The formation of a thicker hard alloyed layer have been investigated on the surface of aluminum cast alloy (AC2B) by PTA overlaying process with Cr, Cu and Ni motel powders under the condition of overlaying current 125-200A. overlaying speed 150 mm/min and different powder feeding rate 5-20 g/min. In addition the characteristics of hardening and wear resistance of alloyed layer here been examined in relation to the microstructure of alloyed layer. Main results obtained were summarized as follows: 1) There was an optimum overlaying condition to get a good alloyed layer with smooth surface. This good layer became easy to be formed as increasing overlaying current and decreasing powder feeding rate under a constant overlaying speed. 2) Cu powder was the most superior one in metal powders used due to a wide optimum overlaying condition range, uniform hardness distribution of Hv250-350, good oar resistance and freedom from cracking in alloyed layer with fine hyper-eutectic structure. 3) On the contrary, irregular hardness distribution was usually obtained in Cr ar Ni alloyed layers of which hardness was increased as Cr or Ni contents and reached to maximum hardness of about Hv400-850 at about 60wt%cr or 40wt%Ni in alloyed layer. 4) Cracking occurred in Cr or Ni alloyed layers with higher hardness than Hv250-300 at mere than 20-25wt% of Cr or Ni contents in alloyed layer. Porosity was observed in all alloyed layers but decreased by usage of spherical powder with smooth surface.

The influence of Cu and Ni on the ductile-brittle transition behavior of metastable austenitic Fe-18Cr-10Mn-N alloys with N contents below 0.5 wt.% was investigated in terms of austenite stability and microstructure. All the metastable austenitic Fe-18Cr-10Mn-N alloys exhibited a ductile-brittle transition behavior by unusual low-temperature brittle fracture, irrespective of Cu and/or Ni addition, and deformation-induced martensitic transformation occasionally occurred during Charpy impact testing at lower temperatures due to reduced austenite stability resulting from insufficient N content. The formation of deformation-induced martensite substantially increased the ductile-brittle transition temperature(DBTT) by deteriorating low-temperature toughness because the martensite was more brittle than the parent austenite phase beyond the energy absorbed during transformation, and its volume fraction was too small. On the other hand, the Cu addition to the metastable austenitic Fe-18Cr-10Mn-N alloy increased DBTT because the presence of ${\delta}$-ferrite had a negative effect on low-temperature toughness. However, the combined addition of Cu and Ni to the metastable austenitic Fe-18Cr-10Mn-N alloy decreased DBTT, compared to the sole addtion of Ni or Cu. This could be explained by the fact that the combined addition of Cu and Ni largely enhanced austenite stability, and suppressed the formation of deformation-induced martensite and ${\delta}$-ferrite in conjunction with the beneficial effect of Cu which may increase stacking fault energy, so that it allows cross-slip to occur and thus reduces the planarity of the deformation mechanism.

In this study, Cu-2.5at.%Ni-1at.%Si alloys were fabricated by horizontal continuous casting system to improve the electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of Cu-Ni-Si alloy. Withdrawing speed was changed with 50, 100, 150 and 200 mm/min for the optimum manufacturing condition. Microstructure was observed using OM, FE-SEM and TEM. Electrical conductivity was measured by 4-point probe method and mechanical properties were tested. A horizontal continuous cast thin slab had sound macro and micro structures with partly crystallized structures. Electrical resistivity decreased with increasing annealing temperature from 250 to $850^{\circ}C$, with increasing annealing temperature The maximum hardness and tensile strength were Hv 130, 610 MPa at $550^{\circ}C$, respectively. With changing withdrawing speed from 50 to 150 mm/min, hardness, tensile strength, yield strength and elongation were Hv 60-65, 210-230 MPa, 65-75 MPa and 40-50%, respectively.

Low carbon steels were oxidized isothermally at 1050 and $1180^{\circ}C$ for 4 hr in air in order to determine the effect of alloying elements Si, S, Cu, Sn, and Ni on oxidation. For oxidation resistance of low carbon steels, the beneficial elements were Si, Cu, and Ni, whereas the harmful elements were S and Sn. The most active alloying element, Si, was scattered inside the oxide scale, at the scale-alloy interface, and as an internal oxide precipitate. The relatively noble elements such as Cu and Ni tended to weakly segregate at the scale-alloy interface. Sulfur and Sn were weakly, uniformly distributed inside the oxide scale. Excessively thick, non-adherent scales containing interconnected pores formed at $1180^{\circ}C$.

The microstructure, adhesion strength and conductivity of electroplated Sn-Cu Films on Alloy42 lead Frame were measured for comparison. In the case of electroplated 90Sn10Cu, 99Sn1Cu, Cu$\sub$10/Sn$_3$Phase was formed and Ni$_3$Sn$_2$Phase was formed after 200$^{\circ}C$, 30min annealing. In the case of electroplated 99Sn1Cu, Cu$\sub$10/Sn, Ni$_3$Sn phases were formed and Ni$_3$Sn$_4$, Ni$_3$Sn$_4$phases were formed after 200$^{\circ}C$, 30min annealing. 90Sn10Cu film was measured better uniformity, adhesion strength and conductivity than 99Sn1Cu.

기계적 합금화법에 의한 비정질화 과정을 Ni-Ta계 및 Cu-Ta계에 대하여 조사하였다. Ni-Ta합금계는 혼합엔탈피가 음이나, Cu-Ta계는 혼합엔탈피가 양인 열역학적으로 대조적인 합금계이다. 볼밀 중 발생하는 원자구조 변화를 중성자회절법을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 두 합금게에 있어서 기계적 합금화에 의한 비정질상이 생성되었다. 비정질 Cu-Ta합금의 local원자구조를 혼합엔탈피가 크게 음인 Ni-Ta계의 결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과, 대조적 특성을 가진 두 합금계임에도 불구하고 원자크기가 작은 Ni 및 Cu가 bcc Ta의 결정격자 속으로 우선적으로 침입함으로써 비정질화가 진행됨을 알 수 있었다.

The suitability of twin roll strip casting for Ag-27.5%Cu-20.5%Zn-2.5%Mn-0.5%Ni brazing alloy (known as HS-49D) was examined in the present work and the mechanical properties and microstructure of the strip were also investigated. The effect of annealing heat treatment on the properties was also studied. The new manufacturing process has applications in the production of the brazing alloy. XRD and microstructural analyses of the Ag-27.5%Cu-20.5%Zn-2.5%Mn-0.5%Ni strip revealed a eutectic microstructure of an Ag-rich matrix (FCC) and a Cu-rich phase (FCC) regardless of heat treatment. The results of mechanical tests showed tensile strength of 434 MPa and 80% elongation for the twin roll casted strip. Tensile results showed decreasing strengths and increasing elongation with annealing heat treatment. Microstructural evolution and fractography were also investigated and related to the mechanical properties.

Separation/recovery of valuable metals such as nickel or tin from copper based alloys has recently attracted from the viewpoints of environmental protection and resource recycling. In this report, preliminary study on concentration and separation of nickel from copper based alloy dross using selective adsorption by chelate resin was performed. The chelate resin used in this study has absorbed copper ions more easily than nickel ions in the metal solution, which could allow the concentration/separation of the nickel from the copper base alloy solution. The final molar ratios of Ni and Cu ions in the two concentrated solutions were 70 and 99 % respectively after three-time flowing the solution through the chelate resin column.
