discharge electrodes : the external electrode(EE), the internal electrode(IE) and the central electrode(CE). By varying the structure of IE and materials of CE, we analyzed the characteristics of ozone related different parameters including $O_{3con}$, $O_{3g}$, and $O_{3Y}$. Using Cu made CE it was found the O3con is higher with Cu tape than that with Cu coil wound IE. At Q = 1[l/ min] the values of O3con were found as 3000[ppm] with Cu tape wound IE and 1898[ppm] with Cu coil wound IE. Then using SUS wire made CE with Cu tape wound IE at Q = 1[ι/ min] the maximum value of O3con was found as 5632[ppm]. It was observed that both $O_{3con}$ and $O_{3y}$ are higher with SUS made CE than that with Cu made CE. The maximum values of $O_{3Y}$ were found as 79[g/kWh] with Cu made CE and 170[g/kWh] with SUS wire made CE.
