A study of the improvement in the impact strength is required to apply Nylon 66/silicate composites as an automobile material. Nylon 66/silicate composites were prepared using a twin screw extruder in case of a silicate treatment by ${\gamma}$-APS (S-silicate) and the addition of an octene ${\alpha}$ olefin grafted by maleic anhydride (PE-g-MAH). The chemical structure of the silane treated silicate was measured by Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The chemical reaction was confirmed by the decrease in the FT-IR intensity of the OH stretching vibration. The thermal properties, intercalation structure, and Izod impact strength were measured by DSC, TGA, XRD, and Izod impact tester. There was no significant effect on the degradation temperature of the Nylon66/silicate composite, but the crystallization temperature and crystallinity increased slightly in the case of the Nylon66/silicate composites. This suggests that the additives act as heterogeneous nuclei on the Nylon 66 matrix. The Izod impact test indicated that S-silicate enhanced the impact performance by up to 24%.

Porous layered carbon was prepared by interlayer pyrolysis of pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO) using layered silicate template and successive dissolution of template. Particle morphology was plate type with d-spacing of 0.78~0.82 nm and constant interlayer space. Specific surface area was $30{\sim}576m^2/g$ depending upon template type, mixing ratios, pyrolysis temperature and pyrolysis time.

The formation of silica sol from sodium silicate solution and the growth of silica sols were investigated in this study. The $SiO_2$ content of 2% in sodium silicate solution was proper to oxidize sodium silicate with sulfuric acid. After the removal of sodium ions in sodium silicate solution, the pH of silicate solution had to be controlled above 9 for a stable silicate solution. The silica sol, which size is about 10 nm, could be prepared by heating the mixed solution of sodium silicate and silicate solution removed sodium ions at pH 10 and 80. And the silica sol grew into about 50 nm as silicate solution was added to silica sol solution.

Polysulfone/organophilic layered silicate nanocomposites were prepared in the range of 0.25 to 9 wt% of organophilic-layered silicate by solution blend. Nano-hybridized films were cast from the blend solution. Exfoliation and intercalation of the polysulfone/organophiliclayered silicate nanocomposite films were confirmed by an X-ray diffractometer and a transmission electron microscope. Surface morphologies of polysulfone/organophilic layered silicate nanocomposite films were determined by a scanning electronic microscope and an atomic force microscope. When the organophilic layered silicate was added more than 1.5 wt%, the surface roughness (RMS) was rapidly increased because clusters of intercalated organophilic layered silicate particles existed on the polysulfone/organophilic-layered silicate film surface. Surface tension revealed an upward tendency over the contents of 1.5 wt% organophilic layered silicate in polysulfone/organophilic layered silicate nanocomposite. The change of surface morphology in polysulfone/organophilic layered silicate nanocomposite were affected by nano scale dispersed and intercalated organophilic layered silicate particles.

Silica sol was prepared from the mixture of sodium silicate solution and oxidized silicate solution in which sodium had been removed by sol-gel process. The properties of sodium silicate solution and silicate solution thus prepared were characterized by yellow silicomolydate method. Moreover, the formation and growth of silica sol from sodium silicate solution was investigated. Sodium silicate solution with 2% of $SiO_2$ contains 95% of reactive silicate, and 50% of reactive silicate participates sol-gel reaction. From the results of FT-IR analysis, it was found that the intensity of silanol bond decreased and the intensity of siloxane bond increased with increasing reaction temperature. Zeta potential of silica sol prepared at each condition was -40~-60 mV and it could be known that silica sol in this study was well dispersed. The silica sol with 5~10 nm size could be prepared by heating the mixed solution of sodium silicate and silicate solution. And the silica sol grew into about 20 nm as silicate solution was added to silica sol solution.

The goal of this research was to identify the impact of silicate polymerization on the formation of insoluble aluminiumsilicate salts which could be a cause of irreversible fouling in the membrane process by lab-scale test. For this, the amount and characteristics of precipitates that were formed in six samples with different Al and Si concentration were analyzed. And the particles was also observed by SEM-EDS(Scanning Electron Microscope - Electron Dispersion Spectrophotometer) to compare morphology and ratio of Al and Si in each precipitates. Finally the reactive and nonreactive silicate contents in the solution and precipitates were analyzed to calculate silicate form content in each fraction. The amount of precipitates was in proportion to the total concentration of both element in solution. And the amount of insoluble particle that was not dissolved in the acid solution was recorded the highest in the sample 2 of which Si concentration was lower than the saturation concentration, 50 mg/L. The content of reactive silicate in precipitates was also recorded the highest value in sample 2 of which almost silicate form was reactive. When the silicate concentration is same, that value was recorded the highest in the sample with highest Al concentration. The SEM morphology of the precipitates was similar to that of Aluminiumhydroxide and the insoluble precipitates was not dissolved in acidic solution with pH 2.7 was able to observed only in sample 2. The ratio of Al and Si in the precipitates was ranged $0.48\sim3.14$, thai of sample 2 was recorded the highest value, 3.14. It is concluded that the insoluble aluminiumsilicate could be easily formed in the solution of which silicate exist as a reactive form and coexisting Al is sufficient.

층상실리케이트 나노입자를 포함한 에폭시수지인 나노콤포지트를 장시간 트리절연내력을 평가하기 위하여 제조하였다. 층살실리케이트를 포함하지 않은 경우보다 월등하게 긴 트리잉파괴 시간을 나타내었다. 더욱이 층상실리케이트 나노입자와 에폭시수지 계면의 효과를 연구하기위해 silane coupling agent을 나노입자에 표면처리하여 장시간 트리잉 파괴에 초점을 맞추었다. 에폭시수지와 층상실리케이트 나노입자사이 커플링 의한 계면결합은 단시간 절연파괴강도와 장시간 트리잉파괴 시간에 중요한 역할을 하고 있음을 알았다. 그 결과는 침선단에 교류 전계강도가 781.42kV/mm(교류 15kV, 침선단 곡률반경 $5{\mu}m$) 절연파괴시간을 측정한 결과 나노입자가 충진된 경우 트리개시시간이 24,726분이었고, 파괴에 이르는 시간은 29,213분이 걸렸다. 반면에 실란을 처리하지 않은 경우 파괴시간은 11,591분 이었다. 충진된 층살실리케이트 나노입자의 함량은 3wt%로 하였으며, 이와같은 파괴시간 지연 결과의 향상이 152%향상된 결과는 계면의 결합력이 크게 향상되어 나타낸 경우로 사료된다.

Polypropylene (PP)-SEBS/silicate composites with PP content of 35, 40, and 45wt% were fabricated by melt compounding at $200^{\circ}C$, using lab scale Brabender mixer. The content of silicate was fixed at 5wt%. The thermal properties of the PP-SEBS/silicate composites were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The melting temperature of PP-SEBS compound decreased up to $141^{\circ}C$ with SEBS content. TGA result indicates an increase in degradation temperature when the silicate was added in the PP-SEBS compound. The rheological properties of the compounds were measured by dynamic Rheometer. PP-SEBS/silicate composite indicates higher shear thinning and elastic property than PP-SEBS compound. Van Gurp-Palmen analysis was applied in order to certify an increase in elasticity.

The buildings constructed with steel structure are coated with certified fire resistive material to resist from fire. All the building materials lose their initial performances as time passes by, so they need some maintenance. The Sprayed Fire Resistive Material (SFRM) also loses its performance and this performance loss of the SFRM is very important because fire resistance of buildings depends on SFRM. So this study was aimed to synthesis of alkali-silicates for SFRM and to evaluate the effect of alkali-silicates, K-silicates, Na-silicates and Li-silicates, by exchange of mole ratios as basic factors, tested solubility, intumescence ratios, thermal analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, fire-resistant and heat-resistant.
