The plasma processing technologies of thin film deposition and surface treatment technique have been applied to many industrial fields. This study is purposed Large-area uniformity and surface treatment on the stainless substrate. We treat surface of stainless by $CF_4$ plasma. $CF_4$ plasma is generated by using SPM(Scanning plasma method)which is kind a of CVD. Generally, SPM has been used for uniform surface treatment using a crossed electromagnetic field. The optimum discharge condition has been studied for the gas pressure, the magnetic flux density and the distance between substrate and electrodes. In result, contact angle is increased by surface treatment using $CF_4$ Plasma. Therefore we expect that SPM to control contact angle is applied to many industries.

Recently, high carbon steel has become essential not only for shipbuilding parts, but also mass production. Its surface has been treated by carburizing, nitriding and induction hardening, but these existing treatments cause considerable deformation and increase the expense of postprocessing after treatment; furthermore, these treatments cannot be easily applied to parts that requiring the hardening of only a certain section. This is because the treatment cannot heat the material homogeneously, nor can it heat all of it. Laser surface treatment was developed to overcome these disadvantages, and when the laser beam is irradiated on the surface and laser speed is appropriate, the laser focal position is rapidly heated and the thermal energy of surface penetrates the material after irradiation, finally imbuing it with a new mechanical characteristic by the process of self-quenching. This research estimates the material characteristic after efficient and functional surface treatment using HPDL, which is more efficient than the existing CW Nd:YAG laser heat source. To estimate, microstructural changes and hardness characteristics of two parts (the surface treatment part, and parental material) are observed with the change of laser beam speed and surface temperature.

In this study performed to identify a degradation mechanism in macromolecular insulating material, the contact angel, surface potential decay, surface resistivity, and XPS analysis were compared after exposure of FRP laminate to plasma discharge. In the case of contact angle, the surface of specimen untreated showed weak hydrophobic property of 73。. However, the contact angle was decreased to 20。in the plasma-treated specimen. In the case of chemical changes arising form plasma treatment, carboxl radicals were generated mainly in the surface treated, which was rapidly changed to the hydrophilic one. In the corona potential decay study to determine the electrical changes of the surface, positive charges were rapidly decreased when compared with negative charges, leading to negative property in the surface of specimen not treated. However, in the case of the hydrophilic surface, lots of carboxl radicals acting as positive polarity were generated, resulting in positive surface. Owing to such positive surface, charges of negative polarity applied were rapidly decreased.

In this paper, the effect of adhesion properties of semiconductive-insulating interface layer of silicone rubber on electrical properties was investigated. The modifications produced on the silicone surface by oxygen plasma were accessed using ATR-FTIR, contact angle and Surface Roughness Tester. Adhesion was obtained from T-peel tests of semiconductive layer haying different treatment durations. In addition, ac breakdown test was carried out for elucidating the change of electrical property with duration of plasma treatment. From the results, the treatment in the oxygen plasma produced a noticeable increase in surface energy, which can be mainly ascribed to the creation of O-H and C=O. It is observed that adhesion performance was determined by surface energy and roughness level of silicone surface. It is found that at dielectric strength was increased with improving the adhesion between the semiconductive and insulating interface.

Traditionally, the material used for the form in reinforced concrete construction has been wood or steel. But recently, aluminum forms have been widely used in wall structures such as apartment buildings. Aluminum is light, easy to handle, and economically advantageous, but the hydrogen gas created due to its reaction with the alkali component in concrete gives rise to air pockets on the concrete's surface, and deteriorates the surface's finishability. In this research, to determine the influence of aluminum material on concrete, the cement paste W/C and its chemical reactivity in alkali and acid solution were analyzed. As a prevention plan, the influence of the number of applications of calcium hydroxide and various surface coating materials was analyzed. Through the analysis, it was found that the surface voids on the aluminum form are the result of the reaction of hydrogen gas with an alkali such as $Ca(OH)_2$. This can be prevented by the surface treatment of $Ca(OH)_2$, separating material and coating material. However, poor surface form and damages to the form are expected to cause quality degradation because of the aluminum-concrete interaction. Therefore, thorough surface treatment, rather than the type of separating material or coating material, is considered the most important target of management.

In this study, we compared two methods(an acid treatment in strong acid reflux and a heat treatment in air atmosphere) for hydrophilic surface treatment of multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWNT) to enhance the capcity of $RuO_2$/MWNT composite electrode materials for ultracapacitor. Both treatments generated a number of defects on the surface of MWNT by the breakage of $\pi$ bond in graphene layer at which carboxyl groups were introduced. However, the degree of hydrophilicity generated by strong acid treatment was higher than that by heat treatment in air, which was revealed by the quantitative measurement of surface carboxyl groups by using Boehm titration. The increased hydrophilicity save rise to an improved dispersity of $RuO_2$ nanoparticles on MWNT. Finally, the improved dispersity resulted in the capacity enhancement of composite electrode materials for ultracapacitor.

Surface states of silicone polymer treated by plasma were investigated by the analysis by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and surface voltage decay. Plasma treatment causes the silica-like oxidative layer, which is confirmed with XPS, and lowers surface resistivity with increasing the plasma treatment time. Using the decay time constant of surface voltage, the calculated surface resistivity was compared with the value directly measured by a voltage-current method. A good agreement between two methods was obtained. In addition, we estimated the thermal activation energy for surface conduction, Based on our results, we could understand the relationship between surface chemical states and surface electrical properties.

Surface modification before coating nickel by coupling agents and/or etchant of glass did not provide enough adhesive strength of electroless nickel deposits on glass. Effect of heat treatments on hardness as well as adhesion of nickel deposits was studied by using tape test for adhesion, nanoindenter for hardness and glancing angle x-ray diffractometer (GAXRD) for phase characterization. Heat treatment improved hardness as well as adhesion. XRD results give that the improvements of adhesion and hardness are due to the formation of $NiSiO_4$ around the interface between the nickel deposits and the glass and the precipitation of $Ni_3P$ causing precipitation hardening, respectively. The details in effects of heat treatment on adhesion and hardness are described here.

The physicochemical properties of stainless steel fibers which were modified by oxygen plasma treatment were analyzed through microscopy and XPS analysis. The wettability of the surface of the stainless steel fiber was observed by measuring water contact angle to find out the effect of the plasma treatment time on the surface characteristics of the stainless steel fiber. In addition, in order to understand the effect of oxygen plasma treatment on the deterioration of the stainless steel fiber properties, the physical properties due to plasma treatment was investigated by measuring the weight reduction, tensile strength, elongation, tensile modulus of the stainless steel fibers according to the treatment time. As a result, the stainless steel fiber surface was etched by the oxygen plasma and the surface became more wettable by the introduction of hydrophilic functional groups. However the physical properties of the stainless steel fiber were not significantly deteriorated even if the surface of the stainless steel fiber made hydrophilic.
