The effects of composition, structure design, and coating thickness of thermal barrier coating (TBC) on thermal barrier performance were investigated by measuring the temperature differences of TBC samples. TBCs with the thin and thick top coats were used for these studies, including TBCs with rare-earth (Gd, Yb, and La) compositions. The thermal barrier performance was enhanced with increasing the thickness of top coat even for thin TBCs, indicating that the thermal barrier performance was commensurate to the thickness of top coat. On the other hand, the bi-layered TBC, which was prepared with Yb-Gd-YSZ feedstock powder, with the buffer layer of high purity 8YSZ showed a better thermal barrier performance than that of regular purity 8YSZ. The interfaces in the bi-layered TBCs had a decisive effect on the thermal barrier performance, showing the performance enhanced with increasing numbers of interfaces. However, a new structural design and an additional process should be considered to reduce stress concentrations and to ensure interface stability, respectively, for improving thermal durability in the multi-layered TBCs.

Modern industry has a wide variety of application areas such as ocean industry, construction and automobile industry. With the current circumstances, the need for anti-corrosion technology that can be used on materials to withstand in harsh environments, is increasing. In this study, we have sought to develop a metal coating technology with zinc and aluminum powders as a potential anti-corrosion material. To make a coating on metal products, a thermal diffusion coating method was used under the conditions of $350^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. Optical microscope, Field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM&EDX) and X-ray diffraction analysis were used to analyze a coating layer. As a result, we have confirmed that the generated amount of rust on metal parts coated with thermal diffusion coating method decreased dramatically compared with non-coated metal parts. Furthermore, the anti-corrosion performance was evaluated according to the different ratio of zinc and aluminum. Finally, we confirmed the possibility of application and commercialization of our coating technique on metal parts used in harsh industrial based on the results of these performance.

해양환경 하에서 강재에 대한 방식 목적으로 Al-3%Mg 용사선재를 이용하여 아크 용사코팅을 실시하였다. 그리고 Al-3%Mg 용사코팅 층의 내식성을 개선하기 위하여 유/무기 복합 세라믹 후처리를 실시하였다. 후처리 적용에 따른 용사코팅 층의 다양한 전기화학적 실험 결과, 양극분극과 음극분극 실험 시 모든 전위구간에서 후처리 적용 시 전류밀도가 작게 나타나 내식성 개선이 확인되었다. 그리고 후처리된 용사코팅 층의 표면에서 관찰된 마이크로 크랙의 영향으로 자연전위 계측 시 심한 전위변동이 나타났으며, 양극분극 실험 시에는 후처리 층의 탈리손상이 용이하게 발생하였다. 그럼에도 불구하고 타펠분석을 기반으로 외부 환경차단 효과를 나타내는 코팅 효율이 92.11%로 산출되어 Al-3%Mg 용사코팅 층의 내식성이 향상되었다.

Thermal spray technology has been used in many industrial application. Especially, thermal spray coating have been employed with the purposes of achieving better resistances in abrasion, heat and corrosion. In the previous studies on the thermal spray coating, thermal spray characteristics from the perspective of combustion engineering have not been investigated sufficiently, while the material characteristics of the coated substrates have been investigated widely. In this study, the effect of spray particles on the flame behavior was experimentally investigated. The amount of the injected particles was measured using the light scattering method and the temperature of the particles was estimated using a two-color method. Various flame-spray interactions were observed and it was found that the high temperature zone near the flame is elongated by particles density. Based on these results, the applicability of the light scattering method and the two-color method was discussed.

A theoretical method was developed to analyze the effect of low-$\varepsilon$ coatings which have influence on thermal performance of vacuum windwo glazing and double pane glazing. The overall heat transfer coefficient(U) value and thermal performance were analyzed by theroretical method on various kins of windows. TRNSYS program was used to analyze total heating and cooling energy consumption on the model building which has various windows. As the result, better thermal insulation can be achieved on the vacuum window glazing than double pane glazing when low-$\varepsilon$ coating was done on the surface of glass. Total heating and cooling energy consumption was almost same on the double pane window glazing but was lessened on the vacuum window glazing when the window size of south direction increased. Therefore, low-$\varepsilon$ coating was very necessary for vacuum window glazing in order to improve thermal insulation performance and efficient energy conservation can be achieved by vacuum window glazing at the real building which has large window.

Failure mechanisms were investigated for the two layer thermal barrier coatings consisting of NiCrAlY bond coat and $ZrO_2$-8wt.% $Y_2O_3$ ceramic coating during cyclic oxidation. $Al_2O_3$ developed at the ceramic coating/bond coat interface first, followed by the Cr/Ni rich oxides such as $NiCr_2O_4$ and $Ni(Al, Cr)_2O_4$ during cyclic oxidation. It was observed that the spalling of ceramic coatings took place primarily within the NiCrAlY bond coat oxidation products or at the interface between the bond coat oxidation products and zirconia based ceramic coating or the bond coat. It was also observed that the fracture within these oxidation products occurred with the formation of $Ni(Cr, Al)_2O_4$ spinel or Cr/Ni rich oxides. It was therefore concluded that the formation of these oxides was a life-limiting event for the thermal barrier coatings.

아연말 코팅은 친환경성 및 고성능으로 인하여 널리 사용되고 있다. 일반적으로 코팅온도가 코팅층 두께 및 코팅 품질을 결정하는 주요한 요소이며 아연말 코팅의 경우에도 코팅 룸 내 균일하며 적절한 코팅온도가 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 일반적으로 사용하는 자연대류 상태에서의 아연말 스프레이 코팅 룸의 온도 분포를 해석하기 위해 룸 내부의 공기 유동을 포함하는 열 유동 전산 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 3차원 CAD 프로그램인 SolidWorks를 이용하여 스프레이 코팅 룸 전체와 예열실과 건조실을 모두 고려한 모델링을 수행하였으며 ANSYS의 FLUENT 프로그램을 이용하여 열 유동연성 해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과 스프레이 코팅 룸에서의 온도 분포 특성을 파악할 수 있었으며, 현재의 상태로는 목표 온도 값인 $25^{\circ}C$에 미달하고 있었음을 알 수 있었다. 이에 두 가지 다른 경계조건 (히터를 추가하는 방법과 현재 상태에서 Open 부분을 닫는 방법) 에 대해 열 유동 시뮬레이션을 수행하였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과 히터를 추가하기보다는 Open된 부분을 닫는 방법이 더 좋은 결과를 나타내었다.

This work presents functionally graded coatings (FGC) of hydroxyapatite (HA) and metallic powders on Ti-6Al-4V implants using plasma spray coating method. HA has been the most frequently used coating material due to its excellent compatibility with human bones. However, because of the abrupt changes in thermomechanical properties between HA and the metallic implant across an interface, and residual stress induced on cooling from coating temperture to room temperature, debonding at the interface occurs in use sometimes. In this work, FGC of HA and Ti or Ti-alloy powders is made to mitigate the abrupt property changes at the interface and the effect of FGC on residual stress release is investigated by evaluating the mechanical bond strength between the implant and the HA coating layers. Thermal annealing is done after coating in order to crystallize the HA coating layer which tends to have amorphous structure during thermal spray coating. The effects of types and compositional ratio of metallic powders in FGC and annealing conditions on the bond strength are also evaluated by strength tests and the microstructure analysis of coating layers and interfaces. Finally, biocompatibility of the coating layers are tested under ISO 10993-5.

The engine parts material used in gas turbines (GTs) should be resistant to high-temperature variations. Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) for gas turbine blades are found to have a significant effect on prolonging the life cycle of turbine blades by providing additional heat resistance. This work is to study the performance of TBCs on the high-temperature environment of the turbine blades. It is understood that this coating will increase the lifecycles of blade parts and decrease maintainence and repair costs. Experiments were performed on the gas turbine blade to see the effect of TBCs in different combinations of materials through the air plasma method. Three-layered coatings using materials INCONEL 718 as base coating, NiCoCrAIY as middle coating, and La₂Ce₂O₇ as the top coating was applied. Finite element analysis was performed using a two-dimensional method to optimize the suitable formulation of coatings on the blade. Temperature distributions for different combinations of coatings layers with different materials and thickness were studied. Additionally, three-dimensional thermal stress analysis was performed on the blade with a commercial code. Results on the effect of TBCs shows a significant improvement in thermal resistance compared to the uncoated gas turbine blade.

High temperature oxidation behavior of thermal barrier coating (TBC) system (IN738 substrate + NiCoCrAlY or NiAl bond coat with or without Pt + yttria stabilized zirconia) prepared by air plasma spray (APS) process has been studied in order to understand the effect of Pt addition to bond coat on the stability of TBC system. Specimens were oxidized in thermal cycling and isothermal oxidation test at $1100^{\circ}C$. The Pt addition in TBC system with NiCoCrAlY bond coat showed a longer life time compared to that without addition of Pt. Pt addition to TBC system is believed to help the formation of more stable thermally grown oxide, $Al_2O_3$, at the TBC/bond coat interface, leading to a longer lifetime of TBC system.
