This study was conducted to investigate the penetration of PEG for conservation treatment conditions of archaeological waterlogged wood. The weight percent gain was examined, depending on the solvent of PEG, concentration and treatment period and temperature of treatment solutions. The penetration of PEG in the cell lumina of treatment woods was observed by scanning electron microscope. The results showed that the type of solvents had no influence on PEG penetration. In the concentration of the PEG treatment solutions, the weight percent gains (WPGs) were increased with increase in concentration of PEG. In terms of the period of the soaking treatment, a maximum WPGs were obtained for only 20 days. There was no distinctive difference in the WPGs by difference the temperature of the treatment. In conclusion, in the conservation of small size of archaeological waterlogged wood, it is confirmed that optimal solvent type and treatment period of PEG are water and 20 days, respectively.

In this study, high-density carbon blocks were manufactured using coke, binder pitch, and impregnated pitch, then the effect of pitch fluidity on the densification of carbon blocks during the impregnation process was investigated. A green block was manufactured through high-pressure figuration of coke and binder pitch, and a carbon block was obtained through a heat treatment process. An impregnation process was performed to remove pores generated by volatilization of the binder pitch during the heat treatment process. The impregnation process was carried out the high-pressure reaction step of impregnating the pitch into the carbon block followed by the pretreatment step of melting the impregnation pitch. Melting of the impregnation pitch was carried out at 140~200 ℃, and the viscosity of the impregnation pitch decreased as the heat treatment temperature increased. The decrease in the viscosity of the impregnation pitch improved the fluidity and effectively impregnated the pores inside the carbon block, reducing the porosity of the carbon block by 83% and increasing the apparent density by 5%.

The electrolyte wetting phenomena in the electrode of lithium ion battery is studied numerically using a multiphase lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). When a porous electrode is compressed during roll-pressing process, the porosity and thickness of the compressed electrode are changed, which can affect its wettability. In this study, the change in electrolyte distribution and degree of saturation as a result of varying the compression ratio are investigated with two-dimensional LBM approach. We found that changes in the electrolyte transport path are caused by a reduction in through-plane pore size and result in a decrease in the wettability of the compressed electrode.

폴리우레탄은 복합재료의 함침 및 코팅용으로 가장 보편적으로 사용되는 수지이다. 폴리우레탄-부직포 복합소재는 폴리에스테르 또는 나일론과 같은 합성섬유로 제조된 부직포에 폴리우레탄으로 함침한 후 다시 폴리우레탄으로 코팅함으로써 소재의 단위 무게 당 폴리우레탄이 차지하는 비율이 매우 높고, 최종제품의 물성에 많은 영향을 끼치므로 이와 관련한 연구는 주로 기능성 및 내구성을 부여하는데 맞춰지고 있다[1]. (중략)

Resin impregnation of carbon materials was affected by surface of carbon materials. The surface of carbon materials with coupling treatment improved comparability and wettability with resin, and that increased impregnation efficiency and properties of carbon materials. As a results of FT-IR, The silanol was coated on carbon surface with one layer. Coupling treatment of carbon materials increased impregnation efficiency, which improved porosity, mechanical strength, density and friction behavior.

Under the paradigm of sustainable green growth at the national level, various researches and applications for energy saving in the construction field has been attempted. As a part of energy saving efforts, lightweight concrete was investigated for thermal insulation concrete with phase change material (PCM) which has high heat storage capacity. As a part of energy saving efforts, thermal insulation concrete was investigated and evaluated with lightweight aggregate impregnated by PCM which has high heat storage capacity. As a result, it is found that concrete with lightweight aggregate impregnated by PCM is effective to prevent its quality deterioration by reducing water absorption rate of lightweight aggregate. In addition, it has shown that concretes using lightweight aggregate and impregnated lightweight aggregate improve heat insulation property 33% and 40~43% compared with using normal aggregate, respectively. It is that the lightweight aggregate concrete with impregnated lightweight aggregate has 12~14% lower thermal conductivity than unimpregnated.

It is reported that excavated carbonized wooden objects tend to have more peeling and deformation stemming from the coexisting of different types of parts of objects. However, there is little research results on this. In this experiment, the sugar alcohol method was used and then compared with the results of the PEG4000 method which widely uses. This research targets: prediction of strength by weight increase, investigation of the dimensional stabilization effects by measuring the rate of shrinkage change, condition of drug penetration and change of wood texture by using a scanning electron microscope. As the results, the PEG4000 method needs a phased approach over 80% impregnation. On the other hand, the S A method remains steady from over 40% impregnation. The Deformation of carbonized wooden objects used in this experiment is considered as the phenomenon by shrinkage of non-carbonized parts. The PEG4000 method is verified the shrinkage in the samples treated with 20%, 40% and 60%; the S A method is verified the shrinkage in the samples treated with 20%.

Two methods were used to enhance the adsorption capacity of activated carbons. One is to impregnate activated carbons with chemical compounds which have a good affinity for $CO_2$. The other is to activate by heat-treating after impregnation with KOH on activated carbons(AC). The chemical compounds impregnated on AC were alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, and transition metal chlorides. The adsorption capacity of $CO_2$ on AC impregnated with these metals was less than that of pure AC. These compounds have not the chemical affinity for $CO_2$ and obstruct the micropore of AC. The experiment of breakthrough for $CO_2$ on AC impregnated with KOH showed the increase of the adsorbed amount of $CO_2$ in influent gases containing water vapor. This means that KOH adsorbes $CO_2$ gas. However, the adsorbents impregnated with KOH had not the reproducibility because of the production of $K_2CO_3$ by the reaction of KOH with $CO_2$. The amount of $CO_2$ adsorbed on the heat-treated AC at $800^{\circ}C$ increased with the amount of impregnation. The adsorption capacity of $CO_2$ was the largest when the ratio of weight of KOH to AC equal to 4. The isosteric heat of adsorption was calculated by the equation of Clausius-Clapeyron form adsorption capacity data of $CO_2$ for the temperature change. In addition, the characteristics of $CO_2$ breakthrough curve were surveyed for the change of flow rate and concentration.

Ballistic impact analyses have been performed with the Kevlar fabric impregnated with STF(shear thickening fluid). Multi-layer laminates modeled with 3D isoparametric shell elements were used for the performance analysis and their results are compared with experimental results. Both experiments and numerical analyses have been done to verify the usefulness of STF to enhance the impact resistance performance. The results showed that STF increases friction within a bundle of fiber, and this phenomena is more apparent in the velocity range of under near 450 m/s. In this research, it is emphasized that FEA analyses of STF impregnated Kevlar fabric laminate were successfully conducted using shell elements. Moreover, the effectiveness of the technique and accuracy were verified through the comparison with reliable experimental data.
