Optimization of process parameters in polymer extrusion is an important task to reduce manufacturing cost. To determine the optimum values of the process parameters, it is essential to find their influence on the elongation of polymer breathable thin film. The significance of six important process parameters namely, extruder cylinder temperature, extruder speed, extruder dies temperature, cooling roll temperature, stretching ratio, stretching roll temperature on breathable film elongation of polymer extrusion was determined. Moreover, this paper presents the application of Taguchi method and analysis of variance(ANOVA) for maximization of the breathable film elongation influenced by extrusion parameters. The optimum parameter combination of extrusion process was obtained by using the analysis of signal-to-noise ratio. The conclusion revealed that stretching ratio were the most influential factor on the film elongation. The best results of film elongation were obtained at lower stretching ratio.

This study examines the effects of the discretization schemes on numerical solutions of viscoelastic fluid flows. For this purpose, a temporally evolving mixing layer, a two-dimensional vortex pair interacting with a wall, and a turbulent channel flow are selected as the test cases. We adopt a fourth-order compact scheme (COM4) for polymeric stress derivatives in the momentum equations. For convective derivatives in the constitutive equations, the first-order upwind difference scheme (UD) and artificial diffusion scheme (AD), which are commonly used in the literature, show most stable and smooth solutions even for highly extensional flows. However, the stress fields are smeared too much and the flow fields are quite different from those obtained by higher-order upwind difference schemes for the same flow parameters. Among higher-order upwind difference schemes, a third-order compact upwind difference scheme (CUD3) shows most stable and accurate solutions. Therefore, a combination of CUD3 for the convective derivatives in the constitutive equations and COM4 for the polymeric stress derivatives in the momentum equations is recommended to be used for numerical simulation of highly extensional flows.

저밀도폴리에틸렌과 나일론6의 블렌드가 용융압출기의 사용에 의해 제조되었다. 제 조된 비상용 블랜드의 유변학적, 형태학적 분석을 통하여 이들사이의 상관관계를 조사하였 다. 전단속도, 계면장력, 용융점도, 분산상의 농도들에 대한 분산상의 크기의 의존성을 평가 하였다. 한편 신장유동에 의한 모폴로지 변화를 조사하기 위하여 기제조된 블렌드를 사용하 여 용융방사를 하였다. 이러한 방식실험으로부터 본연구에 사용된 저밀도 폴리에틸렌과 나 일론6는 분산상과 연속상의 신장점도의 상대적 크기에 무관하게 피브릴화가 되어 방사 연신 비의 증가에 의해 매우 가는 분산된 피브릴을 얻을수 있었다.

두 종류의 열방성 액정고분자와 세종류의 엔지니어링 고분자와의 블렌드들에 대해 유변학적/형구학적 연구를 한 결과 블렌드의 유동거동과 물성이현저히 다른 두 그룹으로 나 뉘어짐을 발견하였다. 즉 연속상의 조업온도가 분산상의 전이온도보다 높은 그룹A에 속하 는 블렌드의 전단점도/신장점도는 액정고분자를 첨가할수록 첨가할수록 감소하고 블렌드의 신장점도는 연속상의 그것처럼 신장변형률속도가 커질수록 증가하였다. 또한 분산상의 점도 가 연속상의 그것보다 작아서 분산상이 미세섬유구조의 형태로 존재하였다. 이와 대조적으 로 연속상의 조업온도가 액정고분자의 전이온도보다 낮은 그룹 B에 속하는 블렌드는 반대 의 거동을 보였고 분산상의 미세섬유구조가 존재하지 않았다. 그러나 연신변형이 주가 되는 방사공정을 거치면 그룹A와 B블렌드 공히 분산상이 비슷한 미세섬유구조의 형태로 존재하 고 기계적 성질도 크게 향상되는 결과를 보였다. 이는 블렌드내의 신장유동이 분산상의 섬 유구조형상에 결정적 역할을 하기 때문이라 판단된다.

Effects of multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) type and flow type (shear and elongational flow) on the electrical conductivity of polycarbonate (PC)/ MWCNT nanocomposites were investigated. Two different MWCNTs produced a huge difference in electrical conductivity in an injection molded PC/MWCNT nanocomposite. It was observed that MWCNTs having a higher aspect ratio provide much lower electrical conductivity in injection molded PC/MWCNT nanocomposites while the conductivities of compression molded samples from two different MWCNTs were the same. We found that this is due to a difference in the deformability of the two MWCNTs. As the aspect ratio of the MWCNT increases, the orientation of MWCNT by the external force becomes easier and the conductive path diminishes. Consequently the conductivity of the nanocomposites decreases. Nanocomposite samples prepared at a higher extensional rate and shear rate showed lower electrical conductivity. This is also attributed to the flow induced orientation and reduced conductive path of the MWCNTs. The experimental results were discussed in relation to variation in the tube-tube contact due to the change of the MWCNT orientation.

Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flow for which the drag is reduced by using polymer additives have been performed by a pseudo-spectral method. The Reynolds number based on the friction velocity and half-channel height is 395, and the polymeric stresses due to the polymer additives are evaluated using the FENE-P (finitely extensible nonlinear elastic-Peterlin) model. The numerical results show that the drag reduction rate is significantly affected by the parameters used in the FENE-P model, such as the maximum extensibility and relaxation time of the polymer molecules. The turbulence data for both low- and high-drag reduction regimes are analyzed. In addition, the effects of FENE-P model parameters on the flow characteristics have been investigated for the same drag reduction rate due to the polymer additives. Finally, the present DNS results have been used to verify the correlation between rheological parameters and the extent of drag reduction, which was suggested by Li et al. (2006).

스템핑용 냉연강판의 기계적 성질은 온도에 따라 변하므로 금형재의 열적 특성은 성형의 성공여부에 영향을 미칠 수 있으며 재질선정에 있어 중요한 인자의 하나이다. 금형재질이 성형에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 차체의 패널용으로 사용되는 강판에 대하여 상온 및 고온에서의 인장시험을 하였으며 구상흑연주철과 회주철을 중심으로 열특성을 조사하였다. 연신율과 인장 강도의 온도 의존성에 대한 검토와 함께 금형재료에 따른 열전달 특성을 분석하여 열특성 측면에서는 회주철이 구상흑연 주철보다 더 적합 하며 열전도율이나 비열 등의 열특성치도 금형재 선정에 중요한 인자중 하나라는 결론을 얻었다.

Superplastic forming processes by characteristic of low flow stress and high elongation have advantages to reducing on production cost and weight because of the product of complex form could be made in one part. However superplastically termed part has a characteristic of non-uniform thickness distribution along forming direction. Especially. since the thickness distribution affects on mechanical properties of product. the uniform thickness is very important. There are two solution procedure of implicit and explicit procedure to analyze the superplastic forming. In this study to analyze the thickness distribution two kinds of commercial programs of DEFORM and PAM-STAMP which implicit and explicit code are used respectly. The results from the two Programs were compared with eath other As a result implicit code were more suitable than explicit code for superplastic forming analysis.

Different pass strains and rolling temperatures were applied to understand the effects of pass strain and rolling temperature on flow stress and flow strain of AA5083 alloy. The specimens were prepared by conventional casting process followed by hot rolling. Hot torsion tests were conducted at temperature ranges of 350 to 52$0^{\circ}C$ under a strain rate of 1.0/sec. During the process, hot-restoration mechanisms, dynamic recovery(DRV) or dynamic recrystallization (DRX), of the AA5083 alloy were analyzed from the flow curves and deformed microstructures. It was found that while the rolling strain per pass and rolling temperature have little effect on the folw stress, they have significant effect on the failure strain. The DRV was responsible for the hot restoration mechanism of the hot-rolled specimen. heavily elongated grains and small subgrains containing dislocations were obtaned during the hot deformation. This was due to the presence of Al6Mn precipitate in the alloy.
