In the present study, oxidation behavior of 304 and 316 stainless steels was investigated. After solution treatment, specimens were polished up to $1{\mu}m$ $Al_2O_3$ grade and then subjected to oxidation treatment in dry air. The range of temperature was used for oxidation treatment at $300^{\circ}C{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ and TEM was used for analyzing the components and structure of oxide film. Also, these results were compared with the results of ESCA and TG. According to the results of TEM analysis, it was found that Cr oxide film was formed on top of the surface after room temperature oxidation but amorphous Fe oxide was formed on top of the surface and polycrystalline $(Cr,Fe)_2O_3$ was formed below the amorphous Fe oxide layer after $500^{\circ}C$ oxidation treatment. The oxidized specimens at $500^{\circ}C$ showed that 316 stainless steel resists more strongly to grain and grain boundary oxidation than 304 stainless steel. These results suggested that Mo component resolved in 316 stainless steel matrix suppressed the formation of Cr carbide which may results in local Cr deplete area.

It has recently been raised main issue how solve the problem of insufficient energy. One of the solution is to increase the thermal efficiency of power generation system. For the purpose of high efficiency, it is necessary to increase the steam temperature and pressure. So, the use of modified $9{\sim}12%Cr$ steel having superior creep rupture strength and oxidation resistance is required to endure such severe environment. The evaluation of creep properties of those heat resistance material is very important to secure the reliability of high temperature and pressure structural components. Since creep properties are determined by microstructural change such as carbide precipitation and coarsening, It is certain that there are some relationship between creep properties and hardness affected by microstructure. In this study, SP-Creep ruptured test for newly developed 9Cr steel being used as boiler valve material was performed, and creep properties of the material were evaluated. Also, hardness test were performed and hardness results were related to the creep properties such as LMP and creep strength to verify the availability of SP-Creep test as creep test method.

Cr-Mo-V steel is widely used as a material for the turbine structural component in fossil power plants. It is well known that this material shows the various material degradation phenomenons such as temper embrittlement, carbide coarsening. and softening etc. or ins to the severe operation conditions as high temperature and high pressure. These deteriorative factors cause tile change of mechanical properties as reduction of fracture toughness. Therefor it is necessary to evaluate tile extent of degradation damage for Cr-Mo-V steel in life assessment of turbine structural components. In this paper. the electrochemical potentiokinetic reactivation(EPR) test in $50wt%-Ca(NO_3)_2$ solution is performed to develop the newly technique for degradation damage evaluation of Cr-Mo-V steel. The results obtained from the EPR test are compared with those in small punch(SP) tests recommended by semi-nondestructive testing method using miniaturized specimen. The evaluation parameters used in EPR test are tile reactivation current density$(I_R)$ and charge$(Q_{RC})$ reactivation rate$(I_R/I_{Crit},\;Q_R/Q_{Crit})$. The results suggest that $I_R/I_{Crit}$ in these parameters shows a good correlation with SP test results.

The microstructure of a newly developed alloy tool steel (KV1) for casting cold-work press dies was analyzed using advanced scanning electron microscopy. Its mechanical properties and durability in use as piercing inserts were tested. It contained a continuous network structure which originated from the micro-segregation during solidification and was composed of retained austenite and primary carbides. However, after quenching and tempering, its continuity was destroyed due to the decomposition of austenite. The discontinuous spatial distribution and the smaller amount of primary carbide in the network presented KV1 enhanced ductility compared to the common alloy (HK700). The reduced C and Cr, the addition of V resulted in a small amount of primary carbides which primarily consisted of MC, as well as fine and uniform dispersion of precipitates. Owing to these features, KV1 exhibited delayed initiation of chipping when used for piercing inserts.

Accelerated degradation mechanism of the heat-resistant steel for high temperature plant was analysed in terms of microstructure and hardness. In order to simulate the microstructure of the steel actually used at $540^{\circ}C$ in the field, isothermal exposure was carried out at $630^{\circ}C$ up to 4,800 hours. The artificial degradation mechanism was comparatively verified to successfully simulate degradation of the long-time used field material. For the artificially degraded specimens, databases including size and aspect ratio of carbide, chemical composition (i.e., Cr/Mo ratio) of grain boundary carbide were built up. These degradation parameters were suggested as fingerprints for PHM (i.e., prognostics health management) of power plants.

There has been a considerable attention on Invar alloys due to its low thermal expansion property. A low thermal expansion property of Invar alloys, lower than $10^{-6}$ near the room temperature, is attractive for electric transmission lines and precision machine tools. However, the expansion property of Invar alloys is limited below about 520K, and mechanical properties are relatively low to apply to electric transmission line. In order to improve mechanical properties in this alloy, Ti alloying element was added to the $Ni_{38}-Mo_2-Cr_1-Fe$ invar alloy. The microstructure Ti added alloy showed finer than that of the unalloyed one. It was found that the (Mo, Ti), Mo carbide formed by Ti addition obstacled grain growth by pinning effect and supplyed recrystallization sites during heat-treatment. Optimum heat-treatment conditions with Ti addition were also discussed in the modified Invar alloy.

본 연구에서는 Inconel 713C 스크랩을 원료로 아르곤-산소 탈탄 공정을 이용하여 니켈계 초내열합금을 재활용 하였다. 아르곤-산소 탈탄 공정에서 아르곤은 1,000 sccm으로 지속적으로 주입되었고 산소는 100, 250, 500 sccm의 유량으로 10, 20, 30 분씩 주입되었다. 산소 주입 초기 단계에서는 산소 양이 증가하면서 Al, Cr, 및 Mo 함량은 증가하였고 탄소 함량은 감소하였다. 그리고 Al 함유량은 탄소의 반응이 끝난 후 Al, Cr 등의 원소와 산화가 일어났기 때문에 첨가원소와 탄소의 반응에 의해 감소하였다. 결과적으로, Al 함유량이 감소하였기 때문에 ${\gamma}^{\prime}$상이 줄어들었으며 이는 Al이 ${\gamma}^{\prime}$을 형성하는 주요 원소이기 때문이다. 또한, 탄소의 양이 줄어들면서 탄화물도 줄어들었으며 산소가 과잉 공급된 시료의 기계적인 물성(강도, 경도 등)은 감소하게 된다.

고온에서 장시간 사용으로 인하여 발생되는 경년열화 평가에는 파괴적인 방법이 신뢰성이 높지만 시험편 채취의 어려움이 있다. 그러므로 비파괴석인 방법에 의한 열화도 평가가 바람직하다. 본 연구에서는 2.23Cr-1Mo강에 대하여 장시간 등온열처리로 모의 열화시험편을 제작하여 고온설비부재에서 발생되는 탄화물의 석출 및 조대화, 분순물의 입계편석 등 금속학적 미세조직을 관찰하고, 미세조직의 변화와 유도 초음파의 전파특성과의 상관관계를 규명하고, 파괴시험치와 그 결과를 비교하여 초음파 비파괴평가에 의한 고온부재의 열화도 평가의 가능성을 실험적으로 검증하고자 한다.

에너지 변환설비와 관련된 기계구조물의 내열재료는 $350^{\circ}C{\sim}550^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 장시간 사용되는데 이때 조직의 결정입계에는 불순물 원소(P, Sn, Sb등)의 편석과 탄화물의 석출 등으로 인하여 재료의 취화 현상이 발생되고, 그로 인해 입계강도의 저하가 초래된다. 따라서 노후화된 고온설비의 안전성 및 효율적인 운전조건을 확보하고, 취성파괴 방지를 위해서는 취화손상의 정량적 평가는 매우 중요하다. 그러나 가동중인 고온설비에서 파괴시험을 위한 대량의 시험편채취가 거의 불가능한 경우가 대부분이므로 비파괴적인 시험방법이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 인공시효열처리된 2.25Cr-1Mo강의 비파괴적인 취화손상도 평가를 위해 적정 부식환경하에서 전기화학적 분극시험 방법에 의한 최적의 평가인자를 조사하였다. 또한 전기화학 시험결과들은 준비파괴시험인 SP시험에 의한 취화도 평가결과와 비교되었다.

PURPOSE. To evaluate the effects of hydrofluoric acid etching and Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation on the shear bond strength of resin cement to lithium disilicate ceramic. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Fifty-five ceramic blocks ($5mm{\times}5mm{\times}2mm$) were fabricated and embedded in acrylic resin. Their surfaces were finished with 1000-grit silicon carbide paper. The blocks were assigned to five groups: 1) 9.5% hydrofluoric-acid etching for 60 s; 2-4), 1.5-, 2.5-, and 6-W Er,Cr:YSGG laser applications for 60 seconds, respectively; and 5) no treatment (control). One specimen from each group was examined using scanning electron microscopy. Ceramic primer (Rely X ceramic primer) and adhesive (Adper Single Bond) were applied to the ceramic surfaces, followed by resin cement to bond the composite cylinders, and light curing. Bonded specimens were stored in distilled water at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. Shear bond strengths were determined by a universal testing machine at 1 mm/min crosshead speed. Data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U-tests (${\alpha}$=0.05). RESULTS. Adhesion was significantly stronger in Group 2 ($3.88{\pm}1.94$ MPa) and Group 3 ($3.65{\pm}1.87$ MPa) than in Control group ($1.95{\pm}1.06$ MPa), in which bonding values were lowest (P<.01). No significant difference was observed between Group 4 ($3.59{\pm}1.19$ MPa) and Control group. Shear bond strength was highest in Group 1 ($8.42{\pm}1.86$ MPa; P<.01). CONCLUSION. Er,Cr:YSGG laser irradiation at 1.5 and 2.5 W increased shear bond strengths between ceramic and resin cement compared with untreated ceramic surfaces. Irradiation at 6 W may not be an efficient ceramic surface treatment technique.
