The oxidation of nanocrystalline powder has been conducted to investigate its influence on the electromagnetic wave absorption characteristics of the soft magnetic material. Oxidation occurred primarily on the surface of nanocrystals. Oxidation reduced the real part of complex permeability due to the reduction of the relative volume of the powder, which otherwise contributes to the permeability. Oxidation reduced the absorption efficiency of the sheet at frequencies over 1GHz, indicating that the relative contribution of skin depth increments to the absorption was not significant. The pulverization and milling process lowered the optimum crystallization temperature of the material by because of the internal energy accumulated during the fragmentation and powder thinning processes.

Electromagnetic wave absorbing materials have been developed to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) for electronic devices in recent years. In this study, Fe-Si-B-Nb-Cu base amorphous strip was pulverized using a jet mill and an attritor and heat-treated to get flake-shaped nanocrystalline powders, and then the powders were mixed, cast and dried with dielectric powders and binders. As a result, the addition of powders improved the absorbing properties of the sheets noticeably compared with those of the sheets without dielectric materials. The sheet mixed with 2 wt% powder showed the best electromagnetic wave absorption, which was caused by the increase of the permittivity and the electric resistance due to the dielectric materials finely dispersed on the Fe-based powder

The structural and magnetic properties of nanostructued alloy powders were investigated. Commercial alloy powders (Hoeganaes Co., USA) with purities were used to fabricate the nanostructure Fe-Si alloy powders through a high-energy ball milling process. The alloy powders were fabricated at 400 rpm for 50 h, resulting in an average grain size of 16 nm. The nanostructured powder was characterized by fcc and hcp phases and exhibited a minimum coercivity of approximately 50 Oe

High temperature deformation behavior of activated sintered W powder compacts was investigated. The compression tests were carried out in the temperature range between 900 and 110 at the strain rate of . The sintered specimens of Ni-doped submicron W powder compacts showed decrease in W grain size with increasing the Ni content. As the result, the flow stress was significantly increased with increasing the Ni content. We obtained Ni-activated sintered W compacts with the relative density of 94 l％and the average grain size of less than 5. A moderate true strain up to 0.60 was obtained without fracture even at 110 with the strain rate of for the activated W compact despite adding the 1.0 wt％Ni to submicron W powder.

Distribution of (211) Particles within (123) grains of melt infiltration processed YBCO oxides was investigated. Processing parameters were a temperature, atmosphere (air and ) and initial 211 size. The 211 particles were distributed randomly within the 123 grains when the initial 211 size was large, while they made x-like pattern and/or butterfly-like patterns when the 211 size was small. The 211 patterns were more clearly observed in the samples prepared at higher temperatures and under atmosphere. The 211 distribution was explained in terms of the interfacial energy relationship among the solid, particle and melt.

Ni-36at.%Al을 함유하는 나도 결정립의 NiAl 합금이 기계적 합금화법에 의해 제조되었다. 제조된 분말은 방전 플라즈마 소결법에 의해 만들어졌다. 상변테에 영향을 주는 인자는 냉각속도와 열처리 시간의 조건으로 논의되었다. 소결체의 상변태 거동은 시차 열분석(DSC)과 X-선 회절(XRD) 분석법에 의해 조사되었다. 미세구조는 주사전자현미경(SEM)으로 관찰되었다. 마르텐사이트 격사상수와 체적 분율은 X-선 회절분석법 중 직접비교법에 의해 계산되었다.

가공열처리에 의한 결정립계조절 개념을 이용하여 Alloy 600 재료의 결정립계특성과 부식특성을 조사하였다. 가공열 처리에 따른 결정립계특성 변화를 EBSP로 분석하였으며, 결정립계특성 변화가 입계부식 및 응력부식균열 거동에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 가공열처리 반복에 따른 각 단계에서의 CSL 입계의 분율 변화가 두드러지지는 않았으나, 상용재료에 비하여 CSL 분율이 약 10% 이상 향상된 결과를 얻었다. 결정립계특성 변화에 따라 입계부식 저항성이 현저하게 증가하였으나, 1차측 응력부식균열 특성에 있어서는 가공열처리를 반복할수록 파단시간과 최대하중이 감소하고 평균 균열성장속도가 증가하였으며 2차 균열이 억제되는 결과를 얻었다. 결정립계의 'fine tuning' 기구가 이러한 부식거동변화에 작용한 것으로 해석할 수 있었다.

본 연구는 냉간가공과 열처리를 통해 Cu-26.65Zn-4.05Al-0.31Ti(wt%) 형상기억합금의 결정립을 미세화하기 위한 목적으로 수행하였다. 냉간가공을 위하여는 α-상이 가능한 많이 존재하는 (α+β)-조직을 가져야 하는데, 이는 550℃에서 열처리함으로써 얻었고, 최종두께 1mm로 냉간압연하였다. 총 압연율은 70%와 90%이었다. 냉간압연한 판재를 800℃에서 가열 후 급랭함으로써 형상기억특성을 갖는 상으로 변태시켰으며, 이 대 결정립크기를 측정한 결과, 열간압연한 경우보다 냉간압연과 열처리를 한 경우의 결정립이 월등히 작아졌음을 보여주었다. 냉간압연과 열처리를 한 경우에는 냉간압연 변형율이 큰 경우가 결정립이 더 작아지는 경향을 보였다. 또한 결정립크기가 작아짐에 따라 변태온도가 저하되었으며 오스테나이트상이 더 안정하게 되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. In this study, cold-rolling and appropriate annealing was adopted for the grain refining of Cu-26.65Zn-4. 05Al-0.31Ti(wt%) shape memory alloy. For the cold deformation of this alloy the ducti1e α-phase must be contained. After heat treatment at 550℃ the (α+β)-dual phase with 40vol.% α-phase was obtained which could be rolled at room temperature. This alloy was cold rolled into a final thickness of 1.0mm with total reduction degrees of 70% and 90%. The rolled sheets were betanized at 800℃ for various times, then quenched into ice water. The grain size of co]d rolled samples were 60∼80 ㎛ which is much smaller comparing with the hot-rolled samples. And the 90% rolled sample showed smaller grain size than the case of the 70% rolled one. The small grain size had influence on the phase transformation temperatures and stabilization of the austenitic phases.

Al-Cr-Zr nanocomposite metal powders were prepared by mechnical alloying (MA) in order to develop aircraft structure materials with lighter weight and lower cost than the conventional Ti and Ni alloys. The morphological changes and microstrutural evolution of Al-6wt.%Cr-3wt.%Zr nanocomposite metal powders during MA were investigated by SEM, XRD and TEM. The approximately 50m sized Al-Cr-Zr nanocomposite metal powders has been formed after 20 h of MA. The individual X-ray diffraction peaks of Al, Cr and Zr were broadened and peak intensitied were decreased as a function of MA time. The observed Al crystallite size by TEM was in the range of 20 nm, which is a simliar value calculated by Scherrer equation. The microhardness of Al-Cr-Zr nanocomposite metal powders increases alomost linearly with increase of the processing time, reaching a saturation hardness value of 127 kg/ after 20 h of processing. The intermetallic compound phase of in the matrix was identifed by XRD and TEM.

합금의 주조시 냉각속도가 Nd16Fe72V4B8 소결자석의 결정립 분포와 착자특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 조사하였다. 냉각속도가 높은 Cu mold를 사용하여 제작한 시료는 좁은 결정립 분포와 착자특성의 향상을 보였다. B화합물을 생성하는 Cr, Mn, Nb 그리고 w과 같은 첨가원소가 Nd-Fe-B계 소결자석의 착자특성에 미치는 영향에 대해서도 조사하였다. Cr이나 W첨가는 보자력의 향상에 효과적이고 Nd16Fe72Cr4B9합금은 Nd16Fe72V4B8합금과 비슷한 착자특성을 보였다.

NiAI기 산화물 분산강화(Oxide Dispersion Strengthende:ODS)합금을 기계적 합금화 (Mechanical Alloying: MA)방법으로 제조하였으며, 열간압축방법으로 성형하였다. 연이어 단순항온처리에 의한 정상결정립성장과 특성조건에서의 thermomechanical treatment 에 의한 이차재결정화를 유도하였다. 결정립 조대화된 ODSD MA NiAI의 creep 성질 및 이에 조대화된 미세조직은 creep 성질이 저하된 반면, 이차재결정화된 MA NiAI의 creep성질은 크게 향상되었다. 이 creep 성질의 향상은 이차재결정화의 특성인 급격한 결정립의 조대화, 분산상의 성장억제 및 grain aspect ratio의 증가에 기인한 것으로 사료되었다. 이차재결정화된 ODS MA NiAI의 creep또는 glide controlled dislocation creep임을 제시하지만, 전체 creep속도가 결정립 크기 및 grain aspect ratio의 영향을 크게 받은 것을 볼 때, 결정립계 미끄럼기구가 주 creep 기구와 조합되어 MA NiAI의 전체 creep기구에 영향을 준 것으로 추정할 수 있었다.

Densification behavior and grain growth of tool steel powder compacts during pressureless sintering, sinter forging, and hot isostatic pressing were investigated. Experimental data were compared with results of finite element calculations by using the constitutive model of Abouaf and co-workers and that of McMeeking and co-workers. Densification and deformation of tool steel powder compacts were studied by implementing power-law creep, diffusional creep, and grain growth into the finite element analysis. The shape change of a powder compact in the container during hot isostatic pressing was also studied. The theoretical models did not agree well with experimental data in sinter forging, however, agreed well with experimental data in hot isostatic pressing.
