The hot corrosion behavior of plasma sprayed 4 mol% $Y_2O_3-ZrO_2$ (YSZ) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) with volcanic ash is investigated. Volcanic ash that deposited on the TBCs in gas-turbine engines can attack the surface of TBCs itself as a form of corrosive melt. YSZ coating specimens with a thickness of 430-440 ${\mu}m$ are prepared using a plasma spray method. These specimens are subjected to hot corrosion environment at $1200^{\circ}C$ with five different duration time, from 10 mins to 100 h in the presence of corrosive melt from volcanic ash. The microstructure, composition, and phase analysis are performed using Field emission scanning electron microscopy, including Energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. After the heat treatment, hematite ($Fe_2O_3-TiO_2$) and monoclinic YSZ phases are found in TBCs. Furthermore the interface area between the molten volcanic ash layers and YSZ coatings becomes porous with increases in the heat treatment time as the YSZ coatings dissolved into molten volcanic ash. The maximum thickness of this a porous reaction zone is 25 ${\mu}m$ after 100 h of heat treatment.

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.

Partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ) is an attractive material for thermal barrier coating. Zirconia exists in three crystallographic phases: cubic, tetragonal and monoclinic. Especially, the phase transformation of tetragonal phase to monoclinic phase accompanies significant volume expansion, so this transition generally results in cracking and contributes to the failure of the TBC system. Both the plasma sprayed ZrO$_2$-8Y$_2$O$_3$ (YSZ) coat and the ZrO$_2$,-25CeO$_2$,-2.5Y$_2$O$_3$ (CYSZ) coat are isothermally heat -treated at 130$0^{\circ}C$ and 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 100hr and cooled at different cooling rates. The monoclinic phase is not discovered in all the CYSZ annealed at 130$0^{\circ}C$ and 150$0^{\circ}C$. In the 150$0^{\circ}C$ heat-treated specimens, the YSZ contains some monoclinic phase while none exists in the 130$0^{\circ}C$ heat-treated YSZ coat. For the YSZ, the different phase transformation behaviors at the two temperatures are due to the stabilizer concentration of high temperature phases and grain growth. For the YSZ with 150$0^{\circ}C$-100hr annealing, the amount of monoclinic phase increased with the slower cooling rate. The extra oxygen vacancy, thermal stress, and c to t'phase transformation might suppress the t to m martensitic phase transformation.

For decades, carbon fiber has expanded their application fields from reinforced composites to energy storage and transfer technologies such as electrodes for super-capacitors and lithium ion batteries and gas diffusion layers for proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Especially in fuel cell, water repellency of gas diffusion layer has become very important property for preventing flooding which is induced by condensed water could damage the fuel cell performance. In this work, we fabricated superhydrophobic network of carbon fiber with high aspect ratio hair-like nanostructure by preferential oxygen plasma etching. Superhydrophobic carbon fiber surfaces were achieved by hydrophobic material coating with a siloxane-based hydrocarbon film, which increased the water contact angle from $147^{\circ}$ to $163^{\circ}$ and decreased the contact angle hysteresis from $71^{\circ}$ to below $5^{\circ}$, sufficient to cause droplet roll-off from the surface in millimeter scale water droplet deposition test. Also, we have explored that the condensation behavior (nucleation and growth) of water droplet on the superhydrophobic carbon fiber were significantly retarded due to the high-aspect-ratio nanostructures under super-saturated vapor conditions. It is implied that superhydrophobic carbon fiber can provide a passage for vapor or gas flow in wet environments such as a gas diffusion layer requiring the effective water removal in the operation of proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Moreover, such nanostructuring of carbon-based materials can be extended to carbon fiber, carbon black or carbon films for applications as a cathode in lithium batteries or carbon fiber composites.

Osseointegrated implants are used for the fixation of dental prosthesis with good long-term clinical results. In an attempt to improve the quantity and quality of the bone-implant interface, numerous implant modification have been used. Implants surface modifications have been used such as titanium-plasma sprayed, hydroxyapatite-coating, sandblasted, sandblasted and acid-etched, acid-etched. Rough surface implants have greater implant surface area and enhance the bone-implant interface and improve stabilization. The purpose of present study was to evaluate light microscopic and scanning microscopic examinations and removal torque value of newly developed calcium phosphate blast and acid-etched implant in the femur of rabbits. Titanium plasma sprayed(TPS) implant served as controls. After 12 weeks of healing of the femurs of 12 rabitts, the implant-containing segments of femur were removed on bloc and bone block including sections. Histologic examination and histomorphometric and removal torque values comparision were made for two implants. Obtained results are follows: 1. Newly developed calcium phosphate blasted and acid-etched implants were in close contact with bone under light microscopic examinations. 2. New implants showed mean bone-to implant contact 59.8%, whereas TPS implants showed mean bone-to implant contact 54.5% (statistically no difference p<0.05). 3. New implants showed mean bone density 56.7%, whereas TPS implants showed mean bone density 49.2% (statistically difference p<0.05). 4. New implants demonstrated mean removal torque values 40.5Ncm, whereas the mean removal torque values of TPS implants ranged 39.3Ncm. No statistical differences(p<0.05) were observed between two groups of implants nor was there any difference between the two implants at the clinical level.

The charging tendency of $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor surface was modified in order to improve discharging characteristic of green cell in an ac-plasma display panel (ac-PDP). The Zinc-silicate ($Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$) green-emitting phosphor was coated with magnesium oxide(MgO), which is viable to have positive charge on the surface. After fabricating the green cell with MgO-coated $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$, the electrical and optical properties in the cell were examined. It was found that the dynamic voltage margin could be increased while the address time was reduced. It may be ascribed to the change of charging tendency of $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor by MgO coating, which makes it possible to stable wall-charge accumulation. When $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor was coated with 1.3wt%-MgO, the address time was reduced 1.2 ${\mu}s$ and the address voltage lowered 25 V without any misfiring problem, compared to those of typical $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor layer. The luminescence intensity of green cell using MgO-coated phosphor layer was also improved by 10%.

For the production of functional $TiO_2$-biodegradable plastic (polybutylene succinate:PBS) composite material with photocayalytic activity, we attempted to prepare $TiO_2$ coatings on PBS substrate by HVOF and plasma spraying techniques under various conditions. The microstructures of coatings were characterized with SEM and XRD analysis, and the photocatalytic efficiency of coatings was evaluated by the photo degradation of gaseous acetaldehyde. The effects of primary particle size and spraying parameters on the formation behavior, photocatalytic performance of the coatings have been investigated. The results indicated that for both the HVOF sprayed $P_{200}$ and $P_{30}$ coatings, the high anatase ratio of 100% can be achieved regardless of fuel gas pressure. On the other hand, the HVOF sprayed $P_7$ coating exhibited a largely decreased anatase ratio (from 100% to 49.1%) with increasing the fuel gas pressure, which may be attributed to much higher susceptibility of heat for 7 nm agglomerated powder. HVOF sprayed $P_{200}$ and $P_{30}$ coatings show better performance as compared to that of plasma sprayed $P_{200}$ coatings owing to the higher anatase ratio. However, the HVOF sprayed $P_7$ coatings did not show the photocatalytic activity, which may result from the extremely small reaction surface area to the photocatalytic activity and low anatase ratio.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were coated with undoped zinc oxide (ZnO) or 5 wt% gallium-incorporated ZnO (GZO) using various deposition conditions. The CNTs were directly grown on conical-type tungsten substrates at $700^{\circ}C$ using inductively coupled plasma-chemical vapor deposition. The pulsed laser deposition technique was used to deposit the ZnO and GZO thin films with very low stress. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy were used to monitor the variations in the morphology and microstructure of CNTs prior to and after ZnO or GZO coating. The formation of ZnO and GZO films on CNTs was confirmed using energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. In comparison to the as-grown (uncoated) CNT emitter, the CNT emitter that was coated with a thin (10 nm) GZO film showed remarkably improved field emission characteristics, such as the emission current of $325\;{\mu}A$ at 1 kV and the threshold field of $1.96\;V/{\mu}m$ at $0.1\;{\mu}A$, and it also exhibited the highly stable operation of emission current up to 40 h.
