In order to develop an effecive seismic strengthening metghod for existing concrete structure, structural tests of aramid FRP reinforced RC columns are performed. The test variables were strengthening methods of aramid sheet and strip. The test results were evaluated by comparing strength and energy dissipation capacities of non-reinforced and reinforced specimens. The test result comparison showed that aramid sheet reinforcement on RC column was evaluated as the most efficient way to increase strength and energy dissipation capacity.

Aramid fabrics were photooxidized by UV/$O_3$ irradiation. The UV irradiation caused the oxygen content of the aramid fabric surface to increase and reduced the surface zeta potential, coupled with improved water wettability. The modified aramid fabrics showed higher affinity to cationic dyes which may be resultd from the newly introduced electrostatic interaction between cationic dyes and anionic dyeing sites on the photooxidized surface layers. Although color fastness to both staining and rubbing were good to excellent, color fastness to shade change was moderate.

The uniformly dispersed p-Aramid chopped fiber in a variety of rubber was investigated. The cross section and surface properties in a variety of rubber were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), weight, tensile strength, cold resistance measurements. The 1mm p-Aramid chopped fiber better uniformly dispersed than the other p-Aramid chopped fiber. The p-Aramid of lmm chopped fiber showed excellent adhesion in rubber composite because of homogeneous dispersion. Consequently, the best 1mm chopped fiber and rubber improved the strength of the composite.

In this study, the dyeability of m-aramid fabric with various cationic dyes using two bath two step dyeing method were investigated. The exhaustion properties of Doracryl series recommend for aramid(Doracryl^® Red GL 100%(DR), Doracryl^® Blue GL 300%(DB), Doracryl^® Yellow XGRL 200%(DY)) and commercial cationic Synocryl series(Synocryl^® Red GRL ED(SR), Synocryl^® Blue GSL ED(SB), Synocryl^® Yellow 3RL ED(SY)) for acrylic were measured by using Dye-O-meter. In the presence of carrier, the exhaustions of Doracryl series were higher to those of Synocryl series and the opposite phenomenon was observed in the absence of carrier. And the severe migrations of cationic dyes to acetate, nylon and wool fabrics were observed without carrier.

최근 m-Aramid 섬유의 염색에 대한 연구가 진행되면서 기존의 원착법 및 초고온고압법 등 상업성이 낮거나 제약이 많았던 염색법에서 차츰 cationic dye를 이용한 염색법이 상용화되고 있다. m-Aramid 섬유는 amide기의 분자 간 수소결합으로 인하여 결정화도를 증가시킴으로서 고강도, 고탄성의 특성을 가질 수 있지만, 강력한 분자구조와 고결정성의 치밀구조로 인하여 염료가 섬유의 분자구조 내부로 확산, 염착되기 어려운 단점을 가지기도 한다. 따라서 m-Aramid 섬유를 침염법으로 염색 시, 섬유의 치밀구조를 이완시켜줄 수 있는 swelling agent가 중요하게 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 cationic dye를 이용하여 swelling agent의 영향성을 살펴보았다. 사용된 시료는 100% m-Aramid 섬유이며, C.I. Basic Yellow 28, Red 46, Blue 54를 사용하여, 욕비 1:10, $NaNO_3$ 7g/l의 조건으로 $130^{\circ}C{\times}60$분간 염색하였다. 이때 사용된 Swelling agent는 두 가지로 각각 1-phenoxypropan-2-ol(S1)과 N-methyl formanilide(S2)를 주성분으로 한다. 염색 시 염료의 농도는 0.5~7% o.w.f.이며, 염색 전 후 염욕을 UV-VIS을 통해 absorbance값을 측정하여 산출한 염착율과, CCM을 사용하여 최대흡수 파장에서 산출 된 K/S값을 비교 고찰 하였다. 각각의 염색물을 비교한 결과 Red 염료를 제외한 yellow 및 blue 모두 3% o.w.f. 염료농도까지 90% 이상의 흡착율을 보였으며, S1에 비해 S2의 경우 염착율이 근소하게 높은 결과를 보였다. 반면 K/S 값을 비교해보면, S2를 사용하였을 때 10%~60% 높은 K/S값을 보였다. 염착율은 비슷하지만 K/S값의 차이를 보이는 이유는 염색이 끝난 후 수세과정에서 섬유표면에 미고착된 염료들이 빠져나가는 것으로, 이를 통해 S2의 경우 섬유의 내부로 염료를 잘 고착시켜 줌으로서 수세안정성이 S1에 비에 우수한 결과를 보인 것으로 고찰된다.

The strength of adhesive joints employed in composite structures under cryogenic environments, such as LNG tanks, is affected by thermal residual stress generated from the large temperature difference between the bonding process and the operating temperature. Aramid fibers are noted for their low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and have been used to control the CTE of thermosetting resins. However, aramid composites exhibit poor adhesion between the fibers and the resin because the aramid fibers are chemically inert and contain insufficient functional groups. In this work, electrospun meta-aramid nanofiber-reinforced epoxy adhesive was fabricated to improve the interfacial bonding between the adhesive and the fibers under cryogenic temperatures. The CTE of the nanofiber-reinforced adhesives were measured, and the effect on the adhesion strength was investigated at single-lap joints under cryogenic temperatures. The fracture toughness of the adhesive joints was measured using a Double Cantilever Beam (DCB) test.

Aramid fibers are being used increasingly in a wide range of application due to low density, high specific strength, high modulus, and high thermal resistance. But owing to its special physical and chemical structures, it is sensitive to absorb the ultraviolet light which will degrade the fiber's useful mechanical properties and structure. In this paper, the sol-gel technique was used to improve the photo-stability of p-aramid fibers. $TiO_2$, modified $SiO_2$/$TiO_2$ sol were used as coating solutions. The influence of the such coatings on the photo-stability of p-aramid fiber was investigated by an accelerated photo-ageing method using xenon lamp. The photo-stability of p-aramid fiber showed obvious improvement after the modified silica binding coating. But the amorphous $TiO_2$ sol coatings showed a negative effect. After 144h light exposure, the modified silane binder-coated fibers showed less degradation in mechanical properties with the retained tensile strength greater than about 70% of the original value.

This study is to evaluate the ductility strengthening effect of aramid fiber sheets on piloti-type structures. Two piloti-type structure specimens were prepared and tested under statical cyclic lateral loads. The ductility strengthening effect was validated from the analysis of lateral load-displacement relationship, displacement ductility ratio, work damage index and torsion behavior. Test results showed that the post-peak behavior of piloti-type structures with columns strengthened with aramid fiber sheets tended to be ductile resulting from preventing shear failure and minimizing torsion due to the effective lateral confinement of column concrete by aramid fiber sheet. Consequently, the displacement ductility ratio and work damage index of piloti-type structures with columns with strengthened with aramid fiber sheets were 4.63 and 42.81 times higher than those of non strengthened piloti-type structures.

A series of poly(imide-aramid-sulfone)s with alternatingly introduced imide/aramid groups were prepared by reacting divinyl sulfone (DVS) and $N^1,N^4$-bis(4-(vinylsulfonyl)phenyl)terephthalamide (2) with pyromellitic diimide. Three model compounds, N-[2-(p-aminophnenylsulfonyl)ethyl]phthalimide (3), 2,2'-(2,2'-sulfonylbis(ethane-2,1-diyl))diisoindoline-1,3-dione (4), and N,N-bis(4-(2-(1,3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)ethylsulfonyl)phenyl)terephthalamide (5), resembling polymers were prepared with good yields by reacting p-aminophenyl vinyl sulfone, DVS, and 2 with phthalimide. Condensation polymerization was carried out by Michael-type addition reaction of the difunctional phthalimide group with the DVS group in the presence of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAH), resulting in poly(imide-aramid-sulfone)s 6-12 with moderate molecular weights and good yields. They were highly soluble in polar solvents such as N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, N-methylpyrrolidinone and tetrahydrofuran. The ratios of DVS/2 were 1/0, 3/1, 2/1, 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, and 0/1. Molecular weight and physical properties such as solubility, viscosity, and thermal properties of the polymers were examined.
