The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength and failure mode of ceramic brackets according to the surface treatment of porcelain. Sixty Porcelain samples were randomly divided into six groups of ten samples. Then they were treated as follows: Group 1(silane only), Group 2(etching+silane), Group 3(stone+silane), Group 4(sandblasting+silane), Group 5(stone +etching+silane), Group 6(sandblasting+etching+silane) After surface treatment of porcelain, sixty Transcend 6000 brackets were bonded to the prepared porcelain surface and they were stored in $37^{\circ}C$ saline for 24 hours. An Instron universal testing machine was used to test the shear bond strength of ceramic brackets to porcelain. After debonding, bases of ceramic brackets and porcelain surfaces were examined under scanning electron microscope(SEM) to determine failure mode. Statistical analysis of the data was carried out with one-way ANOVA and Duncan's multiple range test. The results were as follows : 1. The shear bond strength of surface-treated groups 2 to 6 was higher than that of only silane-treated group 1, and there was statistical significance. (P<0.05) 2. There was no significant difference among the groups 3 to 6. (P>0.05) 3. The shear bond strength of etching-surface treated group 2 was significantly lower than those of sandblasting-surface treated group 4, complex surface treated group 5 and group 6. 4. According to the scanning electromicroscopic images, the surface roughness of sandblasting-surface treated group 4 was less than those of the group 5 and 6, but there was no significant difference in the shear bond strength. (P>0.05) As a conclusion we can have a clinically adequate bond strength when an application of silane is done after the treatment of porcelain surface with more than one way to bond ceramic bracket on the porcelain. Also, it is considered that the sandblasting and application of silane is effective for the simplication and convenience of the treatment.

For the purpose of development of polymeric material for marine applications, the effects of silica and chopped glass fiber on tensile strength of polyester resin were studied. A series of experiments were performed with different contents of silica and chopped glass fiber. Tensile strength of polyester resin was increased with the contents of unmodified glass fiber, and decreased with that of silica. The surfaces of silica and chopped glass fiber were modified with coupling agent at different concentrations, and the modification showed positive effect on the increase of tensile strength of polyester resin. Synergistic effect on the tensile strength of polyester resin was observed by modified silica and chopped glass fiber.

Epoxy resins are thermoset polymers that exhibit good adhesion, creep resistance, heat resistance, and chemical resistance. These polymers, however, give poor resistance to crack propagation and low impact strength. In this study, epoxy/carboxyl-terminated butadiene acrylonitrile (CTBN) and epoxy/amine-terminated butadiene acrylonitrile (ATBN) composites were prepared with different ratio of CTBN and ATBN to improve low impact strength of epoxy resin. The impact strength of epoxy/elastomeric composites shows high values with increasting nonpolar surface free energy while the tensile strength and the glass transition are decreased. The highest surface free energy, impact strength observed when 15 phr CTBN and 15 phr ATBN added, respectively. It can be concluded that as liquid rubber to improve impact strength of epoxy resin, ATBN is more preferable to CTBN.

In this paper, we are presenting a case that integrates ultra high strength concrete(150MPa) with surface-exposed concrete. Ahead of the field application, we carried out laboratory experiment and B/P Test for a basic property of concrete(slump flow, air content, 50cm flow time, elapse time change and compression strength) and productivity. The next, we conducted Mock-up Test using simulation specimen to evaluate infilling, surface-finishing and hydration heat of concrete. We had satisfactory results for a basic property and hydration heat of concrete. However at the time of field application, it was occurred rupture of formwork because of high lateral pressure of concrete, and then formwork was reinforced and case-in-place time was adjusted. And regardless of low and high frequency vibration, it occurred to surface-pockmark. In case that applies ultra high strength concrete to surface-exposed concrete, we estimate that it is important of systematic management and improvement of construction.

Half-P.C. slab system is the composite structural system which utilizes precast concrete for lower portion and cast in situ concrete for upper portion slab. When the composite slab using Half P.C. slab is deformed by flexural moment, horizontal shear happened at the interface between Half P.C. slab and topping concrete. To resist horizontal shear strength a scratch method has tried. To determine ultimate interface shear strength, shear stress, and shear coefficient, high and normal strength concrete are used for topping concrete. Major variables are compressive strength of topping concrete with or without shear reinforcement, quantitative roughness of the P.C. :surface and tie or untie of the stud with welded deformed wire fabric in the P.C. member. The Icross sectional area on joints is 3,200 $cm^2$ in all specimens. Test results showed that shear stress increased, as the depth of the quantitative roughness increased. The horizontal shear strength could be resisted with safe by the quantitative roughness without shear tie. A shear coefficient determinant equation is proposed such that K = 0.025918 + 0.0068894$\cdot$R – 0.000182354${\cdot}R^2$

The surface layer of the aluminum film reactively ion etched in $CF_4$ plasma was ana alyzed by using XPS. $AlF_3$ which is nonvolatile is formed at the aluminum surface. As the analyzed depth increases, the intensity of the $Al_{2p}$ peak of Al - F bonds decreases while that of a aluminum metallic bond increases. The thickness of the $AlF_x$ surface layer is 50~100 $\AA$ and the deep penetration of fluorine atoms is attributed to the mixing effect by the bombardment of incident particles. For the aluminum oxide film which is etched in $CF_4$ plasma under the same conditions, oxygen atoms are substituted by fluorine atoms to form $$AIF_x$ surface layer, which is m much thinner than that formed on aluminum surface.

본 연구에서는 비파괴적 분석 기법인 각분해 X-선 광전자 분광기(Angle-Resolved X-ray Photoelectron Spectros-copy)를 이용하여 GaAs 표면 자연 산화막의 깊이에 따른 화학적 결합 상태 및 조성 분석을 수행하였다. GaAs의 벽개면 및 Ar이온으로 식각된 면을 기준시료로 하여 각 원자의 광전자 강도(intensity)를 보정해주는 인자인 ASF(atomic sensitivity factor)의 최적값을 구하였다. 이륙각에 따라 발생되어지는 각 원소의 피이크 분해와 정확한 ASF의 보정을 통한 각 원소의 실험적인 결과를 이용하여 깊이 방향으로의 조성 분포 모델을 세웠으며, 이론적인 강도와의 상호비교로부터 표면 오염층의 구조는 표면으로부터 탄소층, Ga-oxide와 As-oxide로 이루어진 oxides층, As-As결합의 elemental As층 및 GaAs기판의 순으로 존재함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 GaAs 표면에 존재하는 오염층은 35.8$\pm$3.3 $\AA$이었다. 또한 위 결과로부터 분석깊이 영역에서 원자수의 비로써 정의되는 의미로서의 실질조성을 구하였는데 단지 특정 이륙각에 따라 일반적인 ASF로 보정된 표면조성 결과는 표면 상태를 명확히 표현해주지 못함을 확인할 수 있었다.

The electroless plating of a metallic nickel on PAN-based carbon fiber surfaces was carried out to improve mechanical interfacial properties of the carbon fiber/epoxy resin composites which were unidirectionally fabricated by a prepregging method. In this work, the influence of Ni-P alloy concentration showing brittle-to-ductile transition was investigated on interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and impact strength of the composites. The surface properties of carbon fibers were also measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). As the result, the $O_{ls}$ /$O_{ls}$ ratio or Ni and P amounts were increased with increasing electroless nickel plating time but the ILSS were not significantly improved. However, the impact properties was significantly improved in the presence of Ni-P alloy in the carbon fiber surface, resulting in an increase of the ductility of the composites.
