In this paper, AUTODYN blasting simulation of single blast hole were conducted to evaluate the blasting effects of Polymer Gel. The coupling mediums used as the filling material around an explosive charge were air and gelatin. each simulation case was D I(decoupling index) 1.0, 1.25, 1.56 with air or polymer gel coupling materials. In order to evaluate blast effects full charge model was used as a reference for evaluation of blasting effects. The results of numerical analysis showed that fragmentation of a limestone model of were much more fractured by polymer gel medium than by air medium. As expected, the transmitted peak pressure was higher polymer gel coupled model than in air medium.

본 연구에서는 trimethylolpropane triacrylate(TMPTA)를 사용한 겔폴리머전해질의 전기화학적 특성에 대하여 조사하였다. 겔고분자전해질의 상온 이온전도도는 약 $5.0{\times}10^{-3}S{\cdot}cm^{-1}$이었으며, 온도가 높아짐에 따라 이온전도도는 증가하였다. TMPTA계 겔고분자전해질은 4.5V(vs. $Li/Li^+$)까지의 전위영역에서 우수한 전기화학적 안정성을 나타내었으며, TMPTA계 겔고분자전해질을 적용한 리튬이온폴리머전지의 고율 및 저온 방전특성은 양호하였다. 또한 사이클수명도 200 사이클이 진행된 후에도 초기용량의 약 94%라는 높은 용량유지율을 나타내었다.

Lithium secondary battery with gel polymer electrolyte, which was composed of POAGA and TEGDMA, was prepared and its cell performances were evaluated. Collation time decreased with increasing the contents of the monomer in the POAGA-based gel polymer electrolyte. The polymer electrolyte was stable up to 4.5V electro-chemically and its ionic conductivity was $5.2\times10^{-3}Scm^{-1}$ at room temperature. The lithium-ion polymer battery with $3.0wt\%$ curable monomer and $1.0wt\%$ monomer showed rate-capability, low-temperature performance and cycleability.

In this study, several concrete-block blast tests and AUTODYN numerical analyses were conducted to analyze the effects of different stemming and coupling materials on explosion results. Air, sand, and polymer gel were used as both the stemming and coupling materials. The stemming and coupling effects of these materials were compared with those of the full-charge condition. Soil-covered or buried concrete blocks were used for field crater tests. It was found from the concrete block tests and numerical analyses that both the crater size and the peak pressure around the blast hole were higher when the polymer gel was used than when the sand and the decoupling condition were used. The numerical analyses revealed the same trend as those of the field tests. Pressure peaks in concrete block models were calculated to be 37, 30, and 16 MPa, respectively, for the cases of the polymer gel, sand, and no stemming and decoupling condition. The pressure peak was 52 MPa in the case of full-charge condition, which was the highest pressure. But the damage area for the case was smaller than that obtained from the use of polymer gel. Full-charge was also used as a reference test.

The purpose of this study was to contemplate the effectual waterproofing materials and construction methods for the restoration of underground infrastructures using precast arches(PC-Arch). Until now, there were no proper waterproofing guidelines for waterproofing precast arch tunnel when restoring cultural heritage or building underground infrastructures for noise control. Asphalt membrane sheets were commonly used, but the efficacy of waterproofing done on the precast segment was vulnerable. This study aims to examine the Synthetic Rubber Polymerised Gel(SRPG) proposed in ISO TR 16475, a guideline for the repair of water-leakages, and to demonstrate field applicability based on the waterproofing solution used on the road improvement project in front of Changgyeonggung Palace in Yulgok-ro, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

The purpose of this study was improving the rheology properties of dentifrice by finding optimum binders polymer system which consists of carboxymethylcellulose (CMC), carbomer, and Mg/Al silicate. Response surface methodology (RSM) was employed to investigate the correlation between polymers and rheological properties of dentifrice and to optimize responses. Rheological properties were measured with oscillatory rheometer. As a result, it was identified that gel strength and yield stress were dependent on contents of CMC and carbomer and CMC caused long stringiness of dentifrice. And springness of dentifrice was dependent on contents of CMC and Mg/Al silicate. Optimum components proportion of polymers and silicate were obtained by responses optimization process. According to determined optimum components proportion, it was possible to observe a dentifrice with improved rheological properties.

An electro- active polymer (EAP) (poly(2-acrylamido-2- methyl propane sulfonic acid), PAMPS) gel crosslinked with N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (MBAA) has been prepared by free radical polymerization in aqueous solution with potassium persulfate as initiator PAMPS gel was swollen in surfactant solution to substitute surfactant for using as actuator. PAMPS gel showed a large movement in the surfactant solution by electric field. PAMPS gel showed the reversible binding and fast response rate. Bending mechanism of gel is related to the cooperative process of hydrophobic interaction, swelling-deswelling of gel and the electrostatic attraction between anode (+) and the anions of PAMPS gel. The response rate of PAMPS gel was increased as the applied potential and the degree of cross-linkage were increased. The response rate was increased as the bending cycle was repeated, but it was decreased with increasing the gel thickness.

Geopolymers produced from aluminosilicate materials such as metakaolin and coal ash react with alkali activators and show higher fire resistance than portland cement, due to amorphous inorganic polymer. The percentage of thermal shrinkage of geopolymers ranges from less than 0.5 % to about 3 % until $600^{\circ}C$, and reaches about 5 ~ 7 % before melting. In this study, geopolymers paste having Si/Al = 1.5 and being mixed with carbon nanofibers, silicon carbide, pyrex glass, and vermiculite, and ISO sand were studied in order to understand the compressive strength and the effects of thermal shrinkage of geopolymers. The compressive strength of geopolymers mixed by carbon nanofibers, silicon carbide, pyrex glass, or vermiculite was similar in the range from 35 to 40 MPa. The average compressive strength of a geopolymers mixed with 30 wt.% of ISO sand was lowest of 28 MPa. Thermal shrinkage of geopolymers mixed with ISO sand decreased to about 25 % of paste. This is because the aggregate particles expanded on firing and to compensate the shrinkage of paste. The densification of the geopolymer matrix and the increase of porosity by sintering at $900^{\circ}C$ were observed regardless of fillers.

Polyurethane(PU) microgels were synthesized from poly(caprolactone) diol(PCD) and/or poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG), diisocyanate and 1,2,6-hexane triol by solution polymerization method. A critical gelation concentration of the PU microgels with, mole ratios of PCD/PEG were the important factors influencing the formation and property microgel or macrogels. The physical and thermal properties of the PU microgels prepared with depending upon the structure of diisocyanate, mole ratio of PCD/PEG, and molecular weight of PEG were investigated. It was found that PU microgels were distributed by polydisperse, spherical small particles below 300nm and showed the properties of low viscosity.
