We demonstrate a windmill type rotation of combined Mie particles caused by the evanescent field generated at the surface of a Gadolinium Gallium Garnet prism where a linearly polarized Nd:YAG laser beam (of wavelength 532 nm and power 100 mW) is totally reflected. The combined particles (e.g., doublets, triplets or quadruplets) consisting of polystyrene latex (or yeast) spheres with diameters of 3~5 m are reported to rotate at 0.1~1 rpm in water when the particles are slightly displaced from the center of the evanescent field.

However, regulations that different material properties of self-Adhesive waterproofing sheets are difficult on the standard. Therefore, this research was performed for of quality control all affiliations of self-adhesive waterproofing sheet through basic properties test and proposed quality standard revised bill in KS F 4934.

최근 자연환경보전이라는 새로운 패러다임의 대두로 하천환경의 보전과 개선의 필요성에 대한 공감대가 형성되기 시작하였으며, 하천의 환경적 기능을 고려하는 관리방안이 제시되고 있다. 이를 반영하는 것이 최근 활발히 논의되고 있는 하천기능 복원기술의 개발이다. 이는 하천정비나 관리에 있어서 하천의 생태적 기능에 초점을 맞추는 것으로 1990년대 이후 확산된 환경기능을 고려한 하천정비 및 관리보다 구체화된 하천의 생태환경기능의 회복을 포함하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 내구성이 강화된 식생매트를 개발함에 있어 라텍스를 이용한 친환경 코팅 매트를 개발하여 식물의 정착효과를 비교분석하여 효율적인 저수호안공법을 제시 하였다.

The Purpose of this study is to clarify the effect of the monomer ratio on properties of the polymer-modified mortars using methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate latexes, and to obtain basic data necessary to develop appropriate latexes for cement modifiers. This paper deals with the effect of the monomer ratio on the typical properties of polymer-modified mortars with methyl methacrylate-butyl acrylate latexes. The polymer latex-modified mortars are prepared with 5, 10, IS and 20% of polymer cement ratio respectively, and properties of modified mortars such as water absorption, compressive and flexural strengths, chloride-ion penetration depth are tested. The test results indicate that the monomer ratio is very important factors to characterize the strength properties of polymer-modified mortars, but the water absorption and chloride-ion penetration depth are influenced by polymer-cement ratio rather than monomer ratios.

This study focused on the investigation of strength development and permeability of LMC(latex modified concrete) and RSLMC(rapid-setting cement latex modified concrete) as the latex content, cement types and w/c ratio variated. The compressive strength of latex modified concrete decreased slightly and the flexural strength increased quitely at the latex content of 15%. This may due to the flexibility of latex filled in voids and interconnections of hydrated cement and aggregates by a film of latex particles, respectively. The permeability test results showed that the permeability of LMC was considerably lower than that of conventional concrete. In the RSLMC's tests of permeability to chloride ion indicated very low permeability at an early age, which nay be due to the early formation of needle-shape ettringites and latex film.

Drying shrinkage cracking which may be caused by the relatively large specific surface is a matter of grave concern for latex modified concrete(LMC) overlay and rapid-setting cement latex modified concrete(RSLMC) overlay. LMC and RSLMC were studied for field applications very actively in terms of strength and durability in Korea. However, there were no considerations in drying shrinkage. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the drying shrinkage properties of LMC and RSLMC with the main experimental variables such as cement types(ordinary portland cement, rapid setting cement), latex contents(0, 5, 10, 15, 20%), W-C ratios, and curing days at a controlled environment of 60% of relative humidity and 2$0^{\circ}C$ of temperature. The drying shrinkage for specimens was measured with a digital dial gauge of Demec. The test results showed that the drying shrinkage of LMC and RSLMC were considerably lower than that of OPC and RSC, respectively. This might be attributed to the interlocking of hydrated cement and aggregates by a film of latex particles, water retention due to hydrophobic, and colloidal properties of the latexes resulting in reduced water evaporation.

At present, the polymer-modified mortars are used as high-performance as well as multi-functional materials in the construction industry. The purpose of this study is to synthesize polymer to modify in cement mortars and make test samples to understand pore size distribution. This paper deals with the effect of monomer ratio on the typical properties of polymer-modified mortars using Methylmethacrylate-Butyl Acrylate(MMA/BA) latexes synthesized through emulsion polymerization. From the results, we knew that the pore volume of polymer-modified mortars using Methylmethacrylate-Butyl Acrylate latexes at bound MMA contents of 70 and 60 percent is 7.5-75cm$^3$/g and the fine pore volume is increased with an increase in the polymer-cement ratio. The total pore volume of polymer-modified mortars using MMA/BA latexes is linearly reduced with an increase in the bound MMA content and increased in the polymer-cement ratio.

Kinetics of termonomer emulsion polymerization during interval II (i.e, after completion of latex particle formation) were studied through pseudo-homopolymerization (PHP) method. Extended Smith-Ewart equation and equation of instantaneous polymer composition are respectively reduced to the corresponding equation for homopolymerization by defining average rate constants. Average number of radicals per particle and instantaneous polymer compositions were respectively predicted by varying termonomer composition within latex particles for systems containing no more than one growing radical per particle. Styrene-Methyl methacrylate-Acrylonitrile (SMA) system was used for model calculation.

This study was performed to change the latex content for properties of freezing-thawing resistance. When styrene-butadiene latex is added to portland cement, aggregate and water, a concrete with the color, consistency and workability of ordinary conventional concrete results, but with 20% to 35% less water. When cured, the concrete consists of hydrated cement and aggregate interconnected by a film of latex particles. In general, increasing the amount of latex will produce concrete with increased tensile and flexural strength and lower modulus of elasticity. Air entrainment has been used in conventional concrete for the past 50 years to impart freeze-thaw resistance. Latex modified concrete does not need additional air entrainment for freeze-thaw resistance provided adequate cure occurs.
