MCrAlY overaly coatings are used as oxidation barrier coatings to prevent degradation of the underlying substrate in high temperature and oxidizing environment of the hot section of gas turbines. Therefore, oxidation resistance in high temperature is important property of MCrAlY coatings. Also, coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) of MCrAlY have middle value of that of Ni-based superalloys and oxides, which have the effect of preventing the delamination of the surface oxides. Cyclic oxidation test is one of the most useful methods for evaluating the high temperature durability of coatings used in gas turbines. In this study, NiCoCrAlY overlay coatings were formed on Inconel 792(IN 792) substrates by vacuum plasma spraying process. Vacuum plasma sprayed NiCoCrAlY coatings and IN 792 susbstrates were exposed to 1000℃ one-hour cyclic oxidation environment. NiCoCrAlY coatings showed lower weight gain in short-term oxidation. In long-term oxidation, IN 792 substrates showed higher weight loss due to delamination of surface oxide but NiCoCrAlY coatings showed lower weight loss. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed α-Al2O3 and NiCr₂O₄ was formed during the cyclic oxidation test. Through cross-section observation using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron back scatter diffraction (EBSD) analysis, thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer composed of α-Al₂O₃ and NiCr₂O₄ was formed and the thickness of TGO increased during 1000℃ cyclic oxidation test. β phase in upper side of NiCoCrAlY coating was depleted due to oxidation of Al and outer beta depletion zone thickness also increased as the cyclic oxidation time increased.

The oxide scales formed on Ni-18W(at.%) coating that was electrodeposited on steel were investigated using XRD, SEM and TEM. The oxide scales consisted mainly of an outer NiO layer, and an inner thick ($NiWO_4$+NiO) mixed layer. The unoxidized coating below the oxide scale was rich in Ni and depleted in W, owing to the consumption of Wand the resultant Ni enrichment. The oxidation resistance of Ni-18W coating was poorer than that of the TiN coating, due to the formation of nonprotective NiWO$_4$. During oxidation, Ni and the substrate element of Fe diffused outward, while oxygen inward, according to the concentration gradients.

실시간 x-선 산란기법을 이용해 p형 질화물 위에 성장된 $Ni(400\;\AA)/Au(400\;\AA)$ 박막의 공기 중에서 산화과정 동안 일러나는 구조적인 변화를 조사하였다. 350 "C의 열처리 온도에서 산화과정 동안 니켈과 금 박막들이 서로 섞인다는 것을 확인하였고 금의 회절 프로파일의 우측 부근에서 니켈의 양이 서로 다른 금 고용체의 새로운 상이 형성되는 것을 발견하였다. 또한, 이런 금 고용체에 포함된 니켈 원자는 산화가 더욱 진행함으로써 바깥쪽으로 확산하여 산소와 결합하여 NiO의 새로운 상이 형성되는 것을 알 수 있었다. $650^{\circ}C$의 열처리 온도에서는 완전히 산화가 일어났음에도 불구하고 금(111) 벌크 회절 프로파일에 소량의 니켈 원자가 포함되어 있음을 확인하였다.

Recently, NiO films have been studied as a buffer layer to fabricate the superconductor with preferred orientation and as a diffusion barrier to prevent the reaction between superconductor and textured nickel substrate . We fabricated NiO films on textured Ni substrate by thermal oxidation with various variables of temperature, oxidation time, atmosphere, and cooling rate. We investigated the alignment of NiO films by XRD and pole figure and the microstructures by SEM. (200) <001> alignment of NiO film was observed at the oxidation condition of $1200^{\circ}C$ far 10min and slow cooling in O2 atmosphere. During the process in Ar atmosphere, we could also observe the thermal faceting which affects the alignment of NiO alms on Ni substrate.

수소를 연료로 하여 HVOF 용사된 크롬카바이드 용사층의 산화거동을 이해하기 위해 용사분말의 제조방법이 서로 다른 두 종류의 용사용 분말을 ($\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$-20wt%NiCr로 구성된 크래드 분말과 $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$-7wt%NiCr로 구성된 혼합분말)이용하여 F/O비를 3.2, 3.0, 2.8 로 변화시켜 용사한 후, $1000^{\circ}C$ 까지 등온 산화실험 후, 산화특성을 고찰하여 크롬카바이드 용사층의 F/O비에 의존하는 산화거동을 비교 검토하였다. 그 결과 NiCr이 20wt% 크래드된 분말로 용사된 용사층과 NiCr이 7wt% 혼합된 분말로 용사된 용사층은 전혀 다른 산화거동을 보였다. 혼합분말의 경우에 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 50시간 등온산화실험 후, F/O=3.2의 조건인 경우에는 산화물이 표면 요철을 따라 비교적 균일하게 성장한 반면 F/O=3.0과 F/O=2.8의 경우에는 용사층 표면이 다공성의 산화물이 형성되었으며, 또한 Ni, Cr으로 이루어진 복합산화물인 oxide cluster로 성장하였다. 반면에 크래드 분말로 용사된 용사층의표면 산화물 층은 다공성을 변화되지 않았다. 이러한 용사분말의 제조방법에 따라 산화거동이 차이를 보이는 것은 용사 중에 발생하는 카바이드분해와 밀접한 관계가 있는 것으로 생각되며 또한 일반적으로 알려진 크롬카바이드 소결체 보다 산화율이 높았다. 이러한 결과로 볼 때, 환원성의 수소의 양에 따른 용사층의산화거동에 대해서도 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

For the plasma sprayed as well as the EB-PVD thermal barrier coatings, the fracture paths within the oxidation products developed at the interface between the partially stabilized zirconia ceramic coating and NiCoCrAlY bond coat during cyclic thermal oxidation has been investigated. It was observed that the fracture in the oxidation products primarily took place within the oxide such as $Ni_{1-x}Co_3(Al_,Cr)_2O_4$ or at the interface between the oxide and $Al_2O_3$. It was found that Al2O3 developed first, followed by the Ni/Co/Cr rich oxides such as ,,$Ni_{1-x}Co_x(Al_,Cr)_2O_4$ $Cr_2O_3$and NiO at the interface between the ceramic coating and the bond coat in a cyclic high temperature environment. It was therfore concluded that the formation of the oxide containing Ni, Cr and Co was a life-limiting event for thermal barrier coatings during cyclic thermal oxidation.

Electrochemical oxidation of ethanol at nickel electrodes has been studied in 1 M KOH solution containing 0.20M ethanol using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Equivalent circuits have been worked out by simulating the impedance data, and the results were used to model the oxidation of ethanol as well as the passivation of the electrode. The maximum rate of oxidation of $Ni(OH)_2$ to NiOOH was observed at about 0.37V vs. Ag/AgCl reference electrode, while the maximum rate of ethanol oxidation at the Ni electrode was observed at about 0.42V, The charge-transfer resistance for oxidation of the electrode itself became smaller in the presence of ethanol than in its absence. These results suggest that the $\beta-Ni(OH)_2/\beta-NiOOH$ redox couple is acting as an effective electron transfer mediator far ethanol oxidation. The kinetic parameters also were obtained by the experimental and simulated results.

1 kV high-voltage GaN Schottky diode is realized using GaN-on-Si template by oxidizing Ni-Schottky contact. The Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) analysis revealed the formation of $NiO_x$ at the top of Schottky contact. The Schottky contact was changed to from Ni/Au to Ni/Ni-Au alloy/Au/$NiO_x$ by oxidation. Ni diffusion into AlGaN improves the Schottky interface and the trap-assisted tunneling current. In addition, the reverse leakage current and the isolation-leakage current are efficiently suppressed by oxidation. The isolation-leakage current was reduced about 3 orders of magnitudes. The reverse leakage current was also decreased from 2.44 A/$cm^2$ to 8.90 mA/$cm^2$ under -100 V-biased condition. The formed group-III oxides ($AlO_x$ and $GaO_x$) during the oxidation is thought to suppress the surface leakage current by passivating surface dangling bonds, N-vacancies and process damages.

The addition of Ni leads to the formation of protective rust layer on steel and subsequently high corrosion resistance of steel in $Cl^-$-containing environment. $\alpha$-FeOOH, $\beta$-FeOOH, $\gamma$-FeOOH and $Fe_3O_4$ are formed mainly on steels exposed to $Cl^-$-containing environment. As the first work of this kind, this study reports the influence of Ni on the oxidation behavior of $Ni_xFe_{1-x}(OH)_2$ in $Cl^-$-containing solution at two different pH regions(condition I under which the solution pH is allowed to decrease and condition I under which solution pH is maintained at 8) where $\gamma$-FeOOH and $Fe_3O_4$ are predominantly formed, respectively, upon oxidation of $Fe(OH)_2$, In the presence of Ni(II) in the starting solution, the formation of $\beta$-FeOOH was facilitated and the formation of $\gamma$-FeOOH was suppressed with increasing Ni(II) content and with increasing oxidation rate of Fe(II). Ni(II) was found to have $Fe_3O_4$-suppressing effect under condition II.

We prepared Ni and Pd-modified $TiO_2@SiO_2$ core-shell nanostructures and then analyzed them by scanning electron microscopy, optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction crystallography, FT-IR and UV-Visible absorption spectroscopy. In addition, their CO oxidation performance was tested by temperature-programmed mass spectrometry. The CO oxidation activity showed an order of Ni-$TiO_2@SiO_2$ ($900^{\circ}C$) < Ni-$TiO_2@SiO_2$ ($90^{\circ}C$) < Ni-$TiO_2@SiO_2$ ($450^{\circ}C$) in the first CO oxidation run, and greatly improved activity in the same order in the second run. The $T_{10%}$ (the temperature at 10% CO conversion) corresponds to the CO oxidation rate of $2.8{\times}10^{-5}$ molCO $g{_{cat}}^{-1}s^{-1}$. For Ni-$TiO_2@SiO_2$ ($450^{\circ}C$), the $T_{10%}$ was observed at $365^{\circ}C$ in the first run and at $335^{\circ}C$ in the second run. For the Pd-$TiO_2@SiO_2$ ($450^{\circ}C$), the $T_{10%}$ was observed at a much lower temperature of $263^{\circ}C$ in the first CO oxidation run, and at $247^{\circ}C$ in the second run. The CO oxidation activities of transition metal modified $TiO_2@SiO_2$ core-shell nanostructures presented herein provide new insights that will be useful in developing catalysts for various environments.
