The objective of this study was to analyze effects of aging time on property degradation of super austenitic stainless steel of PRE 52.8 and super duplex stainless steel of PRE 48.7. To analyze corrosion properties based on aging time, a critical pitting temperature test was performed in a solution of 6% FeCl₃ + 1% HCl and an anodic polarization test was performed in deaerated 0.5N HCl + 1N NaCl solution at a temperature of 50 ℃. Surface hardness was measured to analyze mechanical properties. It was found that corrosion properties and mechanical properties deteriorated rapidly as aging time increased. Critical pitting temperature had the most effect on critical aging time at which property changes occurred rapidly, followed by pitting potential and hardness. This trend was found to be closely related to the fraction of sigma phase. Rate of sigma phase formation was found to be significantly faster in duplex stainless steel than in austenitic stainless steel.

Private electrical facilities are judged whether it is suitable for the insulation aging condition of their incoming underground cables using DC leakage current test method. In the case where the service point of utility is the secondary side of cut out switch installed in the electric pole, there is a problem that it is difficult to separate the lightning arresters(LA) because of their high position of the pole. Therefore, the field test voltage is applied at value lower than DC 30 kV, which are stated in the inspection guideline. However, this test could reduced the insulation performance of the LA by accelerating the electrical stress of the metal oxide varistor element in the pre-breakdown region. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between the DC test voltage and the leakage current using the non-destructive DC high voltage equipment with leakage current measurement function. The results show that the leakage current increases sharply above the specified test voltage. As a consequence, it could be contributed to improve insulation aging inspection method by selecting the possible test area on the VI characteristic curve of the pre-breakdown area of the LA.

LED TV integration test unit are the equipment for testing LED BLU as LED BLU's operation, error check, AGING work. The previous test unit were inconvenient because it must change test unit in production line according to LCD's kind and size. This paper develops by integration style test unit that can accommodate various LED TV BLU model of 32 ~ 52 inch that is not one LED TV BLU model. We make that output current is various to dimension of 80 ~ 215 mA. We make functions that are LED BLU state check, Diming and heat occurrence mitigation. Also we develop firmware program and that the program can be upgraded and that can support new panel.

The purpose of this study is to find out the differences in between national and private medical institutions' perception towards aging, and to analyze how their different perceptions effect each of their later life preparation. A total of 783 questionnaires were distributed among national and private medical institution workers. Frequency analysis, t-test, hierarchical regression analysis was conducted from the collected data via SPSS 21.0. The results were the following. Firstly, there was a partial difference in their perception of aging, government policy satisfaction and later life preparation. National medical institutions were better than private medical institutions in all three terms. Also, perception of aging and government policy satisfaction were higher-than-average in both institutions, but in later life preparation, both scored lower-than-average. Secondly, the factors affecting preparation for aging were significantly different between these two institutions. Also, how each factors affected later life preparation was partially different. In conclusion, effects of factor was difference in aging preparation between national and private medical institutions workers. We need to provide as basic data for education and policy making for aging preparation.

This study was carried out for evaluating correlation of aging level and deformation resistance of asphalt mixtures conditioned by artificial aging treatment. The specimens were made of the short-term aged loose asphalt mixture which was kept in a convection oven at $154^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours, and then were artificially aged at $110^{\circ}C$ for 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours for long-term aging. Deformation strength ($S_D$) and large molecular size ratio (LMS(%)) were measured after short-term and each long-term aging treatment to evaluate aging extents of each mixture with aging time using GPC(Gel-permeation chromatograph) test. It is shown that the $S_D$ and LMS(%) were increased with aging time increment, and that LMS(%) quantity and $S_D$ have relatively good correlation each other. This study found that the aged asphalt mixture had better resistance against rutting and it was possible to estimate rutting characteristics of asphalt mixtures by using LMS(%) without a binder recovery.

Post curing effects are estimated by specimen tests. Propellant specimen accelerated aging tests are performed when post curing is estimated to be complete and the coefficients of Arrhenius aging equations are acquired. Simulated motors with cylindrical grain are designed and fabricated to confirm the application. Accelerated aging tests are conducted, and aged properties are measured and estimated for the inner bore, center and bond parts of the grain. The measured aging ratios of the modulus are compared with the ones predicted by the equations. As the results, the accelerated aging equations predict well the propellant aging trends; however, some differences are observed at the bond part. Therefore, the specimen extraction part must be carefully chosen to suit the test purpose when a rocket motor grain is used for the aging test.

This paper presents results of experimental investigations on natural ester regarding the breakdown strength. Aging of insulating material in a pole transformer has been studied by performing accelerated thermal aging test. Sealed aging test vessels containing copper, laminated core, Krapt paper and insulating oil(Natural oil and Mineral oil) were aged at $140^{\circ}C$ for 30days. Compared to the conventional transformer oil, electric property of the natural ester fluid is excellent.

In this paper, the silicon rubber insulator for transmission line was experimented for 1,000 hours aging test in salt-fog condition. To evaluate and examine the aging properties of silicon rubber insulator for test, the leakage current of surface was measured. Also hydrophobicity and scanning electron microscopy were compared with initial and aged sample respectively. Above results, we can confirm that the surface properties of silicon rubber insulator easily aged by salt-fog condition.

To elucidate the effect of aging time on resistance to localized corrosion of hyper duplex stainless steel, a double-loop electrochemical potentiokinetic reactivation test a potentiodynamic anodic polarization test, a scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive spectroscope analysis, and a thermodynamic calculation were conducted. With an increase in aging time, sigma phases are precipitated much more than chi phases due to the meta-stable chi phase acting as a transition phase. As aging time at $850^{\circ}C$ increases, the corrosion resistance decreases owing to an increase in Cr, Mo and W depleted areas adjacent to the intermetallic phases such as sigma phases and chi phases.

Effect of an accelerated iso-thermal aging (375 degree C x 66days, 375 degree C x 200days) on elastic-plastic fracture resistance curve were examined in SA533B low alloy steel. Fracture toughness test are conducted by unloading compliance method at room temperature. But the apparent negative crack growth phenomenon, usually arise in partial unloading compliance test. The phenomenon of negative crack growth may be eliminated by the offset technique. There is no effect of aging on J sub(IC) and dJ/da in iso-thermal aged (375 degree C x 66 days) specimen, but there is very little effect in iso-thermal aged (375 degree C x 200 days) specimen.
