Hardfacing is one of the frequently applying method to increase surface hardness in hot forging die. Recently, hardfacing receives great attention due to it's repair availability and low cost. In hot forging die, crack resistance and thermal shock resistance have been considered as major properties, However there are few studies for the assessment of these properties. So, it is necessary to establish the assessment method for crack resistance and thermal shock resistance in hardfacing for hot forging die. In this study, flux cored arc welding was applied to make hardfacing welds. Three point bending test was carried out to assess hardfacing weld's crack resistance, and high temperature bending test using salt bath was developed for thermal shock resistance. Consequently, it was possible to assess crack resistance and thermal shock resistance of hardfacing welds for hot forging die quantitatively.

Silicon is commercially prepared by the reaction of high-purity silica with wood, charcoal, and coal, in an electric arc furnace using carbon electrodes, so called the metallurgical refining process, which produces ~98% pure Si (MG-Si). This can be further purified to solar grade silicon (SoG-Si) by various techniques. The most problematic impurity elements are B and P because of their high segregation coefficients. In this study, we explored the possibility of the using Cat-CVD for Si purification. The existing hot-wire CVD was modified to accommodate the catalyzer and the heating source. Mo boat (1.5 cm ${\times}$ 1 cm ${\times}$ 0.2 cm) was used as a heating source. Commercially available Si was purchased from Nilaco corporation (~99% pure). This powder was kept in the Mo-boat and heated to the purification temperature. In addition to the purification by cat-CVD technique, other methods such as thermal CVD, plasma enhanced CVD, vacuum annealing was also tried. It is found that the impurities are reduced to a great extent when treated with cat-CVD method.

$900^{\circ}C$이상 초고온 He-gas 분위기 또는 용융불화염 (molten salts, FLINAK) 환경에서 사용될 VHTR(Very High Temperature Reactor)의 IHX(Intermediate heat exchanger)용 열수송 구조재료로 가장 가능성이 높은 합금인 Inconel 617 및 Hastelloy X 상에 습식화학적, 물리적기상합성법(Vacuum arc-plasma과 RF magnetron sputtering) 및 pack cementation에 의한 표면개질 및 마이크로 초내열(refractory ceramics) 코팅층(TiN, TiCN, TiAlN, $Al_2O_3$, $TiO_2$)을 형성시켰다. 고온 장기사용 시 문제가 될 수 있는 고온에서의 조직변화, 미세구조와 상(phase)형성, 고온 부식 및 그에 따른 마모(wear resistance) 손상 등 이들 소재의 내열, 내식 및 내마모 물성을 개선하는 연구를 수행하였다. TiAlN 박막의 경우 공기분위기에서 N이 분해되나 치밀한 산화물($TiO_2/Al_2O_3$ layer)을 형성하여 내식성 있는 보호피막을 형성함으로 기판과의 열팽창 계수로 인한 박리가 발생하지 않아 보호피막으로 적합하였다. Pack cementation법에 의한 aluminiding(Al-Ni합금)도 He 및 공기분위기에서 고온물성의 저하를 가져오는 $Cr_2O_3$의 생성을 충분히 억제하고 있었으며 He 및 air 분위기에서 사용이 가능한 박막으로 여겨진다. 내열 및 내식성에 대한 실험을 종합한 결과, 공기분위기에서 사용할 수 없는 박막은 He-gas 및 FLINAK(LiF-NaF-KF) 용융염 분위기에서도 사용할 수 없었으며, He-gas, FLINAK 및 air 분위기에서 모두 사용이 가능한 박막으로는 Inconel 617에서는 $(TiO_2-)Al_2O_3$, TiAlN 및 Al-Ni이었고 Hastelloy에서는 Al-Ni 및 $Al_2O_3$가 가장 적당하였다.

The effects of Cr, Mo or B additions were investigated on $B2{\leftrightarrow}DO_3$ structural transition temperature $(T_C)$ and mechanical properties of Fe-28at.%Al. The raw materials were arc-melted in vacuum and then subjected to the following heat-treatments to maximize the $DO_3$ ordered structure : $1000^{\circ}C/7days$, slowly cooled to $500^{\circ}C$ and then held for 5 days. In the effect on the grain refinment, the addition of alloying element B was the most effective. The addition of Cr or Mo had little effect. When 1at.%Mo was added, $T_c$ increase about $30^{\circ}C$, but Cr had a very little effect on $T_c$. On the contrary, when B was added, $T_c$ was apt to come down minutely. In the additional effect of alloying element on the mechanical properties, Cr was apt to decrease the microvickers hardness and yield strength, Mo and B didn't have much effect. In the case of compressure strength test, the effect of the environment on the yield strength was contrary to the result of the tensile strength test.

The hydorgen storage alloys were produced by melting in arc melting furnace and then solution heat treated at $1,100^{\circ}C$ followed by pulverization. The chemical analysis on the samples showed that the major elements of misch metal(Mm) were La, Ce, Pr and Nd with impurity less than 1wt.%. X-ray diffraction indicated that the structure for these samples were a single phase of hexagonal with $CaCu_5$ type. Compared to the initial particle size $100{\sim}110{\mu}m$, the many fine cracks were found and particle size decreased to $14{\mu}m$ for $MmNi_{4.5}Mn_{0.5}$ after hydriding/dehydring test run. To activate the sample the vessel filled with hydrogen storage alloys was first evacuated for for at $70^{\circ}C$ and then treated for 10.5hr under hydrogen pressure of 20atm for $MmNi_{4.5}Mn_{0.5}$ alloy. The experimental data showed that the hydrogen storage alloy of $MmNi_{4.5}Mn_{0.5}$ had superior adsorption and description properties within a temperature rang of $40^{\circ}C{\sim}80^{\circ}C$ and also they had a good P-C-T curve.

Solar energy conversion to hydrogen was carried out via a two-step thermochemical water splitting using metal oxide redox pair. To simulate the solar radiation, a 7 kW short arc Xe-lamp was used. Partially reduced iron oxide and cerium oxide have the water splitting ability, respectively. So, $Fe_3O_4$ supported on $CeO_2$ was selected as the active material. $Fe_3O_4/CeO_2$(20 wt/80 wt%) was prepared by impregnation method, then the active material was washcoated on the ceramic honeycomb monolith made of mullite and cordierite. Oxygen was released at the reduction step($1673{\sim}1823\;K$) and hydrogen was produced from water at lower temperature($873{\sim}1273\;K$). The result demonstrate the possibility of the 2-step thermochemical water splitting hydrogen production by the active material washcoated monolith. And hydrogen and oxygen was produced separately without any separation process in a monolith installed reactor. But the SEM and EDX analysis results revealed that the support used in this experiment is not suitable due to the thermal instability and coating material migration.

HTPB/AP 혼합형 추진제(A형)와 니트라민계 산화제가 소량 함유된 추진제의 진공 점화 특성을 고찰하였다. 추진제의 임계 점화 압력은 4 psia로 판단되었고, AP의 일부를 HMX와 HNIW로 $5{\sim}l5%$ 치환한 니트라민계 혼합형 추진제(B형)에서 임계 압력은 0.4 psia, 점화지연시간은 50% 이상 향상되었다. 이는 HMX나 HNIW가 AP에 비해 낮은 온도(${\sim}220^{\circ}C$)에서 발열 분해되는 특성에 기인되는 것으로 보인다. 점화도움물질인 $B/KNO_3$를 추진제 표면에 코팅한 결과,15% 정도 점화성이 개선되었다. $B/KNO_3$에 2차 결합제로 NC를 소량 사용하고, 이를 추진제 그레인의 점화도움물질로 적응하였다.

강구조물에 있어서 여러 가지 환경요인에 의해 균열 및 부식 등의 문제가 발생되고 있다. 이는 구조물의 내구성을 저하시키는 요인이 된다. 이와 같은 문제를 해결하기 위해 용접 보수${\cdot}$보강방법을 사용할 수 있다. 이러한 보수용접은 전단 및 용접과 같은 입열 과정을 필연적으로 수반하고 있다. 따라서 이러한 입열과정에 있어서 발생되는 잔류응력 및 변형의 예측${\cdot}$제어${\cdot}$방지는 구조물의 안전이라는 측면에서 볼 때 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 2차원 및 3차원 유한요소 해석을 수행하여 가스전단 및 아크용접에 의해 얻어진 절단 및 용접 잔류응력과 변형을 구하였으며, 2차원 및 3차원 해석기법에 따른 그 값의 정도를 명확히 하였다. 해석기법에 따라 2차원 및 3차원 해석을 수행하여 얻은 절단 및 용접 잔류응련의 분포 및 그 절대치는 유사한 값을 나타내었다.

Sputter-deposited Nb-Al-Cr alloys. $3-5{\mu}m$ thick, have been prepared on quartz substrates as oxidation-and sulfidation-resistant materials at high temperatures. The oxidation or the alloys in the $Ar-O_2$ atmosphere of an oxygen partial pressure of 20 kPa follows approximately the parabolic rate law, thus being diffusion controlled. Their oxidation rates are almost the same as or even lower than those ofthc typical chromia-forming alloys. The multi-lavered oxide scales are formed on the ternary alloys. The outermost layer is composed of $Cr_2O_3$, which is"mainly responsible for the high oxidation'resistance of these alloys. In contrast to sputter-deposited Cr-Nb binary alloys reported previously, the inner layer is not porous. TEM observation as well as EDX analysis indicates that the innermost layer is a mixture of $Al_2O_3$ and niobium oxide. The dispersion of $Al_2O_3$ in niobium oxide may be attributable to the prevention of the formation of the porous oxide layer. The sulfidation rates of the present ternary alloys arc higher than those of the sputter-deposited Nb-AI binary alloys, but still several orders of magnitude lower than those of conventional high temperature alloys. Two-layered sulfide scales are formed, consisting of an outer $Al_2S_3$ layer containing chromium and an inner layer composed of $NbS_2$ and a small amount of $Cr_2S_3$. The presence of $Cr_2S_3$ in the inner protective $NbS_2$ layer may be attributed to the increase in the sulfidation rates.

Enterobacter sakazakii, designated as an unique microbial species in 1980, may cause bacteremia, necrotizing enterocolitis and infant meningitis. The distribution and the thermostability of E. sakazakii in unprocessed ready-to-eat (RTE) agricultural products of 252 and in 25 powdered infant formulas (PIF) were analyzed. Eighty one, 50, 43, and 47% of brown rice, pumpkin, potato, and carrot samples, respectively, had aerobic plate counts (ARC) in the range of 5 log CFU/g or more. Almost all the other products sampled had APC of approximately 2 log CFU/g. Fifty three, 75, 67, and 68% of banana, pumpkin, soybean, and carrot had Enterobacteriaceae counts approximating 3 log CFU/g. Sixty six percent of the brown rice tested had Enterobacteriaceae counts approximating 5-6 log CFU/g. E. sakazakii was isolated from 3/25(12%), 4/23(17%), 1/24(4%), and 1/27(4%) of PIF, brown rice, laver, and tomato samples, respectively. D-values were 3.52-4.79 min at 60 and $D_{60}-values$ were similar as the isolates reported. Thermal inactivation of four thermovariant E. sakazakii strains during the rehydration of PIF with hot water were investigated. At $50^{\circ}C$, the levels of E. sakazakii decreased one log CFU/g for 4-6 min and thereafter the levels remained stable for 20 min. At $60^{\circ}C$, inactivation by about 2 log CFU/g occurred for 20 min. Therefore, the unprocessed agricultural products might be a source of contamination for PIF when used as an ingredient after drying and pulverization. Rehydration of PIF for infant feeding with a water temperature of $60^{\circ}C$ rather than $50^{\circ}C$, as recommended by the manufacturers, may be helpful in the reduction of potential E. sakazakii risk.
