본 연구에서는 Indium-Tin-Oxide 인쇄 박막의 원격 검출이 가능한 해양오염 방제용 센서로서의 응용 가능성에 대해 연구하였다. 우선 양질의 박막제작을 위한 바인더 비율, Indium-Tin-Oxide 중 주석 농도, 열처리 온도 등의 Indium-Tin-Oxide 인쇄박막 제작 조건을 최적화시켰다. 이를 이용하여 전기저항형 액체 센서를 제작하였고, 센서 동작을 확인하기 위하여 대기 중과 해수 중에서 저항 변화를 확인하였다. 이때 저항 변화의 원인은 전해질 속에서 표면에서 일어나는 환원반응에 의한 것으로 해석하였다. 또한 제작된 센서를 Arduino를 사용하여 작동시키고 취득한 데이터의 원격 검출이 가능함을 확인하였다.

일반적으로 선박 및 해양구조물, 그리고 심해 설비의 가장 적절한 부식 방지법으로는 음극방식법이 널리 사용되고 있다. 해수 중에 이러한 음극방식법이 적용될 경우, 음극전류가 용존 해 있는 산소를 환원시킴으로써 음극분극 된 설비 표면에 수산화 이온을 다량 발생시키게 되고, 이로 인하여 계면에서의 pH는 증가하게 된다. 또한 탄산이온의 농도 역시 증가하게 되어, 바닷물 속에 용해되어 있는 마그네슘과 칼슘 이온들이 이들 수산화 이온 및 탄산 이온과 결합함으로써, 수산화마그네슘 및 탄산칼슘을 주성분으로 하는 무기물 층이 설비 표면에 석출하게 되는데 이렇게 형성된 피막을 일반적으로 "석회질 피막"이라고 한다. 이러한 무기물 층은 해수라는 부식환경에서 모재를 보호하는 물리적 장벽으로서의 역할을 함은 물론 음극방식을 할 때 요구되는 전류밀도를 감소시키는 역할을 하게 된다. 한편 이러한 해수 중에서의 석회질 피막의 형성은 전위, 전류, pH, 온도, 시간 등을 포함한 많은 변수들에 의해 변화하게 되는데, 이에 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 변수들 중 특히나 해수의 온도 및 시험편 표면 조건에 따른 무기물 층의 피막구조변화 및 특성변화를 살펴봄으로서 환경친화적인 코팅막의 개발에 대한 설계지침을 제공 할 수 있었다.

The corrosion damage of materials in marine environment mainly occurs by Cl^- ions due to the breakdown of passive films. Additionally, various characteristics in seawater such as salinity, temperature, immersion time, flow rate, and biological activity also affect corrosion characteristics. In this study, the corrosion characteristics of stainless steels (STS 304 and STS 316L) and anodized aluminum alloys (AA 3003 and AA 6063) were evaluated with seawater temperature parameters. A potentiodynamic polarization experiment was conducted in a potential range of -0.25 V to 2.0 V at open circuit potential (OCP). Corrosion current density and corrosion potential were obtained through the Tafel extrapolation method to analyze changes in corrosion rate due to temperature. Corrosion behavior was evaluated by measuring weight loss before/after the experiment and also observing surface morphology through a scanning electronic microscope (SEM) and 3D microscopy. Weight loss, maximum damage depth and pitting damage increased as seawater temperature increased, and furthermore, the tendency of higher corrosion current density with an increase of temperature attributed to an increase in corrosion rate. There was lower pitting damage and lower corrosion current density for anodized aluminum alloys than for stainless steels as the temperature increased.

The 5xxx series aluminum alloys are recently used in not only marine system but also automotive area because of a low density material, good mechanical properties and better resistance to corrosion. However, Aluminum alloys are less resistant than the purest aluminum such as 1xxx aluminum alloy. Electrochemical anodization technique has attracted in the area of surface treatment because of a simple procedure, a low-cost efficiency than other techniques such as lithography and a large volume of productivity, and so on. Here, The relationship between the corrosion behavior and the thickness of aluminum anodic oxide have been studied. Prior to anodization, The 5052 aluminum sheets ($30{\times}20{\times}1mm$) were degreased by ultra-sonication in acetone and ethanol for 10 minutes and eletropolished in a mixture of perchloric acid and ethanol (1:4, volume ratio) under an applied potential of 20V for 60 seconds to obtain a regular surface. During anodization process, Aluminum alloy was used as a working electrode and a platinum was used as a counter electrode. The two electrodes were separated at a distance of 5cm. The applied voltage of anodization is conducted at 40V in a 0.3M oxalic acid solution at $0^{\circ}C$ with appropriate magnetic stirring. The surface morphology and the thickness of AAO films was observed with a Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The corrosion behavior of all samples was evaluated by an open-circuit potential and potentio-dynamic polarization test in 3.5wt% NaCl solution. Thus, The corrosion resistance of 5052 aluminum alloy is improved by the formation of an anodized oxide film as function of increase anodization time which artificially develops on the metal surface. The detailed electrochemical behavior of aluminum 5052 alloy will be discussed in view of the surface structures modified by anodization conditions such as applied voltages, concentration of electrolyte, and temperature of electrolyte.

In the field of medical and marine industries, antibacterial surfaces have been emerged as one of the most important issues. Recently, many researchers have been studying antibacterial surfaces to kill bacteria or prevent the adhesion of bacteria. In their researches, various materials and structures are suggested to inhibit the adhesion of bacteria or kill the attached bacteria. However, chemical materials such as antibiotics or metal could be toxic. Moreover, frequent use of antibiotics causes super bacteria having resistance to antibiotics. In this study, nano-pillar structured surface was fabricated using polyurethane acrylate (PUA) and the mechanically induced antibacterial function was confirmed based on the fabricated nanostructures. Nanostructures can damage the bacterial membrane of Gram-negative bacteria through stretching of bacterial membrane via interaction with the nanostructures and the bacterial membrane. Consequently, the proposed transparent, flexible and nanostructured PUA films can be one of promising candidates for antifouling and antibacterial surfaces which can be applied in various industries.

본 연구에서는 Mg acetate 수용액을 사용한 간편한 도핑방법으로 불순물을 주입하여 성장한 $Ga_2O_3$ 박막의 불순물 주입 효과에 대해 연구하였다. MOCVD 방법을 이용해 Si 기판 위에 undoped $Ga_2O_3$ 박막과 Mg-doped $Ga_2O_3$ 박막을 각각 $600^{\circ}C$와 $900^{\circ}C$의 성장온도에서 30분간 성장하였다. 표면 형상 분석 결과 Mg 불순물 주입에 따른 큰 차이는 확인되지 않았으며 $900^{\circ}C$에서 성장한 박막의 표면이 $600^{\circ}C$에서 성장한 박막의 표면보다 큰 거칠기를 가지고 다결정화 되는 것을 확인하였다. 광학적 특성 분석 결과, 도핑된 샘플의 경우 전체적인 발광 피크가 red shift 되었고 UV 방출 세기가 커지는 특성을 보였다. I-V 측정 결과로부터 Mg 불순물에 의해 $600^{\circ}C$ 성장 박막의 누설전류가 감소하고, $900^{\circ}C$ 성장 박막의 광전류는 증가하는 효과를 확인하였다.

Many surface protection methods have been developed to apply for constructional steels used under severe corrosive environment. Thermal spray coating has been known to be an attractive technique due to its relatively high coating speed. Furthermore high corrosion resistance of coated film with thermal spray is required to expand its application. Four types of coated films(DFT:300 um) such as pure zinc, pure aluminum and two Al-Zn alloy (Al:Zn=85:15 and Al:Zn=95:5) onto the carbon steel (SS401) were prepared with arc spray, and the corrosion behavior of their samples were evaluated by electrochemical method in this study. Pure aluminum sample showed high corrosion resistance behavior exposed to sea water solution and pure zinc and alloy (Al:Zn=95:5) samples followed pure aluminum sample. The other alloy(Al:Zn=85:15) so called galvalume coated onto the carbon steel ranks the 4th corrosion resistance in this study. The results of porosity ratio of those samples by observation are well matched with the electrochemical data.
