에폭시수지와 CFRP 복합체 구조물의 경화공정 중에 발생하는 잔류응력은 구조물의 기계적물성에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 잔류응력을 낮추기 위해 여러 가지 방법들이 발표되고 있다. 이연구에서는 잔류응력을 낮추는 방법으로 잔류응력의 발새mechanism을 이해하고 반 응속도식과 여러 가지 기초물성을 기초로 한 computer simulation pro-gram을 이용하여 에 촉시수지와 복합체 구조물의 잔류응력을 최소화하는 경화공정을 찾는 연구를 진행하였다. 경화과정에서는 대부분의 경화온도가 구조물의 유리전이온도보다 높기 때문에 잔류응력이 발생하지 않고 대부분의 잔류응력은 냉각과정에서 발생하였다. 잔류응력을 정량화하는 방법 으로 구조물의 표면이 유리전이온도에 도달하였을때 내부 비체적분초를 상대적인 잔류응력 이라 간주하였다. 컴퓨터모사에 의해 최종경화온도와 냉각속도를 바꾸면서 잔류응력을 모사 한 결과 최종경화온도가 낮을수록, 냉각속도가 작을수록 잔류응력이 작게 발생하였다.

Generally, polymer mortar made with unsaturated polyester(UP) resin has a high curing shrinkage. This is an inadequate as repair material and construction products that have been widely used for years recently. To overcome these problems, polymer researchers and engineers have used shrinkage-reducing additives, which are usually specific thermoplastic polymers. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of shrinkage-reducing additive on the curing shrinkage and strengths of UP mortar. UP mortars are prepared with expanded polystyrene(EPS) ratio in styrene monomer(SM), (EPS/PS, PS=EPS+SM), and the ratio of total polystyrene resin(PS) to UP resin, (PS/UP). And it is tested for viscosity of UP resin, slump-flow, working life, flexural and compressive strengths, and curing shrinkage tests. From the test results, viscosity of resin for UP mortar increases with increasing PS content. Curing shrinkage of UP mortar is considerably smaller than that of plain UP mortar, nevertheless, reduction in the strengths is not recognized according to adding PS resin. In this study, we can obtain the optimum mix proportions of UP mortar using PS resin which made of waste expanded polystyrene.

The effects of 1 wt.% N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate (BPH) as a thermal latent initiator and blend compositions composed of 0, 5, 10, 20 and 40 wt.% of phenol-novolac resin to epoxy resin were investigated in terms of cure kinetics, thermal stabilities and rheological properties. Thermal latent properties of BPH were measured from the conversion as a function of reaction temperature on a dynamic DSC. This cationic BPH system turned out to be an effective thermal latent initiator in the epoxy-phenol curing system. And the increase of phenol-novolac resin concentration led to the decrease in the latent temperature and to the increase of cure activation energy ($E_a$) of the blend system. The thermal stability and activation energy ($E_t$) for decomposition, gel-time and activation energy ($E_c$) for cross-linking from rheometer increased within the composition range of 20~40 wt.% of phenol-novolac resin. This implies that the three-dimensional cross-linking may take place among hydroxyl group within phenol resin, epoxide ring within epoxy resin and BPH.

In order to improve the mechanical properties of unsaturated polyester (UPE) resins, the UPE resins with different glycol molar ratios were prepared. The effects of molar ratios of the UPE resins on the curing behaviors and mechanical properties were investigated. The microgel reaction mechanism was employed to characterize the system. It was found that the final conversion increased with increasing NPG molar ratios, and the conversion at the peak of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) thermogram appeared to decrease with increasing NPG molar ratios. The flexural strength, tensile modulus, water resistance, and infiltration increased with increasing NPG content, but the tensile strength, tensile elongation, and flexural modulus decreased. Among the UPE resins prepared from the glycols with the molar ratios (PG/NPG) of 0.5/0.5, 0.25/0.75, those of laminated composites plates showed better mechanical properties.

Physicochemical properties of HBA epoxy resins were controlled by varying hardener mixture and reactive diluent to improve applicability for stone conservation. The epoxy risen comprises hydrogenated Bisphenol-A based epoxide (HBA), fast curing agent (FH), slow curing agent poly(propyleneglycol)bis(2- aminopropylether) (SH) and difunctional polyglycidyl epoxide (DPE). Talc was used as an inorganic additive. The changes in viscosity and temperature during curing reactions depending on the composition of the epoxy resins were investigated. Additionally, bending, tensile and adhesive strengths were measured to identify the effective mechanical strength in stone conservation. Finally various compositions of epoxy resin/inorganic additives were developed for stone conservation by controlling cure kinetics and mechanical properties.

This paper investigates physical properties, the electrical and mechanical characteristics of the epoxy resin with different curing methods and postcuring conditions at room temperature or cryogenic temperature (LN2). According to the results in this paper, first, it is found that the physical properties, electrical and mechanical characteristics of the epoxy resin are largely affected by the interior reaction temperature on the curing. Thus, in the fabrication of the sample, several excellent characteristics of the sample are obtained by controlling the interior reaction temperature of the epoxy resin. Second, the sample having optimal electrical and mechanical characteristics is obtained for the repetitive post-curing method at 100c in view point of the post-curing conditions of the epoxy resin. Third, it appears that tan and characteristics at LN2 temperature are about half of those at room temperature. Fourth, it appears that the dielectric strength of the epoxy resin at LN2 temperature is higher by about 0.6-1.0 MV/cm than that at room temperature. The heat-aging of the epoxy resin due to the micro-defect and excess fever-movement have been noticed to affect dielectric strength at LN2 temperature more significantly than at room temperature.

In the present study, the effect of milled glass powder and liquid-type nitrile rubber (NBR) on the thermal stability of phenolic resin and the dynamic mechanical properties of glass braid/phenolic composites has been investigated by means of thermogravimetric analysis and dynamical mechanical analysis. It was found that both milled glass power and NBR filled in the waterborne phenolic resin significantly influenced the thermal stability of phenolic resins and the storage modulus and tan delta of the composites. The presence of glass powder increased the thermal stability of the phenolic resin, whereas the presence of NBR resulted in the weight loss in the specific temperature range. The thermal stability of the phenolic resins without and with the fillers was dependent not only on the cure temperature but also on the cure time. The variation of the storage modulus and tan ${\delta}$ of strip-type glass braid/phenolic composites was also influenced with the introduction of glass powder and NBR to the phenolic matrix as well as by the cure conditions given.

The di-functional epoxy resins, i.e., diglycidylether of bisphenol A(DGEBA) and diglycidylethere of bisphenol F(DGEBF) were initiated by cationic catalyst, i.e., benzylquinoxalinium hexafluoroantimonate(BQH) using electron-beam(EB) technique. And the effect of structure of DGEBA and DGEBF on thermal stabilities and cure behaviors was investigated. According to the experimental results, the decomposed activation energy based on Horowitz-Metzger method was higher in the case of DGEBA, but intergral procedural decomposition temperature(IPDT) of DGEBA was lower than DGEBF. This could be interpreted in terms of high crosslink density resulted from hydroxyl bond of DGEBF backbone. It was confirmed in increasing the hydroxyl band at $7000\;cm^{-1}$ and $5235\;cm^{-1}$ using near-infrared spectroscopy(NIRS).

This paper presents the cure kinetics studies on the cure reaction of thermosetting resin. Above all, change in degree of cure and specific heat capacity according to temperature are observed using DSC and MDSC. The results are analyzed by cure kinetics and specific heat capacity model. Glass transition temperature was also measured to apply to the specific heat capacity model. Model parameters were gained from the modeling result. As a result, behavior of specific heat capacity can be calculated mathematically.
