Corrosion highly affects the lifetime and performance of machinery metallic components. The effects of shot peening on the fatigue life of Al 7075-T6 under corrosive environment are investigated in this paper. Experimental results show that the fatigue limit of shot peened specimen increases about 52%. That means the fatigue life of metallic components is highly extended by shot peening. The corrosion greatly reduces the fatigue strength depending on the corrosive condition from one week up to one year. In case of shot peened specimen, the corrosion does not reduce the fatigue strength and fatigue life up to six months. It means that the shot peening has superior effectiveness to reduce the influence of corrosion to the metallic materials.

Two kinds of welding methods were carried out for 22APU stainless steel, one is a Laser welding and the other is the TIG welding. In this case, difference of corrosion characteristics of welded zone with two welding methods mentioned above was investigated with electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, polarization curves and cyclic voltammogram etc.. Vickers hardness of all welded zone (WM:Weld Metal, HAZ:Heat Affected Zone, BM:Base Metal)in the case of Laser welding showed a relatively higher value than those of TIG welding. Futhermore their corrosion current density in all welding zone were also observed with a lower value compared to TIG welding. In particular corrosion current density of BM regardless of welding method indicated the lowest value than those of other welding zone. Intergranular corrosion was not observed at the corroded surface of all welding zone in the case of Laser welding, however it was observed at WM and HAZ with TIG welding, which is suggested that chromiun depletion due to forming of chromium carbide appears to WM and HAZ which is in the range of sensitization temperature. Therefore their zone can easily be corroded with more active anode. Consequently we can see that corrosion resistance of all welding zone of 22APU stainless steel can apparently be improved by using of Laser welding.

The quaternary alloy (Co/Ni/P/Mn) coatings were prepared using electroless plating on the polypropylene. Compositions of the quaternary alloys (Co/Ni/P/Mn) were controlled by the amount of agents. The composition by EDS, morphology with SEM, film thickness, and surface electrical resistance of the samples were measured. Higher phosphorous content samples give larger electric resistance, thus a relationship is admitted between P content and electric resistance. The corrosivity of the coatings were evaluated by electrochemical methods in the 3.5 wt% NaCl and 5.0 wt% $H_2SO_4$ solutions, respectively. It was concluded that phosphorous addition enhances resistivity in the corrosion.

해수 환경에 노출된 대부분의 금속재료는 직 간접적으로 부식의 영향을 받는다. 이와 같이 해수에 침지된 금속재료의 부식 방지에는 음극방식법이 주로 사용되고 있다. 과거의 음극방식 설계에는 양극 크기와 방식전류 밀도, 소모율 등 양극 자체에 대한 변수만이 고려되었으나, 20여 년 전부터는 해수 오염도, 수온 및 유속 등을 종합적으로 고려하여 설계하고 있다. 특히 대부분의 금속은 부식성 환경에서 생성된 부동태 피막이 해수 유동에 의해 파괴되면서 급속히 손상된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 해수 특성을 고려한 최적의 소요방식전류밀도 선정을 위해 전기화학실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과, 해수 온도 상승에 따라 확산속도가 빨라져 최적 방식 전류밀도가 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다.

The atmospheric corrosion rate were measured in Asan area for four years according to ISO 9224. The tested metals chosen as the most frequently used in industry, aluminum were copper, carbon steel, weathgering steel, and galvanized steel. The assessed corrosivity categories was 3 in average. The corrosivity categories of asan area was higher than typical rural area and even urban area, whereas it slightly lower than marine area. The results were discussed, specially as the regional climatic characteristics.

The purpose of this experiment was to check the effects on metal corrosion of the 6 types of tree (Ash tree, Japanese cedar, black walnut, western hemlock, paulownia coreana and maple) which are currently being used, or the use of which is under study, by the Museum. As a method of test, an Oddy Test was conducted where the materials to be tested and the metal test piece are exposed to a specified temperature and humidity for a long period of time and the effects of materials on the test piece are observed. The results of the Oddy Test conducted on all 6 types of tree showed slight difference in the form of metal corrosion, and except for the blank, corrosion occurred on the entire surface of most iron (Fe) and lead (Pb) test pieces. Minor level of discoloration was noted in all test pieces of copper (Cu) even though different levels.

The purpose of this study was to compare surface hardness between titanium-nitride coated crowns (TiNCs) and stainless steel crowns (SSCs), and to evaluate the corrosion resistance and color sustainability of TiNCs. Ten TiNCs and 10 SSCs were used for the hardness test. Measurement was performed 30 times for each type of crowns, and the mean values were compared. Metallic raw material plates (before being processed into crowns) of TiNCs and SSCs were prepared for the corrosion resistance test. The total amounts of metal ion releases in the test solution were detected by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry. Five TiNCs were subjected to the color sustainability test by applying repetitive brushing forces. The mean hardness values of TiNC group and SSC group were 395.53 ± 105.90 Hv and 278.70 ± 31.45 Hv respectively. Hardness of TiNCs were significantly higher than that of SSCs. The total amounts of metal ion releases from the materials of TiNCs and SSCs satisfied the criterion in International Organization for Standardization 22674. The results mean that TiNCs and SSCs were not harmful in an acidic environment. The golden coating was stable against the repetitive physical stimulations for a given period time.

Corrosion and passivation of metallic cobalt was studied by means of electrochemical experiments including potentiostatic and galvanostatic measurements and cyclic voltammograms. The mechanisms of active dissolution and passivation of cobalt at the metal/borate buffer solution interface are deduced from the Tafel slope, pH dependence of the Flade potential, and dissolution kinetic data. Hydroxyl group adsorbed on cobalt surface seems to participate in surface oxidation and formation of the passive layer. The growth kinetic data as measured by the current density suggests a mechanism in which the growth of the passive layer is determined by field-assisted transport of ions through the layer. Thickness of the passive layer was estimated by coulometry to be about 10${\AA}$ at the lowest passive potential and to grow gradually with anodic potential to about 20${\AA}$.

분리판(Bipolar plate)은 MEA 및 GDL의 구조적지지, 연료와 산화제를 공급해 주는 통로역할, 발생한 전류의 수집 및 전달, 그리고 반응 생성물의 수송 및 제거 등의 다양한 역할을 한다. PEMFC 및 DMFC의 분리판에 주로 사용되고 있는 재질은 Graphite 및 금속 물질이다. Graphite는 내부식성이 좋고 가벼워 현재 가장 많이 사용되고 있지만, 가공이 어렵고 깨질 위험이 있으며 두껍고 비교적 값이 비싸다. 금속은 가공성이 좋고 높은 전기 전도도를 가지며 가격이 저렴한 반면, 내부식성이 좋지 않은 단점이 있다. 연료전지를 실용화하는데 있어 중요한 문제 중 하나는 전지 성능의 수명과 경제성이며, 위와 같은 Graphite와 금속의 특성으로 인하여, Graphite 분리판을 금속 분리판으로 대체하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원가절감을 위한 대량생산공정 중 하나인 염욕질화공정의 도입 및 적용을 위한 목적으로, 다양한 처리조건에 의해서 금속 표면을 처리하였으며, 표면처리된 금속은 부식특성, 접촉저항, 및 내구성 등을 평가하고 이를 통하여 금속계 분리판 적용성에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

태양광은 세계적으로 유망한 에너지 중의 하나이며, 태양광 모듈은 실제 옥외 조건에 따라 다르지만 장기 신뢰성과 수명을 보장하기 위해 최소 20년 이상을 안정적으로 작동될 필요성이 있다. 하지만 실제 태양전지는 옥외에 장기 노출됨에 따라 성능이 저하되며, 그 원인으로는 셀 균열, 부식, 접착 강도 손실 및 박리, 그리고 변색 등이 있다. 본 논문에서는 부식으로 인한 성능 저하를 완화하기 위해 희생금속을 이용하여 태양전지 모듈의 성능 향상에 대해 연구하였다. 태양전지는 4 cell 결정질 실리콘 태양전지 미니 모듈을 이용하였고, 희생금속의 영향을 확인하기 위해 두 종류의 시료를 준비하였다. 한 시료에는 Al 희생금속을 태양전지 리본 위에 부착하였으며, 나머지 한 시료는 비교 시료로 Al 희생금속을 부착하지 않았다. 시료는 $85^{\circ}C$ 85%의 상대습도인 고온고습 조건에서 2500시간을 진행하였다. 그리고 2500시간의 고온고습 시험이 진행된 시료의 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. 시험 결과, 희생금속이 없을 경우 28.8%의 출력 저하가 있었으며, 희생금속이 있을 경우 19.3%의 출력 저하가 확인되었다. 또한, 희생금속이 없을 경우, 충실도는 21.5% 감소하였으며, 단락전류 역시 약 6% 정도 감소하였다. 반면, 희생금속이 있을 경우, 충실도는 16.1%로 감소하였고, 단락전류는 거의 변화가 없었다.
