The high rising building construction makes increasing the requirement of high strength concrete. Especially, the workability analysis is related with dispersion of admixture such as SF for improving strength and FA, BS for reducing construction cost and improving durability of Ultra High Strength Concrete which has over 100 MPa of compressive strength is very important. Precisely, decreases dispersion because of lumping situation of each admixture and it causes the workability of admixture is decreased. Therefore, the workability of cement paste is tested for analyze effects of pre-mixed cement for solving those problems with it to this research. The summary of the results are like below. First of all, OBS is increasing workability more than OFS. This result causes that the glassy surface of BS in the OBS is increasing workability and the absorption of admixture of FA in the OFS is decreasing workability. In the case of mixing methods, pre-mixing method is increasing workability more than normal one. This result shows that the normal mixing method is bad dispersion of binders. The other side, the pre-mixing method is good. Furthermore, depending on the mixing time, according to the increasing mixing time such as 30, 60, and 120 seconds, the dispersion of binders and workability turns better.

A variety of techniques has been employed in order to reduce problems caused by the crystallization of paraffin and saturated fatty acid esters in diesel fuel containing biodiesels. Methacrylate copolymers are known as additives which reduce the pour point and cold filtering plugging point (CFPP) of diesel fuels. This paper describes the synthesis, characterization and low temperature properties, having as an initial step the synthesis of the alkyl methacrylate monomers by esterification of methacrylic acid with C12, C18, and C22 fatty alcohols. The copolymerization of these monomers with styrene was then performed, with molar ratios of 30:70, 50:50 and 70:30 for styrene:alkyl methacrylate. All copolymers were characterized by $^1H-NMR$, FT-IR, and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The poly(styrene-co-alkyl methacrylate)s (PStmSMAn) leads to a large reduction in the pour point and CFPP of poly(styrene-co-alkyl methacrylate) in ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) and BD5 with treated 100~5000 ppm of poly(styrene-co-alkyl methacrylate). BD5 fuel containing 5000 ppm of the copolymer (PSt82SMA18) showed a $25^{\circ}C$ and $9^{\circ}C$ reduction in their pour points and CFPP, respectively.

A comparative study on the effects of mean particle diameter and substitutional ratio of II-anhydrite on the fluidity of cement paste has been conducted. Three different mean particle diameters(4, 14 and $35{\mu}m$) and four different substitution ratios(3, 5, 10, 15wt%) have been tested while the dosage of two superplasticizers - naphtalenic(NSF) and polycarboxylic(NT-2) - has been varied from 0 to 2.0wt%. To investigate the effects of those parameters, the variation in fluidity and apparent viscosity of the cement paste has been observed as a function of the elapsed time. The initial fluidity of the cement paste is more affected by the increase in substitution ratio than by the mean particle size of the II-anhydrite. When the substitution ratio of the II-anhydrite is fixed at 10wt%, addition of 1.0wt% NT-2 improves the fluidity of paste cement more than that for NSF. This case has showed the best improvement of the fluidity in the range of parameters investigated. At the addition of 1.0wt% NT-2, apparent viscosity of the cement paste has been noticeably decreased as substitutional ratio of II-anhydrite increases. It was found that it would be more effective to substitute II-anhydrite at a certain ratio to improve the fluidity of the cement paste, in addition to adding NT-2.

다이아몬드 마이크로 블레이드의 절삭 효율을 향상시키고 소결 공정 중 윤활제의 유동성과 젖음성이 다이아몬드 마이크로 블레이드의 물성에 미치는 영향을 연구하기 위해 Cu/Sn 금속 결합재에 표면을 부식시킨 $WS_2$와 부식을 시키지 않은 $WS_2$ 윤활제를 각각 동일한 체적 분율로 첨가하였다. 윤활제의 표면 개질에 따른 마이크로 블레이드 결합재의 내마모성과 굽힘 강도 시험을 행하였고, 실착 절삭 시험을 위한 마이크로 블레이드 시편을 제작하여 수명 및 효율을 평가하였다. Cu/Sn 금속 결합재 파면에서의 $WS_2$ 입자 방향 분석을 통해 표면 개질 과정을 거친 $WS_2$가 압축소결 공정 중 압축 방향에 수직하게 위치하려는 경향이 크게 나타났으며, 이는 소결체의 강도와 경도를 향상시켰다. 마이크로 블레이드의 절삭 효율 및 수명을 평가하기 위한 실착 절삭 시험 결과, 윤활제 표면 부식처리는 처리하지 않은 경우에 비하여 절삭성능은 비슷하게 관찰되었으나 결합재와의 계면 결함을 줄이므로써 블레이드의 수명을 연장시킬 수 있었다.

The effect of additives on the orientation of magnetic Sr-ferrite powders has been studied during powder injection molding under applied magnetic field for fabricating multi-pole anisotropic sintered Sr-ferrite magnets. The orientation of the Sr-ferrite powders depends sensitively on the fluidity of powder-binder mixture, related to the binder additives and the injection molding temperature, and the magnetic field intensity. The orientation of Sr-ferrite powders is good for the compacts with stearic acid added in the binder system of paraffin wax/carnauba wax/HDPE, but it is poor for the compacts with silane coupling agent added. The orientation of Sr-ferrites higher than 80% is achieved at the following useful conditions; apparent viscosity lower than 2500 poise in 1000 sec$^{-1}$ shear rate and applied magnetic field higher than 4 kOe.

This paper reports test results to assess the influence of superplasticizers and different admixture on the flow and compressive strength development of cementless mortar using developed hwangtoh binder. Test specimens were classified into four groups: series for I the mixing ratio of superplasticizers, series II for a kind and replacement level of admixtures according to the variation of water/hwangtoh binder ratio, series III for the specific surface area and replacement level of ground granulated blast-furnace slag and series IV for the replacement level of powered superplasticizer agent developed to improve slump loss of concrete. The proper replacement level of each admixture is proposed for enhancement the flow and compressive strength of the hwangtoh binder mortar.

Palm Oil Fuel Ash(POFA) has been widely used to replace Portland cement to enhance the mechanical properties and durability of concrete. However, it reduces the workability of concrete due to the high content of unburnt carbon and its angular shape requiring the usage of superplasticizer to ensure a proper flowability. In this study, effects of different types and dosage of superplasticizer on the early mechanical and hydration properties of cement paste containing micro-POFA were evaluated using mini-slump test, early compressive strength, TGA, XRD, and SEM. The results indicated that the flowability of cement paste containing micro-POFA reduced as the replacement ratio of micro-POFA increased. As the dosage of superplasticizer increased, the flowability was also increased. In addition, the usage of superplasticizer reduced the early compressive strength, and the strength decreased with an increase in the dosage of superplasticizer. It was confirmed that superplasticizer hindered the formation of C-S-H leading to a relative increase in the formation of Ca(OH)₂.

Present silica dispersing agents are based mainly on fatty acid derivatives of Zn, K and mixture of fatty acid and metallic soaps are used to increase activity. The viscosity of silica filled rubber is lowered by Zn-K soap type silica dispersing agent, thus fluidity of hydrocarbon chains and processibility is improved. Silica dispersing agent should not exert an influence on chracteristics of vulcanization. But scorch and curing time is shortened by Zn-K soap type silica dispersing agent. A newly developed silica dispersing agent, which is a nonmetal type agent, reduced the viscosity and hardness of silica compounding rubber, and the highly increased degree of dispersion of silica is caused by interaction of silica and rubber. Also it did not affect the curing characteristics and scorch stability of silica compounding rubber.

In this study, powered superplasticizer(PSP) agents to improve the slump loss rate of recycled aggregate concrete were developed. To evaluate the variation of fluidity against elapsed time and the mechanical properties, twenty four specimens whose main variables had the mixing condition of aggregates, such as natural and recycled gravels, and natural and recycled fine aggregates, were tested. The concrete slump with a liquid superplasticizer greatly decreased against the elapsed time and dropped by less than 50% of initial slump after two hours. However the concrete slump with the PSP agents hardly varied until after half an hour and maintained more than 85% of initial slump even after an hour. Also the PSP agents made the compressive, splitting tensile, and flexural strength of concrete increased and the shrinkage strain decreased. Considering the properties improvement of concrete, it can be recommended that optimum mixing amount of the PSP agents should be 5% of the amount of cement.
