A $Li[Ni_{0.3}Co_{0.4}Mn_{0.3}]O_2$ cathode was modified by coating with Li-La-Ti-O, and the effect of the coating thickness on their electrochemical properties was studied. The thickness of the coating on the surface of $Li[Ni_{0.3}Co_{0.4}Mn_{0.3}]O_2$ was increased by increasing the wt % of the coating material. The rate capability of the Li-La-Ti-O-coated electrode was superior to that of the pristine sample. 1- and 2-wt %-coated samples showed considerable improvement in capacity retention at high C rates. However, the rate capability of a 5-wt %-coated sample decreased. All the coated samples showed a high discharge capacity and slightly improved cyclic performance under a high cut-off voltage (4.8 V) condition. Results of a storage test confirmed that the Li-La-Ti-O coating layer was effective in suppressing the dissolution of the transition metals as it offered protection from the attack of the acidic electrolyte. In particular, the 2- and 5-wt %-coated samples showed a better protection effect than the 1-wt %-coated sample.

In this study, nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ was coated on the surface of $LiFePO_4$ powders via a novel dry coating method. The influence of coated $LiFePO_4$ upon electrochemical behavior was discussed. Surface morphology characterization was achieved by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), clearly showing nano-crystallized $Al_2O_3$ on $LiFePO_4$ surfaces. Furthermore, it revealed that the $Al_2O_3$-coated $LiFePO_4$ cathode exhibited a distinct surface morphology. It was also found that the $Al_2O_3$ coating reduces capacity fading especially at high charge/discharge rates. Results from the cyclic voltammogram measurements (2.5-4.2 V) showed a significant decrease in both interfacial resistance and cathode polarization. This behavior implies that $Al_2O_3$ can prevent structural change of $LiFePO_4$ or reaction with the electrolyte on cycling. In addition, the $Al_2O_3$ coated $LiFePO_4$ compound showed highly improved area-specific impedance (ASI), an important measure of battery performance. From the correlation between these characteristics of bare and coated $LiFePO_4$, the role of $Al_2O_3$ coating played on the electrochemical performance of $LiFePO_4$ was probed.

효율적 비혈관용 약물방출 스텐트 제조를 위해 풀루란 아세테이트(pullulan acetate, PA)가 테프론(poly-tetrafluorethylene; PTFE)으로 피막된 스텐트(PTFE-stent)의 코팅재료로 연구되었다. 파크리탁셀 함유 PA가 코팅된 PTFE-stent의 표면, 약물 방출 거동, 세포독성이 측정되었으며, 동물실험을 통해 이의 가능성이 검토되었다. 전자현미경으로 표면을 관찰한 결과 표면이 PTFE 피막에 비해 훨씬 매끄러웠고, 약물은 80일 동안 서방적 방출 거동을 보였다. PA와 함께 코팅된 파크리탁셀의 안정성을 annexin V 결합 염색법을 통하여 측정한 결과 apoptosis의 비율이 천연 파크리탁셀과 유사한 것으로 보아 봉입된 파크리탁셀의 변성이 없음을 알 수 있었다. 소동물 실험에서는 파크리탁셀이 봉입된 PA-PTFE가 고형암의 성장을 억제하였다. 위의 결과로 보아 PA는 효율적 비혈관계 약물방출 스텐트 개발에 매우 유용한 물질이라고 기대된다.

티타늄은 우수한 생체 적합성으로 임플란트 재료로 많이 사용되고 있지만 높은 비용과 뼈 대비 높은 영률로 인한 문제점이 있다. 이를 대체할 재료로 마그네슘합금이 주목받고 있다. 마그네슘합금은 티타늄과 마찬가지로 생체 적합성이 우수하고 뼈와 비슷한 영률을 가지고 있다. 하지만 부식으로 인한 내식성 문제가 있어 이를 해결하기 위해 다양한 표면 처리법이 연구되고 있다. 본 연구는 EDTA를 포함한 전해 용액에서 AZ31 마그네슘 합금 표면에 전해플라즈마공정으로 세라믹 코팅 층을 성장시키고 형성된 코팅의 특성은 SEM, XRD를 통해 미세구조 및 형상을 분석하였고 코팅 층의 미세 경도 측정을 하였으며, 사람의 혈장과 비슷한 성분인 SBF용액 내에서 부식테스트를 통해 생체내에서의 부식 특성을 평가하였다.

This paper is to investigate the effect of corrosion by acoustic emission method in tensile loading and the adhesiveness between substrate and coating layer. The powders used are Zn and Amdry625, respectively. They are coated on brass alloy substrate. AE signals of Zn and Amdry625 coating layer increase drastically in strain $2\%$. However, those of Zn specimen have more than those of Amdry625 specimen. When the specimens executed the corrosion test under $3.5\%$ NaCl solution for 500, 1000 hours, the salt solution penetrated into the surface of the substrate through the pores of the coating layer. As a result, corrosion production formed on the surface of the substrate. The adhesiveness between coating layers is weakened by the polarization and corrosion itself. The AE event, count, and energy of corroded coating specimens decrease, compared to specimens without corrosion. The results are summarized as follows : 1. In the tensile tests, the time that it took to start and develop the cracks and exfoliations between the surface of the substrates and the plasma spray coatings were different according to the type of plasma sprayed material, which are Zn and Amdry625. These phenomena were obvious at the strain rate 1 to $5\%$, and few available data were found after that stage. 2. The specimens with Zn coating showed the characteristics of crack, according to the changes of the tensile strength applied on the substrates while those with Amdry625 showed exfoliation as a result of low adaptation to the tensile strength. 3. The anti-corrosion specimens showed that the adhesive properties between the substrate and the plasma spray coating were strong in the order of Zn, Amdry. It showed that Corroded specimens cracked or exfoliated easily, even with the small energy, because those had a comparatively weakened adhesive property, due to corrosion. 4. Zn specimen showed no corrosion phenomena on the surface of the substrates, because they had the function of sacrifice anode however, Amdry625 specimen showed the corrosion, because it did not have that function.

Seals are very useful machine components in protection of leakage of lubricant or working fluid, and incoming of debris from outside. Various elastomer are widely used as sealing materials and the shaft surfaces are generally coated with high hardness material after heat treatment. It is generally known that the foreign debris and wear particles get stuck into sealing surface, the steel shaft surface can be damaged and worn by mainly abrasive wear. In this paper, using MARC, contact analysis are conducted to show the hard coated steel shaft surface can be fatigue failed by very small elastic particle intervened between seal and steel surface. Variations of contact and von-Mises stress distributions and contact half-widths with interference and coating thickness are presented. The maximum von-Mises stress occurs always in the coating layer or between coated layer/substrate interface. Therefore the coated sealing surface can be fatigued and then failed by very small particles. The results can be used in design of sealing surface and further studies are required.

Slot coating has been wide spread in photo-resist coating on the glass for liquid crystal display. Die in slot coater consists of manifold and land. Material comes in inlet of the die and flow into the manifold and then flow out through the land. The coating thickness variations along the die length depend upon inside of die design such as manifold and die land. However the coating thickness variations along the moving direction(coating direction) of the coater depend upon the operational conditions of coater as well as die lip design. The coating behaviors including atmospheric air have been investigated in this study. Die geometries considered in this study were nozzle gap and length of the die lip. Coating gap and coating speed were the variables fur coating operational conditions. When the nozzle gap and length of die lip increased climbing effect of PR on the downstream die lip was reduced. Subsequently uniformity of coating thickness improved. Uniformity of coating thickness also enhanced as coating gap and coater speed increased. The uniformity of coating gap was related to the velocity vector distributions on the coating surface.

일반적으로 코팅은 철근 콘크리트를 보호하기 위한 방법으로 사용되어 진다. 이러한 목적으로 사용되어지는 코팅에는 무기계 코팅뿐만 아니라 유기계 코팅이 있다. 무기계 코팅의 장점은 낮은 자외선 투과성과 불연성 등이다. 반면, 유기계 코팅의 장점은 이산화탄소, 이산화황 및 물 등의 낮은 투과성이며 무기계 코팅보다 더 우수한 철근 콘크리트 보호성능을 가지고 있다. 그러나 에폭시, 우레탄 및 아크릴과 같은 유기계 코팅은 여러 가지 원인에 의해 장기 접착강도가 감소되고 형성된 코팅 막의 들뜸이 발생된다. 또한 유기계 코팅이 콘크리트의 습한 표면에 적용될 경우 접착의 문제점을 갖고 있다. 따라서, 콘크리트 구조물을 보호하고 유기계 코팅의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 폴리머와 시멘트계 재료를 합성시킨 코팅재(WGS-Eco)를 개발하였다. 본 연구에서는 개발된 코팅재와 이전에 사용되었던 코팅재의 물리 성능 및 내구 성능을 평가하였으며, 그 결과 개발된 코팅재는 유기계 코팅재에 비해 성능이 뒤떨어지지 않았다. 따라서 개발된 코팅재는 유기계와 무기계 코팅의 장점을 갖으면서 콘크리트를 보호하기 위한 적합한 코팅재라고 판단되었다.

The implanting of metal products is performed with numerous surface treatments because of toxicity and adhesion. Recently, the surface modification of metal products has been actively studied by coating the surface of the TiC or TiN film. We prepared a Ti(10%)Ag Target which may be used in dental oral material by, using the AIP(arc ion plating) system TiAgN coating layer that was deposited on Ti g.23. The purpose of this study was to establish the optimal bias voltage conditions of the coated TiAgN layer formed by the AIP process. The TiAgN coatings were prepared with different bias voltage parameters (0V to -500V) to investigate the effect of bias voltage on their mechanical and chemical properties. The SEM(scanning electron microscope), EDS(energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer), XRD(X-ray diffraction), micro-hardness, and potentiodynamic polarization were measured and the surface characteristics of the TiAgN coating layers were evaluated. The TiAgN coating layer had different mechanical characteristics based on the bias voltage, which also showed differences in thickness and composition.

PTFE 및 PFA 등의 불소수지는 최대 연속 사용 온도가 260$^{\circ}C$에 달하는 고온 내열성 고분자 소재로서, 본 연구에서 수행된 280 $^{\circ}C$, 7주 간의 열노화에 의해서도 충분한 열적 안정성이 유지됨을 관측하였다. 그러나 기계적 강도, 융점 및 열분해 개시 온도 등의 소재적 물성이 유지됨을 의미하는 상기한 열적 안정성은 본 연구에서 수행된 코팅막으로서의 표면접촉각, 미세 모폴로지, 내스크래치성 분석에 의한 방법을 기준하면 충분하지 못하다는 것이 확인 되었다. 공기 치환율이 제어되는 기어식 노화시험기로 진행된 불소수지 코팅막의 280 $^{\circ}C$ 열노화에 대한 분석의 결과는 심각한 표면 모폴로지의 손상과 금속기재에 대한 접착력의 손실을 지적하고 있다.
