Effects of the disproportionating hydrogen pressure and alloy composition on the texture in the HDDR-treated Nd-Fe-B particles were examined using the $Nd_{12.6}Fe_{81.4}B_6$ and $Nd_{12.6}Fe_{68.7}B_6Co_{11.0}Ga_{1.0}Zr_{0.l}$ alloys. Disproportionation kinetics of the $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ phase in the Nd-Fe-B alloy was retarded significantly by the addition of Co, Ga and Zr. The retarded disproportionation kinetics of the $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ phase ensured a wider processing win­dow in terms of disproportionating hydrogen pressure for achieving a texture in the HDDR-treated Nd-Fe-B alloy particles.

Rapidly solidified Mg-Al-Si base alloys containing Ca were obtained by melt spinning. The melt-spun ribbons were aged isochronally or isothermally to investigate age hardening phenomena and microstructural change according to the alloy composition. Age hardening occurred after aging at $200^{\circ}C$ for 1h mainly due to the precipitation of $Al_2Ca$ and $Mg_2Ca$, which have coherent interfaces with the matrix. With the increase of Ca content, the hardness values of the alloy ribbons were increased. Among the alloys, Mg-10Al-2 Si-3Ca alloy showed a good thermal stability at elevated temperature.

The examination for the changes of structures and mechanical properties in directionally solidified Al-Fe-Ni alloys containing the small amount of Fe and Ni was carried out by the varying the composition and solidification rate R of alloy, provided that the temperature gradient was 80 .deg.C/cm. The result were obtained as follows. A) In proportion to the increase of the solidification rate (R), the crystallized phase of this alloy was changed from the Ribbon-type structure to the Rod-type structure. B) The strength was rapidly increased in the changing process of composite shape from the Ribbon-type to the Rod-type with the solidification rate (R) increasing. C) The fiber stress (${\sigma}^f$) and Young's modulus ($E_f$) calculated for the Rod-type structure were 220 kg/$mm^2$ and 11, 800 kg/$mm^2$ respectively, which were in good accord with the rule of Mixtures.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of three main chemical compositions(Mg, Zn, Si) on extrudability of 7xxx Al alloy with high tensile strength. A few Al alloys based on 7xxx alloys were metal mold cast with various weight*%) of Mg 0.3-1.2%, Zn 5.0-8.0% and Si 0.4-0.7%, to envestigate the effects of extrudability, as well as mechanical properties. To measure the extrudability of cast billets, maximum extrusion pressure and surface temperature at die exit before tearing occurs were obtained by experiment and simulation of thermo-viscoplastic F.E.M. Also the yield and tensile strength of extruded products were tested.

The structure and composition of anodic films, formed on 6063 commercial aluminium alloy at constant current density of $1.5A/^dm2$ with various superimposed cathodic current ratio, in the range 0~33%, in the 11% $H_2SO_4$ with various concentration of $CuSO_4{\cdot}5H_2O$, in the range 0~75 g/l, without cathodic current are generally porous-type and no sign of Cu co-deposition appearance, suggesting that cathodic current is an important factor in the Cu co-deposition. Comparison with the anodic film thickness measurement results obtained from anodic film formed by direct anodic current and anodic film formed by superimposed various portion of cathodic current, the portion of cathodic current of input current increases with decrease of anodic film thickness and increases with increase of concentration of $Cu_2S{\;}and{\;}Cu_2O$ in the anodic film.

Here, we report on nanocrystalline Si-Al-M (M = Fe, Cu, Ni, Zr) alloys for use as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, which were fabricated via a melt-spinning method. Based on the XRD and TEM analyses, it was found that the Si-Al-M alloys consist of nanocrystalline Si grains surrounded by an amorphous matrix phase. Among the Si-Al-M alloys with different metal composition, Ni-incorporated Si-Al-M alloy electrode retained the high discharge capacity of 2492 mAh/g and exhibited improved cyclability. The superior $Li^+$ storage performance of Si-Al-M alloy with Ni component is mainly responsible for the incorporated Ni, which induces the formation of ductile and conductive inactive matrix with crystalline Al phase, in addition to the grain size reduction of active Si phase.

In order to clarify the solidification mechanism of Al-Si alloy, Mushy Degree of Eutectic Solidification (MDE) and Centerline Feeding Resistance (CFR) were systematically studied by casting with various compositions of $Al-(6{\sim}18%)$ Si alloys into several kinds of molds having different cooling rates. The results are as follows: 1. CFR% increases slightly as solute concentration increases, but decreases remarkably as the cooling rate of the mold increases, that is, the composition dependence of the alloys has more effect on the change of CFR% than that of the mold cooling rate. 2. The composition dependence of MDE value has the same tendency as that of Degree of Eutectic Solidification (DES). MDE value within the range of hypereutectic composition is larger than that of hypoeutectic and it represents the maximum value at eutectic composition. The higher the cooling rate is, the less the MDE value is.

Cu-Fe alloys (CFAs) are much anticipated for use in electrical contacts, magnetic recorders, and sensors. The low cost of Fe has inspired the investigation of these alloys as possible replacements for high-cost Cu-Nb and Cu-Ag alloys. Here, alloys of Cu and Fe having compositions of $Cu_{100-x}Fe_x$ (x = 10, 30, and 50 wt.%) are prepared by gas atomization and characterized microstructurally and structurally based on composition and powder size with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Grain sizes and Fe-rich particle sizes are measured and relationships among composition, powder size, and grain size are established. Same-sized powders of different compositions yield different microstructures, as do differently sized powders of equal composition. No atomic-level alloying is observed in the CFAs under the experimental conditions.

For the purpose of improving the hot corrosion resistance of Ni-base superalloy, Inconel 600, aluminide and chromium-aluminide coatings by pack cementation process were studied. The morphology of these coatings is dependent on the type of process employed. And their overall composition depends on the composition of the base alloy and on the nature of the cement. Therefore the different aluminide and chromium-aluminide coatings obtained on a superalloy do not possess the same resistance to oxidation and hot corrosion. The mechanisms governing the formation of the coatings and the composition of the coating were varied by pack composition and temperature, and cyclic hot corrosion resistance of the auluminide coating formed by one-step process was inferior to that of the coating formed by two-step process. and Cr-Al composite coating showed good resistance for cyclic hot corrosion.

The lifetime and corrosion resistance of the coating depends on its thickness and composition. We checked how the plating progressed according to the shape of the product to be plated. There was no significant difference in the composition or thickness of the plating according to the shape of the separately plated products. Samples of different shapes collected from products with complex shapes showed no significant difference in composition depending on the shape, but significant differences in thickness. This difference is due to the difference in applied current density depending on the shape of the product.
