The wear of the third track power collector is one of the essential check factors for safe train operation. Rapid wear of the current collector accelerates the line of the catenary. In addition, the arc generated when the catenary line is turned off causes a malfunction in the minute portion of the catenary line, thereby shortening the life of the catenary line. In this paper, to analyze the mechanical wear of the current collector during driving according to the environmental factor of the Maglev(magnetic levitation train), it was divided into dry season and wet season. the wear of metallized collector, copper alloy collector and carbon collector were measured and compared with each other. The wear rate was measured according to the position of the wire, the position of the power collector and the position per hour. Microscopic photographs of the cross section and surface of the power collector were measured. The electrical currents of the metallized collector, copper alloy collector and carbon collector were measured.

Cu/C films were prepared at room temperature under $Cu(hfac)_2-Ar-H_2$ atmosphere in order to obtain metallized polymer by using ECR-MOCVD(Electron Cyclotron Resonance Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) coupled with a DC bias system. The room temperature MOCVD on polymer substrate could be possible by collaboration of ECR and a DC bias. Structural analysis of the films by ECR was found that fine copper grains embedded in an amorphous polymer matrix with indistinctive interfacial layer. The increase in $H_2$ contents brought on copper-rich film formation with low electric resistance. On the other hand carbon-rich films with low sheet electric resistance were prepared in argon atmosphere. The electric sheet resistance of Cu/C films with good interfacial property were controlled at $10^8$~$10^0$ Ohm/sq. ranges by the $H_2$/Ar mole ratio and the shielding effectiveness of the film showed maximum up to 45dB in the our experimental range.
