The purpose of this work is to coat ZrO$_{2}$ - 8Y$_{2}$O$_{3}$ ceramic on the Al cast alloy(AC-8A) by using the plasma spray method. Two types of coatings which were composed of two and three layer coating were examined. Each coating powder was analyzed for shape and size distribution and X-ray diffraction pattern. For the coated layers, microstructural analysis and performance estimation which was composed of static thermal test, thermal cyclic test and thermal shock test were conducted.

In the field of combined cycle power generation, thermal barrier coating(TBC) protects the super-heat-resistant alloy, which forms the core component of the gas turbine, from high temperature exposure. As the turbine inlet temperature(TIT) increases, TBC is more important and durability performance is also important when considering maintenance cost and safety. Therefore, studies have been made on the fabrication method of TBC and super-heat-resistant alloy in order to improve the performance of the TBC. In recent years, due to excellent properties such as high temperature creep resistance and high temperature strength, turbine blade material have been replaced by a single crystal superalloy, however there is a lack of research on TBC applied to single crystal superalloy. In this study, to understand the isothermal degradation performance of the TBC applied to the single crystal superalloy, isothermal exposure test was conducted at various temperature to derive the delamination life. The growth curve of thermally grown oxide(TGO) layer was predicted to evaluate the isothermal degradation performance. Also, microstructural analysis was performed by scanning electron microscope(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) to determine the effect of mixed oxide formation on the delamination life.

Energy efficiency solutions are being pursued as a sustainable approach to reducing energy consumption and related gas emissions across various sectors of the economy. Vacuum Insulation Panel (VIP) is an energy efficient advanced insulation system that facilitates slim but high-performance insulation, based on a porous core material evacuated and encapsulated in a barrier envelope. Although VIP has been applied in buildings for over a decade, it wasn't until recently that efforts have been initiated to propose and adopt a global standard on characterization and testing of VIP. One of the issues regarding VIP is its durability and aging due to pressure and moisture dependent increase of the initial low thermal conductivity with time; more so in building applications. In this paper, the aging of commercially available VIP was investigated experimentally; thermal conductivity was tested in accordance with ISO 8302 standard (guarded hot box method) and long-term durability was estimated based on a non-linear pressure-humidity dependent equation based on study of IEA/ECBCS Annex 39, with the aim of assessing durability of VIP for use in buildings. The center-of-panel thermal conductivity after 25 years based on initial 90% fractile with a confidence level of 90 % for the thermal conductivity (${\lambda}90/90$) ranged from 0.00726-0.00814 (W/m K) for silica core VIP. Significant differences between manufacturer-provided data and measurements of thermal conductivity and internal pressure were observed.

Pesticide protective clothing has not been frequently worn due to its lack of thermal comfort. It is important to develop fabrics which can allow the wearer to work in comfort. One of the possible way to achieve the goal is to produce fabrics with a water- and oil-repellent finish which would resist pesticide penetration but maintain some breathability. The purpose of this study were to evaluate the pesticide barrier properties of untreated and water- and oil-repellent finished nonwoven fabrics. Three types of nonwoven fabrics(Tyvek, Sontara and Kimlon) were used as test specimens. By pad-dry-cure method, each of the specimen was treated with fluorocarbon. The pesticide barrier properties (amount of pesticide penetration and residue) were measured by the gas chromatography. The performance properties of untreated and treated specimens were evaluated with respects to water pepellency(KS K 0590), oil repellency(AATCC 118), water resistance(KS K 0591, AATCC 42), water vapor transmission (KS A 1013) and air permeability(KS K 0570). The results of this study were as follows : 1) The untreated Sontara showed much more amount of pesticide penetration than untreated Tyvek and Kimlon, while the treated Sontara showed little amount of pesticide penetration. 2) After laundering, the amount of pesticide residue in the untreated and treated Sontara was less than that in Tyvek and in Kimlon. 3) Water- and oil-repellent finish improved water repellency, oil repellency, and water resistance of specimens. 4) The untreated Sontara and Kimlon showed higher water vapor transmission and air permeability than untreated Tyvek. Water vapor transmission and air permeability of treated specimen decreased compared to those of untreated.

Vacuum Insulation Panel (VIP) is an high energy efficient insulation system that facilitate slim but high insulation performance, based on based on a porous core material evacuated and encapsulated in a multi-barrier envelope. Although VIP has been on the market for decades now, it wasn't until recently that efforts have been initiated to propose a standard on aging testing. One of the issues regarding VIP is its durability and aging due to pressure and moisture dependent increase of the initial low thermal conductivity with time. It is hard to visually determine at an early stage. Recently, a method of analyzing the damage on the a material surface by applying image processing technology has been widely used. These techniques provide fast and accurate data with a non-destructive way. In this study, the surface VIP images were analyzed using the Harris corner detection algorithm. As a result, 171,333 corner points in the normal packaging were detected, whereas 32,895 of the defective packaging, which were less than the normal packaging. were detected. These results are considered to provide meaningful information for the determination of VIP condition.
