The conducting composites were prepared by blending of polyaniline(PANI) as conducting polymer and nylon6,6 as matrix in m-cresol. The PANI was protonated with alkylbenzenesulfonic acid such as camphorsulfonic acid(CSA) or dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid(DBSA). The miscibility of the composites was improved and the electrical conductivity was increased by adding dioctylphthalate(DOP). The electrical conductivity of the composites depending on the amount of protonating agent and PANI complex and the morphology were investigated. When it was protonated with DBSA having long alkyl chain and the content of PANI complex was 25 wt%, the electrical conductivity of the compsosite was increased up to 1.02 S/cm.

DMA-co-DAMA were synthesized from 2-diethylaminoethyl metacrylate and dodecyl-metacrylate containing long chain hydrocarbon group with hydrophilic and hydrophobic radicals. To facilitate water emulsification,acrylic copolymer was cationized by acetic acid to produce acetated acrylic copolymer. The structures of the synthesized copolymer and acetated copolymers were confirmed by IR, NMR, and molecular weight was measured by GPC, and C. H. N elemental analysis. Acetated acrylic copolymers were perfectly emulsified in water and showed increased emulsion stability. Polymer dispersion for cement modifier(PDCM-PDD) was prepared by blending of the guaternized acrylic copolymer synthesized above sodium silicate sodium gluconate oleic acid and triethanol amine. The result with prepared polymer dispersion of cement modfier was examined, and it was found that excellent waterproffing effect; Water permeability ratio is 0.44 under the water pressure of $100g/cm^2$ and 0.55 under $3kg/cm^2$, and water absorption ratio is 0.36~0.47 and 1.02 compressive strength ratio at mixed ratio of water/PDCM-PDD is 45 times.

Concrete, the mixture of cement, sand, gravel and water, is a suspension substance extensively used to construct building materials. When a concrete mortar is applied to the underwater construction, the rheology of concrete is of great importance to its flow performance, placement, anti-washout and consolidation. In this research, the anti-washout and rheological properties of concrete have been investigated with concrete admixtures prepared by adding anionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, and polymeric thickeners. The concrete mortar formulated by pseudo-polymeric systems with the electrostatic association of anionic and cationic surfactants, showed high viscosities and suitable anti-washout properties, but poor pumpabilities. The addition of poly methyl vinyl ether to the mixed surfactant system exhibits synergistic effects by improving the concrete mortar properties of the concrete mortar such as fluidity, visco-elastic property, self-leveling, and anti-washout.

For the recycling of rapid-chilled steel slag, the mechanical strengths and physical properties of EVA-polymer modified mortars with the various replacement ratios of rapid-chilled steel slag were investigated. Twenty five specimens of polymer modified mortars were prepared with the five different amounts of EVA-polymer modifier (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 wt%) and rapid-chilled steel slag (0, 25, 50, 75, 100 wt%). For the investigation of the characteristics of polymer modified mortars, the measurements such as water-cement ratio, unit volume weight, air content for fresh mortar and compressive strength, flexural strength, water absorption, hot water resistance, porosity and SEM investigation for curing specimens were conducted. As a results, with an increase in the replacement ratio of rapid-chilled steel slag, water-cement ratios decreased but unit volume weight increased remarkably. With increasing EVA-polymer modifier and the replacement ratio of rapid-chilled steel slag, percent of water absorption decreased but compressive and flexural strengths increased remarkably. By the hot water resistance test, mechanical strengths decreased but total pore volume and porosity increased remarkably. In the SEM observation, the components of specimen were shown to stick to each other in the form of co-matrix phase before hot water resistance test, but polymer modifier of co-matrix phase was decomposed or deteriorated after hot water resistance test.

This study was investigated to compare the suppression of Meloidogyne arenaria by different treatments of Pasteuria penetrans which is known for biological control agent against Meloidogyne spp.. In order to select proper number of P. penetrans showing good suppression effect, P. penetrans were mixed with M, arenaria for attachment using three different concentration such as $3{\times}10^4$, $3{\times}10^5$ and $3{\times}10^6$ endospores/5 g medium, followed by treating them onto the roots of tomato. After 14 weeks incubation, P. penetrans at $3{\times}10^6$ endospores showed highest activity against the formation of gall caused by M, arenaria. At a dose of $3{\times}10^5$ endospores/5 g medium, P. penetrans was treated into soil either mixing with soil or spray onto soil surface for comparing of suppressive efficacy. When the antagonistic bacterium was treated by the former method, it suppressed more effectively Using P. penetrans at $3{\times}10^6$ endospores and mixing with soil method, suppression was compared among P. penetrans, $PASTORIA^{(R)}$(Japan) and $Fosthiazate^{(R)}$(Korea). P. penetrans was more potent than $PASTORIA^{(R)}$(Japan) and as similar as $Fosthiazate^{(R)}$(Korea). Therefore, these results suggested that P. penetrans can be used for controling of M. arenaria as biological control agent. Furthermore, thess results can be provided to develop environmentally-friendly nematicide.

Sludge generated in the production of ready-mixed concrete is classified as waste and processed at a high cost. In particular, small and medium-sized ready-mix manufacturer are burdened with such costs, and some companies are illegally processing them. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to suggest a method for recycled remicon sludge as a concrete block composition. When the remicon sludge is simply dried, the residual chemical admixture and ettringitee contained in the sludge are present, so that the compressive strength of the concrete block and the compressive strength after freezing and thawing are largely deteriorated to meet the quality standards of the concrete shore and retaining wall block It was not possible to do. As a method for satisfying the physical performance, it was found that the remicon sludge was calcined at a high temperature of about $900^{\circ}C$. to decompose ettringite and residual chemical admixture and then used it.

Polypyrrole (PPy) was made by an emulsion polymerization using iron (III) chloride ($FeCl_3$) as an initiator and dodecyl benzene sulfuric acid (DBSA) as an emulsifier and dopant. Poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO) was sulfonated by chlorosulfonic acid (CSA). The cathode was composed of $PPy^+DBS^-$ complex, conductor powder, and PPO or sulfonated poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (SPPO) as a binder or dopant. The charge-discharge performance of $PPy^+DBS^-/SPPO$ cathode was increased as the extent of about 50%, than $PPy^+DBS^-/PPO$. This is because SPPO played a role as a binder as well as a dopant. In addition, sulfonation brings out the increase of miscibility between PPy and SPPO, and the increase of contact area between cathode and electrolyte.

It was investigated to evaluate the characteristics of cement-flyash paste which was affected the replacement level, curing method and chemical admixtures. The strength of cement-flyash paste was lower than that of cement paste only and the differences increased with increasing the replacement level. However, in steam curing, the strength of cement-flyash pastes was improved and specially, the early strength was effectively increased. The inclusion of $Na_2SO_4$ increased the early strength of cement-flyash paste. In addition, the strength of concrete including 30% of fly ash and $Na_2SO_4$ has improved and obtained the highest strength compared to other concrete mixes.

The strength and durability of polymer-cement mortars were investigated. The specimens of polymer-cement mortar were prepared by using styrene-butadiene rubber(SBR) latex, ethylene-vinyl acetate(EVA) emulsion and polyacrylic ester(PAE) emulsion with various polymer-cement ratios(5, 10, 15, 20wt%). For the evaluation of durability of polymer-cement mortars, freezing-thawing, acid resistance and heat resistance tests were conducted. With an increase of polymer-cement ratio, the frost resistance of polymer-cement mortars was greatly improved, but acid and heat resistance were deteriorated. The compressive and flexural strengths of SBR polymer-cement mortars were improved with an increase of polymer-cement ratio, whereas those of EVA and PAE polymer-cement mortars reached maximum value at polymer-cement ratio of 10wt%.

Test specimens of polymer-cement concrete composites were prepared using styrene-butadiene rubber(SBR) latex, ethylenevinyl acetate(EVA) and polyacrylic ester(PAE) emulsions as polymer dispersions in cement modified system at constant slump($10{\pm}0.5cm$), then compressive and flexural strengths water absorption, pore size distribution, and microstructures were investigated. Compressive and flexural strengths of these composites were remarkably improved with an increase of polymer-cement ratio. These composites had a desirable pore size distribution against frost damage due to a small capillary pore volume. Continuous polymer film was able to form in higher than 15% of polymer cement ratio.
