In the galvanizing coating process, the effects of the silicon content on the coatability and wettability of molten zinc were investigated on Dual-Phase High Strength Steels (DP-HSS) with various Si contents using the galvanizing simulator and dynamic reactive wetting systems. DP-HSS showed good coatability and a well-developed inhibition layer in the range of Si content below 0.5 wt%. Good coatability was the results of the mixed oxide $Mn_{2}SiO_{4}$, being formed by the selective oxidation on the surface, with a low contact angle in molten zinc and a large fraction of oxide free surface that provided a sufficient site for the molten zinc to wet and react with the substrate. On the other hand, with more than 0.5 wt%, DP-HSS exhibited poor coatability and an irregularly developed inhibition layer. The poor coatability was due to the poor wettability that resulted from the development of network-type layers of amorphous ${SiO}_{2}$, leading to a high contact angle in molten zinc, on the surface.

Sink roll has been used in molten Zn-0.2%Al alloy bath of continuous galvanizing line in sinking and stabilizing process of the steel strip in molten metal bath. In this process, although the scraper scraps off the sink roll surface, the dross compounds is builded up on the sink roll surface and the life time of the sink roll is shorten by the dross compounds. The present study was investigated the application of the spray coating layer on sink roll body for improving durability In molten Zn-0.2%Al alloy. Through the durability tests in molten Zn-0.2%Al alloy with various ceramic and cermet coating layer, the optimum bond and top coating material was obtained. As the results, the system of STS430F base metal, WC-l7Co bond and $ZrO_2-SiO_2$ top coating was clarified to be the best quality of durability in molten Zn-0.2%Al alloy.

Rare earth metal Ce has a relatively low melting point and high specific gravity. Because of its significantly high affinity to oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur, it is highly usable as a steel refining agent. However, because Ce compound has relatively high specific gravity, it is difficult to be separated from molten steel through floatation, and it degrades the purity of molten steel, or may clog the nozzle in continuous casting. Such problem may be solved by using an appropriate deoxidation agent together with Ce and settling molten steel sufficiently after refining. Thus a fundamental study in the formation behavior of non-metallic inclusion in Ce added Hyper Duplex STS melts was investigated. The addition amount of Ce, melt temperature were considered as experimental variables. A main non-metallic inclusion in mother alloy is 51(wt%MnO) - 27.6(wt%SiO$_2$)- 10.9(wt%$Cr_2O_3$). Non-metallic inclusion was dramatically decreased and the particle size was fined as the amount of Ce increased. Moreover (%MnO) and (%SiO$_2$) of non-metallic inclusion were decreased. But (%$Al_2O_3$)were relatively increased. The number of non-metallic inclusion were decreased and the large particle size were increased by increasing the temperature of molten steel.

Wear test on two die steels for aluminum die casting was carried out by dipping and rotating the specimens into the molten aluminum maintained $680^{\circ}C{\sim}780^{\circ}C$. The rotating speed of the specimen was $4.5rpm{\sim}20.0rpm$. Diffusion layer was formed between the die steel and molten aluminum, and became thicker with dipping time. Wear rate was not proportional with the thickness of the diffusion layer, but was closely related to the density of the diffusion layer. Wear rate was little affected by the kind of die steel and by the microstructure such as martensite, tempered martensite, and pearlite. Specimen with nitrided surface showed good wear resistance, and its wear rate was decreased with increase in the thickness of nitrided layer. While whole surface was worn in heat treated specimens, wear of nitrided specimens was proceeded by pitting partially.

The behavior of hydrogen in the steel making process was investigated. The relation between the composition of ladle slag and hydrogen concentration in molten steel was considered. The hydrogen distribution ratio between ladle slag and molten steel was increased with increasing basicity of the slag; it was about 20 when the basicity of slag was 15. Hydroxyl capacity measured from the hydrogen distribution ratio between slag and the molten steel was comparatively corresponding to the value of hydroxyl capacity measured by the equilibrium reaction of slag and $H_2O$ gas. However, it is considerably different from the value calculated by regular solution model. The influence of hydrogen on a sticking type breakout is considered. The effect of hydrogen and $H_2O$ gas on the crystallization behavior of mold powder was investigated by DHTT (Dual hot thermocouple technique). As a result, it was proved that mold powder could be crystallized by $H_2O$ gas in the atmosphere. Therefore, it is concluded that $H_2O$ gas in the atmosphere can be a possible cause of the sticking type breakout that occasionally occurs in the continuous casting process.

A new steel-making process, strip-casting, is introduced. The strip-casting is a new technique making the thin steel strip from the molten steel directly without resorting to repetitive reheating and hot-rolling required in a conventional steel-making method. This paper derives the mathematical model of strip caster, proposes a control strategy for stable startup operation and a fuzzy decision making rule for automatic control mode change in strip-casting process.

대부분의 용용융아연도금 설비는 오픈된 공간에서 용융된 아연을 사용하고 있기 때문에 용융된 아연의 용탕에서 발생되는 고온, Zn Fume 등에 의한 산화가 발생되고 있다. 현재 설비에 사용되고 있는 소재는 SM45C(기계구조용 탄소강, KS규격)으로 사용되고 있다. Zn Fume이 집중적으로 발생되고 있는 부분의 설비를 부분적으로 고온, Zn Fume에 강한 재료를 사용한다면 설비의 수명과 성능향상에 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 직접 설계한 Ni 합금과 Inconel 합금을 직접 고온, Zn Fume 환경에서 산화 시켜 각각의 부식성을 확인하여 비교 분석하였으며, 용융아연도금에 사용되는 용탕의 종류를 나누어 용탕에 따른 각 합금의 부식성 등을 확인하여 보았다. 500~700도로 내에 Zn, Al-Zn 용탕을 두고 Ar 가스를 이용하여 용탕에서 직접 버블링하여 Zn fumef를 발생시켜 고온, Zn fume에 의해 강제 부식을 행하는 실험을 하였다. 30일 후의 sample들을 꺼내어 표면의 산화층을 광학현미경, SEM으로 확인하고, 동전위분극 시험을 이용하여 부식성을 분석하였으며, 부식성은 용탕의 종류에 따라 달라지는 모습을 보였다.

침지노즐(SEN)의 재료로 사용되는 지르코니아/흑연 재질에서 용강 및 슬래그에 의한 침식의 형태를 살펴본 결과, 침식의 첫번째 기구는 부분안정화 지르코니아 내 안정화제인 CaO가 용강 및 슬래그에 의해 용해되면서 입방정 안정화 지르코니아가 단사정상으로 상전이하여 일어났는데, 상전이 시 부피팽창에 의한 균열이 발생하고 파괴가 진행되었고, 이로 인하여 미세 $ZrO_2$입자의 용해 및 탈락이 촉진되었다. 침식의 두 번째 기구는 슬래그가 큰 c-$ZrO_2$입자의 입계를 따라 침투하여 작은 입자들로 분리시키고, 작은 입자들이 용강과 슬래그에 탈락되어 진행되었다. 마지막 기구로는 입방정 지르코니아와 흑연이 반응하여 다공질의 미세한 ZrC 상을 형성하고, 이들이 slag에 용해되면서 침식이 진행되었다.

용융탄산염 연료전지 분리판의 wet-seal부의 내식성 향상을 위한 NiAl 피복공정이 조사되었다. AlSl 316 스테인레스강위에 Ni과 Al를 순차적으로 피복한 후, $800^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 열처리하여 NiAl상이 형성됨을 확인할 수 있었다. NiAl상이 피복된 스테인레스강은 $650^{\circ}C$, 용융탄산염($62^{m}/_{o}Li_2CO_3-38^{m}/_{o}/K_{2}CO_{3}$)내에서 침지시험을 통해 내식성이 평가되었는데, AISI 316 스테인레스강에 비해 우수한 내식성을 보였다. 이는 표면에 치밀하게 형성된 AI 산화물층에 의한 것으로 판단되었다.

The demand on thermos furnace of Al molten metal has recently been getting higher and higher according to the increase in use of Al and Al alloys. This study considers the estimation of the thermal and mechanical stability in the thermos furnace for Al casting. It is executed through the analysis of heat transfer on the refractory material and heat stress on each steel shell. Also, the estimation of structural stability was appraised through the strength analysis of the lower structure. In result, the temperature of steel shell rose to 320.15K and its elastic deformation was about 1.5mm. The elastic deformation of the lower structure was about 0.66mm. As a result of it, the data obtain from the analysis in this study are regarded as stable value on considering that the size of the furnace is 2500mm.
