기판에 증착된 금속의 중요변수중 하나인 밀착성은 여러 가지 방법에 의해 연구되고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 PVD법에 의해 제작된 Zn-Mg박막의 밀착성을 스크래치 테스법에 의해 그 특성을 살펴 보았다. 즉, Mg함량의 증가에 따라 모재 표면의 결정립 미립화에 의해 증착금속의 박리폭이 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이와 같은 이유는 Mg의 함량이 증가할수록 미립화된 Zn-Mg박막의 결정입내를 둘러싸는 입계의 상대적 면적이 증가하여 활성적으로 작용하게 되고, 활성적인 입계는 모재와 박막사이에 결합력을 강화시키는 역할을 하기 때문이다. 이것은 표면에너지가 높은 (002)이 많이 배향된 증착금속 일수록 모재와 박막의 밀착성을 향상시키는 것처럼 상대적 입계면적이 증가되고, 활성화된 입계의 영향은 밀착성을 향상시키는 요인으로 작용하는 것으로 사료된다.

Aluminium-silicon based casting alloys have received an attention for high electrical and thermal conductivity applications, however relatively low conductivity of Al-Si alloys often limits the application. Efforts have been made to develop new high conductivity aluminium casting alloys containing no or less silicon. In this study Al-Zn-Fe based alloys were selected as the new alloys, and the effect of Mg additions on their properties and casting characteristics were investigated. As the magnesium content was increased, the tensile strength of Al-2Zn-0.2Fe based alloy was remarkably increased, while the electrical conductivity was deteriorated. It was observed that the fluidity of the alloys was generally inversely proportional to the Mg content but the hot cracking resistance was rather proportional to it. Cooling curve analyses were carried out to measure the actual solidification range and dendrite coherency temperature.

Fundmental fatigue crack propagation tests with C-T type specimens were conducted at various load ratios (R) such as 0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 in T6 and Thermomechanically treated (TMT) conditions of 7039 Al alloy. Better mechanical properties from monotonic test as well as fatigue crack propagation were obtained by TMT process owing to uniform distribution of fine microstructures and non-existence of precipitation free zone (PFZ). Through the measurement of Kop and ${\Delta}K$ at various R the concept of effective stress intensity factor range ratio, U was reviewed to asses the load ratio effect on fatigue crack propagation. A relationship between U and variables such as ${\Delta}K$ and R was obtained empirically. This may enable us to predict ${\Delta}K_{eff}$ that is of critical importance for prediction of fatigue crack propagation rate.

For the purpose of applying a hot-dip Zn-6mass%Al-3mass%Mg alloy coated steel sheet (ZAM) to automotive body materials, a laboratory study of the general properties required for inner and outer panels of automotive bodies was performed. Even with only light coating weight, ZAM showed an excellent corrosion resistance in terms of both cosmetic and perforation corrosion compared to the currently used materials for automotive bodies, GI70 and GA45. In our study, it was confirmed that ZAM exhibits as good as or better properties than GI70 in terms of spot weldability and press formability. Furthermore, since the same corrosion resistance can be achieved with less coating weight by applying ZAM, laser weldability is better than GI and GA.

AA7010 is an Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy containing Zr, developed as an alternate to traditional AA7075 alloy owing to their high strength combined with better fracture toughness. It is necessary to improve the corrosion resistance and surface properties of the alloy by incorporating plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method. AA7010-T7452 aluminum alloy has been processed through the forging route with multi-stage working operations, and was coated with $10{\mu}m$ thick $Al_2O_3$ ceramic aluminina coating using the plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method. The corrosion, stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and nano-mechanical behaviours were examined by means of potentiodynamic polarization, slow strain rate test (SSRT) and nano-indentation tests. The results indicated that the additional thermomechanical treatment during the forging process caused a fully recrystallized microstructure, which lead to the poor environmental cracking resistance of the alloy in 3.5% NaCl solution, despite the overaging treatment. Although the fabricated PEO coating improved general corrosion resistance, the brittle nature of the coating did not provide any improvement in SCC resistance of the alloy. However, the hardness and elastic modulus of the coating were significantly higher than the base alloy.

The MA8 alloy (formula Mg-Mn-Се) has been shown to have greater corrosion stability than the VMD10 magnesium alloy (formula Mg-Zn-Zr-Y) in chloride-containing solutions by Scanning Vibrating Electrode Technique (SVET) and by optical microscopy, gravimetry, and volumetry. It has been established that the crucial factor for the corrosion activity of these samples is the occurrence of microgalvanic coupling at the sample surface. The peculiarities of the kinetics and mechanism of the corrosion in the local heterogeneous regions of the magnesium alloy surface were investigated by localized electrochemical techniques. The stages of the corrosion process in artificial defects in the coating obtained by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) at the surface of the MA8 magnesium alloy were also studied. The analysis of the experimental data enabled us to determine that the corrosion process in the defect zone develops predominantly at the magnesium/coating interface. Based on the measurements of the corrosion rate of the samples with PEO and composite polymer-containing coatings, the best anticorrosion properties were displayed by the composite polymer-containing coatings.

차체의 산화를 방지하기 위하여 희생적 양극을 사용한 산화방지 장치를 개발하였다. 희생적 양극은 철보다 산화 전위가 높은 Mg, Al, Zn으로 만들어 졌고 이것은 차체의 철이나 철합금보다 먼저 산화되어 차체의 부식을 방지한다. 차체 산화방지 장치를 제작하여 철시편을 염산, 질산 및 황산에 대한 방식효과를 시간에 따라 측정하였고 SEM과 XPS를 이용하여 철시편 표면의 방식효과를 분석하였다. 철시편을 산화 방지 장치에 연결하면 산화되어 산성용액 속으로 녹아 들어가는 철의 양이 현저하게 감소하고 철시편 표면의 산화가 방지되며 산화된 철은 $Fe_2O_3$의 산화형태를 가짐을 확인하였다. 따라서 차체 산화방지를 차체에 직접 부착한다면 차체의 부식 및 산화를 효과적으로 방지할 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, microstructural changes due to extrusion, rolling and heat treatment were studied to fabricate Al-4.0wt%Zn-1.5wt%Mg-0.9wt%Cu alloys with homogeneous microstructure suitable for metal cases of smart phones and electronic products fabricated through plastic working. After extrusion microstructure and texture were developed very differently on the surface and inside. Inside, coarse grains were formed and a strong Cube component orientation was developed. On the surface, a weak texture was developed with small grains. After 72% cold rolling the intensity of the Cube component orientation was lower, and uniform texture was developed in all the layers and the R-value was uniformly predicted. After recrystallization, the grain size difference between at the surface and the inside is smaller, when 72% rolling was performed, indicating that a uniform structure is formed. Texture develops almost randomly after recrystallization and exhibits uniform R-values at all layers.

The microstructural changes of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy containing Sc during hot extrusion and post heat treatment is investigated. Two kinds of Al-Sc alloys with different alloying elements (B1, B2) are hot extruded to make I-shape bars at 380$^{\circ}C$, then the bars are solution treated at 480$^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs followed by artificial aging at 120$^{\circ}C$ for 24hrs. The interior microstructure of as extruded bar consists of elongated grains, however, fine equiaxed grains are mainly observed around surface. The microstructural gradient suggests that different restoration process can proceed during the hot extrusion. For B1 and B2, different grain growth behaviors are found around the surface during the post heat treatment. Rapid grain growth behavior around the surface is discussed related with the crystallographic orientation of the grain.
