Highly corrosion resistance performance of CrAlSiN coatings were obtained by applying ultrathin $Al_2O_3$ thin films using atomic layer deposition (ALD) method. CrAlSiN coatings were prepared on Cr adhesion layer/SUS304 substrates by a hybrid coating system of arc ion plating and high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) method. And, ultrathin $Al_2O_3$ passivation layer was deposited on the CrAlSiN/Cr adhesion layer/SUS304 sample to protect CrAlSiN coatings by encapsulating the whole surface defects of coating using ALD. Here, the high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) analysis revealed that the ALD $Al_2O_3$ thin films uniformly covered the inner and outer surface of CrAlSiN coatings. Also, the potentiodynamic and potentiostatic polarization test revealed that the corrosion protection properties of CrAlSiN coatings/Cr/SUS304 sample was greatly improved by ALD encapsulation with 50 nm-thick $Al_2O_3$ thin films, which implies that ALD-$Al_2O_3$ passivation layer can be used as an effect barrier layer of corrosion.

The structure and properties such as adhesion and corrosion resistance of Cr and $Cr_2O_3$ films, deposited on steel plates by the vacuum evaporation method, were investigated. According to the ESCA and AES analy-sis, it could be concluded that chromium oxide with uniform composition could be formed on the steel sub-strate. The deposited Cr and $Cr_2O_3$ films had high adhesion strength, and they did not peeled off by the tape test. The adhesion property, however, was deteriorated as the film thciknes increased. After bending of the deposited specimen many cracks were observed by SEM, and they were assumed to have propagated along co-lumnar boundaries by the bending test. The corrosion resistance of the films was not generally good, which in-dicates that the films had a porous structure with a large number of defects such as pin holes and voids.

The $LaCrO_3$-dispersed Cr alloys for metallic interconnect of solid oxide fuel cell were prepared as a function of $LaCrO_3$ content in the range of 5 to 25 vol.% and were sintered at 1500$^{\circ}C$ under an Ar atmosphere with 5 vol.% $H_2$. The sintering and oxidation behaviors of these alloys were examined. The alloys indicated a good sinterability above 95% relative density at a given sintering condition, and their sintering densities is independent on $LaCrO_3$ content. The $LaCrO_3$ particles of the sintered alloys were concentrated on interfaces of Cr particles, and the size of the Cr particles increased with decreasing $LaCrO_3$ content, which is caused by inhibited grain growth of Cr particle by $LaCrO_3$ particle. The oxidation test showed all $LaCrO_3$-dispersed Cr alloys have good oxidation resistance as compared with pure Cr, which is attributed to presence of $LaCrO_3$ at the interface at which the oxidation reaction occurs rapidly. The Cr alloys with about 15 vol.% $LaCrO_3$ are very resistant to oxidation.

Mullite ($3Al_2O_3{\cdot}2SiO_2$) has emerged as a promising candidate for high-temperature structural materials due to its erosion resistance, chemical and thermal stabilities, relatively low thermal expansion coefficient, excellent thermal shock and creep resistances, and low dielectric constant. However, since the pure mullite sintering temperature is as high as $1,600{\sim}1,700^{\circ}C$, there is an increasing need for a sintering additive capable of improving the strength characteristics while lowering the sintering temperature. Herein we have tried to obtain the optimal sintering additive composition by adding MgO, $Cr_2O_3$, and $Y_2O_3$ to mullite, followed by sintering at $1,325{\sim}1,550^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. With additives of 2 wt% of MgO, 2 wt% of $Cr_2O_3$, 4 wt% of $Y_2O_3$, A density of $3.23g/cm^3$ was obtained for the sintered body at $1,350^{\circ}C$ upon using 2 wt% MgO, 2 wt% $Cr_2O_3$, and 4 wt% $Y_2O_3$ as additives. The three-point flexural strength of that was 275 MPa and the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) was $4.15ppm/^{\circ}C$.

The $Cr_2AlC$ carbides oxidized at 700, 850 and $1000^{\circ}C$ in air from 70 hours up to 360 days. They oxidized according to the reaction; $Cr_2AlC+O_2{\rightarrow}{\alpha}-Al_2O_3+CO(g)$. The scales consisted primarily of the thin, essentially pure $Al_2O_3$ layer and the underlying Al-dissolved $Cr_7C_3$ layer. They grew via the outward diffusion of Al and carbon, and the inward diffusion of oxygen. The oxidation resistance of $Cr_2AlC$ was excellent due to the formation of the protective $Al_2O_3$ layer. Even when $Cr_2AlC$ oxidized at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 360 days, the ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ layer was only about 4 ${\mu}m$-thick.

The properties of black ceramic pigments including thermal and glaze stability were systematically investigated so that these pigments could be used to decorate porcelain products. Various compositions of $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ and $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ powders were synthesised using a solid state reaction method. The obtained $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ and $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ powders showed single phases of spinel structure after calcination processes at $1000^{\circ}C$ and $1200^{\circ}C$, respectively. CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ colourimetric parameters of glazed $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ and $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ pigments were analyzed according to the different amounts of Cr substitution. In addition, the amount of $Cr^{+6}$ remaining in the $Co(Fe,Cr)_2O_4$ and $(Ni,Mn)(Fe,Cr,Mn)_2O_4$ pigments was also measured.

In this study, we investigated the effects of Cr dopant on the bulk trap level and grain boundary characteristics of $Bi_2O_3$-based ZnO (ZB) using dielectric functions such as $Z^*$, $Y^*$, $M^*$, ${\varepsilon}^*$, and $tan{\delta}$. More than two bulk traps of $Zn_i$ and $V_o$ probably in different ionization states could be identified in ZBCr($ZnO-Bi_2O_3-Cr_2O_3$). The grain boundaries of ZBCr could be electrochemically divided into two types: sensitive to ambient oxygen and thus electrically active one and oxygen-insensitive and thus electrically inactive one.

Oxide powders of $Cr_2O_3 \;and\;Cr_2O_3+3{\%}TiO_2$ were prepared by spray drying, plasma densification and fused+crushed processes. The oxide coating layers were made by plasma spray and characterized by microstructure, hardness, adhesion strength and relative density. The optimum spray distance for the high quality coatings by spraying dried powders was found to be 9cm. A small amount addition of $TiO_2\;in\;Cr_2O_3$ powder significantly improved coating characteristics by lowering the melting point of powders. The hardness and relative density of coating layers of the plasma densified powders were comparable to fused and crushed powders, however, the adhesion strength was much higher in the former case.

Detection of $CO_2$ gas in both indoor and outdoor atmospheres is now becoming an important issue because of greenhouse effect and climate crisis. In this study, gas sensors based on $SnO_2-Cr_2O_3$ composite nanofibers were fabricated by the electrospinning method to detect $CO_2$ gas. The gas sensors showed a response to ppm level of $CO_2$ gas from room temperature to $200^{\circ}C$ while the highest response was observed at $150^{\circ}C$. The gas response is enhanced by the catalytic property of $Cr_2O_3$. Selective $CO_2$ detection is obtained through the chemical reaction of $Cr_2O_3$ to chromium carbonate. All the results suggest the $SnO_2-Cr_2O_3$ composite material is promising for the use of $CO_2$ gas sensors.

The high velocity oxy-fuel sprayed coatings of 38Ni-23Co-20Cr-11Al-3Y-5Ta, 25Ni-34Co-20Cr-11Al-3Y-2Re and 32Ni-34.5Co-22Cr-11Al-0.5Ir (in wt%) were oxidized at 1000 and $1100^{\circ}C$ in air in order to find the alloying effect of Ta, Re and Ir on the oxidation properties of the NiCoCrAlY-base coatings. The primary phase of the coatings was $Ni_3Al$. The oxides formed on the coatings consisted primarily of ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$, together with some $CoCr_2O_4,\;CoAl_2O_4$, and $Al_5Y_3O_{12}$. Tantalum oxidized to $Ta_2O_5$ and $Ta_2O_{22}$. However, no oxides of Re and Ir were detected by XRD owing to their thermodynamic inertness and/or their small amount.
