In this study the fabrication technology and mechanical properties of AC8A/$Al_2O_3$ Composites by squeeze casting process were investigated to develope for application as the piston materials that require good friction, wear resistance, and thermal stability. AC8A/$Al_2O_3$ composistes without a porosity and the break of preform were fabricated at the melt temperature of $740^{\circ}C$, the preform temperature of $500^{\circ}C$, and mold temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ under the applied pressure of $1200kg/cm^2$ as the results of the observation of microstructures. As the results of this study, the tensile strength of AC8A/$Al_2O_3$ composites was not increased linearly with $Al_2O_3$ volume fraction and so it seemed not to agree with the rule of mixture, which had been used often in metal matrix composite. Also the tensile strength after thermal fatigue test was little different from that before the test. Consequently it was thought that AC8A/$Al_2O_3$ composites fabricated under our experimental conditions had a good thermal stability and subsequently a good interface bonding. Wear rate(i.e., volume loss per unit sliding distance) of AC8A/$Al_2O_3$ composites was decreased with $Al_2O_3$ volume fraction and the sliding speed at both room temperature and $250^{\circ}C$ and so there was a good correlation between wear rate and hardness. Also the wear rate of AC/8A20% $Al_2O_3$ composities was obtained the value of $1.65cm^3/cm$ at sliding speed of 1.14m/sec as compared with about $3.0\;{\times}10^{-8}cm^3/cm$ hyereutectie Al-Si alloy(Al-16%Si-2%Cu-1%Fe-1%Ni), which applied presently for piston materials. The wear behavior of $Al_2O_3$ composites was observed to a type of abrasive wear by the SEM view of wear surface.

Al-2%Si-2%Mg alloy containing SiC particle in 20, $70{\mu}m$ were prepared by mean of squeeze casting with various pressure 50, 100, 150 and 220MPa respectively. The specimens were made by casting into $50{\Phi}{\times}100{\ell}$ mold under various squeeze conditions(pressures, pressurizing temperature, particle sizes). Mechanical properties(hardness, tensile strength, elongation and wear characteristics) were evaluated at room temperature with those various fabrication factors. It became feasible to make favorable Al-SiCp composite free from casting defects by the injection of Ar gas during melting and 100MPa pressure squeeze casting. However, pressure of 50MPa was not sufficient to avoid completely porosity formation as a result of precessing and shrinkage during solidification. As the particle size is smaller and the squeeze pressure is higher, the hardness and tensile strength at room temperature are higher. Cell size became smaller gradually with increase of squeeze pressure. With increase of squeeze pressure(MPa), wear behaviors of those composites were changed from adhesive into abrasive wear, and the tendency of above behavior became outstanding with increasing sliding speed. The chemical reaction(4Al＋3SiC${\rightarrow}$$Al_4C_3+3Si$) is more accelerated at interface between SiCp and matrix with increase of squeeze pressure. Therefore $Al_4C_3$ intercompound and Si peak intensity is increased at interface.

Reactive DC magnetron sputtering 법으로 AISI 304 스테인레스강 기판 위에 TiN 극박막을 50nm∼700nm 두께로 증착한 후, 경화된 AISI 52100 강과 알루미나를 마모 상대재로 하여 박막의 미끄럼마모 시험을 상온 대기 중에서 행하고, 마모 상대재에 따른 TiN 극박막의 마찰과 마모 거동을 연구하였다. AISI 52100 강구를 마모 상대재로 한 경우, TiN 박막은 200g 이하의 마모 하중과 0.035m/sec의 낮은 미끄럼 속도 조건에서 500nm 내외의 극박으로도 마찰계수가 0.1 내외로 유지되는 우수한 내마모성을 보였다. 이같이 우수한 내마모성은 AISI 52100 강으로부터 천이된 Fe가 산화되어 TiN 박막 표면에 Fe 산화층을 형성한 때문으로 설명되었다. 그러나, 마모 상대재를 알루미나 볼로 한 경우에는 TiN 박막 위에 산화층이 형성되지 않고, 마모가 거의 되지 않는 알루미나 볼과 박막층 사이에 국부적 응력집중 등이 발생하여 시험된 전 조건 하에서 박막층의 박리 현상이 관찰되었고 높은 마찰계수가 측정되었다. 또한 기판의 평균 표면조도, Ra가 박막의 두께와 유사할 때 마찰계수가 급격히 상승하는 현상이 관찰되었다.

A systematic study of the role of transfer films on friction properties was performed with various temperatures in the brake system. An NAO friction material specimens containing 9 ingredients were tested using a pad-on-disk type friction tester A new method of measuring the transfer film thickness was developed by considering the electrical resistance of the transfer film using a 4-point probe technique. The properties of transfer film such as surface morphology and film distribution vaied according to the relative amount of graphite and magnesium oxide. By using SEM, it was possible to obtain information about the chemical composition of the transfer film. Results showed that there detected a threshold value of the relative amount of a two active materials to maintain a certiain thickness of a transfer film. Results also showed that formation of friction layer generated on the friction surface was strongly affected by chemical action of two ingredients during sliding due to chemical reaction of solid lubricants at different interface temperature. The results suggested that no apparent relationship between transfer film thickness and the average friction coefficient was founded and friction characteristics were affected more by the property of the solid lubricant and abrasive in the material.

상온의 인발공정에서 소재는 인발다이를 통과하면서 직경이 줄어들고 길이가 늘어난다. 인발다이와 소재가 접촉한 면에서의 압력과 미끄럼 운동에 의해 소재에는 탄성회복, 인발 다이에는 마찰과 마모가 생긴다. 또한, 소재의 변형 및 마찰열로 인해 소재와 다이의 온도가 상승하며 이로 인해 지정된 다이 내경으로 제품이 가공되기 어려우며 소재의 선경은 지정된 직경 또는 다이 내경과 다르게 된다. 본 논문에서는 다이의 온도분포를 고려하여 소재의 탄성회복, 다이의 탄성변형, 그리고 다이와 소재의 열변형이 인발제품의 선경변화에 미치는 영향을 정량적으로 분석하였다. 네 가지 요인 중에서 소재의 탄성회복의 영향이 선경변화량의 대부분을 차지함을 확인하였다. 선경변화에 영향을 주는 인자들을 고려하여 지정된 치수와 차이를 주지 않는 초기 다이를 설계하였고, 설계된 초기 다이를 이용하여 지정된 치수의 인발제품을 얻을 수 있었다.

The friction behaviors of bulk amorphous thermal spray coating (BAC) and second phase-reinforced composite coatings using a high velocity oxy-fuel spraying process were investigated using a ball-on-disk test rig that slides against a ceramic ball in an atmospheric environment. The surface temperatures were measured using an infrared thermometer installed 50 mm from the contact surface. The crystallinities of the coating layers were determined using X-ray diffraction. The morphologies of the coating layers and worn surfaces were observed using a scanning electron microscope and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The results show that the friction behavior of the monolithic amorphous coating was sensitive to the testing conditions. Under lower than normal loads, a low and stable friction coefficient of about 0.1 was observed, whereas under a higher relative load, a high and unstable friction coefficient of greater than 0.3 was obtained with an instant temperature increase. For the composite coatings, a sudden increase in friction coefficient did not occur, i.e., the transition region did not exist and during the friction test, a gradual increase occurred only after a significant delay. The BAC morphology observations indicate that viscous plastic flow was generated with low loads, but severe surface damage (i.e., tearing) occurred at high loads. For composite coatings, a relatively smooth surface was observed on the worn surface for all applied loads.

본 연구는 computerdisk drive와 VTR head에 사용되어 지고 있는 ferrite head cores의 gap 형성에 적합한 유리의 봉착특성에 관하여 고찰하였다. 유리의 특성측정은 열팽창 계수, 미세경도, 내마모성을 측정하였으며 계면에서의 원소 농도분포는 WDS에 의해 관찰하였고 젖음성은 고온 현미경으로 측정하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. $PbO-B_2O_3$계 봉착용 유리에 있어서 PbO의 함량이 증가함에 따라 열팽창계수와 마모량이 증가하였으며 $B_2O_3$함량이 증가함에 따라서는 열팽창계수와 마모량이 감소하였다. 2. $PbO-B_2O_3$계 유리에 있어서 contact angle은 PbO함량에 주로 영향을 받는다. 3. 열팽창계수의 증가에 따라 봉착온도는 비례적으로 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 4. Mn-Zn single crystal ferrite와 $PbO-B_2O_3$계 봉착용유리의 융착 계면에서의 확산은 ferrite성분이 glass측으로 소량확산이 이루어졌으며 봉착 열처리 시간에 따라서는 거의 영향을 받지 않았다.

This study analyzes the thermal effects on the performance of an air foil thrust bearing (AFTB) using COMSOL Multiphysics to approximate actual bearing behavior under real conditions. An AFTB is a sliding-thrust bearing that uses air as a lubricant to support the axial load. The AFTB consists of top and bump foils and supports the rotating disk through the hydrodynamic pressure generated by the wedge effect from the inclined surface of the top foil and the elastic deformation of the bump foils, similar to a spring. The use of air as a lubricant has some advantages such as low friction loss and less heat generation, enabling air bearings to be widely used in high-speed rotating systems. However, even in AFTB, the effects of energy loss due to viscosity at high speeds, interface frictional heat, and thermal deformation of the foil caused by temperature increase cannot be ignored. Foil deformation derived from the thermal effect influences the minimum decay in film thickness and enhances the film pressure. For these reasons, performance analyses of isothermal AFTBs have shown few discrepancies with real bearing behavior. To account for this phenomenon, a thermal-fluid-structure analysis is conducted to describe the combined mechanics. Results show that the load capacity under the thermal effect is slightly higher than that obtained from isothermal analysis. In addition, the push and pull effects on the top foil and bump foil-free edges can be simulated. The differences between the isothermal and thermal behaviors are discussed.
