$Ti_{0.26}Al_{0.16}Si_{0.01}N_{0.57}$ (at%) coatings were synthesized on stainless steel 304 by using arc ion plating systems (AIPS). Targets employed for the deposition were Ti, AlSi(67:33at%) and AlSi(82:18at%). The thickness of TiAlSiN coatings is $4{\mu}m$. The oxidation characteristics of the deposited coatings were studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in air between 800 and $900^{\circ}C$ for 75 hr. The oxide scale formed on the TiAlSiN coatings consisted of $rutile-TiO_2$ layer and ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$. At $800^{\circ}C$, the coatings oxidized relatively slowly, and the scales were thin and adherent. When oxidized above $900^{\circ}C$, $TiO_2$ grew fast over the mixed oxide layer, and the oxide scale formed on TiAlSiN coatings was prone to spallation. Microstructural changes of the TiAlSiN coatings that occurred during high temperature oxidation were investigated by EPMA, XRD, SEM and TEM.

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of the sedation technique for implant surgery by combining the use of inhalation of nitrous oxide/oxygen with intravenous midazolam. Methods: Patients requiring surgery for the placement of dental implants were randomly allocated to two groups receiving intravenous midazolam or a combined technique using nitrous oxide/oxide and intravenous midazolam. Safety parameters, cooperation scores, anxiety scales, total amount of midazolam administered and recovery time were recorded and compared. Results: There were a statistically significant reduction in the amount of midazolam required to achieve optimal sedation (P<0.01), an overall significant reduction in recovery time (P<0.01), a significant reduction in anxiety scales (P<0.05), and a significant improvement in cooperation (P<0.05) and peripheral oxygen saturation (P<0.05) when a combined technique of inhalational $N_2O/O_2$ and midazolam was used. Conclusions: For implant surgery, this combining sedation technique could be safe and reliable, demonstrating reduction of total dose of midazolam and level of patient's anxiety and improvement in patient's recovery and cooperation.

Scales, accumulated on semiconductor equipment parts during device fabrication processes, often lower equipment lifetime and production yields. Thus, many equipments parts have be cleaned regularly. In this study, an attempt to establish an effective process for the removal of scales on the sidewall of collimators in the chamber of sputter is made. The EDX analysis revealed that the scales are composed of Ti and TiN with the colummar structure. It was found that the heat-treatment at 700 for 1 min. after the oxide removal in the HF solution, and then etching in the HNO3 : H2SO4 : H2O =4:2:4 solution for 5.5 hrs at 67 was the most effective process for the scale removal.

The oxidation behavior of commercial pure titanium is investigated in the temperature range of $727^{\circ}C{\sim}950^{\circ}C$ in mixed gases. The weight change is measured by TGA during oxidation in mixed gases. The oxidation behavior indicated by weight gain or the growth of oxide layer is based on the linear rate law at high temperatures. The structure of the oxide scale formed during oxidation is analysed by optical microscopy, electron probe microanalyzer, scanning electron microscope and x-ray diffraction. Oxide scales have a $TiO_2$ structure, and are constituted with multi-layered or two layered porous external one and a dense internal one. Ti-O solid solution region is formed at the interface of metal and scale layer. The formation of oxide scale is influenced by the oxidation temperature, time, crystal structure and the condition of atmosphere.

Alloys of XD45 (Ti45A12Nb2Mn-0.8vol%TiB$_2$) and XD47 (Ti47A12Nb2Mn-0.8vol%TiB$_2$) were oxidized between 800 and $1000^{\circ}C$ in air, and their oxidation characteristics were studied. The oxide scales consisted primarily of an outer $TiO_2$ layer, an intermediate $Al_2$$O_3$-rich layer, and an inner mixed layer of ($TiO_2$+$Al_2$$O_3$). Nb tended to present at the lower part of the oxide scale, whereas Mn at the upper part of the oxide scale. The Pt marker tests indicated that the outer oxide layer grew primarily by the outward diffusion of Ti and Mn, and the inner mixed layer by the inward transport of oxygen.

The thickness and chemical composition of oxides on heat recovery steam generator tubes of combined cycle power plant were examined in order to evaluate the corrosion of the tubes. Tubes were removed from the plant after actual operations for 21,482, 42,552 and 56,123 hours respectively. Thickness and growth rate of the oxide scale on reheater inner tube (SA213-T22) were very high compared to those other tubes. The oxide scale was about $250{\mu}m$ thick and uniform. The components of the scale were iron oxides. The oxide scale was mixed oxides consisting of magnetite$(Fe_3O_4)$ and hematite$(Fe_2O_3)$. The oxide on inner tube was removed using many kinds of chemicals and it was found that chelating agents were dissolved faster than other chemicals.

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.

The oxidation behaviour of Fe-XAl-0.1Y(X= 5, 10, 14 wt.%) alloys were investigated at 1073, 1173 and 1273 K in oxygen/ nitrogen gas atmosphere for 1∼24 hrs using SEM/EDX, XRD and EPMA. The weight changes of Fe-XAl-0.1Y alloys followed the parabolic rate law. Oxidation rates of 10Al and 14Al alloys were ten times lower than that of 5Al alloys. This is attributed to the formations of protective $A1_2$$O_3$oxides on the surface of 10Al and 14Al alloys. The oxidation product scales of the 5Al alloy showed that thick iron oxide scales($Fe_2$$O_3$, $Fe_3$$O_4$) containing porosities formed during early stages of oxidation. With continued oxidation, aluminum oxide was formed at the alloy/scale interface.

NaCl-induced hot corrosion behavior of ASTM T22 (Fe-2.25Cr-1Mo), T91 (Fe-9Cr-1Mo), T92 (Fe-9Cr-1.8W-0.5Mo), 347HFG (Fe-18-Cr-11Ni), and 310H (Fe-25Cr-19Ni) steels was studied after spraying NaCl on the surface. During corrosion at $600-800^{\circ}C$ for 50-100 h, thick, non-adherent, fragile, somewhat porous oxide scales formed. All the alloys corroded fast with large weight gains owing to fast scaling and destruction of protective oxide scales. Corrosion rates increased progressively as the corrosion temperature and time increased. Corrosion resistance increased in the order of T22, T91, T92, 347HFG, and 310H, suggesting that the alloying elements of Cr, Ni, and W beneficially improved the corrosion resistance of steels. Basically, Fe oxidized to $Fe_2O_3$, and Cr oxidized to $Cr_2O_3$, some of which further reacted with FeO to form $FeCr_2O_4$ or with NiO to form $NiCr_2O_4$.

High temperature oxidation of SUS430 and SUS304 stainless steels in 16.7 kPa $O_2$ - 20.3 kPa $H_2O$ - balanced N2 atmosphere at 1273 K was studied focused on the scale spalling during cooling after an isothermal oxidation. Spalling of the oxide scale during cooling occurred only for SUS304 stainless steel. The oxide scale was composed of two layers and they detached at the interface between them. The reason for the spalling could not be explained only by thermal stresses applied to the specimen during heating and cooling. A new mechanism for scale spalling was proposed based on combination of thermal stresses and thermal shock caused by a fast Martensite transformation of substrate metal.
