This paper deals with a coating technique for hardening surface layer of softwood(Larix leptolepis) flooring board to improve its surface properties such as hardness and abrasion resistance, Two coating methods were applied for surface hardening of the wood in this study. First, several functional monomers were added in UV-curing epoxy acrylate varnish. Secondly, unsaturated polyester varnish was used as under coat and acryl varnish including anti-abrasive agent was used as top coat. The hardness of the treated wood was similar to that of high density hardwood such as keruing by the first coating method. The abrasion resistance of the coated wood was greatly improved by the second method. Adhesion properties and impact resistance of the coated wood surface were also good. It was suggested that the well-coated softwood could be used as interior flooring board for heavy walking as substitute for hardwood.

In the fabrication of steel bridges, blast cleaning prior to painting is carried out on the steel members to clean the forged surface and to increase the adhesive property of the applied painting systems. The effect of blast cleaning on the fatigue strength improvement of the weld joints, however, is not clear. In this study, Almen strips and steel specimens were blast-treated, conforming to ten types of blast-cleaning conditions deducted from the blast-cleaning conditions of seven steel structure fabrication companies. The arc height, roughness, hardness, and compressive residual stress were measured before and after the implementation of the ten blast-cleaning methods, and the relationship between the blast conditions and the measured values was studied. The geometry of the weld toe and the compressive residual stress near the weld toe were also measured before and after the blast cleaning of the butt-welded joints, and fatigue tests were carried out on the butt weld joints. The test results showed that blast cleaning significantly increases the fatigue strength and limit.

An activated carbon-photo catalysis hybrid system is proposed for the treatment of VOC produced from paint booth. and its VOC removal performance is experimentally evaluated. Activated carbon tower is designed on the basis of the adsorption characteristics of toluene. Photocatalytic system is designed as the series of $TiO_2/SiO\_2$ fluidized bed reactor and $TiO_2$-coated filters. The present activated carbon-photo catalysis hybrid system shows the VOC removal efficiency within $75\~100\%$ under different VOC species and concentrations.

Heavy duty coating is playing an important role in the field of heavy industry in the development of the shipbuilding and plant industries. Heavy duty coating has the very important function of protecting steel under serious corrosive conditions. The airless tip used for heavy duty coating is an essential part that determines the spray pattern of the paint. This research investigated the injection properties of three airless tips(numbers 521, 523, and 525) by using particle image velocimetry(PIV). The velocity and turbulent intensity according to pressure change with each tip type were investigated by using PIV. If the pressure is greater, the turbulent intensity becomes stronger and the break up of particles becomes bigger as the tip number gets smaller. The velocity is the fastest in the center and decreases in the radial direction.

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an immunologically-mediated disease resulting from repeated exposure to sensitizing agents, such as organic dusts or chemicals. Isocyanate is a volatile and highly reactive chemical that is extensively used in the manufacturing of automobiles, upholstery, and polyurethane foam. Occupational respiratory diseases associated with isocyanate, such as bronchial asthma, are well-known. It is thought that HP is one of the rare diseases induced by isocyanate with a very low frequency worldwide. We report a case of HP in an automobile painting sprayer which appeared to be associated with isocyanate.

To recover of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) induced by painting process, we prepared separation system using hollow fiber membrane modules and evaluated the recovery performance of VOCs with different feed pressure and operating time. Concentration of volatile organic compound in permeate through the membrane increased with increasing operating time and pressure. Performance of the membrane for removing the VOCs when we applied 2-stage process showed better performance than that of single stage process.

A lot of VOCs that is noxious ate exhausted at drying process of enamel coating device. This VOC gas can be incinerated perfectly through catalytic combustion, and heat that is occurred in incineration process ran be again used in drying process. By using VU catalytic combustion technology, in this study, we developed a enamel coating machine that have an excellent environment improvement and energy saying effect. As basic research for this development characteristics ana performance of catalytic combustion for VOC gas was evaluated and numerical analysis for drying oven was calculated. According to the result, VOCs combustion characteristics of metal form catalysis was excellent in high temperature, and it was seen that enamel coating machine should be designed as a precious controllable structure of recirculating supply rate and suction rate.

It was thought that the stiffness of a coated specimen became lower than that of the solid wood because the stiffness of the dried film of coating material is lower than that of the solid wood. The authors were trying to compare the effect of lacquer varnish and rhus lacquer on the resonant frequency of the solid woods for the violin, spruce and maple. Vibration modal shape of coated specimens were same to those of solid woods, but the frequency became lower at each mode as were expected regardless of coat. frequency decrement of coated specimen was getting larger at upper mode in both European violin woods, however, rhus lacquer coated spruce specimens were less affected than lacquer varnish coated specimens.

Anticorrosive paint is the most widely used in shipbuilding and the dry film thickness is very important in terms of productivity and assurance of anticorrosive performance. However, it is difficult to achieve the recommended target film thickness because the dry film thickness depends on labor's skill in practice and is affected by a number of parameters, such as spray pressure, paint flow rate, tip size, spray distance, SVR(Solid Volume Ratio), etc. Present paper derives an empirical equation through the correlation analysis of parameters selected by spray experiments of anti corrosive painting in order to predict the coated status. Comparing the calculated results with practical data, we show that the empirical equation can successfully expect DFT(Dry Film Thickness).

We investigated resin, thinner, painting, and injection for analyzing the chemical effect of polymer, and made the optimum solution with the best performance of ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) resin. The effect depended on chemical material especially its chemical and physical properties instead of mechanical transformation. When we looked over ABS resin, injection, chemical material and painting, we found out thinner was the main factor for painting problem. Throughout this test, we could solve the problem, secure the system for control process and drop many factors for changing quality.
