Steel tire cords were subjected to plasma polymerization coating of acetylene in order to enhance the adhesion to rubber compounds. Plasma polymerization coating was varied to plasma polymerization coating of acetylene, argon plasma etching+plasma polymerization, or argon plasma. etching+plasma polymerization with Ar carrier gas. Adhesion was evaluated via TCAT samples and compared to those with brass coated tire cord. For durability study, plasma polymer cooled tire cords were aged in lab atmosphere for 1, 3, 5, 10 or 15 days, while TCAT specimens prepared with plasma polymer coated tire cords were aged in distilled water, 10% NaCl solution or $100^{\circ}C$ oven for 1, 2, 3 or 4 weeks. After testing, failure surfaces were analyzed with SEM/EDX. Among the treatments, the highest adhesion was obtained by Ar etching+acetylene plasma. polymerization coating with Ar carrier gas, providing almost same pull-out force as the brass coated tire cords. Upon the aging of the tire cords in the lab atmosphere, brass coated tire cords provided better adhesion than plasma polymer coated tire cords, while the TCAT samples with plasma polymer coated tire cords exhibited similar or slightly superior durability to those with brass coated tire cords.

Interfacial adhesion between fiber and resin are related to composites performance, so it is very important to evaluate them accurately. In this study, the interfacial properties of microdroplets under fatigue loading conditions were evaluated. The mechanical properties and interfacial adhesion of epoxy resin with dopamine were studied. Tensile specimens were prepared to evaluate mechanical properties and epoxy microdroplets specimens were used for the evaluation of interfacial adhesion. In addition, in the microdroplet fatigue test, the same diameter of the microdroplet was used and the experiment was performed under the same conditions. As a result, it was confirmed that mechanical and interfacial properties were improved when dopamine was applied to epoxy resin through tensile and microdroplet experiments. It is considered that dopamine improves the degree of curing of the epoxy resin and imparts hydroxyl groups to the epoxy resin to increase the mechanical properties and the interfacial adhesion between the glass fibers.

The surfaces of injection and pressure-molded sheets of poly(ethylene-covulylacetate)(EVA) foams used for shoe mid-sole were treated with low temperature plasma to improve adhesion with a water-based polyurethane adhesives. Several experimental variables were considered, such as radio frequency power, treating time, type of gas. gas flow, and distance between electrode and sample. The modificated surface by plasma treatment were characterized using contact angle meter, scanning electron microscopy(SEM), universal testing machine(UTM). Adhesion was tested by T-peel tests of treated EVA foams/polyurethane adhesive joints. The treatment in the low temperature plasma produced a noticeable decrease in contact angle. The peel strength of EVA foams treated with plasma was increased with plasma treating time, and gas flow.

국내 합판 산업계는 오랫동안 남양재 활엽수를 주로 사용하여 왔으나, 환경 보존적인 측면에서 열대재의 벌채를 규제하는 등 여러 요인으로 인하여 합판용 원목의 수입이 어려워지고 있다. 이에 대응하기 위하여 합판용 원목을 침엽수재로 대체할 필요가 있으며, 침엽수 합판 제조를 위한 기초 자료를 제공하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였다. 공시 수종은 국내에서 조림한 낙엽송과 시베리아산 낙엽송 및 뉴질랜드산 라디에타 소나무였으며, 공시원목으로부터 얻어진 단판의 품질과 이들 단판으로 제조한 합판의 접착력과 휨강도를 조사하였다. 이면 할렬실험에서 시베리아산 낙엽송은 다른 수종에 비해 할렬 밀도가 낮게 나타났다. 단판 품질은 접착력 및 휨강도에 거의 영향을 미치지 않았으나 합판의 휨강도에서는 심재와 변재에 따른 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이는 합판제조사 심재와 변재를 구별하여 사용할 필요가 있었다. 라디에타 소나무의 변재부로 만든 합판 MOR은 다른 수종에 비해 우수하게 나타났다. 접착력 실험에 있어서는 페놀 접착제를 사용하여 만들어진 합판만이 구조용으로써 사용할 수 있음을 알았다. 목파율은 동일 수종 합판에서는 라디에타 소나무 구성이 가장 높게 나타났으며, 이수종(異樹種) 합판에서는 표판을 국산 낙엽송, 심판을 라디에타 소나무를 사용하여 만든 합판에서 가장 높게 나타났다.

A sturdy on the adhesion properties of solid propellants, liners, and insulation was carried out according to the types of barrier coats. A barrier coats were used to prevent migration of the plasticizer or curative between the propellant/liner/insulation, and the barrier coat was selected out of Isocyanates with different molecular weight and number of -NCO in one molecule. As a result, it was found that the more the -NCO group and the larger molecular weight, the stronger adhesion. In addition, as a result of experiments about effects of the pot life after applying the barrier coat on bond strength, the adhesion strength was shown to increase as the pot life was short.

Interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of poly(arylene ether phosphine oxide) (PEPO) coated carbon fibers was evaluated via microdroplet test and compared with results obtained from carbon fibers coated with poly(arylene ether sulfone) (PES), Udel$^{\circledR}$ P-1700 and Ultem$^{\circledR}$ 1000. Interfacial adhesion between thermoplastics and uncoated carbon fibers was also measured in order to understand the adheion mechanism. PEPO coated carbon fibers showed the highest IFSS, followed by PES, Udel and Ultem coated fibers. A similar trend was observed for thermoplastic/uncoated fibers. SEM analysis indicated that only PEPO coated fiber exhibited cohesie failure in the vinylester resin, while others showed failure at or near the interface of polymer coating and vinylester resin. The enhanced interfacial adhesion by PEPO coating could be attributed to the strong interaction of P = 0 moiety to the fiber as well as to the vinylester resin.

This study was conducted to improve the bond strength of plywood bonded with F/U molar ratio urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins modified with the selected FGMDI prepolymer contents for various purposes. The amount of FGMDI was mixed with liquid UF resin at 0 wt% (as control), 2 wt%, 5 wt%, 10 wt%, 25 wt%, and 50 wt% based on the resin solids. As results, in bonding strength, plywood with F/U molar ratio of 1.4 showed the highest value in Type 2 test and all molar ratio UF resins modified with over 25 wt% of the FGMDI showed more than $11kgf/cm^2$, which was satisfied the minimum requirement of KS standard, $7.5kgf/cm^2$, after Type1.5 testing. As F/U molar ratio was increased and the FGMDI addition in the UF resin was increased, average reduction rate of Type 1.5 bonding strength compared with Type 2 was significantly decreased.

To find a new use of wood tar which is obtained from the manufacturing process of wood charcoal, a resol type of phenol adhesive using wood tar was made and some adhesion tests on plywood were examined. Phenol adhesive synthesized with pine tar was almost same as an original phenol adhesive in physical properties such as solid content and viscosity and tensile-shear adhesive strength of plywood made of phenol adhesive synthesized with pine tar was not much lower than the original one in non-waterproof and waterproof tests. Phenol adhesive synthesized with oak tar, however, was different from original phenol adhesive in physical properties. Adhesive strength of plywood made of oak tar was $50\%$ lower than the original one on waterproof tests. The amount of emitted formaldehyde increased as the amount of wood tar increased.

Thermoplastic aceton-formaldehyde resin adhesive was added as a modifier for urea-formaldehyde resin adhesive and its effects on plywood smear strength and wood failure were investigated. The results are summarized as follows: 1) The plywood shear strength and wood failure showed the highest values at $120^{\circ}C$ of hot plate temperature, but the values decreased according to the rise of addition ratio of aceton resin. 2) The variation of molar ratio of aceton resin had no effect on plywood shear strength and wood failure. 3) The plywood bonded by the addition of aceton resin showed lower values than those of urea resin bonding plywoods in shear strength and wood failure. Therefore, aceton resin was inadequate as a modifier of urea resin adhesive.

Cu/PET film composites were prepared by electroless copper plating method. In order to improve adhesion between electroless Cu plated layer and polyester (PET) film, the effect of pretreatment conditions such as etching method and mixed catalyst composition, and accelerator was investigated. Compared to NaOH etching medium, PET film was more finely etched by HCl solution, resulting in an improvement in adhesion between Cu layer and PET film. However, there were no significant differences in electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness as a function of etching medium. The surface morphology of Cu plated PET film revealed that Pd/Sn colloidal particles became more evenly distributed in the smaller size by increasing the molar ratio of PdCl$_2$ : SnCl$_2$ from 1 : 4 to 1 : 16. With increasing the molar ratio of mixed catalyst, the adhesion and the shielding effectiveness of Cu plated PET film were increased. Furthermore, HCl was turned out to be a better accelerator than NaOH in order to enhance the activity of the mixed PdCl$_2$/SnCl$_2$ catalyst, which facilitated the formation of more uniform copper deposit on the PET film.
