The recycle of the polycarbonate(PC)/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene(ABS) separated from the instrument panel (In-Panel) of the automotive was investigated. The small amount of polyurethane(PU) foam contained in the separated PC/ABS decreased the mechanical properties of the recycled PC/ABS. However, it is found that the PU foam formed the dispered phase of small particles at high temperature ($260^{\circ}C$) under high shear of the twin extruder, whereas it formed the big particles at low extrusion temperature ($220^{\circ}C$). The mechanical properties of the recycled PC/ABS extruded at high temperature was better than those at low temperature, which enabled the recycled PC/ABS seperated from In-Panel to be applied to the radiator grille without the addition of the compatibilizers or virgin PC/ABS. This was ascribed to the smaller particle sizes of the PU foam formed at high extrusion temperature under high shear.

Material properties of geomaterials are usually heterogeneous. And the limitted number of investigation for the subsurface material properties in terms of boreholes are not sufficient enough for identifying the heterogeneity. In most civil engineering work, pre-investigation results can be different from those by in-situ inspection during the construction work. With these points of view, a new analysis concept aiming to evaluate the uncertainty resulted from the heterogeneity of the geomaterial properties as well as to enhance a construction workability and design qualify by a prompt feedback of in-situ conditions was proposed. It was accomplished by linking the Element Free analysis and pre-developed stochastic methods represented by Karhunen-Loeve expansion. Simple ID problem was solved by the developed method, and its validity as well as the characteristic results by different stochastic methods were clarified.

In this study, the melt-mixing condition was optimized first to maximize the physical properties of a wood plastic composite (WPC) with recycled polypropylene (PP) and the effects of recycled PP content on the physical properties of the WPC were investigated. Mechanical properties of the WPC were measured by UTM and an izod impact tester and thermal properties were investigated by DSC, TGA and DMA. Fracture surfaces of the WPC were investigated by SEM. The optimized mixing condition of WPC with 50 wt% recycled PP of total PP was melt-mixing at $170^{\circ}C$ for 15 min at 60 rpm. With increasing the content of the recycled PP, the water absorption characteristics of the WPC increased and the thermal and mechanical properties decreased. However, the following was concluded from the analysis of all the physical properties; it was possible adding the recycled PP up to 50 wt% of total PP without a significant decrease in the performance of the WPC.

Methylene diisocyanate (MDI) was investigated as a novel interfacial modifier to enhance the performances of poly(methyl methacrylate)-modified starch/styrene-butadiene rubber (PMMA-modified starch/SBR) composites. Owing to the formation urethane linkage on one side and ${\pi}-{\pi}$ adhesion on the other side, MDI acted as an intermediated linkage role in the PMMA-modified starch/SBR interfaces, which was evidenced by the morphological, mechanical, dynamic mechanical and thermal decomposition studies. As a result, the presence of MDI significantly improved the mechanical properties and thermal stability of PMMA-modified starch/SBR composites. In addition, the effect of starch concentration on the various performances of the resulted MDI/PMMA-modified starch/SBR composites, such as morphology, vulcanization characteristics, mechanical properties, toluene swelling behavior, and thermal stability were investigated and discussed in detail. The obtained MDI/PMMA-modified starch/SBR composites exhibited superior mechanical properties to carbon black/SBR (CB/SBR) composites, demonstrating the potential use of the renewable starch as a substitute for CB in the rubber compounds.

물리검층은 주로 석유탐사 분야에서 개발·이용되어왔으나 소구경 시추공을 이용하는 지반조사. 자원평가, 지하수조사 또는 환경오염조사 등에서 물리검층의 수요가 증가하고 있다. 국내에서 수행된 물리검층은 우라늄 탐사 목적으로 1980년 전후로 많이 수행되었으며 1990년 중반에는 지하수 조사에 일부 활용되어 왔다. 현재 물리검층의 활용도가 증가하고 있는 분야는 지반조사 분야로 원위치 물성측정, 시추공과 교차하는 암반의 균열파악 등 터널, 교량과 같은 각종 토목분야의 지반조사에 많이 활용되고 있다. 이외에도 지하수 유동특성 규명이나 환경오염조사, 자원평가(지열, 온천, 석·골재, 금속광상 등)에도 활용되고 있다.

Surface modification of PTFE by ion irradiation was performed to improve its surface properties, In the case where argon was used to irradiate the PTFE films, an increase in the adhesion strength was observed when the ion fluence was over $1\times10^{15}\;ions/cm^2$, but the surface morphology dramatically changed to a needle-shaped one. However, when we used hydrogen ions under $O_2$ environmental gas, the adhesion strength increased at an ion fluence of $5\times10^{16}\;ions/cm^2$ and the surface morphology by the hydrogen irradiation was not needle-shaped. The surface morphology and adhesion strength of the hydrogen modified PTFE was influenced by the oxygen flow rate. It was confirmed by reflectance measurements that the surface properties of the hydrogen ion irradiated PTFE were superior to those of the argon ion irradiated PTFE.

Although it is important to have high strength of each of fiber and matrix, interface between fiber and matrix is most important. If NaCl water penetrates the interface, that area will be weak. So experiment about increasing interfacial strength is in process. In this study, the change of properties by mechanical, interfacial and micromechanical tests was observed after NaCl and aging treatment. The changes in mechanical properties of glass fiber were investigated using single-fiber tensile test. Interfacial properties between glass fiber and epoxy resin were evaluated using nondestructive acoustic emission (AE) and micromechanical test applied to fatigue test. Through change of fatigue properties, relative interfacial properties were evaluate. In conclusion, glass fiber diameter decreased and the reduction of mechanical and interfacial was observed with NaCl solution and aging treatment.

ITO (Indium Tin oxide)는 비화학 양론적 조성을 띄는 n-type 반도체 특성이 있으며 가시광 영역(380~780 nm)의 파장에 대한 높은 광 투과도(>85%)를 가지며 비교적 높은 전도도(${\sim}10^4/{\Omega}-cm$)를 갖고 화학적 안정성이 우수하여 투명전극 박막으로 많이 사용되어왔다. 또한, PET film은 전기절연성, 내후성이 우수하고, 85%의 투과율을 보이는 특성에 의하여 Flexible display의 기판으로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이와 같은 PET film에 ITO를 증착하여 광 투과도와 전기전도도가 우수한 Flexible display의 투명전극으로 많은 연구 개발이 이루어지고 있다. Flexible ITO 박막의 특성을 향상하기 위해서는 $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 열처리 공정이 필요하지만, PET는 약 $200^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 열 변형이 일어나므로 열처리 공정이 어렵고 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 ITO/PET film에서 PET film의 변형 없이 ITO 박막의 표면에 전자빔 형태로 조사하여 박막의 물성을 개선하는 연구가 진행되고 있다 [1]. 본 연구에서는 ITO/$SiO_2$가 증착된 PET film에 전자빔을 조사하여 ITO 박막의 물성 변화를 관찰하였고, 전자빔 에너지 변화 및 전자빔 조사 시간에 따라 ITO film의 전기적, 광학적 특성 변화를 분석하였다. 구조적 특성은 XRD (X-ray diffraction), 전기적 특성은 4-point probe, Hall measurement를 이용하였으며, 가시광영역의 광 투과도는 UV-Vis spectrometer로 측정하였다. 전기 광학적 특성 변화는 Figure of Merit (FOM) 수치로 분석하였다. 이 실험으로 PET film에 직접적인 열을 가하지 않으면서 ITO 박막의 표면에 전자빔을 조사 하여, 박막의 전기전도도 및 광 투과율, 결정성 향상 등을 관찰할 수 있었다.
