Abstract

In these days, there are increasing demands for weight reduction in many industrial fields including marine industries. Therefore, magnesium thin films for lightweight materials were prepared on magnesium alloy substrate. The influence of gas pressure and substrate bias voltages on the crystal orientation and morphology of the films was determined by using X-ray diffraction and FE-SEM, respectively. And the effect of crystal orientation and morphology of the magnesium thin films on corrosion behavior was estimated by measuring electro-chemical anodic polarization curves in deaerated 3% NaCl solution. From the results, corrosion resistance of Mg thin films was improved by controlling the crystal orientation and morphology of the films with effective use of plasma ion plating technique.

현재 지구온난화 등의 환경문제로 인해 각종 산업분야에서 정량화에 대한 요구가 증대되어 해양산업에도 그 수요가 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 차세대 경량화 재료인 마그네슘이 활용되기 위해서 반드시 극복해야할 가장 중요한 특성인 내식특성에 대하여 고찰하고, 그 내식특성 향상을 위한 마그네슘 박막의 Morphology나 결정배향성의 영향을 해명하고자 하였다. 실험결과로부터 제작한 Mg 박막의 전기화학적 내식특성은 Ar 가스압이 높은 조건에서 제작한 막일수록 내식특성이 우수하였다. 이러한 경향은 표면 및 단면의 Morphology와 결정배향성과의 상관관계를 통하여 설명 가능하였다.
