The microstructures of NATM were examined by SEM, FT-IR spectra, tensile properties, mole % of [NCO/OH], and particle size analyzer. Growing concerns in the environment-friendly industries have led to the development of solvent-free formulations that can be cured. We had synthesized NATM(New Austria Tunnel Method) resin having the ability to protect stainless steel against corrosion. Comparing with general NATM resin and coatings, this resin that synthesized with polyurethane and epoxy was highly stronger in intensity and longer durability. Hybrid resin was composed of polyols, MDI, epoxy, silicone surfactant, catalyst and crosslink agent, and fillers. Moreover, fillers such as fume silica not only accelerated the curing rate but also improved the physical property as thermal barriers. The rigid segments of synthetic resin in mechanical properties were due to fume silica and the increase the mole% of [NCO/OH] for corrosion protection. In conclusion, the hybrid resin microstructure with crosslink agent and fume silica are good material for thermosetting coating of metal substrates such as stainless steel.

NCO-terminated prepolymers were synthesized by reacting carbonate-type polyol(PTMCG)($M_w=1,000$ and 2,000) with MDI and N-methyldiethanolamine, as a chain extender. Carbonate-type polyurethane containg zwitterionic group was prepared by reacting the prepolymer with 1,3-propane sultone. From the IR and NMR spectra of model reactions, it was known that the ionization occurred under the same condition. The structure of zwitterionic carbonate-type polyurethane(ZPU) therefore could be confirmed from the model reactions. Glass transition temperature(Tg) ranged between $-15{\sim}-30^{\circ}C$ from the thermal data. Tg was between $-15{\sim}-18^{\circ}C$ for a series of ZPU10 samples and between $-25{\sim}-26^{\circ}C$ for a series of ZPU20 polymers. Tensile strength increased with mole ratio of ionic content. On the contrary, elongation was rather dropped with mole ratio of ionic content. ZPU10-30 having better tensile strength and less elongation was selected as a membrane for the concentration of ethanol aqueous solution through pervaporation. To obtain the better selectivity, it was crosslinked with HMDI. In the swelling test, it showed the higher swelling degree at around 50wt% ethanol concentration due to the plastization effect of ethanol. To optimize the separation capacity, two operating factors-feed concentration and temperature-were considered. The overall separation capacity was as follows : separation factor, 2~83.2 ; the flux, $25.4{\sim}58.8g/m^2hr$.

석탄화력발전소의 CO2배출량 감소와 고효율, 대용량화로 인해 초초임계압(USC:Ultra Super Critical) 화력발전소의 건설이 증가하고 있다. USC 발전소는 효율향상을 위한 증기온도와 압력의 상승 때문에 보일러 고온고압부에 기존의 소재에 비해 고온강도와 내산화성의 재료물성이 향상된 신소재 적용이 불가피하다. 특히 사용된 신소재 중에서 보일러 본체를 구성하는 수냉벽관(Water wall), 과열기와, 재열기용 튜브 및 후육부인 헤더와 배관재로 기존의 2.25Cr-1Mo강을 개량한 2.25Cr-1.6W계 내열강이 적용되고 있다. 2.25Cr-1.6W강은 SMI와 MHI가 공동개발한 소재로 1995년 튜브제품이, 1999년에 단조, 파이프재, 플레이트제품이 ASME code case로 등재되었고, 2009년 ASME code case 2199-4로 개정되어 사용 중이다. 이 소재는 2.25Cr-1Mo강에 고온강도 개선을 위해 석출강화효과가 있는 V과 Nb을 첨가하였고, 탄화물의 열적안정성과 고용강화효과 증대를 위해 W을 첨가하였다. 그리고 제작성과 용접성 및 재료의 인성 향상을 위해 B첨가와 C함량을 낮추었다. 합금성분의 첨가와 조정에 의해 고온강도는 개선되었지만, 보일러 설치 및 보수를 위한 용접과정에서 용접금속과 CGHAZ(Coarse Grain HAZ)에서 용접균열이 발생하였다. 대부분의 용접균열은 용접결함이나 고온 혹은 저온균열이 아닌 2.25Cr-1.6W계강의 강도 개선을 위해 첨가한 V과 Nb이 용접후열처리 도중 입내에 MX형태의 미세석출로 입내를 강화시킴으로서 발생한 재열균열 민감성 증대에 기인된 것으로 판단된다. 이에 본 연구에서 용접 및 후열처리 과정에서 용접금속과 HAZ에서 발생하는 용접금속의 응력분포를 전산해석을 통해 확인하고 실제 후육파이프 용접부에서 잔류응력을 측정해 비교하였다. 용접부 응력분포는 SYSWELD 프로그램을 사용해 해석을 수행하였고, 발전소 실배관재의 용접부 응력측정은 수평부 측정이 용이하도록 지그를 부착한 Potable 잔류응력측정기를 사용해 Hole Drilling Method(HDM)를 적용하여 잔류응력을 측정하였다. 해석 결과 CGHAZ부위의 잔류응력이 용접금속과 기타 부위에 비해 높은 응력분포를 나타냈으며, 이는 CGHAZ와 용접용융선 부근에서 균열이 발생하는 실제값과 일치하는 결과를 보였다. 실제 배관재 용접부에서 측정한 잔류응력값은 항복응력의 약 50% 이하 응력값을 나타냈다. 배관 구조에 기인한 시스템응력의 영향을 제거하기 위해 배관재 용접부를 중심으로 양끝단을 절단 후 용접부에서 측정한 응력은 항복응력 대비 25%수준의 낮은값을 보였다. 그러나 배관재가 장기간 고온환경에 노출되었고 용접금속 내부의 균열이 발생한 상태에서 측정하였기 때문에 용접잔류응력은 상당부분 해소되어 상대적으로 낮은 응력값이 얻어진 것으로 판단된다.

Copolyester resins for the coil coating process of aluminium and steel strip were synthesized and their thermal properties, molecular weight and solvent solution characteristics were examined. Copolyesters were obtained by two step reactions. The first step was to prepare bishydroxyethyl terephthalate (BHET), bishydroxyneopentyl terephthalate (BHNPT), bishydroxyethyl isophthalate (BHEI), bishydroxyneopentyl sebacate (BHNPS), bishydroxyneopentyl adipicate (BHNPA) and bishydroxyethyl adipicate (BHEA) oligomers by esterification reactions. The second step was the polycondensation reaction utilizing those oligomers to obtain relatively high molecular weight copolyesters (Mw = 30,000~59,000 g/mol) as measured by GPC. These copolyesters were amorphous polymers as shown by DSC without $T_m$ peaks probably due to the kink structure introduced by BHET oligomer and relatively large free volume by bulky BHNPT and BHNPS oligomers. The copolyester samples with half of BHET oligomer substituted by BHNPT while keeping BHEI (0.3 mole) and BHNPS (0.1 mole) ratio constant showed glass transition temperature above $40^{\circ}C$ and good solubility in toluene both at low ($-5^{\circ}C$) temperature and room temperature.

Co-polyimide membranes were prepared by two-step polymerization using semi-alicyclic 5-(2,5-dioxotetrahydrofuryl)-3-methyl-cyclohexene-1,2-dicarboxylic anhydride (DOCDA) with five diamines such as 2,5-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene diamine (2M), 2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3-phenylene diamine (3M), 1,5-naphthalene diamine (NDA), 4,4-diaminodiphenyl methane (MDA), 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether (ODA). Synthesized co-polyimides were characterized by FT-IR, viscosity, solubility, DSC, TGA and gas permeation properties, compared with 6FDA-based co-polyimides. All co-polyimides had the intrinsic viscosity of 0.32~0.58 and excellent solubility in various solvents. DOCDA-based co-polyimides had thermal stability over $400^{\circ}C$ although those were lower than 6FDA-based co-polyimides. Gas permeabilities of the copolyimide membranes were measured for $CO_2$ and $CH_4$ at room temperature and presented the trade-off relationship.

This study aims to provide the physicochemical properties of three kinds of organo­smectites which can be diversely used in industries. Some properties of them were compared with Na­smectite. Three kinds of organo­smectites such as Hexadecyltrimethylammonium(HDTMA), Benzyldimethyltetradecylammonium(BDTDA), and Cetylpyridinium(CP) exchanged smectites were manufactured for this study. Three types of organo­smectites showed the alkaline character(pH 9), very low swelling property and viscosity, and a fast flocculation behavior because of strong hydrophobic property in contrast to hydrophilic Na­smectite. Three organo­smectites showed the strong interlayer expansion with basal spacing from $19\AA$ to $23\AA$ compared with the Na­smectite of about 12 $\AA$. Organic cations such as HDTMA, BDTDA, and CP exchanged into smectite were completely decomposed in the temperature range from $250^{\circ}C$ to $400^{\circ}C$. Generally, three organo­smectites showed the similar mineralogical, physicochemical and thermal properties. But their properties are quite different from Na­smectite. Considering economically, CP exchanged smectite would be used for the diverse utilization field in the future time.

Charcoal burning in the process of manufacture and ordinary use often release many constituent chemical species. As a result of open burning, the chemical composition as well as the physical properties of original material changes through the modification of surface properties of charcoal. Surface modification could be more responsible toward the outside elements for surface adsorption, it becomes easy to adsorb more toxic elements through surface adsorption. In this study, four kinds of commercially available charcoal were studied against the chemical and thermal stability along with the heavy metals and organic hazardous substances. Thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry, from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$, were performed to study the weight loss and the changes in the behavior of those substances. According to TGA analysis, about 10% of weight loss was happened before $200^{\circ}C$. It was found that related weight loss of this temperature region may responsible to the gas phase organic matter. Natural charcoal, K1 and C1 show 15% of loss during the reaction heated to $400^{\circ}C$, while the artificial charcoal K2, C2 show the weight loss of about 20% was found. This is consistent with the main organic matter and VOC analysis results shown. Chemical composition based on the x-ray diffraction analysis was carried out. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals the existence of chemical additive in the forms of $Ba(NO_3)_2$, $BaCO_3$, and $NaNO_3$.

Experiment has been performed to investigate the thermal and magnetic properties of Mn-ferrite by electrolysis. Using the 0.2%C mild steel as soluble anode and SUS 304 stainless steel as cathode, Mn-ferrite could be made from the sulfuric acid leaching of the wasted manganese dry cell and $MnSO_4$reagent by electrolysis. As the result of X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis and magnetic measurement, Mn-ferrite was the spinel type in $Mn_{x}Fe_{3-x}O_4$ (X=1), the weight loss rate of $Mn_{x}Fe_{3-x}O_4$ were linearly increased up to the $200^{\circ}C$. Ms, Mr and Hc values were decreased with increasing Mn content and heating temperature. When Mn-ferrite was formed by $MnCl_2$reagent electrolysis, Ms values were higher than those formed from the sulfuric acid leaching of the wasted manganese dry cell and $MnSO_4$reagent by electrolysis. In Mn-ferrite, which was formed from the sulfuric acid leaching of the wasted manganese dry cell by electrolysis, Ms and Mr values were higher, Hc values were lower than which was formed by $MnSO_4$ reagent electrolysis at $200^{\circ}C\;and\;300^{\circ}C, while the same values at $100^{\circ}C$. The shape of particles was spherical type, the sizes of them were about $0.1{\mu}m$ sub-micron in $MnSO_4$reagent electrolysis, $0.5{\mu}m$ in the sulfuric acid leaching of the wasted manganese dry cell by electrolysis.

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)-reinforced poly(ethylene-co-ethyl acrylate) (EEA) nanocomposites were prepared by both melt and solution mixing methods. The mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties were investigated as a function of type and loading of CNT. The tensile strength and modulus increased, while elongation at break decreased with increasing MWCNT content. The hollow-type MWCNT showed an improved tensile strength and elongation at break compared with a conventional MWCNT. The thermal degradation temperature was increased by around $40^{\circ}C$ with increasing the amount of MWCNT. The melt-mixed composites showed the highest volume resistivity. In the case of solution-mixed composites, the conventional MWCNT was estimated to show much lower volume resistivity than that of hollow MWCNT. The number and length of extruded CNT onto the fractured surface increased by both increasing the content of CNT and employing the tensile strain to the sample. The melt-mixed specimens showed much smaller number and shorter length of extruded CNT.

It is essential that second order nonlinear optical materials have low optical propagation losses in the wavelengths of second harmonic generation for practical applications in waveguides. Three dipolar chromophores substituted with nitro, cyano, and alkyl sulfone as an electron withdrawing group were prepared. The UV-Vis absorption spectra of the cyano and alkylsulfone chromophores showed a blue-shift compared to the nitro chromophore. The introduction of oxadiazole segment in the chromophore structure led to similar spectral shift. The blue-shift can produce low optical loses at second harmonics. The chromophores were successfully attached to a polyimide, yielding side chain polymers. The nonlinear optical property of the prepared optical polymers was determined by measuring electro-optic coefficient at 1.55 mm. The polymers exhibited high glass transition temperature of over $185^{\circ}C$ and thermal stability to $300^{\circ}C$ through differential scanning calorimeter analysis and thermal gravimetric analysis.
