The cure kinetics of a bisphenol A epoxy resin and polyoxypropylene diamine curing agent system are investigated in both dynamic and isothermal conditions by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). In dynamic experiments, the shift of exothermic peaks obtained at different heating rates is used to obtain activation energy of overall cure reaction based on the methods of Ozawa and Kissinger. Isothermal DSC data at different temperatures are fitted to an autocatalytic Kamal kinetic model. The kinetic model is in a good agreement with the experimental data in the initial stage of cure. A diffusion effect is incorporated to describe the later stage of cure, predicting the cure kinetics over the whole range of curing process. Also, dynamic mechanical analysis is performed to evaluate the storage modulus and average molecular weight between crosslinkages.

Understanding the strength characteristics of model ice is an important issue for model testing in an ice model basin to estimate the ship performance in ice. In particular, the mechanical properties of the model ice including elastic modulus, flexural strength and compressive strength are key consideration factors. In order to understand the characteristics of the model ice during warm-up phase at KRISO's ice model basin, the strength properties are tested in this study. The infinite plate-bending method, in-situ cantilever beam test and ex-situ uniaxial compressive test are conducted to determine the strength properties of model ice. The strength characteristics of the model ice are then analyzed in terms of the warm-up phase and seasonality. These results could be valuable to quality control of the model ice characteristics in KRISO's ice model basin and to better understand the variations in strength properties during the ice model tests.

In this study, the thermal degradation behavior of biomass during torrefaction was studied by thermogravimetric and byproduct gas analysis. Torrefaction temperature, time, and heating rate were $220{\sim}300^{\circ}C$, 110 min, and $10{\sim}30^{\circ}C/min$, respectively. The degradation rate of yellow poplar was 8.01~8.81% at $220^{\circ}C$ and 71.86~77.38% at $300^{\circ}C$ depending on heating rate. The degradation rate significantly increased at temperature over $240^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, degradation rate of larch was relatively low as 49.58~54.15% at $300^{\circ}C$. The activation energy of yellow poplar was 87.32~91.24 kJ/mol; these values did not significantly change with heating rate. The activation energy of larch was 83.85~91.60 kJ/mol. The major components of the gas generated during torrefaction were derived from hemicellulose. The component types and concentrations increased with torrefaction severity. High concentrations of furfural and acetic acid were detected during torrefaction of yellow poplar.

The pyrolysis characteristics of celluloses and plastics, which are the principal materials contributing to the municipal solid wastes(MSWs), was investigated with a thermal gravimetric analysis reaction system. The experiments were carried out in a nitrogen atmosphere in the temperature range of 400~900K at various experimental conditions. Also, a modified pyrolysis model for compressed MSWs has been proposed. Varing the heating rate to 20, 30, 40K/min, reaction orders of MSWs' main component were around 1.1~1.9, activation energies were 117~166kJ/mol for celluloses and 187~239kJ/mol for plastics. Char yield was proportional to the heating rate, particle size, and compressed ratio. The model proposed in this study, which is applying Arrhenius equation and thermodynamics, is closer to the experimental results than the conventional model.

The curing behaviors of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) with mercaptan hardener were studied by the comparison with amine-adduct type hardener. Curing behaviors were evaluated by DSC at dynamic and isothermal conditions. In the DSC, the dynamic experiments were based on the method of Kissinger's equation, and the isothermal experiments were fitted to the Kamal's kinetic model. Activation energy of epoxy/amine-adduct type hardener was ca. 40 kcal/mol. As the functional group of mercaptan hardener, -SH increased, on epoxy/mercaptan hardeners, the activation energies decreased from 28 to 19 kcal/mol. Epoxy/amine-adduct type hardener was initiated at $90^{\circ}C$ or higher. However, epoxy/mercaptan hardeners reduced the initiation temperatures below $80^{\circ}C$ and shortened the durations of curing reaction within 10 min. We found out that the reaction kinetics of epoxy with mercaptan hardener followed the autocatalytic reaction models, and the maximum reaction rates were shown at the conversions of 20~40%.

The effect of MoO$_3$ addition on the permeability of Mn-Zn ferrites was studied. 600 ppm, 800 ppm and 1,000 ppm of MoO$_3$ were added to the main composition after calcination. Ferrite cores were sintered at 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 3hrs, followed by cooling according to the equilibrium oxygen concentration. The initial permeability was about 8,000 with heating rate 5$^{\circ}C$/min for 3hrs without MoO$_3$ addition. When 600 ppm and 800 ppm of MoO$_3$ were added, the initial permeabilities, 13,200 and 13,550 were obtained, respectively. However, the sample with 1,000 ppm MoO$_3$ showed lower permeabilities because of abnormal grain growth. At the heating rate 1$0^{\circ}C$/min, the ferrite cores with 1,000 ppm MoO$_3$ demonstrated the highest initial permeability greater than 15,000, without exaggerated grain growth.

In this study, the optimization of carbonization conditions in manufacturing processes was performed to improve the absorption performance of sewage sludge based sorbent used for treating $H_2S$ out of all odorous substances generated by various environmental facilities. Adsorbents applied were manufactured from the sewage treatment plant under different carbonization conditions, such as temperature and heating rate, and the correlation between the adsorption performance and physical properties of the adsorbents was verified. As a result, the adsorption performance of sludge at $900^{\circ}C$ with a heating rate of $10^{\circ}C/min$ was the best, and the SEM and BET analysis revealed that specific surface area and characteristics of pore (size, volume) were major parameters for the adsorption. In addition, the effect of K ions used for improving the adsorption performance of the optimum carbonization condition sorbent was insignificant for the sewage sludge based sorbent.

본 연구에서는 코코넛 껍질로부터 제조한 활성탄을 열 및 산소-암모니아의 혼합가스로 전처리하여 표면의 특성 변화와 이산화황 흡착능에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 전처리한 활성탄으로 이산화황 흡착실험을 수행한 결과, 전처리한 활성탄은 기본 활성탄 시료보다 높은 흡착능력을 보였다. 본 연구의 전처리 실험에서는 산소와 암모니아를 주입하여 활성점을 제공하는 산소와 환원성 분위기를 조성하는 질소관능기를 도입하였다. 전처리 조건은 0∼25%의 암모니아와 473∼1273K의 온도이며 처리조건을 변화시킴으로써 표면 기능의 척도가 되는 세공구조와 원소조성 및 표면 관능기 등에 직접적인 영향을 주었다. 흡착능력은 고정층 반응기에서 전자 비틀림 저울로 이산화황 흡착량을 측정하여 비교하였고, 이 과정 중의 활성탄 표면의 특성변화를 원소분석, 승온탈착법, 산-염기 적정법, 주사현미경법 등의 분석 방법을 통해서 알아보았다. 그 결과, 이산화황의 최대 흡착 능력은 온도조건 973∼1173K에서 나타났다. 또한, 암모니아로 처리하지 않은 활성탄에 비하여 암모니아로 처리한 활성탄은 그 주입농도에 관계없이 이산화황의 흡착제거율을 약 48% 정도 향상시켰다.

This paper attempted to investigate the temperature characteristics and electrical conduction when low density polyethylene is irradiated. It was found that the log $\rho$ versus 1/T in irradiated polyethylene specimen resulted in different characteristics when it was heated upto above the melting point from when it was heated at the beginning stage. It was also found that the relation between the temperature and volume resistivity represented jumping phenomenon and that crystallization by thermal change was closely related to the fusion of crystalline region.

본 연구에서는 고령토, 유황, 탄산나트륨, 규석 및 송진을 원료로 하여 군청을 합성하였고, 그 반응 메카니즘을 조사하였다. 원료의 혼합시료는 군청의 중간 생성물인 녹색군청을 합성하기 위하여, 82$0^{\circ}C$에서 4시간 동안 소성하였다(승온율 2$^{\circ}C$/min). 합성된 녹색군청은 최종적으로 군청을 얻기 위해 50$0^{\circ}C$에서 산화처리하였다. 합성 과정에서 발생하는 반응 생성물 및 이들의 구조적 변화는 x선 회절 분석과 Raman Spectrum 분석에 의하여 평가하였다. 소성과정에서 황화나트륨은 50$0^{\circ}C$에서 생성되었고, NaAISiO$_{4}$는 62$0^{\circ}C$에서 형성되었다. 그리고, 녹색군청은 황화나트륨과 NaAISiO$_{4}$의 반응에 의하여 74$0^{\circ}C$부근에서 형성하기 시작하였다. 또한, 청색군청의 형성은 녹색군청 중에 잔존하던 황화타트륨의 산화로 방출되는 유황 원자에 기인하였다.
