42155 Advanced Surface Technology
Danish title: Avanceret overfladeteknologi
Language:  Danish    ECTS-creditpoints:  5, External examination.   
Type:  , course at phd level, open university
Class schedule:   F3-A
Exam schedule:   F3-A (maj 31 2002), E3-A (dec 15 2001)
Scope and form:  Lectures and visiting lecturers
Evaluation:  Oral exam
Examination:  13-scale
Previous course:  80263
Prerequisites:  Materialeteknologi
Aim:  The aim of the course is to enable the students to:
a) Characterize the different processes of surface technology.
b) Use the concept of Surface Engineering. (Describe the properties of the different surfaces, and use the properties in combination to solve complex problems such as corrosion, wear, solderability, friction, etc).
c) Suggest and select solutions to problems of surface treatment in the area of electronics, chemistry, construction, machine technology, with reference to selected functions.

The course is connected to many surface technology problems which are common to all engineers. The course gives a good introduction for specialization in electronic / microelectronic, printed circuit, thick film, thin film, plating of ceramics, manufacturing of magnetic films, chemical equipment for petrochemical or similar industries, off shore, machine and tool construction. The course enanbles the participants to solve wear,tribology and corrosion problems.
Contents:  The course deals with the following process areas, and their typical properties and applications: Chemical / electrochemical processes, chemical vapor deposition, physical vapor deposition, ionimplantation, thermal spraying, mechanical plating, hot dip galvanizing, diffusion processes (high temperature coatings), organic coatings.
Evaluation of surface qualities with reference to different physical and technological properties such as wear, corrosion, electric conductivity, soldering / brazing, reflection, friction will be done with reference to international standards.
Environmental and life cycle problems will be discussed in connection with the different processes.
The processes are illustrated with: Chromium plating, surface finishing of polymers and ceramics with metal coatings, manufacturing of printed circuits, manufacturing of micromechanic components in metal, hot dip galvanizing, anodizing, shielding, hardening of surfaces, thermal spraying for corrosion and / or wear protection, organic coatings (powder coatings, electrophoretic coatings etc.)
