  • In order to develop the economic and environmental water-soluble black coloring agent, some adequate chemical mixtures were mixed and this solution was applied to coat quenched and tempered 51B20 steel bolt. Some basic properties of the solution and characteristics of the coated film in addition to the corrosion resistance were investigated. The developed 100 kg of water-soluble black coloring agent solution was a chemical mixture consisted of 10 kg of aqueous coloring agent, 40 kg of surface active agent, 0.3 kg of anti-foam agent and $50{\ell}$ of water. The coated film of the bolt was composed of hard layer of about $2{\mu}m$ and the disbondable soft layer of about $4{\mu}m$ above the hard layer. Many surface active agents peaks and a few hydrophilic peaks were observed in the coated film. Surface roughness value of the coated bolt was lower than that of the non-coated bolt. Corrosion resistance of the coated bolt considerably improved and also relatively showed a good polarization resistance at test condition of $40^{\circ}C$ colorizing temperature and 5% the solution concentration in 3% NaCl anodic polarization test. Initial appearance time of the surface rust was greatly retarded owing to the coated film in salt spray test.

  • 알루미늄과 그 합금은 내부식성(corrosion resistance)이 좋고, 밀도가 낮아 높은 연료소비 효율을 필요로 하는 항공기와 자동차 같은 운송수단의 내-외장 소재로 사용되고 있다. 또한 알루미늄의 높은 내부식성을 이용하여 철강소재의 부식을 방지하는 보호막으로도 폭 넓게 사용된다. 물리기상증착(physical vapor deposition)으로 알루미늄을 코팅하면 박막 성장 초기단계에서 핵(nucleus)을 형성하고, 형성된 핵을 중심으로 주상 구조(columnar structure)로 박막이 성장하는 것이 일반적으로 알려진 방식이다. 주상 구조의 알루미늄 박막은 주상정과 주상정 사이에 필연적으로 공극(pore)이 존재하게 되어 부식을 일으키는 물질이 박막으로 침투하게 되고, 부식 물질과 모재가 반응하여 공식(pitting corrosion)이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 스퍼터링(magnetron sputtering)을 이용하여 치밀한 조직을 갖는 알루미늄 박막을 코팅할 수 있는 공정을 개발하고, 치밀한 알루미늄 조직이 내부식성에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 평가하였다. 기판은 냉연강판(cold rolled steel sheet)이 사용되었으며, 알루미늄 타겟의 순도는 99.999%, 크기는 직경 4"이었다. 냉연강판은 진공용기(vacuum chamber)에 장착하기 전에 계면활성제를 이용하여 표면에 존재하는 기름성분을 제거하였으며, 진공용기에 장착한 후에는 아르곤 가스를 이용하여 발생시킨 글로우 방전으로 표면에 존재하는 산화물을 제거하였다. 알루미늄 박막의 조직에 영향을 미치는 공정변수를 확인하기 위해서 스퍼터링 파워, 공정 온도, 공정 압력, 외부 자기장 세기 등의 공정 조건을 변화시켜 코팅을 실시하였다. 실험을 통해서 얻어진 최적 조건으로 알루미늄을 코팅할 경우, 알루미늄 bulk의 밀도와 비교하여 약 94.7%의 밀도를 갖는 알루미늄 박막을 코팅할 수 있었다. 알루미늄 박막이 약 3 ${\mu}$m의 두께로 코팅된 냉연강판의 내부식성 평가(salt spray test, 5% NaCl) 결과, 평가를 시작한 후 72시간 후에도 적청이 발생하지 않았다.

  • Various types of multilayer coatings including Al/$Al_2O_3$ structure have been prepared on Nd-Fe-B permanent magnet to modify the morphology of the coating and to enhance the corrosion resistance of the magnet. Magnetron sputtering has been employed to make the multilayer coatings. $Al_2O_3$sputtering conditions were optimized in reactive sputtering by varying the deposition parameters. The formation of $Al_2O_3$ film was confirmed from the binding energy shift measured by electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis. 3 types of coating structures were designed and prepared by magnetron sputtering. The coating structures consist of (1) single Al coating, (2) modified coatings having oxide or plasma treated layer in the middle of coating structure, and (3) Al/$Al_2O_3$ multilayer coatings. Surface and cross-sectional morphologies showed that Al/$Al_2O_3$ multilayer grew as a layered structure, and that very compact Zone 3 like structure were formed. X-ray diffraction peak showed that the crystal orientations of multilayer coatings were similar to that of the bulk powder pattern. Hardness increased drastically when the Al thickness was around 1im in the Al/$Al_2O_3$ multilayer. From the salt spray test and pressure cooker test, it has been shown that the multilayer coatings showed good corrosion resistance compared to Al single or modified layer coatings.

  • Chloride penetration is among the main causes of corrosion initiation in reinforced concrete (RC) structures producing premature degradations. Weather and exposure conditions directly affect chloride ingress mechanisms and therefore the operational service life and safety of RC structures. Consequently, comprehensive chloride ingress models are useful tools to estimate corrosion initiation risks and minimize maintenance costs for RC structures placed under chloride-contaminated environments. This paper first presents a coupled thermo-hydro-chemical model for predicting chloride penetration into concrete that accounts for realistic weather conditions. This complete numerical model takes into account multiple factors affecting chloride ingress such as diffusion, convection, chloride binding, ionic interaction, and concrete aging. Since the complete model could be computationally expensive for long-term assessment, this study also proposes model simplifications in order to reduce the computational cost. Long-term chloride assessments of complete and reduced models are compared for three locations in France (Brest, Strasbourg and Nice) characterized by different weather and exposure conditions (tidal zone, de-icing salts and salt spray). The comparative study indicates that the reduced model is computationally efficient and accurate for long-term chloride ingress modeling in comparison to the complete one. Given that long-term assessment requires larger climate databases, this research also studies how climate models may affect chloride ingress assessment. The results indicate that the selection of climate models as well as the considered training periods introduce significant errors for mid- and long- term chloride ingress assessment.

  • Plasma nitrocarburising and plasma post oxidation were performed to improve the wear and corrosion resistance of S45C and SCM440 steel by a plasma ion nitriding system. Plasma nitrocarburizing was conducted for 3h at $570^{\circ}C$ in the nitrogen, hydrogen and methane atmosphere to produce the ${\varepsilon}-Fe_{2-3}$(N, C) phase. Plasma post oxidation was performed on the nitrocarburized samples with various oxygen/hydrogen ratio at constant temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The very thin magnetite ($Fe_3O_4$) layer $1-2{\mu}m$ in thickness on top of the $15{\sim}25{\mu}m$ ${\varepsilon}-Fe_{2-3}$(N, C) compound layer was obtained by plasma post oxidation. A salt spray test and electrochemical testing revealed that in the tested 5% NaCl solution, the corrosion characteristics of the nitrocarburized compound layer could be further improved by the application of the superficial magnetite layer. Throttle valve shafts were treated under optimum plasma processing conditions. Accelerated life time test results, using throttle body assembled with shaft treated by plasma nitrocarburising and post oxidation, showed that plasma nitrocarburizing and plasma post oxidation processes could be a viable technology in the very near future which can replace $Cr^{6+}$ plating.

  • This paper presents experimental and analytical research results to predict nonlinear flexural behavior of corroded reinforced concrete beams. For this purpose, a series of test and an analytical simulation using the Maaddawy's model were carried. Test specimens of total 12 RC beams were placed in accelerated corrosion status using salt water spray test chamber for 5 months and 10 months, after they were preloaded up to 30% and 60% of the maximum load corresponding to nominal flexural strength. The test results showed that flexural strength and ductility decreased to 5.4% and 43% at the most respectively due to breakdown of bond at the steel-concrete interface. Comparative study between the analytical predictions and the experimental results showed that the Maaddawy's model can be applied to predict a real corroded RC flexural members.

  • Oblique angle deposition (OAD) is a physical vapor deposition method which utilizes non-normal angles between the substrate and the vaporizing source. It has been known that tilting the substrate changes the properties of the film deposited on it, which was thought to be a result of morphological change of the film. In this study, OAD has been applied to prepare single and multilayer Al films by magnetron sputtering. The magnetron sputtering source of 4 inch diameter was used to deposit the films. Al films have been deposited on Si wafers and cold-rolled steel sheets. The multilayer films were prepared by changing the tilting angle upside down at each layer interval, which means that when the first layer was deposited at an angle of $+45^{\circ}$, the second layer was deposited at an angle of $-45^{\circ}$, and vice versa. The microstructure, surface roughness and reflectance of the films were investigated using a scanning electron microscope, a surface profiler and a spectrophotometer, respectively. The corrosion resistance was measured and compared using the salt spray test. The single layer film prepared at an oblique angle of $60^{\circ}$ prepared at other angles. However, for the multilayer films, the film prepared at an oblique angle of $45^{\circ}$ showed the most compact and featureless structure. The multilayer films were found to exhibit higher corrosion resistance than the single layer films.

  • In this study, the effect of drying temperature on characteristics of the trivalent chromate film on electroplated zinc was investigated. An zinc-electroplated iron specimen with a thickness of 5 ㎛ was used for chromate treatment. Chromate treatment was conducted in a solution diluted 10 times from a mixture of Cr(NO3)3·9H20 360 g/L, Co(NO3)2·6H2O 60 g/L, Na2SO4 60 g/L, NH4F·HF 25 g/L, and NaOH 20 g/L. The zinc electroplated specimen was treated using the chromate solution with pH 2.0 at 25 ℃ for 60 s. Subsequently, chromate-treated samples were dried in an electric furnace for 2h with temperature varied from 25 to 125 ℃. The corrosion rate increased with the increase in the drying temperature, and the surface morphology of the chromate-treated film was observed using FE-SEM. When the drying temperature changed, the color of the chromate film changed from green to yellow, and the thickness of the film changed from 362 to 241 nm, respectively. Additionally, corrosion resistance was evaluated via a salt spray test.

  • 알루미늄은 경량 금속으로 부식 저항력이 높아 철을 부식으로부터 보호하기 위한 표면처리 소재로 사용되고 있다. 철의 부식을 방지하기 위해서 알루미늄을 코팅하는 경우, 코팅 방법은 용융도금법이 주로 사용되고 있으며, 알루미늄을 빛의 반사막으로 활용하는 경우 진공 중에서 물리기상증착(physical vapor deposition; PVD)법을 사용하기도 한다. 알루미늄 박막을 물리기상 증착으로 코팅하면 박막성장 초기에 핵(nucleus)을 형성하고, 형성된 핵을 중심으로 주상정(column)으로 박막이 성장하는 것이 일반적이다. 알루미늄 박막의 주상정과 주상정 사이에 공극(pore)이 존재하기 때문에 알루미늄 박막을 부식방지 막으로 이용하기 위해서는 두께를 증가시켜야 한다. 본 연구에서는 스퍼터링(unbalanced magnetron sputtering)을 이용하여 치밀한 조직을 갖는 알루미늄 박막을 코팅할 수 있는 공정변수를 도출하고, 치밀한 알루미늄 조직이 철의 부식에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 기판은 냉연강판(cold rolled steel sheet)이 사용되었으며, 알루미늄 타겟의 크기는 직경 4 inch이었다. 알루미늄 박막의 미세조직과 밀도에 영향을 주는 공정변수를 확인하기 위해서 스퍼터링 파워, 공정 압력, 외부 자기장 세기 등의 조건을 변화시켜 코팅을 실시하였다. 알루미늄 박막의 밀도 변화에 가장 큰 영향을 준 공정변수는 외부 자기장의 세기와 방향이었다. 알루미늄 박막이 약 3 ${\mu}m$의 두께로 코팅된 냉연강판을 염수분무시험(salt spray test, 5% NaCl)으로 부식특성을 평가한 결과, 시험을 시작한 후 120시간 후에도 적청이 발생하지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 기존의 동일한 두께를 갖는 알루미늄이 코팅된 강판의 내부식 특성의 2배의 성능을 보여준다.

  • 마그네슘 합금은 낮은 비중, 높은 비강도, 주조성 및 절삭가공성, 치수안정성, 내흠집성이 우수한 특성을 지니고 있는 경량금속으로써 우수한 주조성과 상온강도, 연신율을 나타낸다. 최근에는 마그네슘 합금을 사용한 IT 기기의 케이스 및 자동차 내, 외장 부품 등의 제품이 다양하게 출시되어지며 금속 질감의 감성 기능까지 적용시킨 전자 기기 제품에 대한 수요가 급증하고 있는 추세이다. 하지만 마그네슘 합금의 낮은 부식 저항성은 마그네슘 합금을 적용시킨 제품에 큰 단점으로 작용되고 있으며 이를 해결하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 전해산화법과 실리카 졸-겔 코팅법을 이용하여 마그네슘 합금의 내부식성을 향상시킴과 동시에 금속질감의 감성 기능을 구현하고자 하였다. 플라즈마 전해산화 공정으로 형성된 산화피막층과 $SiO_2$ 코팅으로 형성된 코팅층의 표면과 단면에 대해서는 FE-SEM(Field emission Scanning Electron Microscope)과 FE-TEM(Field emission Transmission Electron Microscope)으로써 확인하였고 전기화학적 특성 분석을 통한 동전위(Potentiodynamic polarization)와 EIS(Eletrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy) 그리고 Salt spray등을 분석하였다.
