Recently a fuel oil of the diesel engine in the ship is being changed with low quality as the oil price is higher more and more. Therefore the wear and corrosion in all parts of the engine like cylinder liner ring groove of piston crown, spindle and seat ring of exhaust valve are increased with using of heavy oil of low quality In particular the degree of wear and corrosion in between valve spindle and seat ring are more serious compared to the other parts of the engine due to operating in severe environment such as the high temperature of exhaust gas and repeating impact. Thus the repair weld to the valve spindle and seat ring is a unique method to prolong the life of the exhaust valve in an economical point of view In this study. corrosion property of both weld metal zone and base metal was investigated with some electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, cathodic and anodic polarization curves, cyclic voltammogram and polarization resistance etc. in 5% $H_2SO_4$ solution. in the case of being welded with some welding methods and welding materials to the exhaust valve specimen as the base metal. In all cases. the values of hardness of the weld metal zone were more high than that of the base metal. And their corrosion resistance were also superior to the base metal. The weld metal of A2F(AC SMAW: 2 pass welding with foreign electrode) showed a relatively good results to the corrosion resistance as well as the hardness compared to the ether welding methods and welding materials. Moreover it indicated that hardness of the weld metal by the domestic electrode was considerably high compared to that of the foreign electrode.

Recently, high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS) has attracted considerable attentions due to its high potential for industrial applications. By pulsing the sputtering target with high power density and short duration pulses, a high plasma density and high ionization of the sputtered species can be obtained. HIPIMS has exhibited several merits such as increased coating density, good adhesion, microparticle-free and smooth surface, which make the HIPIMS technique desirable for synthesizing hard coatings. However, hard coatings present intrinsic defects (columnar structures, pinholes, pores, discontinuities) which can affect the corrosion behavior, especially when substrates are active alloys like steel or in a wear-corrosion process. Atomic layer deposition (ALD), a CVD derived method with a broad spectrum of applications, has shown great potential for corrosion protection of high-precision metallic parts or systems. In ALD deposition, the growth proceeds through cyclic repetition of self-limiting surface reactions, which leads to the thin films possess high quality, low defect density, uniformity, low-temperature processing and exquisite thickness control. These merits make ALD an ideal candidate for the fabrication of excellent oxide barrier layer which can block the pinhole and other defects left in the coating structure to improve the corrosion protection of hard coatings. In this work, CrN/Al2O3/CrN multilayered coatings were synthesized by a hybrid process of HIPIMS and ALD techniques, aiming to improve the CrN hard coating properties. The influence of the Al2O3 interlayer addition, the thickness and intercalation position of the Al2O3 layer in the coatings on the microstructure, surface roughness, mechanical properties and corrosion behaviors were investigated. The results indicated that the dense Al2O3 interlayer addition by ALD lead to a significant decrease of the average grain size and surface roughness and greatly improved the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the CrN coatings. The thickness increase of the Al2O3 layer and intercalation position change to near the coating surface resulted in improved mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. The mechanism can be explained by that the dense Al2O3 interlayer acted as an excellent barrier for dislocation motion and diffusion of the corrosive substance.

아민(암모니아 또는 MPA)은 가압경수로 원전 2차측 부식을 방지하는 최적 pH를 유지하기 위해 사용되고, 온도가 동일하게 유지되지 않는 물-증기 순환 영역에서 모든 아민은 평형상수에 따라 2차측에서 서로 다른 pH를 나타낸다. 부식제어에서 pH는 유일한 인자가 아니므로 두 번째 변수, 즉 불순물의 유입 또는 부식 반응으로 인해 $H^+$가 추가되거나 제거되었을 때 안정된 pH를 지속하는 능력인 완충세기의 고려가 필요하다. 온도를 고려한 완충세기는 2차측 최적 pH 제어제 선정과 유체가속부식의 특징을 기본적으로 이해할 수 있도록 한다. PWRs의 전체 운전범위에서 암모니아와 MPA의 완충세기를 조사하였다. 낮은 온도$(25{\sim}100^{\circ}C)$에서는 암모니아 그리고 높은 온도$(150{\sim}250^{\circ}C)$에서는 MPA가 부식 억제를 위한 충분한 완충세기를 나타내었다. 완충세기 측면에서, i) 최적 pH 제어제 pH 범위는 pH(T)- $1{\leq}pK_a(T){\leq}pH(T)$+0.5, ii) 아민 용액은 부식 억제를 위해 충분한 완충세기$({\beta})$를 가져야하고, iii) 최대 유체가속부식은 ${\beta}_B/{\beta}$ 비율이 최저인 온도에서 최대를 나타낸다.

Irradiation-assisted stress corrosion cracking (IASCC) is one of the main degradation mechanisms of austenitic stainless steels, which are used as reactor internal materials. Slow strain rate testing (SSRT) has been widely applied to evaluate the IASCC initiation characteristics of proton-irradiated tensile specimens. Tensile specimens require low surface roughness for micro-crack observation, and electropolishing is the most important specimen pre-treatment process used for this. In this study, optimal electropolishing conditions were examined through analyzing results of polarization experiments and surface roughness measurements after electropolishing. Corrosion cell and electropolishing equipment were fabricated for polarization tests and electropolishing experiments using SSRT specimens. The experimental parameters were electropolishing time, current density, electrolyte temperature, and stirring speed. The optimal electropolishing conditions for SSRT tensile specimens made of type 316 stainless steel were evaluated as a polishing time of 180 seconds, a current density of 0.15 A/cm², an electrolyte temperature of 60 ℃, and a stirring speed of 200 RPM.

Test results to evaluate the mechanical properties of epoxy-coated bars and corrosion protection characteristics of epoxy coating on the bars are described. The results show good adhesion and abrasion resistance satisfying the requirements in relevant standards. The test results also show that for a coating thickness ranging from 150${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ to 300${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, satisfactory results are obtained regarding bendability. Cautions shall be required when bending epoxy-coated bars at a high bending degree and at a low temperature. The results of accelerated corrosion tests show good corrosion resistance. However, surface defects from the steel itself and insufficient blast-clean process form weak points resulting blistering or disbonding of the coating. The use of epoxy-coated bars is expected to help protect corrosion of reinforcement and extend the service life of reinforced concrete structures.

The failure probabilities of pipes in nuclear power plants due to stress corrosion are obtained using the P-PIE program, which is developed for evaluating failure probability of pipes based on the existing PRAISE program. Leak, big leak and LOCA(loss of coolant accident) probabilities are calculated as a function of operating time for several pipes in a domestic nuclear plant. The sensitivity analysis is also performed to find out the important parameters for the failure of pipes due to stress corrosion. The results show that the steady state oxygen concentration and steady state temperature are important parameters and failure probability is very low when the oxygen concentration is maintained according to the regulation.

440A martensitic stainless steels which were modified with reduced carbon content (${\sim}$0.5%) and addition of small amount of nickel, vanadium, tungsten and molybdenum were manufactured. Effects of alloying elements and heat treatment on the pitting corrosion in 3.5% NaCl were investigated through the electrochemical polarization tests. The lowest pitting potential, $E_p$, was obtained when austenitizing temperature was $1250^{\circ}C$ and this is because of the grain coarsening. When austenitized at $1050^{\circ}C$ and tempered at $350{\sim}750^{\circ}C$, the highest $E_p$ was obtained at $350^{\circ}C$, while the lowest at $450^{\circ}C$ and $550^{\circ}C$ regardless of alloying elements added. But $E_p$ was increased a little at the tempering temperature of $450^{\circ}C$ and $550^{\circ}C$ when 0.4 wt.% of tungsten was added. More pitting was observed at $450{\sim}550^{\circ}C$, and pitting was formed at regions where Cr concentration is low or grain boundaries are intersecting and showed irregular shape.

The microstructures of the oxide scale developed at high temperature on steels are very complex and their development depends on many factors including time, temperature, oxidation conditions and alloying elements. The classical model of an oxide scale on steel consisting of wüstite, magnetite and haematite layers, is more complicated in reality and its properties change with the factors that affect their development. An understanding of the oxide scale formation and its properties can only be achieved by careful examination of the scale microstructure. The oxide scale microstructure may be difficult to characterise by conventional techniques such as optical or standard scanning electron microscopy. An unambiguous characterisation of the scale and the correct identification of the phases within the scale are difficult unless the crystallographic structure for each phase in the scale is considered and a simultaneous microstructure-microtexture analysis is carried out. In the current study Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) has been used to investigate the microstructure of iron oxide layers grown on low carbon steels at different times and temperatures. EBSD has proved to be a powerful technique for identifying the individual phases in the oxide scale accurately. The results show that different grain shapes and sizes develop for each phase in the scale depending on time and temperature.

Several oxide (ZrO2, Al2TiO5, reactive Al2O3) and nonoxide (SiC, Si3N4, "ALON" (5AlN.9Al2O3)) additives were used as a microfiller for alumina based LCC (Low-Cement-Castable). High temperature prooperties (HMOR, softening under load) and the phase changes of developed LCC on various sintering temperatures were examined. In addition, thermal shock test and corrosion test were accomplished. Based on these data the effects of each microfiller on the properties of LCC were established comparing to those of the commercial LCC with amorphous silica as a microfiller. The castables, containing reactive alumina, ZrO2 and "ALON" (5AlN.9Al2O3) as a first portion, exhibited considerably higher HMOR-values over 100$0^{\circ}C$, better creep behavior, and thermal shock resistance than those of castables with amorphous silica. The LCC with 5% Al2TiO5 showed no corrosion against molten aluminum.nst molten aluminum.
