This paper describes the manufacturing process of tilting pad gas bearing with a diameter of 5 mm and a length of 0.5-1 mm for power MEMS (Micro Electomechanical Systems) applications. The bearing compacts with nanopowder feedstock were prepared by Ni-metal mold with 2-mold system using LIGA process. The effect of the manufacturing conditions on sintering properties of nanopowder gas bearing was investigated. In this work, Fe-45 wt%Ni nanopowder with an average diameter of 30-50 nm size was used as starting material. After mixing the nanopowder and the wax-based binders, the amount of powder was controlled to obtain the certain mixing ratio. The nanopowder bearing compacts were sintered with 1-2 hr holding time under hydrogen atmospheres and under temperatures of $600^{\circ}C$ to $1,000^{\circ}C$. Finally, the critical batch of mixed powder system was found to be 70% particle fraction in total volume. The maximum density of the sintered bearing specimen was about 94% of theoretical density.

In order to investigate the microstructure and mechanical properties of WC-10 wt% Co insert tool alloy fabricated by PIM (Powder Injection Molding) process, the feedstock of WC-10 wt% and wax used as a kind of binder were mixed together by two blade mixer. After injection molding, the debinding process was carried out by two-steps. First, solvent extraction, in which the binder was eliminated by putting the specimen into normal hexane for 24 hrs at $60^{\circ}C$, and subsequently thermal debinding which was conducted at $260^{\circ}C$ and $480^{\circ}C$ for 6 hrs in the mixed gas of $H_2/N_2$, respectively. Meantime, in order to compensate the decarburization due to hydrogen, 1.2~1.8% of carbon was added to ensure the integrity of the phase. Finally, the specimens were sintered in vacuum under different temperatures, and the relative density of 99.8% and hardness of 2100 Hv can be achieved when sintered at $1380^{\circ}C$, even the TRS is lower than the conventional sintering process.

An investigation was conducted to find out formation and is mechanism of kaolinite from pyrophyllite under hydrothermal conditions. First, a pyropyllite sample from the Heenam district, Korea, was activated by heat-treating at $400^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs. The kaolinite powder was successfully obtained by subjecting the dried feedstock to autoclaving at $200^{\circ}C$, 15atm, pH<1 for 5days with addition of 17.4mol/l $AlCl_3$. Evidently, the $AlCl_3$ addition as a mineralizer strongly promoted incorporation of $Al^{3+}$ ion into pyrophyllite structure which was subdequently converted into kaolinite. It also indicated that the formation of octahedral feed solution. The final pH of the solution was decreased to ~0.3. The transformation reaction was not noticeably accelerated when 10wt% natural kaolinite was added as the seeds, suggesting that the transformation was not reconstructional, but substitutional type.

분말 입자 형태가 다른 2가지 스테인레스 강(SUS 316L)분말과 조성이 다른 2가지의 결합제를 이용하여 분말충전율의 변화를 가지도록 제조된 5가지 분말사출재에 대한 Bagley 보정 실험을 실시하여 Bagley 보정값에 대한 온도, 분말충전율, 분말 입자 형태 그리고 결 합제의 영향을 조사하였다. Bagley 보정값을 구하기 위한 자료 처리를 하는 과정에서 길이 가 긴 모세관(L/D=60) 의 압력손실이 Thixotropy에 의해서 감소한 현상을 발견하였다. 이는 모세관 점성측정기를 이용한 분말사출제의 점도 측정시 길이가 긴모세관의 사용이 바람직하 지 못하다는 것을 나타낸다. 분말사출재의 Bagley 보정값에 대한 온도와 결합제의 영향은 매우 미약하게 나타났는데 특히 결합제의 영향은 거의 나타나지 않는 것을 발견하였다. 분 말충전율과 분말 입자 형태의 Bagley 보정값에 대한 영향은 매우 크게 나타났으며 분말충 전율이 증가할수록 Bagley 보정값이 증가하고 분말 입자의 형태가 불규칙한 분말을 사용한 분말사출재의 보정값이 구형의 분말에 비해 높은 보정값을 나타냈다. 실험결과에 대한 고찰 결과, 분말사출재의 모세관 입출구에서 압력손실의 주 원인은 분말 이자간 마찰과 충돌이라 고 판단되었다.

In this study, the consolidation and casting processes of fine Si powders, by-products of making high purity Poly-Si rods in the current method, were systematically investigated for use as economical solar-grade feedstock. Morphology, size, and contamination type of the poly-Si fine powders were inspected by combined analysis of SEM, particle size analyzer, and FT-IR. Poly-Si powder compacts were tried to fabricate by a consolidation process without a binding agent and then their density ratio and strength were evaluated. Finally, the electrical resistivity of the specimens prepared by an electromagnetic casting method was examined for purity assessment.

스테인레스 강(SUS 316L) 분말과 왁스계 결합제를 혼합하여 제조한 분말사출재의 유변학적 특성을 낮은 전단율에서 측정하기 위해 동심원반식 점성측정기를 이용하여 실험을 실시하였다. 측정기 벽면에서 발생하는 벽면 슬립(Slip)을 확인하고 벽면 슬립을 보정하기 위하여 두가지의 원반 간격에서 측정된 실험 자료를 이용하여 벽면 슬립을 보정하는 방법을 채택하였다. 실험 중, 측정 전단율범위를 제한하는 Thixotropy 현상을 발견학고 이에대한 원인분석을 위한 실험을 진행한 결과 과도한 전단응력에 의해서 분말사출재로부터 분리되어 나온 슬립층이 내부로 빠르게 흡수되어 들어가지 못하고 잔류하면서 Thixotropy 현상을 발 생시키는 것으로 판단되었다. Thixotropy 현상이 발생하지 않는 범위를 조사한후, 제한된 범위내에서 분말사출재의 유변학적 특성을 측정하였다. 측정된 자료는 항복응력을 지니는 유체의 특성을 표현하는 Bingham 식의 변형식에 잘 근사 되었으며, 슬립속도를 실험결과로 부터 계산한 결과 전단응력에 따라 선형적인 관계를 가지고 있는 점과 항복응력의 존재를 정성적으로 보여주는 결과를 얻었다.

Thermal spraying onto the metal substrate has been widely used as a technique of the surface treatment in the various industrial field. A wide range of thermal spray technologies exist and all rely on the fundamental process of fusing a metal feedstock, atomizing it and transporting it to the surface of a substrate. Specially, these methods have been taken into account as the protection method against the corrosion. In this study, the polarization characteristics were carried out on the thermal sprayed coating layer immersed in various pH of diluted aqueous solutions at $25^{\circ}C$. Aluminum, Zinc, Ni-base alloy, alumina and polyethylene powder were used with sprayed coating materials. From the polarization curves, the electrochemical corrosion potential($E_{corr}$) and the corrosion current density($I_{corr}$) were investigated.

A T-800 (Co-Mo-Cr) coating material is fabricated using Co-Mo-Cr powder feedstock and laser cladding. The microstructure and melted Al erosion properties of the laser-cladded T-800 coating material are investigated. The Al erosion properties of the HVOF-sprayed MoB-CoCr and bulk T-800 material are also examined and compared with the laser-cladded T-800 coating material. Co and lave phases (Co₂MoCr and Co₃Mo₂Si) are detected in both the laser-cladded T-800 coating and the bulk T-800 materials. However, the sizes of the lave phases are measured as 7.9 ㎛ and 60.6 ㎛ for the laser-cladded and bulk T-800 materials, respectively. After the Al erosion tests, the erosion layer thicknesses of the three materials are measured as 91.50 ㎛ (HVOF MoB-CoCr coating), 204.83 ㎛ (laser cladded T-800), and 226.33 ㎛ (bulk T-800). In the HVOF MoB-CoCr coating material, coarse cracks and delamination of the coating layer are observed. On the other hand, no cracks or local delamination of the coating layer are detected in the laser T-800 material even after the Al erosion test. Based on the above results, the authors discuss the appropriate material and process that could replace conventional bulk T-800 materials used as molten Al pots.

In this study, we fabricate a thin- and dense-BCuP-5 coating layer, one of the switching device multilayers, through a plasma spray process. In addition, the microstructure and macroscopic properties of the coating layer, such as hardness and bond strength, are investigated. Both the initial powder feedstock and plasma-sprayed BCuP-5 coating layer show the main Cu phase, Cu-Ag-Cu₃P ternary phases, and Ag phase. This means that microstructural degradation does not occur during plasma spraying. The Vickers hardness of the coating layer was measured as 117.0 HV, indicating that the fine distribution of the three phases enables the excellent mechanical properties of the plasma-sprayed BCuP-5 coating layer. The pull-off strength of the plasma-sprayed BCuP-5 coating layer is measured as 16.5 kg/㎠. Based on the above findings, the applicability of plasma spray for the fabrication process of low-cost multi-layered electronic contact materials is discussed and suggested.

In this study, a new manufacturing process for a multilayer-clad electrical contact material is suggested. A thin and dense BCuP-5 (Cu-15Ag-5P filler metal) coating layer is fabricated on a Ag plate using a high-velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) process. Subsequently, the microstructure and bonding properties of the HVOF BCuP-5 coating layer are evaluated. The thickness of the HVOF BCuP-5 coating layer is determined as 34.8 ㎛, and the surface fluctuation is measured as approximately 3.2 ㎛. The microstructure of the coating layer is composed of Cu, Ag, and Cu-Ag-Cu3P ternary eutectic phases, similar to the initial BCuP-5 powder feedstock. The average hardness of the coating layer is 154.6 HV, which is confirmed to be higher than that of the conventional BCuP-5 alloy. The pull-off strength of the Ag/BCup-5 layer is determined as 21.6 MPa. Thus, the possibility of manufacturing a multilayer-clad electrical contact material using the HVOF process is also discussed.
