초고성능 콘크리트의 충전밀도 향상을 위해 잔골재보다 미세한 실리카플라워를 사용하여 물리적 특 성변화를 분석하였다. 평균입경 300㎛의 규사를 100㎛인 실리카플라워로 일부 치환하여 압축강도, 휨 강도 변화와 유동성 변화를 측정하였다. 실리카플라워 사용으로 인해 압축강도와 휨강도가 향상되었으 나 유동성 저하로 인해 동일한 유동성을 확보하기 위해 추가적인 고성능감수제의 투입이 필요하였다. 유동성 저하는 바인더 차이에는 큰 영향을 받지 않았으며, 추가적인 고성능감수제 투입은 유사하게 나 타났다.

In this study, the physical properties and fracture characteristics according to the tensile load are evaluated on the materials of the polymeric filler and carbon fiber-based composite sleeve technique. The polymeric filler and the composite sleeve technique are applied to areas where the pipe body thickness is reduced due to corrosion in large-diameter water pipes. First, the tensile strength of the polymeric filler was 161.48~240.43 kgf/cm2, and the tensile strength of the polyurea polymeric filler was relatively higher than that of the epoxy. However, the tensile strength of the polymeric filler is relatively very low compared to ductile cast iron pipes(4,300 kgf/cm2<) or steel pipes(4,100 kgf/cm2). Second, the tensile strength of glass fiber, which is mainly used in composite sleeves, is 3,887.0 kgf/cm2, and that of carbon fiber is up to 5,922.5 kgf/cm2. The tensile strengths of glass and carbon fiber are higher than ductile cast iron pipe or steel pipe. Third, when reinforcing the hemispherical simulated corrosion shape of the ductile cast iron pipe and the steel pipe with a polymeric filler, there was an effect of increasing the ultimate tensile load by 1.04 to 1.06 times, but the ultimate load was 37.7 to 53.7% compared to the ductile cast iron or steel specimen without corrosion damage. It was found that the effect on the reinforcement of the corrosion damaged part was insignificant. Fourth, the composite sleeve using carbon fiber showed an ultimate load of 1.10(0.61T, 1,821.0 kgf) and 1.02(0.60T, 2,290.7 kgf) times higher than the ductile cast iron pipe(1,657.83 kgf) and steel pipe(2,236.8 kgf), respectively. When using a composite sleeve such as fiber, the corrosion damage part of large-diameter water pipes can be reinforced with same level as the original pipe, and the supply stability can be secured through accident prevention.

As a filler metal for lowering the melting point of Ag, many alloy metal candidates have emerged, such as cadmium, with zinc, manganese, nickel, and titanium as active metals. However, since cadmium is known to be harmful to the human body, Cd-free filler metals are now mainly used. Still, no study has been conducted comparing the characteristics of joints prepared with and without cadmium. In addition, studies have yet to be conducted comparing the typical characteristics of brazing filler metals with special structures, and the joint characteristics of brazing filler metals with available frames. In this study, the characteristics of junctions of silver-based intercalation metals were compared based on the type of filler metal additives, using a special structure, a filler metal sandwich structure, to protect the internal base metal. The general filler metal was compared using the structure, and the thickness of the filler metal according to the thickness was reached. A comparison of the characteristics of the junction was conducted to identify the characteristics of an intersection of silver-based brazing filler metal and the effect on joint strength. Each filler metal’s collective tensile strength was measured, and the relationship between joint characteristics and tensile joint strength was explored. The junction was estimated through micro strength measurement, contact angle measurement with the base metal when the filler metal was melted, XRD image observation, composition analysis for each phase through SEM-EDS, and microstructure phase acquisition.

본 연구에서는 PEBAX 2533에 합성된 PEI-GO@ZIF-8의 함량을 달리 첨가하여 혼합막을 제조하고 N2와 CO2의 투과 특성을 연구하였다. PEBAX/PEI-GO@ZIF-8 혼합막의 N2 투과도는 PEI-GO@ZIF-8 함량이 증가함에 따라 감소하였고, CO2 투과도는 PEI-GO@ZIF-8 함량에 따라 다른 경향을 보였는데 순수 PEBAX 막에서 PEI-GO@ZIF-8 0.1 wt%까지 CO2 투과도는 증가하다가 그 이후의 함량에서는 감소하였다. PEI-GO@ZIF-8 0.1 wt% 혼합막은 CO2 투과도 221.9 Barrer, CO2/N2 선택도는 60.0으로, 제조된 혼합막들 중 CO2 투과도와 CO2/N2 선택도가 향상되어 가장 높은 투과 특성을 보였고 Robeson upper-bound에 도달하는 결과를 얻었다. 이는 충진물이 PEBAX 내에 고루 분산되면서 CO2와 친화적인 상호작용을 하는 GO의 -COOH, -O-, -OH 작용기와 PEI에 결합된 아민기 그리고 CO2에 대해 gate-opening 현상이 일어나는 ZIF-8의 영 향 때문이다.

A Cu-15Ag-5P filler metal (BCuP-5) is fabricated on a Ag substrate using a high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) thermal spray process, followed by post-heat treatment (300oC for 1 h and 400oC for 1 h) of the HVOF coating layers to control its microstructure and mechanical properties. Additionally, the microstructure and mechanical properties are evaluated according to the post-heat treatment conditions. The porosity of the heat-treated coating layers are significantly reduced to less than half those of the as-sprayed coating layer, and the pore shape changes to a spherical shape. The constituent phases of the coating layers are Cu, Ag, and Cu-Ag-Cu3P eutectic, which is identical to the initial powder feedstock. A more uniform microstructure is obtained as the heat-treatment temperature increases. The hardness of the coating layer is 154.6 Hv (as-sprayed), 161.2 Hv (300oC for 1 h), and 167.0 Hv (400oC for 1 h), which increases with increasing heat-treatment temperature, and is 2.35 times higher than that of the conventional cast alloy. As a result of the pull-out test, loss or separation of the coating layer rarely occurs in the heat-treated coating layer.

In this study, a new manufacturing process for a multilayer-clad electrical contact material is suggested. A thin and dense BCuP-5 (Cu-15Ag-5P filler metal) coating layer is fabricated on a Ag plate using a high-velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) process. Subsequently, the microstructure and bonding properties of the HVOF BCuP-5 coating layer are evaluated. The thickness of the HVOF BCuP-5 coating layer is determined as 34.8 μm, and the surface fluctuation is measured as approximately 3.2 μm. The microstructure of the coating layer is composed of Cu, Ag, and Cu-Ag-Cu3P ternary eutectic phases, similar to the initial BCuP-5 powder feedstock. The average hardness of the coating layer is 154.6 HV, which is confirmed to be higher than that of the conventional BCuP-5 alloy. The pull-off strength of the Ag/BCup-5 layer is determined as 21.6 MPa. Thus, the possibility of manufacturing a multilayer-clad electrical contact material using the HVOF process is also discussed.

The electrochemical reaction between lead borate glass frit doped with Sn metal filler and Ni-Cr wire of a J-type resistor during a term of Joule heating is investigated. The fusing behavior in which the Ni-Cr wire is melted is not observed for the control group but measured for the Sn-doped specimen under 30 V and 500 mA. The Sn-doped lead borate glass frit shows a fusing property compared with other metal-doped specimens. Meanwhile, the redox reaction significantly contributes to the fusing behavior due to the release of free electrons of the metal toward the glass. The electrons derived from the glass, which used Joule heat to reach the melting point of Ni-Cr wire, increase with increasing corrosion rate at interface of metal/ glass. Finally, the confidence interval is 95 ± 1.959 %, and the adjusted regression coefficient, R in the optimal linear graph, is 0.93, reflecting 93% of the data and providing great potential for fusible resistor applications.

In this study, we fabricate a thin- and dense-BCuP-5 coating layer, one of the switching device multilayers, through a plasma spray process. In addition, the microstructure and macroscopic properties of the coating layer, such as hardness and bond strength, are investigated. Both the initial powder feedstock and plasma-sprayed BCuP-5 coating layer show the main Cu phase, Cu-Ag-Cu3P ternary phases, and Ag phase. This means that microstructural degradation does not occur during plasma spraying. The Vickers hardness of the coating layer was measured as 117.0 HV, indicating that the fine distribution of the three phases enables the excellent mechanical properties of the plasma-sprayed BCuP-5 coating layer. The pull-off strength of the plasma-sprayed BCuP-5 coating layer is measured as 16.5 kg/cm2. Based on the above findings, the applicability of plasma spray for the fabrication process of low-cost multi-layered electronic contact materials is discussed and suggested.

In aluminum brazing processes, corrosive flux, which is used in preventing oxidation, is currently raising environmental concerns because it generates many pollutants such as dioxin. The brazing process involving noncorrosive flux is known to encounter difficulties because the melting temperature of the flux is similar to that of the base material. In this study, a new brazing filler material is developed based on aluminum and non-corrosive flux composite powder. To minimize the interference of consolidation aluminum alloy powder by the flux, the flux is intentionally embedded in the aluminum alloy powder using a mechanical milling process. This study demonstrates that the morphology of the composite powder can be varied according to the mixing process, and this significantly affects the relative density and mechanical properties of the final filler samples.

Recently, the interest in the development of Oilless bearings, which is a kind of sliding bearing, has been attracting to industry. Oilless bearings are mainly used in areas where fluid lubrication is difficult to apply because of large contact area. The purpose of this study is to develop products with higher load and durability compared to the conventional oilless bearing. For this purpose, the optimal steel sheet was obtained and the porosity evaluation was carried out by evaluating bronze sinterability for various steel sheets. The conclusion obtained is as follows.; It was found that steel plate suitable for bronze powder plate is SPCC CR (Cold Rolled). The average porosity of KAG-23, KAG-23G and PBF-8 specimens was 16.8%, 17.8% and 22.1%, respectively, indicating that the porosity of PBF-8 specimen was the highest. As the number of rolling increases, the surface porosity decreases rapidly.

Cold recycled asphalt has been utilized to overcome high energy consumption and working temperature and low recycled pavement material percentage in hot mix asphalt and concrete pavement [1]. Up to dates, asphalt recycling on site called as Cold In-Place Recycling (CIR), Cold Central Plant Recycling (CCPR) and even hot recycling technologies have been developed and applied to the fields, but limitations such as poor adhesion between gravel and asphalt, slow hydration time, bleeding pavement are reported, respectively [2, 3, 4]. Among these issues, hydration time and initial strength in application are all related to the property of mineral filler influencing the mechanical property of pavement mixture. Due to these reasons, there have been continuous needs to develop new mineral filler to overcome previously reported issues by with the respects of mineral composition, hydration reaction and surface reaction enhancement. In this study, several natural minerals such as alumina, silicate, and calcium oxide were utilized as raw materials and following characterizations using SEM, EDS, XRD, and BET were performed to evaluate materials properties and suggest research directions for the optimum mineral filler development.

The object of this paper is to examine the optimum sintering condition which have excellent mechanical properties compared to the conventional oilless bearing. It is shown that the sintering rate is the most excellent at 850°C, especially KAB-23, KAB-23G, PBF-8 specimens. With increasing the nitrogen injection rate, the apparent porosity increased gradually. In contrast, with increasing the hydrogen injection rate, the apparent porosity decreased gradually. It is shown that the apparent porosity is very useful in the range of nitrogen injection rate 2Nm 3 and hydrogen injection rate 10Nm 3 .
