Traditionally, the material used for the form in reinforced concrete construction has been wood or steel. But recently, aluminum forms have been widely used in wall structures such as apartment buildings. Aluminum is light, easy to handle, and economically advantageous, but the hydrogen gas created due to its reaction with the alkali component in concrete gives rise to air pockets on the concrete's surface, and deteriorates the surface's finishability. In this research, to determine the influence of aluminum material on concrete, the cement paste W/C and its chemical reactivity in alkali and acid solution were analyzed. As a prevention plan, the influence of the number of applications of calcium hydroxide and various surface coating materials was analyzed. Through the analysis, it was found that the surface voids on the aluminum form are the result of the reaction of hydrogen gas with an alkali such as $Ca(OH)_2$. This can be prevented by the surface treatment of $Ca(OH)_2$, separating material and coating material. However, poor surface form and damages to the form are expected to cause quality degradation because of the aluminum-concrete interaction. Therefore, thorough surface treatment, rather than the type of separating material or coating material, is considered the most important target of management.

금속 알루미늄의 낮은 환원전위는 전기화학적 산화반응을 통하여 알루미늄과 그 표면에 존재하는 산화막의 구조 및 성질의 변화를 일으킨다. 산성용액에서 알루미늄을 전기화학적으로 에칭하여 표면적을 확대시키고 중성의 용액에서 알루미늄 표면에 치밀한 유전체 산화막을 형성시켜 커패시터의 전극으로 이용하고 있다. 저온의 산성용액에서는 양극산화시 나노크기의 다공층 산화막이 형성되며, 나노구조체의 템플레이트로 사용되고 있다. 이와같은 알루미늄의 전기화학적 특성은 알루미늄을 새로운 기능성을 가진 재료로 변화시킴으로서 다양한 분야에서 응용될 것으로 기대된다.

While all-aluminum front end carriers have been frequently used by major foreign auto-makers, the carriers domestically produced are typically hybrid types. It is understood that higher fuel efficiency due to weight reduction can be achieved by using aluminum carriers because of aluminum's light weight. Moreover, aluminum is expected to posess high corrosion resistance and recyling rate. As a first step to enhance feasibility of domestic production of all-aluminum carriers, several carriers made by advanced auto makers are examined and compared. Besides basic characteristics such as appearance and weight, physical properties including composition, strength and elongation are carefully analyzed to obtain critical design and process factors.

폐알루미늄 캔으로 제조된 2차지금과 신지금의 혼합비율에 따라 캔용 소재를 주조하고 미세조직을 조사하였다. 또한 주조후 열처리에 따른 상변화의 거동을 조사하였다. 2차지금의 혼합비율(20, 30, 40, 50, 60%)에 따라 캔용 소재를 전기로로 용해하고, ceramic filter를 사용하여 주조하였다. 주조후에는 주조조직 제어를 위해 균질화 열처리($615^{\circ}C$$\times$10hrs)를 하였다. 주조상태에서는 $\alpha$ 상($Al_{12}$ $(Fe,Mn)_3$Si), $\beta$상($Al_{6}$/(Fe,Mn)), 그리고 미세한 $Mg_2$Si상이 알루미늄 기지에 존재하며, 특히 가공성에 나쁜 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려진 $\beta$상이 많이 존재하였다. 그러나 균질화 열처리에 의해 이러한 $\beta$상은 유해성이 없는 $\alpha$상으로의 상변태가 일어났다. 기지내의 미세한 $Mg_2$Si상도 열처리에 의해 $\alpha$상으로 변화하였다. 주조시 여과된 조직을 분석한 결과 Fe, Cu, Si 등의 금속간화합물이 검출되었다.

Aluminum foams sandwich panel (AFSP) has been used in engineering field, where cyclic loading is used in most of the applications. In this paper, the fatigue life of AFSP prepared by the bonding method was investigated through a three-point bending test. The mathematical statistics method was used to analyze the influence of different plate thicknesses and core densities on the bending fatigue life. The macroscopic fatigue failure modes and damage mechanisms were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results indicate that panel thickness and core layer density have a significant influence on the bending fatigue life of AFSP and their dispersion. The damage mechanism of fatigue failure to cells in aluminum foam is that the initial fatigue crack begins the cell wall, the thinnest position of the cell wall or the intersection of the cell wall and the cell ridge, where stress concentrations are more likely to occur. The fatigue failure of aluminum foam core usually starts from the semi-closed unit of the lower layer, and the fatigue crack propagates layer by layer along the direction of the maximum shear stress. The results can provide a reference for the practical engineering design and application of AFSP.

Recently, lightweight of automotive parts has been required to solve environmental problems caused by global warming. Accordingly, research and development are proceeded on manufacturing of parts using aluminum that can replace steel for lightweight of the automotive parts. In addition, high strength aluminum can be applied to body parts in order to meet both requirements of lightening and improving crash safety of vehicle. In this study, hot blow forming of roof side rail is employed to manufacturing of the automotive parts with high strength aluminum tube. In hot blow forming, longer forming times and excessive thinning can be occurred as compared with conventional manufacturing processes. So optimization of process conditions is required to prevent excessive thinning and to uniformize thickness distribution with fast forming time. Mechanical properties of high strength aluminum are obtained from tensile test at high temperature. These properties are used for finite element(FE) analysis to investigate the effect of strain rate on thinning and thickness distribution. Variation of thickness was firstly investigated from the result of FE analysis according to tube diameter, where the shapes at cross section of roof side rail are compared with allowable dimensional tolerance. Effective tube diameter is determined when fracture and wrinkle are not occurred during hot blow forming. Also FE analysis with various pressure-time profiles is performed to investigate the their effects on thinning and thickness distribution which is quantitatively verified with thinning factor. As a results, optimal process conditions can be determined for the manufacturing of roof side rail using high strength aluminum.

Porous anodic alumina has been used widely for corrosion protection of aluminum surfaces or as dielectric material in micro-electronics applications. It exhibits a homogeneous morphology of parallel pores which can easily be controlled between 10 and 400nm. It has been applied as a template for fabrication of the nanometer-scale composite. In this study, mechanical properties of the AAO structures are measured by the nano indentation method. Nano indentation technique is one of the most effective methods to measure the mechanical properties of nano-structures. Basically, hardness and elastic modulus can be obtained by the nano-indentation. Using the nano-indentation method, we investigated the mechanical properties of the AAO structure with different size of nano-holes. In results, we find the hole effect that changes the mechanical properties as size of nano hole.

Anodization is widely used to enhance the properties of aluminum, such as hardness, electric resistance, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance etc. But these properties can be enhanced with additional process. According to the partial crystallization of oxide layer with post heat treatment, enhanced hardness can be expected with partial crystallization. In this study, post heat treatments were applied to the anodized aluminum alloys of Al6061 to achieve the partial crystallization, and crystallizations were evaluated with the reduced breakdown voltages. Interestingly, remarkable enhanced hardness (21~29%), abrasion resistance (26~62%), and reduced breakdown voltage (24~44%) were observed for the sulfuric acid anodized samples when we annealed the anodized samples with 1hour post heat treatment at $360^{\circ}C$. For the Al5052 alloys, a lot of cracks were observed when we applied the post heat treatment.

It was studied that two plates of aluminum can be welded by extru-riveting experiments with extru-rivet welding dies, and that the welding strength and metal flow on the welding section were analyzed by computer simulation according to the welding variable such as the diameter of extrusion insert dies. It was known by computer simulation that welding strength on the welding section of plates could be influenced by the diameter of extrusion insert dies. And it was known by experiments that two plates of aluminum can be welded on a spot point on aluminum plate by extru-rivet welding process, and that welding strength is higher and higher if the diameter of extrusion insert die is smaller and smaller, and that welding strength is the highest when diameter of extrusion insert dies is ${\emptyset}4.2$mm in the case that the diameter of rivet is 5 mm, when aluminum 5052 two plates with 1.5 mm thickness and one plate with 3mm thickness for rivet plate are used as welding material.
