Water-dispersed pigment is on-going study for without air pollution in the textile and print industry. Primer treatment is essential for the substrate to improve the printing quality of eco-friendly water-dispersed pigment ink. Otherwise in the case of untreated primer, the water-dispersed pigment ink will dry onto the surface and cause defective images. This study was conducted on film substrate coating (primer) to fix eco-friendly water-dispersed pigment ink on film substrate. The drying, bleeding, and color strength of the pigment ink were examined depending on the composition and mixing ratio of the coating solution. The mixing ratio of silica gel in the coating film is increased to 0, 0.5, 1, 2 and 3 and results that DK-1-3 of silica gel ratio of 1 showed the lowest bleeding such as 52%, the letter thickness of 0.76mm and DK-1-5 of SG ratio of 3 showed the highest bleeding such as 304%, the letter thickness of 2.02mm. The mixing ratio of SPA in the coating film is increased to 2.5, 5, 7.5, SPA ratio of 7.5 has a bleeding ratio of 9% and letter thickness of 0.544mm. It showed the closest value to 0.5mm. According to the result, the optimal mixing ratio of binder, polymer coagulant, silica gel is 100:7.5:1.

High fluidity concrete(HFC) requires high dosage of superplasticizer to acquire sufficient fluidity, and high contents of fine powder and viscosity enhancing admixtures to resist segregation. The use of high amount of admixtures to make HFC at batcher plant in ready mixed concrete company is one of the reasons to raise the manufacturing cost of HFC. For this reason, new type of manufacturing method of HFC are described using both flowing concrete method and segregation reducing superplasticizer(SRS) in order to gain economical profit and offer the convenience for quality control.. As dosage of melamine based superplasticizer increases, it shows that fluidity and bleeding increase, while air contents and ratio of segregation resistance decrease. It also shows that addition of viscosity agent into superplasticizer reduce bleeding and improve segregation resistance of concrete. Dosage of AE agent into superplasticizer containing viscosity agent recovers loss of air contents during flowing procedure. Combination of proper contents of superplasticizer, viscosity agent and AE agent make possible to develope segregation reducing type superplasticizer. Compressive strength of high fluidity concrete applying flowing method with it is higher than that of base concrete. No differences of compressive strength between compacting methods are found. For the estimation of construction cost of high fluidity concreting using segregation reducing type superplasicizer, under same strength levels, although material cost of high fluidity concrete is somewhat higher than that of plain concrete due to segregation reducing type superplasticizer cost, labor cost and equipment cost of high fluidity concrete is cheaper than that of plain concrete. However, based on the strength differences, high fluidity concrete shows lower material cost, labor cost and equipment cost than that of plain concrete due to decreasing in size of member and re-bar caused by high strength development of concrete.

In this study, fluorine-silicate hybrid type crack reducing agent(FS) consisted of fluorine and silicate compounds applied to concrete mix(specification : 25-30-18) between 0.5% and 2.0% at intervals of 0.5% based on cement weight. Experiments for material properties of concrete such as slump, air content and bleeding with elapsed time were performed. Experiment and elucidation for shrinkage crack resistance as well as adiabatic hydration temperature were also carried out. It was appeared that FS addition contributed to lower bleeding and hydration temperature without disturbance of fresh properties of concrete such as slump and air content compared to non-added concrete. Especially, shrinkage crack resistance of concrete resulted from plastic and drying shrinkage could be effectively reduced by the addition of FS ranging from 1.0% to 1.5%.

High fluidity concrete needs high dosage of superplasticizer to acquire sufficient fluidity and high contents of fine powder and viscosity agents to prevent segregation. But it requires high manufacturing cost and has difficult in quality control. Therefore, in this paper, determination of optimal mixture proportion of segregation type superplasticizer for high fluidity concrete and manufacturing high fluidity concrete by applying developed segregation reducing type superplasticizer are discussed using flowing concrete method. According to test results, as dosage of superplasticizer increases, it shows that fluidity and bleeding increase, while air contents and ratio of segregation resistance decrease. It also shows that adding viscosity agent into it reduce bleeding and improve segregation resistance. Dosage of AE agent into it containing viscosity agent recovers loss of air contents during flowing procedure. Combination of proper contents of superplasticizer, viscosity agent and AE agent make possible to develope segregation reducing type superplasticizer Compressive strength of high fluidity concrete applying flowing method with it is higher than that of base concrete. No differences of compressive strength between compacting methods are found.

Since the cement industry is expected to face serious setbacks in the near future associated with environmental concerns. With the advent of new technologies and increased public awareness about global environmental issues, the cement industry is actively seeking to adopt new technologies as part of an effort to diversity its resources. This study is designed to assess the fundamental properties of zeolite cement concrete which consists mainly of natural zeolite, which is known for removal of and harmful gas, ion exchange capacity removing cation contaminant including heavy metals and ammonia, absorptive capacity and molecular sieving effect together with excellent insulation capacity as a porous material, and recently draws much attention for its possibility as an alternative material to cement. The study was conducted to show the compressive strength of concrete, slump, bleeding and air volume according to the changes of natural zeolite and alkali activator(NaOH). As a result of measuring the compressive strength of natural zeolite concrete, it was almost 40MPa and displayed similar to general concrete in the tests of slump, bleeding and air volume, with which it was considered that it may be used as a future high performance, high performance construction material.

This paper describes a design of the helium-recondensing system utilizing cascade Roebuck refrigerators. Superconducting generator or motor has the superconducting field winding in its rotor that should be continuously cooled by cryogen. Since liquid helium transfer from the stationary system to the rotor is problematic, cumbersome, and inefficient, the novel concept of a rotating helium-recondensing system is contrived. The vaporized cold helium inside the rotor is isothermally compressed by centrifugal force and expanded sequentially in cascade refrigerators until the helium is recondensed at 4.2K. There is no helium coupling between the rotor and the stationary liquid helium storage. Thermodynamic analysis of the cascade refrigeration system is performed to determine the key design parameters. The loss mechanisms are also explained to identify entropy generation that degrades the performance of the system.

The physical properties of freshly mixed steel fiber reinforced recycled concrete(SFRRC) were_investigated. Physical state and quality of fresh concrete were monitored batch by batch. the properties of freshly mixed SFRRC were determined in terms of slump, air content, superplasticizer, and bleeding ratio. Concrete mixtures were produced for three kinds of aggregate proportions. So, the experimental variables are various aggregate proportions, steel fiber contents(0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5%) and steel length(30, 50, 60mm). From experimental results, optimum s/a by various experimental variables, variations of the slump by the air contents, and optimum superplasticizer to decrease unit water were presented.

This study investigated influence of organic fiber type and contents on engineering properties of concrete. Test showed that increase of fiber contents decreased fluidity of fresh concrete and it was even worse in concrete adding cellulose fiber. It is decided that concrete containing more than proper level of fiber should be considered. In addition, concrete adding more fiber, nylon and cellulose, resulted in increase of air content but it was satisfied in aimed value. Bleeding capacity of concrete containing more fiber significantly declined and setting time of that was also slightly retarded. For the properties of strength, both compressive and tensile strength of fiber containing concrete were indicated at similar value to control concrete. However, it is clear that if those concrete containing fiber revised the value of increased air contents at fresh state, the strength value of that would be slightly increased.
