The effectiveness of TiN ion-plating was examined with TiN ion-plated Co-Cr wires(.016“, .016”x.022“) on three different types of bracket(TiN ion-plated metal bracket ceramic bracket and plastic bracket). Maximum static frictional forces and characteristic curves obtained from the frictional characteristic graph, were compared and surface roughness of wires and bracket slots before and after friction experiment was observed by SEM. The obtained results were as follows $\cdot$The frictional forces of TiN ion-plated wires were significantly lower than those of non ion-plated wires(p<0.05). $\cdot$On the effect of wire shape, the frictional forces of round wires were significantly lower than those of rectangular wires(p<0.05) $\cdot$As the result of the SEM observation on the wires and bracket slots after the friction experiment the surface of non ion-plated wires was rougher than that of TiN ion-plated ones. $\cdot$The difference between the static frictional forces and the kinetic frictional forces was not significant in case of the TiN ion-plated round ins, but the static frictional forces were a little higher than the kinetic frictional forces in the TiN ion-plated rectangular wires. $\cdot$The static frictional forces were much higher than the kinetic frictional forces in the case of non ion-plated wires.

In this paper, to produce sheet plasma with high density for ion plating, we designed magnetic circuit of ion plating device consisting of solenoid coil and rectangular permanent magnet. And, we analyzed the effects of the magnetic field distribution using FEM (Finite Element Methode). Additionally, we made a sputtering system including ion plating technique on the basis of the design and verified the possibility of the sheet plasma application for advanced sputter system.

This study was conducted to see the effect of TiN ion-plating on the bond strength of orthodontic bracket. Three stainless-steel brackets with different base types were chosen; when TiN ion-plated brackets and non iorrplated brackets were bonded to the teeth, initial and long-term bond strength were measured, The observations oi bonding surface and failure sites through the scanning electron microscope were analysed and compared. The summary of this study was as follows; ${\cdot}$ When TiN ion-plating was not applied, the Micro-Loc type was the highest in bond strength atter 24 hours as $5.89{\pm}1.77$ MPa, followed by $4,27{\pm}1.12MPa$ for Foil Mesh type and $2.64{\pm}0.58MPa$ for Undercut type(P<0.05). ${\cdot}$ Under TiN ion-plating, the bond strength after 24 hours showed: Micro-Loc type $-6.26{\pm}1.51MPa$, Foil Mesh type $-7.45{\pm}2.01MPa$, Undercut type $-2.93{\pm}0.84MPa$. Unlike in the case of non ion-plating, Foil Mesh type showed a higher strength than Micro-Loc type, with Undercut type still showing the lowest bond strength(P<0.05). The bond strength, after 24 hours, increased in case of ion-plated in all 3 types, but a significant increase was shown only in Foil Mesh type(P<0.001). ${\cdot}$ Under a long-term immersion, regardless of ion or non ion-plating, bond strength in general increased over the initial bond strength(one day), with more stability. ${\cdot}$ Through scanning electron microscopic observation of bonding surface, it was found that, regardless of the bracket base type or the application of ion-plating, the resin was thoroughly spreaded into bracket base to form a solid bonding surface between the bracket and the tooth. This was also true in case of a long-term immersion. ${\cdot}$ The scanning electron microscopic observation of failure sites revealed diverse failure patterns.

The purpose of this study was to estimate the possibility of practical application of TiN ion-plating method on orthodontic appliances. TiN was coated on the surface of orthodontic stainless steel roll band by means of ion-plating method, and colorimetric properties of its obtained TiN film were investigated by using color analyzer. Also its corrosion and discoloration properties were compared with those of non ion-plated stainless steel roll band by using immersion test, which was done in 1N HCl solution for 10 days. Both weight changes and surface corrosion appearances of specimens for each day were respectively investigated by using electronic weighing machine and SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope). The discoloration degress of TiN-coated specimens immersed in 1N HCl solution were investigated by using color analyzer and then judged by N.B.S.(National Bureau of Standard) Unit. The results of this study were summarized as follows. o TiN ion-plated films showed the hue of 5Y, the value of 7, and the chroma of 3 by Munsell notations. o The weight losses and surface changes of TiN ion-plated specimens immersed in 1N HCl solution were less than those of non ion-plated specimens. It was shown, therefore, that the corrosion resistance was significantly improved by TiN ion-plating. o The discoloration degrees of non ion-plated specimens were too significant to be examined by color analyzer, while those of TiN ion-plated specimens were slight when judged by N.B.S. Unit. It was also apparent, therefore, that the anti-discoloration property was significantly improved by TiN ion-plating.

In this work, the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane was used in a electrodialysis apparatus to treat a Ni planting rinse water because the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane was excellent efficiency as compared with low manufacturing cost, was easy to make, and had a good mechanical properties. For a regeneration of membrane and to obtain the optimal condition for a scale-up of apparatus after treating Ni plating rinse water, we would find about the limiting current density and the concentration polarization. When the Ni plating rinse water 150mg/L was treated with the electrodialysis apparatus using the heterogeneous ion exchange membrane, the limiting current density was about $1.49{\;}mA/\textrm{cm}^2$. And the limiting current density increased with the flow rate and concentration of Ni plating rinse water. We recognized that the used membrane could be reused by periodic backwashing because efficiency was constant when the membrane was backwashed after treating wastewater.

To estimate the possibility of the application of TiN ion-plating to the orthodontic appliance, colorimetric properties, and characteristics of ion-plated film as well as adhesive strength of TiN film to the substrate and mechanical properties of ion-plated orthodontic appliance were investigated. The obtained results were as follows: 1) TiN ion-plated film had the colorimetric properties which were the hue of about 2.5 Y, the brightness of about 6, and the chroma of about 4 by the standard color chip of JIS. 2) TiN ion-plated film was $2{\mu}m$ in thickness and its deposition pattern was rather irregular. 3) TiN phase was confirmed on the X-ray diffraction pattern. 4) Critical load for delamination of ion-plated film from stainless steel band was 10N. 5) Tensile and yield strength of ion-plated specimen was increased about 10Kg $f/mm^2$, while elongation was decreased $1\%$ compairing to the values of the non ion-plated specimen.

Al films on cold-rolled steel sheet have been prepared by vacuum evaporation and arc-induced ion plating, respectively, and the evaporation rate and vapor distribution (thickness distribution over the substrate) have been investigated according to deposition conditions. The arc-induced ion plating (AIIP) method have been employed, which makes use of arc-like discharge current induced by ionization electrode located near the evaporation source. The AIIP takes advantage of high ionization rate compared with conventional ion plating, and can be carried out at low pressure of less than $10^{-4}$ torr. Very high evaporation rate of more than 2.0 mu\textrm{m}$/min could be achieved for Al evaporation using alumina liner by electron beam evaporation. The geometry factor n for the $cos^{n/\phi}$ vapor distribution, which affects the thickness distribution of films at the substrate turned out to be around 1 for vacuum evaporation, while it features around 2 or higher for ion plating. For the ion plated films, it has been found that the ionization condition and substrate bias are the main parameters to affect the thickness distribution of the films.
