In this study, the effect of thermal aging temperature on the weight loss, glass transition temperature, and morphology of epoxy adhesives cured with amine (D-230), amide (G-5022), and anhydride (HN-2200) was investigated. As a result, the weight loss of three specimens was increased with increasing the thermal aging temperature. The result was attributed to the thermal aging which was occurred at the surface of adhesive specimens at high aging temperature, resulting in increasing the weight loss of the specimens. According to the DSC result, the glass transition temperature of DGEBA/D-230 and DGEBA/G-5022 samples war increased as the aging temperature increased, whereas the glass transition temperature of DGEBA/HN-2200 samples was constant above aging temperature of $150^{\circ}C$ and aging tine of 7 days. The SEM result indicated that the surface of DGEBA/G-5022 specimen showed more rough topography than that of DGEBA/D-230 or DGEBA/HN-2200 specimen after thermal aging. This could be correlated with the result of weight loss.

This study conducted infrared (IR) thermography tests using pipe and plate specimens with artificial wall-thinning defects to find an optimal condition for IR thermography test on the wall-thinned nuclear piping components. In the experiment halogen lamp was used to heat the specimens. The distance between the specimen and the lamp and the intensity of halogen lamp were regarded as experimental parameter. When the distance was set to 1~2 m and the lamp intensity was above 60 % of full power, a single scanning of IR thermography detected all artificial wall-thinning defects, whose minimum dimension was $2{\Theta}=90^{\circ}$, d/t=0.5, and $L/D_o=0.25$, within the pipe of 500 mm in length. Regardless of the distance between the specimen and the lamp, the image of wall-thinning defect in IR thermography became distinctive as the intensity of halogen lamp increased. The detectability of IR thermography was similar for both plate and pipe specimens, but the optimal test condition for IR thermography depended on the type of specimen.

This study was carried out to evaluate the weathering durability of waterborne preservative (AAC, ACQ, CCA, CuAz) treated Japanese red pine (Pinus densiflora S. et Z.) sapwood samples by accelerated weathering, and to find out the factor of stability. When considered the color changes, weight losses, surface degradation, and microstructure changes due to weathering, ACQ-, CCA-, and CuAz-treated samples were durable against weathering; the weathering durability of AAC-treated samples was poor and similar to untreated controls. The lignin content in aqueous extracts collected from ACQ-, CCA-, and CuAz-treated samples during weathering was lower than that from untreated and AAC-treated ones. From these findings, we might concluded that weathering durability of ACQ-, CCA-, and CuAz-treated samples was enhanced by the fixation of preservative component(s) onto the lignin structure, which is very susceptible to weathering.

원자로 압력용기 저합금강들은 원자로 가동 중 중성자 조사에 의해 재질열화 (material degradation)가 발생한다. 그러므로 계속적인 재질열화의 평가는 발전소의 수명을 예측, 평가하기 위해서 매우 중요하다. 그러나 표준시편을 이용한 인장시험, 충격시험 및 파괴인성 시험법 등은 조사시편의 크기 및 수량에 제한이 따르고, 높은 방사능으로 인해 시험편의 취급에도 제약을 받게 된다. 따라서 소형시편을 이용한 재료의 손상평가기술의 필요성이 부각되었고, 소형펀치시험(small punch test, SP test)은 그 중 하나의 유용한 시험 방법이다.(중략)

Ultrasonic is a powerful nondestructive technique for getting the information of flaws and material properties of in-services facilities. We prepared 4 different 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V specimens by Isothermal aging at $630^{\circ}C$. We evaluated material degradation using ultrasonic parameters, velocity, attenuation and harmonic generation. Attenuation and nonlinear parameter derived from harmonic generation efficiency increased as degradation. Especially the second harmonic of the fundamental wave in the 1,820h aging material was observed to exceed 20dB more than that in the un-aged material. But velocity remained virtually the same for all specimens. We concluded that nonlinear parameter and attenuation are sensitive to material degradation, but velocity was not. It'll be a good parameter for evaluating the material degradation.

강재의 방식법 중 도장은 부식을 억제하는데 효과적이고 편리한 방법으로 선박 및 해양 강 구조물의 방식법으로 사용되고 있다. 한편, 강 구조물의 효율적인 유지관리를 위해서는 방식 도장의 도막 열화도를 평가하고 잔존 수명을 예측하여 최적 시기에 보수도장 혹은 재도장하는 것이 필요하다. 일반적으로 선박 및 해양구조물에 적용되는 도막의 방식 성능 평가 방법으로 해수 침지 시험, 염수 분무 시험, 옥외 폭로 시험 등이 있다. 그러나 이러한 시험들은 그 시험 방법에 따라서 정량적인 평가에 한계가 있음은 물론 장기간 소요되는 등 곤란한 문제점이 있다. 그러므로 선박 및 해양구조물을 비롯하여 교량, 각종 강 구조물의 도장 방식에 사용되는 방식용 도료의 성능을 단기간에 적절하게 평가할 수 있는 가속시험법이 제시되며 연구-사용되고 있다. 그 중 도막 방식 성능을 보다 효율적, 비파괴적, 정량적으로 평가할 수 있는 임피던스 분광법(EIS)과 같은 전기화학적 방법은 상대적으로 시험 기간을 크게 단축시킬 수 있고, 대상 방식 도장의 미세한 성능 차이도 분별 가능하다는 장점이 있다[1]. 따라서 본 연구에서는 선박 및 해양구조물 등 가혹한 부식환경에서 강력한 내구성을 가질 수 있도록 다양한 종류의 표면처리 도장 시편을 제작하여 자외선 조사-염수분무-침지환경 등의 열악한 환경조건 하에서 부식-열화 촉진 시험을 실시하였다. 그리고 그 촉진 열화 과정에서 도막의 외관 상태를 관찰 분석함은 물론 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법을 병행 측정하며 그 표면막의 부식 및 도막 열화도를 비교-종합 평가하였다.본 연구에 사용된 시편은 Al 및 Zn 도금 강판에 에폭시, 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄, 에폭시-우레탄 도장 시편으로 Scribe, No Scribe 및 비교재 Al 및 Zn 도금 시편으로 분류하여 각각 실험을 진행하였다. 즉, 도막 열화 시험은 복합 노화 시험법으로 UV 조사 36 시간(ASTM G53), 염수분무 32 시간(ISO 7253), 수분 응축 10 시간을 1 Cycle로 100 Cycle(7800 시간) 동안 실험을 진행하였다. 이때 도막 열화도 평가는 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법을 이용하여 각 실험 조건별로 주파수에 따른 임피던스(Z) 값을 평가하였다. 즉, 상온 $25^{\circ}C$의 3.5% NaCl 100 ml 수용액에 작동 전극(Working Electrode)과 구리 도선을 통해 연결하였고, 노출 면적은 $1cm^2$로 일정하게 유지 하였으며, 상대 전극(Counter Electrode)은 탄소봉, 기준 전극(Reference Electrode)으로 포화카로멜전극(Saturated Calomel Electrode)을 사용하여 측정하였다. No Scribe 시편의 경우에는 Al 기판 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄 도장 시편이 우수한 도막 저항성을 나타내었으며, 에폭시-우레탄 도장시편은 23사이클 이후의 저항값이 가장 낮게 나타났다. Zn 기판의 경우는 에폭시, 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄, 에폭시-우레탄 도장 시편 모두 저항 값이 유사하였으며, Al 및 Zn 도금 시편은 도장 처리된 시편에 비해 훨씬 낮은 저항 값을 보였다. 또한 Scribe 시편의 경우에는 Al 기판 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄 도장 시편에서 높은 초기 저항 값을 보였으며, 23 사이클 후의 저항 값은 세 종류의 도막에서 약 1~0.1 Gohm 으로 나타났다. 그리고 Zn 기판 에폭시-실리콘 우레탄 도장 시편에서 가장 낮은 도막 저항 값이 나타났다. 이상의 실험을 통해서 본 연구 내용은 실내촉진시험으로 선박 및 해양 강 구조물에 사용되는 다양한 종류의 도막의 열화도를 평가하는 기초 설계 지침으로 응용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 한편, 도막은 노출 환경에 따라 방식 성능이 다르므로 실제 도막의 사용환경을 고려하여 도장 사양별 적용 부위에 따른 적정 가속 실험 방법을 선정할 필요가 있다고 사료된다.

Plasticizers, which are added to plastics, can cause exudation, which means that the plasticizer comes out from surface of the plastics. This causes the surface of plastic artworks to become sticky, and this allows dust and pollutants to become attached to the surface. Therefore, in this study, the degradation characteristics and chemical cleaning methods of each type of plasticizer are evaluated using PVC specimens. To evaluate the degradation characteristics and chemical cleaning methods, microscopic observation, chromaticity and weight measurement, and FT-IR spectroscopy were performed. The results showed that PVCs containing different plasticizers have different degradation patterns. Especially, the PVC containing TOTM showed discoloration and exudation. In the evaluation of the chemical cleaning methods, ethyl alcohol and KOH solution showed good effects, but their stability was not good. Surfactant was found to have a good cleaning effect and stability as a cleaner for exudated plasticizers.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of low temperature degradation (LTD) on the bonding strength of yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP). The push-shear bond test method was used to investigate the core-veneer bonding strength of industrially manufactured Y-TZP core ceramic and manufacturer recommended veneering ceramic. Four groups from ceramic-zirconia specimens (n=28; n=7 per group) were assigned into four experimental aging conditions, namely storage in an autoclave at $134^{\circ}C$ for 0, 3, 5, 10 hours. Bonding strength was obtained using a universal testing machine with crosshead speed 0.5 mm/min. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA and Tukey's test (${\alpha}=0.05$). In bonding strength test, the group which was treated with LTD showed lower bonding strength than no treated group. The ceramic-zirconia bonding strength was affected by LTD (p<0.05). Digital microscope examination of the fracture surface showed mixed failures with adhesive and cohesive types in LTD with treated Y-TZP groups.

The aim of this study was to investigate the degradation of piezoelectric properties with compressive cy-clic loading, the change in bending strength before and after poling treatment and fracture strength in MPB depending on the amount of MnO2 addition. The MPB with 0.25 wt.% MnO2 showed the best resistance against the piezoelectric degradation with compressive cyclic loading. Bending strength increased when pol-ing and loading directions are parallel, however decreased when poling and loading directions are per-pendicular each other. Because, during poling treatment, compressive residual stress is generated in the pol-ing direction but tensile residual stress in the perpendicular direction to poling direction.
