본 연구는 Zn-Al혼합물 분진의 화재폭발사고예방을 위한 안전자료 확보를 목적으로 최소발화온도를 실험적으로 조사하였다. Zn-Al혼합물의 최소발화온도 측정은 퇴적두께 10 mm, 직경 100 mm의 원형 형태로 퇴적된 시료를 대상으로 가열판의 승온속도 $20^{\circ}C/min$의 조건에서 실시하였다. 그 결과, $280^{\circ}C$에서 Zn-Al혼합물 분체는 가열 후 1000 s부터 발열을 통하여 급격히 온도가 상승하여 발화 여부 판단기준이 되는 $450^{\circ}C$를 넘어 $600^{\circ}C$에 다다르며 시간과 함께 감소하였으며 임계 최소발화온도는 $280^{\circ}C$로 나타났다. 퇴적Zn-Al혼합물 분체의 최소발화온도는 문헌에 제시된 Al에 비하여는 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

The autoignition temperature (AIT) of a substance is the lowest temperature at which the vapor ignites spontaneously from the heat of the environment. The AIT is important index for the safe handling of flammable liquids which constitute the solvent mixtures in the process. This study measured the AITs of n-butanol+p-xylene mixture by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The AITs of n-butanol and p-xylene which constituted binary system were $340^{\circ}C$ and $557^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental AITs of n-butanol+p-xylene mixture were a good agreement with the calculated AITs by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D.(average absolute deviation).

두 물질의 단순 혼합물에서 각 물질이 어떤 상을 가지고 행동하는지는 순수 과학은 물론이고 그것을 적용하는 공학에서도 역시 중요하다. 계를 표현하는 여러 가지 방법이 있지만, Lennard-Jones potential이 그 중 가장 단순하면서도 효과적이기 때문에 널리 쓰인다. 이 연구는 입자간의 에너지가 Lennard-Jones potential로 표현된 혼합물의 상변화를 Chemworks2의 "Mixed LJ particles MD" 프로그램으로 모사 실험 하고, 그 결과를 방사 분포 함수를 통해 분석했다. 분석을 통해서 Lennard-Jones 상수가 다른 두 가지의 경우에 대하여 각각 혼합물의 온도와 밀도 변화에 따른 상변화가 다르게 나타나는 것을 보였다.

In the reutilization process using limonene, the organic solvent to reduce volume of EPS, the AIT was measured with the variation of concentration and volume of mixture, in order to present the fund-mental data on the fire hazard assessment of limonene - EPS mixture at storage and handling. And ignition zone was compared with non-ignition zone. The equation related to AIT, activation energy and ignition delay time, used by the most scientific basis for predicting AIT values, was suggested using linear regression analysis as ln t = 0.704/T-5.819. And the equation related to concentration of mixture and AIT was also suggested to predict ignition hazard of combustible mixture using nonlinear regression analysis as $T_m/=248.32+69.27X+172.60X^2$. It enabled to predict ignition temperature according to variation of ignition delay time and concentration of mixture by the suggested equations.

Porous asphalt pavement (PAP) has many functions, such as reducing accidents and decreasing noise. On the other hand, vulnerability is inevitable because PAP contains approximately 20% porosity. This study evaluated the effects of the maximum aggregate size (MAS), temperature, and porosity on the PAP durability. The indirect tensile strength measures durability. This study tested the samples that stayed dry and were moisturized by freezing and thawing for mixtures having the same porosity of 20% and MAS of 13mm, 10mm, and 8mm. The same test was performed on a mixture of 20% and 22% voids made of the same material with a MAS of 10mm. As a result, for 20% porosity, significant differences in the changes in MAS and temperature were found. A clear difference was observed between 8mm and 13mm under dry conditions, but there were no other significant differences in the MAS change. Furthermore, there was a clear difference in temperature for the change in porosity and temperature, but the gap in 2% porosity at 20% did not show a clear difference. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a more durable PAP through quantitative evaluations of the factors affecting the PAP durability.

To produce asphalt mixtures at temperature significantly below $135^{\circ}C$, called "Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA)", new technologies are currently being developed worldwide. To produce WMA mixtures in this research, foaming technology is adopted to effectively disperse asphalt binder at lower temperature than hot mix asphalt (HMA) in the field. The main objectives of this study are to develop WMA process using foaming technology (WMA-foam) and evaluate its performance characteristics under various temperatures and loading conditions. WMA-foam mixtures were produced by injecting PO 64-22 foamed asphalt into warm aggregates whereas WMA mixtures were produced by adding PO 64-22 asphalt (without foaming) in the warm aggregates. Both dynamic modulus and flow number of WMA-foam mixtures were higher than those of WMA mixtures. Based on the limited dynamic modulus and repeated load test results, it is concluded that the WMA-foam mixtures using warm aggregates at $100^{\circ}C$ are more resistant to fatigue cracking and rutting than WMA mixtures.

The fire and explosion properties of combustible materials are necessary for the safe handling, storage, transportation and disposal. Typical combustion characteristics for process safety include auto ignition temperature(AIT). The AIT is an important index for the safe handling of combustible liquids. The AIT is the lowest temperature at which the material will spontaneously ignite. In this study, the AITs and ignition delay times of n-pentanol and p-xylene mixture were measured by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The AITs of n-pentanol and p-xylene which constituted binary system were $285^{\circ}C$ and $557^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental AITs and ignition delay times of n-pentanol and p-xylene mixture were a good agreement with the calculated AITs and ignition delay times by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D. (average absolute deviation). Therefore, it is possible to estimate the AITs and ignition delay times in other compositions of n-pentanol and p-xylene mixture by using the predictive equations which presented in this study.

Cloud-point data to $160^{\circ}C$ and 1,000 bar are presented with poly(ethylene-co-15.3 mole% octene) copolymers ($PEO_{15}$) in pure 1-octene and mixtures of ethylene - 1-octene. The cloud-point curves for $PEO_{15}$ - ethylene - 1-octene mixture dramatically increase in pressure to as high as 1,000 bar with an increasing ethylene concentration. At ethylene concentrations less than 18 wt%, the ternary mixture has bubble- and cloud-point curves. As the ethylene concentration of the ternary mixture increases, the bubble-point curve and the single-phase region reduce. The reduction in the single phase region with increasing ethylene concentrations is the result of reduced dispersion interactions between $PEO_{15}$ and the mixed solvent. The single-phase region decreases with increasing temperatures when ethylene concentrations are lower than 36 wt%, whereas the single-phase region increases with temperatures at ethylene concentrations greater than 50 wt%. At ethylene concentrations greater than 50 wt% the effect of the polar interactions of the mixed solvent, which is unfavorable to dissolve PEO, is greater than the effect of the density of the mixed solvent. Therefore, the cloud-point pressures increase with a decreasing temperature. However, at ethylene concentrations less than 50 wt%, the cloud-point pressures decrease with temperature, because the effect of the polar interactions is less than the density effect.

The MSITs(Minimum Spontaneous Ignition Temperatures) or AITs(Autoignition Temperatures) describe the minimum temperature to which a substance must be heated, without the application of a flame or spark, which will cause that substance to ignite. This study measured the MSITs(Minimum Spontaneous Ignition Temperatures) of n-pentanol+ethylbenzene system by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The MSITs of pure n-pentanol and ethylbenzene were $285^{\circ}C$ and $475^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental MSITs of n-pentanol+ethylbenzene system were a in good agreement with the MSIT calculated by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D.(average absolute deviation).

분자동역학 모의실험을 이용하여 간단한 van der Waals 상호작용하는 이성분 혼합물 계의 섞임 자유에너지 및 섞임 엔트로피 등 섞임과 관련된 열역학 함수들을 계산하는 방법을 소개한다. 각 혼합물의 과잉 자유에너지는 열역학 적분 (thermodynamic integration)방법을 이용하여 계산하고, 이성분 혼합물의 섞임 관련 열역학 함수들은 Hess의 법칙을 확장함으로써 구한다. 계산 결과로부터 온도가 증가할수록 계의 섞임 Helmholtz 자유에너지는 감소하며, 섞임 내부에너지도 감소함을 알 수 있다. 섞임 엔트로피는 온도가 증가할수록 이상기체의 섞임 엔트로피에 접근함을 알 수 있다. 섞임 Helmholtz 자유에너지에 대한 섞임 내부에너지와 섞임 엔트로피 기여도를 조사한 결과 이 계의 섞임 과정을 주도하는 추진력은 엔트로피에 의한 것임을 알 수 있다. 본 연구 방법과 결과를 이용함으로써 학부생들이 혼합물의 열역학 성질을 이해하는데 도움을 주리라 기대한다.
