A collaborative study between a graduate school student and undergraduate student at YU received the ‘Excellent Research Award’ in the materials and metals sector international academic conference, ‘ISMM 2019 (3rd International Seminar on Metallurgy and Materials)’.
They are Nisa Nashrah (25, fourth term in integrated master’s and PhD course) from Indonesia and undergraduate senior Baek Seung-hoon (25) in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at YU. ‘ISMM 2019’ is an international academic conference hosted by the Indonesian government held at the International Convention Exhibition Center in Tangerang, Indonesia from October 23 to 24. Over 200 researchers from universities and research institutes from around the world including Indonesia, China, Japan, Thailand, Singapore and India attended this academic conference.
The YU research team made a presentation on the recent research results on ‘enhancing acid-resistance through control of micro-discharge of plasma electrolytic oxidation’, receiving attention from relevant academia.
Advisor and YU Department of Materials Science and Engineering Professor Goh Young-geon explained, “This research result is a basic research for the commercialization of plasma electrolytic oxidation that can replace anodization, which was the surface technology used in the past. This technology can be used to localize surface treating technologies, which is highly dependent on Japan, and it will improve the national root industry competitiveness.” He added, “This study is a collaborative research between a foreigner graduate student and Korean undergraduate student, and the achievements are significant as it was made through joint research between young scientists.”
The research results are scheduled to be published in the December issue of the world’s top international academic journal on surface treatment, <Applied Surface Science, impact factor (IF) 5.155)’.
