The aim of this study is to investigate the durability of fly ash based geopolymer mortar with and without protective coatings in aggressive chemical environments. The source materials for geopolymer are Fly ash and Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS) and they are considered in the combination of 80% & 20% respectively. Two Molarities of NaOH solution were considered such as 8M and 10M. The ratio of binder to sand and Sodium silicate to Sodium hydroxide solution (Na₂SiO₃/NaOH) are taken as 1:2 and 2 respectively. The alkaline liquid to binder ratio is 0.4. Compressive strength tests were conducted at various ages of the mortar specimens. In order to evaluate the performance of coatings on geopolymer mortar under aggressive chemical environment, the mortar specimens were coated with two different types of coatings such as epoxy and Acrylic. They were then subjected to different chemical environments by immersing them in 10% standard solutions of each ammonium nitrate, sodium chloride and sulphuric acid. Drop in compressive strength as a result of chemical exposure was considered as a measure of chemical attack and the drop in compressive strength was measured after 30 and 60 days of chemical exposure. The compressive strength results following chemical exposure indicated that the specimens containing the acrylic coating proved to be more resistant to chemical attacks. The control specimen without coating showed a much greater degree of deterioration. Therefore, the application of acrylic coating was invariably much more effective in improving the compressive strength as well as the resistance of mortar against chemical attacks. The results also indicated that among all the aggressive attacks, the sulphate environment has the most adverse effect in terms of lowering the strength.

본 연구에서는 상온경화형 silica-based 코팅제의 제조 및 해양구조물에 적용하여 가혹한 해양환경에서 방식 및 방오 성능 발현을 위한 실용화 개발 연구를 수행하였다. 구조상 외부에 노출된 부분이 많은 해양(플랜트) 구조물은 강한 자외선, 극심한 온도차, 염수에 의한 부식 등 가혹한 해양환경에 고립되어 운용된다. 이러한 환경 하에서는 쉽게 열화 되고 파도 등 물리적 자극에도 쉽게 침식되는 유기계 페인트들은 그 역할을 제대로 할 수 없다. 해양구조물에 치밀한 세라믹 코팅을 형성시킬 경우 녹이 발생하지 않고 경도가 높아 시설물을 해수환경 하에서도 치밀하게 보호할 수 있다. 세라믹 코팅제의 경우 그 기능의 장점들로 인해 해양 구조물에서 그 용도와 적용범위는 크게 증진될 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 colloidal silica를 기반으로 실란계 커플링제, 경화제 및 세라믹 충진제로 구성된 silica-based 코팅제 조성개발과 해수중 방식 및 방오용 보호코팅제로의 응용에 대해 연구하였다.

In PECVD(Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition) process, titanium nitride is thin and its adhesion is poor for the protective coatings. Therefore it has been studied that intermediate layer forms between substrate and TiN thin film. Using R.F. plasma nitriding, nitride layer was first formed, then TiN thin film coated by PECVD. The chemical composition of the coatings has been characterized using AES, EDS and their crystallographic structure by means of XRD. Mechanical properties such as microhardness and film adhesion have also been determined by vickers hardness test, scratch test and indentation test. As a result, there was no difference in chemical composition and structure between the TiN deposition only and the composite of TiN deposition on nitrided steel. It was found that nitrided substrate increased the hardness of TiN coatings and was beneficial in preventing the plastic deformation in the substrate. Therefore the effective load bearing capacity of the TiN coatings on nitrided steel was increased and their adhesion was improved as well. According to the results of this study, the processes that lead to the formation of composite layers characterized by good working properties, i.e., high microhardness, adhesion and resistance to deformation.

Current coating practice requires the thickness of anti-corrosion organic coatings to be over $250{\mu}m$ for immersion parts of ships and offshore structures and the corrosion resistance of these coatings has been evaluated by destructive and qualitative analysis. Recently, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy(EIS) method has been employed, as an alternative, to evaluate corrosion resistance of organic coatings. This method is characterized as being nondestructive, reproducible, and quantitative in evaluating aging of organic coatings. In this study, EIS method was adopted to quantitatively and effectively select the coating systems having optimized protective performance. Evaluations of several epoxy and epoxy/polyurethane coating systems typically used for ships and offshore structures were carried out in wet($50^{\circ}C$, $90^{\circ}C$) and dry(room temp.) environments to accelerate the degradation of the organic coatings. These results were compared with the conventional scribed(scratched) test results. The plausible prediction model for determining the remaining life-time of coating systems was also proposed based on variations of impedance data, FT-IR and $T_g$ measurements results.

Solvent free high solid coatings are increasingly used as they posses number of advantages such as, lower cost per unit film thickness, better performance and eco-friendliness. In the present study polymeric film-forming materials such as aniline-novolac (ANS), cresol-novolac (CNS) and acrylic copolymer blended cresol-novolac (ACNS) coating materials have been prepared. The corrosion resistance properties of the prepared high solid coating materials have been evaluated through potential-time, potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance studies (EIS). Among the three coating systems, cresol-novolac polymer coated substrates offer better corrosion resistance property and the order of the performance was found as CNS > ACNS > ANS. We can recommend these systems for use in automobile applications.

The corrosion protection behavior of AZ31 magnesium alloy (Mg alloy) with cathodic electrophoretic coating (E-coating) pretreated by cerium-based conversion coatings at various pH was investigated in this study. Cerium-based conversion coatings (CeCCs) were deposited on AZ31 Mg alloy by immersion treatment in the nitrate-based cerium salt solution. The morphology and composition of the CeCCs were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The corrosion properties of the AZ31 Mg alloy pretreated with cerium coating and subsequently E-coated were studied during salt-spray testing. The surface morphologies of the E-coated Mg alloy were examined in detail after different testing times using digital photography. It was found that the protective properties of the E-coating on AZ31 Mg alloy generated are heavily dependent upon the CeCC factors such as treatment time, coating thickness and pH of the solution.

Protective coatings at nuclear power plants should be designed to withstand exposure to ambient conditions during normal operation or design-basis accidents. However, there was a change in the perception of the protective coating to the revision of the Regulatory Guidelines by the NRC in July 2000. In other words, maintenance guidelines have been strengthened in order to minimize the clogging of the cooling water system due to the substances in the containment building. Therefore, KHNP, the contractor and operator of the nuclear power plant, plans to develop the coating system for nuclear power plants in accordance with the regulation, and plans to develop its own coating expert.

치유 물질인 아마인유에 형광 물질을 소량 혼합한 혼합물을 코어 성분으로 하여 마이크로캡슐을 제조하였다. 이 마이크로캡슐을 코팅재 조성물에 균일하게 분산시켜 모르타르 표면에 도포함으로써 지기치유 보호코팅재를 제작하였다. 이 코팅재에 약 $100{\mu}m$ 폭의 스크래치 또는 균열 손상을 발생시킨 후 자외선을 조사하면서 관찰한 결과, 캡슐 함량이 증가할수록 형광 발광의 범위가 증가하였고, 20wt% 이상의 캡슐을 함유한 코팅재에서는 손상 부위가 치유물질로 거의 채워진 모습을 나타내었다. 물흡수도 시험 결과 20wt% 이상의 캡슐을 함유한 코팅재는 약 85%의 치유효율을 보였다. 손상 부위에서 나타나는 형광은 3m의 거리에서도 용이하게 식별되었다. 본 연구결과는 콘크리트 보호를 위한 마이크로캡슐형 자기치유 코팅재의 치유기능을 육안으로 용이하게 확인하는데 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.
