This study was conducted by L9 orthogonal array to obtain optimum spray parameters for This study was conducted by L9 orthogonal array to obtain optimum spray parameters for $Cr_3C_2 - 7wt%$(80wt%Ni-20wt%Cr) coating powder. The factors were hydrogen flow rate, oxygen flow rate, gun-to-work distance, powder feed rate. And evaluation methods for the coating were surface roughness, oxygen concentration, micro-hardness, pore size and distribution, low angle ($30^{\circ}$) erosion rate, and microstructure of coating. The optimum HVOF spray conditions were proved as follows : hydroen flow rate ; 681 SLPM, oxygen flow rate ; 215 SLPM $H^2/O^2 ratio= 3.16), gun-to-work distance ; 22cm, powder feed rate; 25g/min. The hardness (Hv300) was 1147 and the erosion rate ($30^{\circ}$degree) was $3.16\times10^{-4}$g/g. It is believed that the optimized spray conditions can be improved the wear-resistance and anti-erosion characteristics of the coating.

A scope of this study is to establish the optimum plasma spray conditions for fine ($5\mu\textrm{m}$) $Al_2O_3$ powder. However, the flowability of the $Al_2O_3$ powder is not so good because of irregular particle shape and fine particle size. Therefore, powder feeding system was modified by 1) change of powder feeding line material from polymer to copper 2) shorten the powder feeding tube length 3) heating the powder feeding system to $80^{\circ}C$4) vibrating the powder feeding line continuously, in order to feed the fine powder homogeneously. The homogeneous powder feeding conditions were obtained with the modified powder feeding system by controlling the powder carrier gas flow and the powder flow rate indicator. The best plasma spraying conditions for the fine $Al_2O_3$ powder were found out as 40kw gun power, 80 g/min. powder feed rate and 50 mm working distance after characterizing the microstructure, hardness and wear loss of the $Al_2O_3$ coating layer.

In the case of using high temperature by coating ceramic/metal, large stress was produced due to difference of thermal expansion coefficient between those. And then lead to delamination. In order to relaxation of the stress A1$_2$O$_3$/SS316 composite powders with $10wt.%Al_2O_3$ compositional gradient and $10wt.%Al_2O_3$ agglomerated powder were made by spray drying method. These powders were sintered to improve the strength and to be plasma sprayed in order to fabricate the FGC(functionally graded coating). The influence of gun power, working distance and Ar pressure on the microstructure of the coating layer was studied in order to optimize the plasma spray conditions. It was proven that the optimum conditions were 40kw gun power, 5cm working distance and $100ft^3/h$ Ar flow for both powders. FGC with 10 compositional steps was fabricated and the total thickness was 1.3mm. FGC was heat treated at $1100^{\circ}C$for 10hours to evaluate the heat resisting characteristics.

The 8 wt% yttria($Y_2O_3$) stabilized zirconia ($ZrO_2$), 8YSZ, a typical thermal barrier coating (TBC) for turbine systems, was fabricated under different starting powder conditions and coating parameters by atmospheric plasma spray (APS) coating process. Four different starting powders were prepared by conventional spray dry method with different additive and process parameter conditions. As a result, large- and small-size spherical-type particles and Donut-type particles were obtained. Dense structure of 8YSZ coating was produced when small size spherical-type or Donut-type particles were used. On the other hand, 8YSZ coating with a porous structure was formed from large-size spherical-type particles. Furthermore, a segmented coating structure with vertical cracks was observed after post heat treatment on the surface of dense structured coating by argon plasma flame at an appropriate gun distance and power condition.

Nozzle geometry influences gas dynamics making sprayed particle behavior one of the most important parameters in cold spray process. Gas flows at the entrance convergent section of the nozzle takes place at relatively high temperature and are subsonic. Thus, this region is a very suitable environment for heating spray particle. In this study, numerical simulation and experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of nozzle contour, entrance geometry of nozzle and powder injection position at nozzle on the cold spray process. The process changes were observed through numerical simulation studies and the results were used to find a correlation with coating properties.

Optimal conditions for HA plasma spray-coating on Ti6Al4V alloy were investigated in order to obtain enhanced bone-bonding ability with Ti6Al4V alloy. The properties of plasma spray coated film were analyzed by SEM, XRD, surface roughness measurement, and adhesion strength test because the film's transformed phase and crystallinity were known to be influential to bone-bonding ability withTi6Al4V alloy. The films were formed by a plasma spray coating technique with various combinations of plasma power, spray distance, and auxiliary He gas pressure. The film properties were analyzed in order to determine the optimal spray coating parameters with which we will able to achieve enhanced bone-bonding ability with Ti6Al4V alloy. The most influential coating parameter was found to be the plasma spray distance to the specimen from the spray gun nozzle. Additionally, it was observed that a relatively higher film crystallinity can be obtained with lower auxiliary gas pressure. Moderate adhesion strength can be achievable at minimal plasma power. That is, adhesion strength is minimally dependent on the plasma power. The combination of shorter spray distance, lower auxiliary gas pressure, and moderate spray power can be recommended as the optimal spray conditions. In this study, optimal plasma spray coated films were formed with spray distance of 70 mm, plasma current of 800 A, and auxiliary gas pressure of 60 psi.

The possibility of chemical precipitation for recycled ammonium paratungstate (APT) was studied. WO₃ particles were synthesized by chemical precipitation method using a 1:2 weight ratio of APT:DI-water. At the 500℃ sintering temperature, the X-ray diffraction results showed that APT completely decomposed to WO₃. For the granulated powder WC-Co, vacuum heat treatment at proper temperatures increases tap density and flow-ability. Hardness of the WC-Co thermal spray coating layer was measured in the range HV 831~1266. Spray conditions for the best characteristic values were an oxygen flow rate=1500 scfh, a fuel flow rate = 5.25gph and a gun distance = 320mm.

본 연구에서는 손상된 알루미늄 금형의 복원을 위해 고온플라즈마 용사법을 이용하여 금형의 표면에 $Al/Al_2O_3$ 혼합분말을 용사한 후 코팅층과 모재의 증착강도에 대한 평가를 수행하였다. 증착강도의 평가는 분사노즐의 이동속도, 순수한 알루미늄 bond coat 층의 유무에 따라 평가되었으며, bond coat 층을 생성시키지 않았을 때, 코팅층의 두께는 열팽창에 의한 잔류인장응력의 감소를 위해 두껍지 않아야 하지만 일정두께 이상이 되어야 최대의 증착강도를 얻을 수 있음이 나타났다. 또한 순수한 알루미늄 bond coat 층은 내부 결함이 없는 응고된 금속이기 때문에 두께에 따른 증착강도의 영향을 그대로 받아 두께가 두꺼울수록 bond coat 층을 생성시키지 않은 시험편보다 증착강도가 매우 낮게 측정되었다. 반면, 가장 얇게 bond coating 된 시험편 Bc3(3회의 bond coating층과 분사건의 이동속도가 20 cm/sec인 시험편) 는 bond coating을 하지 않은 시험편 중 가장 높은 증착강도를 가지는 시험편 Wbc20(bond coating층이 없고 분사건의 이동속도가 20 cm/sec인 시험편)보다 약 2배 이상증착강도가 향상되었다. 따라서 금형의 복원시에 중간층의 형성이 반드시 필요하며, 이는 코팅층의 잔류 인장응력을 보완시키며 고인성의 순수한 알루미늄과 같은 코팅층과 유사한 층을 코팅하는 것이 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

본 연구는 포름알데히드와 같은 유해화학물질을 저감하고, 인체에 무해한 친환경 건축마감재를 개발하기 위하여 대나무숯분말, 편백추출수 및 바인더를 원료로 이용하여 실내 건축마감재용 액상코팅제를 제조하였다. 편백추출수의 함유량에 따른 액상코팅제의 유해화학물질에 대한 탈취율, 원적외선방사율, 음이온방출량, 항균성 및 실제 소요량을 조사하였다. 액상코팅제의 포름알데히드 탈취율은 60.0~98.6%, 암모니아 탈취율은 76.7~86.2%였다. 편백추출수의 혼합량이 증가함에 따라 탈취율도 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 액상코팅제의 원적외선방사율은 91.7%, 음이온 방출량은 77개/cc 였으며, 세균감소율은 99.4%로 항균력이 우수하였으나, 편백추출수의 혼합량 증가에 따른 이들 값에는 차이가 인정되지 않았다. 액상코팅제의 소요량은 스프레이건을 사용할 경우 $0.66kg/m^2$, 붓칠의 경우 $0.94kg/m^2$로 스프레이건을 이용할 경우가 더 효율적이었다.
