Ni-Cr-Sn-Bi alloys were prepared by air melting and sand casting method and their anti-galling behaviors were examined. Anti-galling properties were dominantly influenced by Bi-rich low temperature precipitates. Alloying effects on the anti-galling properties were investigated for several alloying elements to improve anti-galling properties of the alloy. An alloy with $1-3wt\%$ of Te showed markedly improved anti-galling properties. Metallographic and tribological tests were carried out to find out reasons for excellent properties. It was found that Te containing alloy has finely distributed precipitates of Bi-rich phase. The addition of Te changed the morphology of the Ni-rich primary phase from globular to fine dendritic. As a result, the anti-galling phase precipitated between dendrite arms with fine distribution showed excellent anti-galling properties.

The effects of Bi and Te on the anti-galling behaviors of Ni base alloy were investigated by SEM, galling test and wear test. Anti-galling characteristics depended on the structure of matrix and distribution of Bi-rich phase which was precipitated at grain boundary. The addition of 5 wt% Bi markably enhanced anti-galling properties. The addition of Te caused Bi-rich precipitates to disperse finely and casting structure to form equiaxed type. From the above tests, the concentration of 5 wt% Bi and 1 wt% Te was selected to optimize in this alloy.

The important drawback of hardware fasteners consisted of 304 stainless steel (STS) is a frequent galling caused by a combination of friction and adhesion between the sliding surface. To improve the anti-galling effect, Sn-Al coatings by a thermal diffusion have been developed. The thermal diffusion by pack cementation with an $AlCl_3$ activator at $250^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour produced an Sn-Al alloy coating layer with an average thickness of $9.9{\pm}0.5{\mu}m$ on the surface of 304 STS fasteners. Compared with the galling frequency of the 304 STS fasteners, Sn-Al coatings on the surface of 304 STS fasteners demonstrated about 2.8-time reduction of the galling frequency.

볼트, 너트 등의 파스너는 건축 재료나 기계부품을 고정하는 데 사용하는 기계요소로, 건축, 철도, 조선 등 전 산업분야에 걸쳐 사용되고 있다. 그 중 스테인리스 소재의 볼트, 너트는 뛰어난 내식성과 저렴한 가격으로 널리 사용되고 있는데, 소재의 특성 및 작업현장의 상황, 온도의 변화 등의 원인에 의해 고착현상(galling)이 발생한다. 고착현상이란 성분 혹은 표면경도가 비슷한 금속의 나사산을 조이는 과정에서 발생하는 압력의 증가 및 마찰력에 의해 냉간 용접(cold welding)이 일어나는 것으로 나사산의 표면이 눌어붙게 된다. 이러한 고착현상은 스테인리스 소재에서 많이 발생하는데, 한번 발생한 후에는 비파괴 해소가 불가능한 상태가 되어 경제적 손실을 야기한다. 이러한 고착현상의 해소를 위해 본 연구에서는 주석과 알루미늄을 사용한 새로운 열 확산 코팅 기술을 개발하고 이를 304 스테인리스강에 적용하여 열처리 온도에 따른 특성변화를 확인하였다. 열 확산 코팅을 위해 팩 세멘테이션 방법을 이용하여 아르곤 분위기 하에서 열처리 하였고, 온도는 $200{\sim}250^{\circ}C$에서 코팅을 수행하였다. 이에 따른 코팅 전과 후의 표면 및 단면 분석을 통해 성공적으로 코팅층이 형성됨을 확인하였고, 온도가 증가함에 따라 코팅성분의 양이 증가하는 현상을 보임을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 고착방지성능을 확인하기 위하여 ASTM G196-08 시험을 통해 코팅조건에 따른 고착현상을 분석하였으며, 그 결과 기존에 코팅되지 않은 304 스테인리스강보다 고착현상이 개선됨을 확인하였다. 따라서 304 스테인리스강 소재의 볼트, 너트 제품에 주석-알루미늄 코팅층을 적용시키면 기존의 고착현상을 개선하고 서비스 품질을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Recently, the request for the high strength of material is more and more increased in the area of industrial environment and machinery. To accomplish the high strength of materials, carbonizing treatment, nitrifying treatment, shot-peening method are representatively applied, however, shot-peening method is generally used among the surface processes. Shot peening is a cold working process used to impact Compressive residual stressed in the exposed surface layers. Benefits due to shot peening are increase in resistance to fatigue, stress corrosion cracking, fretting, galling, erosion and closing of pores. In this study, the influence of shot peening on the corrosion was investigated on spring steel immersed in 3.5% NaCl. The immersion test as performed on the two kinds of specimens. Corrsion potential, polarization curve, residual stress and etc, were investigated from experiment results. From test result the effect of shot peening on the corrosion was evaluated. The important results of the experimental study on the effects of shot peened on the environment corrosion of spring steels are as follows; In case of corrosion potential, shot peened specimen shows more activated negative direction as compared with parent mental. Surface of specimen, which is treated with the shot peened is placed as more activated state against inner base metal. It can cause t도 anti-corrosion effect on the base metal.

Titanium and its alloys offer attractive properties in a variety of applications. These are widely used for the field of biomedical implants because of its good biocompatibility and high corrosion resistance. Titanium anodizing is often used in the metal finishing of products, especially those can be used in the medical devices with dense oxide surface. Based on SAE/AMS (Society of Automotive Engineers/Aerospace Material Specification) 2488D, it has the specification for industrial titanium anodizing that have three different types of titanium anodization as following: Type I is used as a coating for elevated temperature forming; Type II is used as an anti-galling coating without additional lubrication or as a pre-treatment for improving adherence of film lubricants; Type III is used as a treatment to produce a spectrum of surface colours on titanium. In this study, we have focused on Type II anodization for the medical (dental and orthopedic) application, the anodized surface was modified with gray color under alkaline electrolyte. The surface characteristics were analyzed with Focused Ion Beam (FIB), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), surface roughness, Vickers hardness, three point bending test, biocompatibility, and corrosion (potentiodynamic) test. The Ti-6Al-4V alloy was used for specimen, the anodizing procedure was conducted in alkaline solution (NaOH based, pH>13). Applied voltage was range between 20 V to 40 V until the ampere to be zero. As results, the surface characteristics of anodic oxide layer were analyzed with SEM, the dissecting layer was fabricated with FIB method prior to analyze surface. The surface roughness was measured by arithmetic mean deviation of the roughness profile (Ra). The Vickers hardness was obtained with Vickers hardness tester, indentation was repeated for 5 times on each sample, and the three point bending property was verified by yield load values. In order to determine the corrosion resistance for the corrosion rate, the potentiodynamic test was performed for each specimen. The biological safety assessment was analyzed by cytotoxic and pyrogen test. Through FIB feature of anodic surfaces, the thickness of oxide layer was 1.1 um. The surface roughness, Vickers hardness, bending yield, and corrosion resistance of the anodized specimen were shown higher value than those of non-treated specimen. Also we could verify that there was no significant issues from cytotoxicity and pyrogen test.
