PosMAC^® is a brand of Zn-Mg-Al hot-dip coated steel sheet developed by POSCO. PosMAC^® can form dense surface oxides in corrosive environments, providing advanced corrosion resistance compared to traditional Zn coatings such as GI and GA. PosMAC^® 3.0 is available for construction and solar energy systems in severe outdoor environments. PosMAC^®1.5 has better surface quality. It is suitable for automotive and home appliances. Compared to GI and GA, PosMAC^® shows significantly less weight reduction due to corrosion, even with a lower coating thickness. Thin coating of PosMAC^® provides advanced quality and productivity in arc welding applications due to its less generation of Zn fume and spatters. In repeated friction tests, PosMAC^® showed lower surface friction coefficient than conventional coatings such as GA, GI, and lubricant film coated GA. Industrial demand for PosMAC^® steel is expected to increase in the near future due to benefits of anti-corrosion and robust application performance of PosMAC^® steel.

At present, with the development of precision instruments, high dimensional accuracy of workpieces must be ensured. In particular, for the aluminum alloys used in automobiles, the surface roughness of the workpiece is extremely important. The dimensional accuracy and surface roughness of the workpiece is considerably affected by the rotational accuracy of the rotor. Therefore, to enhance the rotational accuracy, various variables such as those related to the components such as bearings, motors, and end mills, rotational speeds, and vibrations must be considered. In this study, the difference in the quality of the workpieces was compared considering the weight imbalance and rotational speed as variables.

Arc ion plating (AIP), laser cladding, and nitriding are methods that can prevent mold damage or repair and create cracks and breakages on the die surface. The dissolution and soldering behavior of coated SKD61 by using arc ion plating, laser cladding, and nitriding was investigated. The structure of the coating was investigated as a function of deposition conditions by X-ray diffraction and the crystallographic orientation was determined using the texture factor. The TiAlN film deposited with AIP showed excellent corrosion resistance in the molten aluminum alloy at 680℃. In this paper, we have detailed the corrosion and mass loss phenomena associated with these steel-cast metal interactions.

As a trend of lightening automobiles and electronic products, several studies are currently underway to replace parts of metals with resins. In particular, heterojunctions between metals and resins are now under the spotlight. This study aims to evaluate the variation in bonding strength with process conditions when the polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) polymer is bonded to a specimen of the lightweight 6061 aluminum alloy (AL6061). Conditions of the bonding surface of the AL6061 specimen, the temperature of the injection mold, and the content of the glass fiber were considered to be process variables. Bonded specimens were manufactured for different values of these variables. Bonding strength tests were then performed on these specimens and variations were analyzed in their characteristics corresponding to those of the process conditions. Fractures in these specimens were assessed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to assess the fracture surface. This was then used to analyze the fracture shape and determine whether anodizing the specimen led to the development of cracks on the joint surface. Results of the above test indicated that while the surface condition of the specimen and the temperature of the injection mold significantly influenced the strength of bonding, the content of the glass fiber did not.

이 연구는 electric resistance element spot welding 프로세스를 도입하여 알루미늄 합금-강철의 이종 접합부의 기계적 강도 및 내식성을 향상시키기 위해 수행되었다. SPFC980Y 강철과 Al5052-H32가 각각 모재로써 적용되었고, S20C 강철은 리벳 element로써 음각과 양각의 형상으로 구분되며, Al5052-H32에 전기 저항 스폿 용접을 위해 리벳팅 되어 6.5 kA의 전류와 250 kgf/㎠의 가압력으로 접합되었다. 그 결과, 음각된 S20C element는 스폿 용접 공정 후 불안정한 너깃이 형성되는 반면, 양각된 S20C의 경우, 구조적으로 건전한 접합부로 건전한 내식성 및 탁월한 기계적 특성이 얻어졌다. FEM 시뮬레이션의 도입으로, 음각과 양각의 계면의 접합 특성이 수치적으로 밝혀졌으며, 시뮬레이션 결과는 미세조직 발달 양상을 수치적으로 뒷받침하였다. 이 연구는 element 스폿 용접된 H32-A5052 이종 접합부의 기계적 강도 및 부식 신뢰성에 대해 체계적으로 분석되었으며, 이 공정은 금속재료뿐만 아니라, 경량 비전도성 비철/비금속계 재료에도 적용 될 수 있기 때문에, 차세대 차체 경량화의 양산 기술로 확장 될 수 있다.

본 연구에서는 미소기공과 Si석출상의 파단으로 구성되는 유효기공 면적분율에 대한 인장특성의 결함민감도 관점에서 Al-Si합금의 인장특성을 공정 Si입자의 분포양상 변화에 대하여 평가하고자 하였다. Al-xSi(x=2,5,8,11)합금의 주방상태 미세조직인 망상구조의 공정 Si입자는 T4처리를 통하여 과립형태로 변형시켰으며, CT분석과 주사전자현미경 관찰을 통하여 미소기공의 분포와 크기를 평가하였다. CT분석과 주사전자현미경의 비교분석을 통하여 인장변형과정에서의 균열성장이 최대 기공율을 포함하는 국부영역에서 발생함을 확인할 수 있었다. 그럼에도 불구하고 이들 분석방법에는 미소기공 인접영역에서의 소성변형집중과 미소기공의 분포양상에 의해 파생되는 실제적인 차이를 포함하기 때문에 정확히 일치된 결과를 얻을 수 없었다. 유효기공 면적분율의 변화에 대한 인장강도와 연신율의 변화는 과립형태보다 망상구조 정출상의 분율변화에 더욱 민감한 의존도를 가진다.

The Ni-based superalloy, Inconel 740, was corroded between 800 and 1100℃ for up to 100 hr in air and Ar-0.2%SO₂ gas in order to study its corrosion behavior in air and sulfur/oxygen environment. It displayed relatively good corrosion resistance in both environment, because its corrosion was primarily dominated by not sulfidation but oxidation especially in Ar-0.2%SO₂ gas. Such was attributed to the thermodynamic stability of oxides of alloying elements when compared to corresponding sulfides. The scales consisted primarily of Cr₂O₃, together with some NiAl₂O₄, MnCr₂O₄, NiCrMnO₄, and rutile-TiO₂. Sulfur from SO₂ gas made scales prone to spallation, and thicker. It also widened the internal corrosion zone when compared to air. The corrosion resistance of IN740 was mainly indebted to the formation of protective Cr₂O₃-rich oxides, and suppression of the sulfide formation.

In hot forging analysis, the interfacial heat transfer coefficient (IHTC) is a very important factor defining the heat flow between the die and the material. In particular, in the hot forging analysis of aluminum 6xxx series alloy, which are used in automobile parts, differences in load and microstructure occur due to changes in surface temperature according to the IHTC. This IHTC is not a constant value but changes depends on pressure. This study derived the IHTC under low load using aluminum 6082 alloy. An experiment was performed by fabricating a compression die, and a heat transfer analysis was performed based on the experimental data. The heat transfer analysis used DEFORM-2D, a commercial finite element analysis program. To derive the IHTC, heat transfer analysis was performed for the IHTC in the range of 10 to 50 kW/m²℃ at intervals of 10kW/m²℃. The heat transfer analysis results according to the IHTC and the actual experimental values were compared to derive the IHTC of the aluminum 6082 alloy under low load.

알루미늄 주철은 내산화성, 내황화성 및 부식성이 우수하다. Ti, Ni 합금에 비해 비전략적 원소인 Fe를 사용하는 비용이 상대적으로 저렴하여 구조재 및 스테인리스강의 대체재로 기대되고 있다. 이는 스테인리스 스틸을 사용하는 경우에 비해 약 30%의 중량 감소 효과를 가져온다. 알루미늄 합금의 경우 최근 몇 년간 주철의 합금원소로 널리 사용되고 있는 원소이다. 실온에서 연성이 부족하고 600℃를 초과하면 강도가 급격히 감소하여 실용화가 지연되었다. 실온 연성이 약한 원인은 수소에 의한 환경 취화로 알려져 있으며, 이러한 특성의 약점을 개선하기 위해 다양한 합금원소의 첨가가 시도되고 있다. 회주철의 경도와 내마모성을 높이기 위해 주로 바나듐, 크롬, 망간 등의 합금원소를 사용하고 있지만, 이러한 원소를 포함하는 완제품의 가격과 합금화의 문제는 많은 한계가 있다.

The process optimization of directed energy deposition (DED) has become imperative in the manufacture of reliable products. However, an energy-density-based approach without a sufficient powder feed rate hinders the attainment of an appropriate processing window for DED-processed materials. Optimizing the processing of DED-processed Ti-6Al- 4V alloys using energy per unit area (E_eff) and powder deposition density (PDD_eff) as parameters helps overcome this problem in the present work. The experimental results show a lack of fusion, complete melting, and overmelting regions, which can be differentiated using energy per unit mass as a measure. Moreover, the optimized processing window (E_eff = 44~47 J/mm² and PDD_eff = 0.002~0.0025 g/mm²) is located within the complete melting region. This result shows that the Eeff and PDDeff-based processing optimization methodology is effective for estimating the properties of DED-processed materials.
