The purpose of this study was performed to compare to the characteristics (microstructure, phase change and hardness, erosion rate) of HVOF sprayed coatings with 20wt% NiCr claded and 7wt%NiCr mixed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ powder. In the case of the 20wt% NiCr claded $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ powder, microstructural feature showed that the primary $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ was remained in the coating but was barely remained in the mixed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ coating. As a results of XRD analysis, both 20wt%NiCr claded and 7wt% NiCr mixed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ powder was decomposed during spraying but the degree of decomposition of the 20wt%NiCr claded was lower than 7wt%NiCr mixed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ powder. After spraying the mixed powder for microhardness was higher than claded $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ powder and which was increased up to $\textrm{Hv}_{300}$= 1665 after heat treatment to $1000^{\circ}C$. however. 20wt%NiCr claded $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ became to decrease at $600^{\circ}C$ which was the maximum.

The precipitation behaviors of ${\gamma}"(Ni_3Nb)$ in four Ni-base alloys were investigated. The four alloys were forged Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb alloy, mechanically alloyed Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb alloy, IN 718 alloy and ECAPed(equal channel angular pressing) IN 718 alloy. Aging treatment was employed at either $600^{\circ}C$ or $720^{\circ}C$ for 20 hrs. The TEM observation and hardness test were performed to identify the formation of ${\gamma}"$. The precipitation of ${\gamma}"$ was noticed after aging at $600^{\circ}C$ for 20 hrs in the mechanically alloyed Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb alloy and ECAPed IN 718 alloy, while it was observed after aging at $720^{\circ}C$ for 20 hrs in the forged Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb alloy and IN 718 alloy before ECAP. The lower aging temperature for ${\gamma}"$ precipitation in the mechanically alloyed Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb alloy and ECAPed IN 718 alloy than in the forged Ni20Cr20Fe5Nb alloy and IN 718 alloy before ECAP appeared to be due to the severe plastic deformation which occurred during mechanical alloying or ECAP.

Model alloys Fe-9Cr, Fe-20Cr and Fe-20Cr-20Ni (wt. %) with 0.1 and 0.2 % Si were exposed to $Ar-20CO_2-20H_2O$ gas at $818^{\circ}C$. The undoped alloys formed a thick iron-rich oxide scale. The additions of Si reduced scaling rates of Fe-9Cr to some extent but significantly suppressed the formation of iron oxide scales on Fe-20Cr and Fe-20Cr-20Ni. Carburisation also occurred in all undoped alloys, but not in Si-containing Fe-20Cr and Fe-20Cr-20Ni. Protection against carburisation was a result of the formation of an inner scale layer of silica.

The germination and growth of radish and chiness cabbage in soils treated with Cr, Ni, Cd, Cu, and Zn at 20, 50, 100 and 200 ppm were determined. The germination of radish and chiness cabbage in soils was greatly affected by addition of Ni and Cr at 200 ppm, but almost not at all by treatment with Cd, Cu, and Zn even 200 ppm. The injury to the growth of crops was generally the highest with Cr, followed by Ni, Cd, Cu, and Zn, and more with chiness cabbage with radish. Serious crop injury appeared at 20 ppm of Cr, 50 ppm of Ni, Cd and Cu, and 200 ppm of Zn on radish, and at 20 ppm of Cr, Ni, Cd and Cu, and 200ppm of Zn of chiness cabbage. However, crop inhibition decreased greatly with addition of compost and lime.

This study was performed to investigate the influence of fuel/oxygen ratio (F/O= 3.2, 3.0, 2.8) on the oxidation behavior of two kinds of (20wt%NiCr claded $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$, and 7wt%NiCr mixed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$) composite powder with different manufacturing method. The results show that the oxidation behavior between the 20wt% NiCr claded $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ and 7wt% NiCr mixed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ coating was widely different. The surface morphology of the coating composed of 7wt% NiCr mixed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ was changed to porous with F/O ratio by the aggressive evolution of gas phases($\textrm{CO}_2$, CO and $\textrm{CrO}_3$) and the oxide cluster composed of Ni and Cr were grown after oxidation at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 50 hours. But the surface morphology of the coating composed of 20wt% NiCr claded $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ was not changed to porous after oxidation at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 50 hours. Therefore, the reason for high oxidation rate is due to activation of $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ to oxidation by entrapped oxygen gases within coating layer, and to closely relate with the decomposition of $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ to $\textrm{Cr}_{7}\textrm{C}_{3}$ phase. Accordingly, On the evidence of these results, the study about the oxidation behavoir of the HVOF sprayed $\textrm{Cr}_{3}\textrm{C}_{2}$ coating depending on hydrogen flow rate must be done.

In order to acquire fundamental informations to fabricate high precision thin film resistors, NiCr/NiCrSi alloy films were prepared using Ni and Cr targets. Effect of composition on the electrical properties of the NiCr/NiCrSi alloy film were then investigated. Considering the effect of Si doping on the electrical and material characteristics, the lower TCR (temperature coefficient of resistance) values could be achieved for samples with Ni/Cr ratio of $0.8{\sim}1.5$ (in a range of relative higher specific resistivity and Cr composition of $40\;wt%{\sim}55\;wt%$) and with Si doping. Consequently, the sample prepared using a DC power showed a good TCR of $-25\;ppm/^{\circ}C$, which implies that increase of specific resistivity and decrease of TCR would be achieved more efficiently not for Ni-Cr binary material but for Si doped Ni-Cr ternary material, and not using RF power but using DC power in the sputtering process.

휴대전화, 랩톱 컴퓨터 등 각종 모바일기기 및 디스플레이 기기의 경박단소화 및 고기능화에 따라 연성회로기판(FPCB)의 사용량이 증가하고있다. 연성회로기판의 핵심소재인 동박적층필름(FCCL)은 폴리이미드필름과 접착층, Cu 층으로 구성되는데, 이 중접착층으로 사용되는 Ni-20Cr합금은 에칭공정 후 Cr의 잔류에 의해 불량률 증가가 문제되고 있어, Ni-Cr합금 스퍼터링 타깃의 Cr 함량 저감 또는 Cr-free Ni합금 개발 등이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 차세대 FCCL 본드층에 적합한 Ni기 합금을 개발하기 위한 기초연구로써 Cr 함량 및 가공열처리조건에 따른 미세조직과 집합조직 변화를 조사하였다. 4N급의 고순도Ni과 Cr을 진공 플라즈마 용해장치로 용해하여Ni-xCr (x=5, 10, 15, 20wt.%)합금 잉곳을 만들고, 이를 두께감소율 90%로 냉간압연한 후, $600^{\circ}C$ 및 $800^{\circ}C$에서 10~120분 동안 어닐링하여 시편을 준비하였다. 광학현미경으로 미세조직을 관찰하고, Micro-Vickers 경도시험을 통해 어닐링 조건에 따른 경도변화를 조사하였다. 또한 SEM-EBSD를 이용하여 집합조직 및 입계특성을 분석하였다. $600^{\circ}C$ 어닐링 시 Cr함량이 증가할수록 재결정 완료시간이 증가하여 Ni-20Cr합금의 경우 2시간이상 어닐링에도 재결정이 일어나지 않았다. $800^{\circ}C$ 어닐링 시 10분 어닐링 조건에서 4종류 합금 모두 재결정이 완료되었으며, 동일한 어닐링 조건에서 Cr함량이 증가할수록 결정립이 작아지는 것으로 나타났다. $800^{\circ}C$ 2시간 어닐링 조건에서 Ni-5Cr 합금의 주요 집합조직은 {223}<113>과 {122}<112>로 나타났으며, 이중 {223}<113>은Cr 함량이 증가함에 따라 점차 {122}<112>에 가까운 방향으로 변화되어 Ni-20Cr 합금의 경우 {123}<112>만이 형성되었다. 이러한 집합조직의 변화는 적층결함에너지 감소에 의한 ${\Sigma}3$ 입계의 분율 증가와 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 사료된다.

The magnetostriction and stress of multilayer $NiFeCr/(Cu/Co_{90}Fe_{10}){\times}N/NiFeCr$ films were investigated. As the number of Cu $15{\AA}$/CoFe $15{\AA}$ bilayers was increased, the saturation magnetostriction decreased from $-5.6\times10^{-6}$ at 2 bilayers to $-8.5\times10^{-6}$ at 20 bilayers. A change of CoFe thickness from 10 to $20{\AA}$ caused a decrease in the magnitude of tensile stress from 980MPa to 590MPa as the number of Cu $15{\AA}$/CoFe $15{\AA}$ bilayers increased from 2 to 20. The maximum magnetostrictive anisotropy field that could be developed due to nonzero magnetostriction and stress is calculated to be 135.7 Oe when the number of Cu $15{\AA}$/CoFe $15{\AA}$ bilayers is 10.

This study investigates the microstructure and wear properties of cermet (ceramic + metal) coating materials manufactured using high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) process. Three types of HVOF coating layers are formed by depositing WC-12Co, WC-20Cr-7Ni, and Cr3C2-20NiCr (wt.%) powders on S45C steel substrate. The porosities of the coating layers are $1{\pm}0.5%$ for all three specimens. Microstructural analysis confirms the formation of second carbide phases of $W_2C$, $Co_6W_6C$, and $Cr_7C_3$ owing to decarburizing of WC phases on WC-based coating layers. In the case of WC-12Co coating, which has a high ratio of $W_2C$ phase with high brittleness, the interface property between the carbide and the metal binder slightly decreases. In the $Cr_3C_2-20CrNi$ coating layer, decarburizing almost does not occur, but fine cavities exist between the splats. The wear loss occurs in the descending order of $Cr_3C_2-20NiCr$, WC-12Co, and WC-20Cr-7Ni, where WC-20Cr-7Ni achieves the highest wear resistance property. It can be inferred that the ratio of the carbide and the binding properties between carbide-binder and binder-binder in a cermet coating material manufactured with HVOF as the primary factors determine the wear properties of the cermet coating material.

Correlations between in-flight particle, splat and coating microstructure of thermally sprayed Ni20Cr were investigated. Flame spray and arc spray systems were employed for spraying Ni20Cr powder and Ni20Cr wire, respectively. The results showed that the arc spray process produced a broader size distribution for both in-flight particles and splats compared to flame process. Flower-like splat morphology was obtained from the arc spray whereas a pancake-like splat was obtained by flame spray. Ni20Cr coating sprayed by arc process had a denser microstructure, lower porosity and better adhesion at the interface.
