The time to ignition, heat release rate characteristics, and carbon monoxide yield of fiber reinforced and sandwich phenol resin were investigated with cone calorimeter. The fire characteristics of unsaturated polyester, mostly being applied to the existing passenger train, and phenolic resin were compared. DSC & TGA was used to monitor the degree of thermal decomposition and weight loss for the phenolic resin. According to the cone calorimeter data, the time to ignition was shorter, heat release rate, and CO yield was higher as the external heat flux increased. Under the same heat flux, the time to ignition of sandwich type phenolic resin was shorter than that of laminated. The result of comparison between unsaturated polyester and phenolic resin was that phenolic resin was shown to have better fire resistance than unsaturated polyester.

The unsaturated polyester(UP) and epoxy resin have a superior material properties and a chemical resistance using sewerage pipes rehabilitation. However, UP and epoxy have not a low temperatures harding, the requirement $8{\sim}11$ hours long times harding and heating system used by reinforcement liner. This study is to evaluate the effects of low temperature harding properties methyl methacrylate(MMA) monomer using expanded polystyrene(EPS) and UP in addition of initiator and promoters. From the test result, viscosity tends to increase with increasing EPS and UP contents. However, harding time change of the MMA resins which it follows in addition of the initiator and promoter.

Damaged wind turbine blades are repaired conventionally using a hand lay-up method with epoxy, where the bonding strength is not high. Epoxy has poor curing characteristics at low temperatures. The infusion method with polyester was proposed. Infusion method is believed to distribute resin uniformly. Polyester is used because it hardens better than epoxy at low temperatures. At room temperature, the proposed method increased the bonding strength by 77.7% compared to the conventional method. Using the proposed method at 15 and $5^{\circ}C$, the bonding strength increased compared to the conventional method. This paper proposes a new method for repairing wind turbine blades, even at temperatures where the conventional method cannot be used because epoxy resin does not harden. The bonding strength of the proposed method at low temperatures is higher than that of the conventional method at room temperature.

선박용 폐 FRP의 재활용 공정은 층 분리된 시편을 제조한 후, 촉매인 NaOH를 0.08이상, 용매인 PG를 6.0(폐 FRP 시편 무게당)이상 사용하여 분해하였고, 최적 반응시간은 5시간, 반응온도는 $250^{\circ}C$였다. 분해액에서 60 %의 PG를 분리한 잔여액을 사용하여도 재생 불포화 폴리에스터 수지를 합성할 수 있었으며, 분해공정에서 배출된 폐 유리섬유는 재생수지에 혼합 사용할 수 있었다.

Polyester/melamine cured coatings had been used for pre-primed coatings and pre-coated metal coatings, because it has good mechanical,chemical properties, and mar resistance. But it has weak points such as stiffness and low formability for making automotive components. Polyester had been synthesized using polycarbonate diol of long alkyl chain which can improve flexibility and formability which is one of the important factors for pre-coated steel sheets (PCM). In this study, strain and tensile strength were examined by the tensile test and formability was examined by the drawing test. Also, Those polyester resins were also measured by DMA to verify flexibility of cured coatings.

This work is about the development of jet-fuel resistant PVC sealant using a polyester plasticizer. PVC copolymer was compounded with adipic acid glycol(Songcizer P-3000) or DOP plasticizers. Fuel-immersed and non-immersed penetration, solubility, flow, and elongation by tensile adhesion of PVC compounds were measured. Penetration increase by fuel immersion and solubility of PVC compounds with adipic acid glycol polyester plasticizer were smaller than those of PVC compounds with DOP plasticizer. Elongation by tensile adhesion test of PVC compound containing 500 phr of Songcizer P-3000 decreased proportionally to the content of DCDP (dicyclopentadiene) base petroleum resin adhesion promoter. Calcium carbonate($CaCO_3$) filler inhibited the diffusion of fuel in all the PVC compounds and decreased the solubility of PVC compounds containing Songcizer P-3000.

The effects of catalyst, accelerator and blend composition on the cure behavior of unsaturated polyester resin (UPE), vinyl ester resin (VE) and their blends were studied using differential scanning calorimetry(DSC). The DSC thermograms strongly depend on each variable. The result shows that the small exothermic peak at 115$^{\circ}C$ is due mainly to the UPE component in the UPE/VE blends and the large one at 134~138 $^{\circ}C$ is due mainly to the VE component. The results also indicate that the change of the DSC thermogram measured after each blend was exposed to high temperature 18$0^{\circ}C$ and the fast curing conditions of a few tens seconds provide useful information on understanding the thermal processing of a blend at high speed. The measurements of resin flow time represent that there are three distinct stages of cure in the UPE/VE blends: induction, transition and macro-gelation stages, as similarly reported for UPE by others earlier. The thermal stability and flexural properties of the cured UPE are significantly improved by blending it with the VE, depending on the composition.

This study was carried out to develop a procedural method to produce high strength polymer concrete using unsaturated polyt.ster resin and to examine its mechanical properties. Various mechanical properties were analyzed with respect to materials and additives. A method to produce high strength polymer concrete was successfully developed. Comperssive strength of $1,291~1,445 kg/cm^2$, splitting tensile strength of $106~145 kg/cm^2$ and flexural strength of $182~235 kg/cm^2$, at age of 7days wer-e achieved from the cylinderical ;md beam specimen prepared with the method. Modulus of elasticity. Poisson's rntio and the ultirnate corn pressive strain of cylinderical specimen were $2.8~3.8{\times}10^5\;kg/cm^2$. 0.21~0.32, and 0.005~0. 0065, respectively. Modulus of elasticity of the polymer concrete was smaller than that of hlgh strength cement concrete while the maximum compressive strain was very larger than that of high strength cement concrete.

Optimum conditions for UV-radiated photopolymerization of unsaturated polyester that could be used as protecting layer of large diameter pipe were investigated in this paper. UV photopolymerization method was selected to solve the problems, arising when thermal polymerization by organic peroxide was used, such as the instability of peroxide initiator, the evolution of volatile organic compound, and thermal deformation of product. Two of the photo-initiators (Irgacure 819 and Darocure 1173) well known for its penetrating ability deep into the polymer layer were selected, and the optimum conditions for photopolymerization (1.5 phr initiator content, 1:1.2 initiator ratio, Ga lamp for UV source) were found from the thermal and mechanical test results of the resultant UP polymers. In addition, composite materials containing UP polymer and glass fiber were tested for hardness, impact strength, and flexural strength to find that the impact strength of composite significantly improved.
