The influence of co-existing gases on the hydrogen permeation was studied through a Pd-coated $V_{53}Ti_{26}Ni_{21}$ alloy membrane. The hydrogen permeation characteristics of Pd-coated $V_{53}Ti_{26}Ni_{21}$ alloy membrane have been investigated in the pressure range 1-3 bar under pure hydrogen and hydrogen mixture gas with carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide at $450^{\circ}C$. Preliminary hydrogen permeation experiments have been confirmed that hydrogen flux was $5.36mL/min/cm^2$ for a Pd-coated $V_{53}Ti_{26}Ni_{21}$ alloy membrane (thick: 0.5 mm) using pure hydrogen as the feed gas. In addition, hydrogen fluxes were 4.46, 5.20, $3.91mL /min/cm^2$ for$V_{53}Ti_{26}Ni_{21}$ alloy membrane using $H_2/CO_2$, $H_2/CO$ and $H_2/CO_2/CO$ as the feed gas respectively. Therefore, the hydrogen permeation flux decreased with decrease of hydrogen partial pressure irrespective of temperature and pressure when $H_2/CO_2$, $H_2/CO$ and $H_2/CO_2/CO$ mixture applied as feed gas respectively and permeation fluxes were satisfied with Sievert's law in different feed conditions. It was found from XRD results after permeation test that the Pd-coated $V_{53}Ti_{26}Ni_{21}$ alloy membrane had good stability and durability for various mixtures feeding condition.

본 연구에서 우리는 casting기법을 통해 생산된 각종 귀금속 제품의 결함 및 강도 향상을 위해 다양한 조건에서 열처리를 실시하였다. casting시 일정하지 못한 온도로 냉각되어 생성된 시료내부의 결함들을 제거하기 위해 진공분위기에서 각 온도 및 시간별 조건을 달리하여 강도 및 grain의 변화를 관찰하였다. 모든 시료는 열처리 후 불안정한 grain 들이 안정화되어 경도 및 강도가 향상되는 경향을 보였으나, 특정 온도 및 시간에서는 오히려 경도가 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 열처리 후 모든 시료의 표면특성변화를 관찰하기 위해 OM (Optical microscope), SEM (scanning electron microscope)을 통해 분석하였고, Vickers경도계를 통해 경도 및 강도 변화를 관찰하였다. 또한 XRF(X-ray fluorescence) 분석을 통해 원소별 합금비를 정량적으로 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과를 통해 casting기법으로 생산된 귀금속 제품의 강도, 경도, 표면특성을 향상시킬 수 있는 최적조건을 얻을 수 있었다.

HDDR treated anisotropic Nd-Fe-B powders have been widely used, due to their excellent magnetic properties, especially for sheet motors and sunroof motors of hybrid and electric vehicles. Final microstructure and coercivity of such Nd-Fe-B powders depend on the state of starting mother alloys, so additional homogenization treatment is required for improving magnetic properties of them. In this study, a homogenization treatment was performed at $900\sim1140^{\circ}C$ in order to control the grain size and Nd-rich phase distribution, and at the same time to improve coercivity of the HDDR treated magnetic powders. FE-SEM was used for observing grain size of the HDDR treated powder and EPMA was employed to observe distribution of Nd-rich phase. Magnetic properties were analyzed with a vibrating sample magnetometer.

재료의 양단간에 온도차를 주어 전압 또는 전류가 발생하는 지벡효과와 반대로 전위차를 주어 온도차를 유도하는 펠티에 효과를 열전효과로 일컫는다. 이 열전효과에 관한 연구는 그 특수성 때문에 1950년대 이후로부터 많은 관심을 받아왔다. 최근 들어 석유자원의 고갈 및 신재생에너지에 대한 관심의 고조와 맞물리면서 열전재료 및 소자에 연구는 더욱 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 전도성이 있는 모든 물질은 열전효과를 가지는 데, 그 중 Bi-Te 합금계의 열전 물질은 상온에서 가장 우수한 열전성능지수를 가지는 것으로 보고되어, 이를 이용한 열전 재료에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔다. 현재 상용화된 열전소자는 Bi-Te bulk를 이용하여 제조되고 있으나 열전성능지수의 한계를 극복하기 위해 나노구조화, 박막화시키는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 특히 박막화를 통해 열전소자의 상용화 및 양산화에 일조할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 하지만 열전소자의 양산화를 위해서는 대량생산에 용이한 증착공정이 개발되어야 한다. 증착공정 중 가장 양산화에 유리한 공정이 MOCVD (metal organic chemical vapor deposition)라고 생각되지만 이를 위해선 전구체의 특성 평가 및 공정개발이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구팀은 MOCVD 공정을 이용하여 저온, 저압에서 Bi-Te 합금계의 박막 성장에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 또한 적외선 분광 시스템을 활용하여 여러 전구체 중 최적의 Bi, Te 전구체 조합을 선별해내었다. 이 과정 속에서 Te 전구체의 독특한 분해특성 및 증착특성을 확인하였고, 이러한 특성을 조절하기 위해 Bi 전구체가 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 확인하였다.

In this study, $Al_xTa_{1-x}$(x=0.0∼1.0) alloy thin films were grown by RF-Magnetron sputtering system, and the structural, mechanical and electrical properties of samples were examined by 4-point probe, XRD, AFM and micro-Vickers hardness profiler. The electrical resistivity was maximum and the crystal quality was optimum for the samples with Al content x=0.245 (Al 24.5 at.%). Regarding the surface hillock formation, the hillock density decreased with an increase of Al content for the low Al content range, and the hillock was eliminated for the sample with Al=24.5 at.%. The hillock density increased with the further increase of Al content. The high values of micro-Vickers hardness were obtained for the samples with x=0.2∼0.45. The results obtained demonstrate that the crystal quality, electrical resistivity, surface morphology and micro-hardness are closely inter-related, and that the optimum physical properties are obtained for the sample with x=0.245.

The dome stretching tests and tension tests have been performed to obtain a forming limit curve(FLC) for the copper alloy which is used for manufacturing the regenerative cooling thrust chamber. For experimental investigation of the forming limit curve, we have used in-plane tension specimen to obtain tension-compression strain state as well as out-of-plane specimen to obtain tension-tension strain state through dome stretching test. All specimens were divided into longitudinal and transverse directions according to the orientation of test specimen. The test results showed that in the tension-tension region, copper alloy revealed a maximum major strain of 62.3% and a maximum minor strain of 58.6%. In the tension-compression region, the maximum major strain and the maximum minor strain were measured to be 60.5% and 25.8%, respectively.

In this paper, It is performing to the elastic and elasto-plastic large deformation series analysis using a numerical method for the initial deflection effect of the aluminum alloy rectangular plate in the elasto-plastic loading area patch loading size. It is assumed a boundary condition to be a simply supported condition and consider the initial deflection amplitude, aspect ratio. It examined the critical elastic buckling load and post-buckling behaviour of aluminium alloy A6082-T6 rectangular plate. It used a commercial program for the elastic and elasto-plastic deformation series analysis. If the initial deflection amplitude is smaller, the in-plane rigidity with increasing to load is reduced from the start and occurs significantly more increasing the amplitude. More higher the aspect ratio, the initial yield strength is gradually decreased, and the plate thickness thicker and occurs larger than the thin walled plate a reduction ratio of the initial yield strength of the patch loading size as 0.5.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the level of electro-chemical corrosion and surface roughness change for the cases of Ti abutment connected to restoration made of base metal alloys. Materials and methods: It was hypothesized that Ni-Cr alloys in different compositions possess different corrosion resistances, and thus the specimens ($13{\times}13{\times}1.5\;mm$) in this study were fabricated with 3 different types of metal alloys, commonly used for metal ceramic restorations. The electrochemical characteristics were evaluated with potentiostat (Parstat 2273A) and the level of surface roughness change was observed with surface roughness tester. Paired t-test was used to compare mean average surface roughness (Ra) changes of each specimen group. Results: All specimens made of nickel-chromium based alloys, average surface roughness was increased significantly (P < .05). Among them, the Ni-Cr-Be alloy ($0.016{\pm}.007\;{\mu}m$) had the largest change of roughness followed by Ni-Cr ($0.012{\pm}.003\;{\mu}m$) and Ni-Cr-Ti ($0.012{\pm}.002\;{\mu}m$) alloy. There was no significant changes in surface roughness between each metal alloys after corrosion. Conclusion: In the case of galvanic couples of Ti in contact with all specimens made of nickel-chromium based alloys, average surface roughness was increased.
