이 연구에서는 전기화학적 기법을 사용하여 혼합콘크리트의 일종인 palm oil fuel ash(POFA) 콘크리트의 부식저항성을 평가하였다. POFA는 야자수로부터 야자유를 정제하고 난후 야자수 재로 추출되어진 산업 재생 폐기물을 일컫는다. POFA 콘크리트의 기본 물성 특성분석을 위해서 초기재령에서의 POFA 콘크리트의 압축강도, 슬럼프, 중량감소율, 블리딩 및 팽창비 특성 분석실험을 수행하였다. 한편, 내구성 특성분석을 위해서 염소이온침투시험 및 중성화 침투시험도 수행하였다. 마지막으로 전기화학적 균열치유기법을 사용하여, 가압전압 특성분석, 갈바닉 전류특성분석 및 선형분극저항 평가 등의 부식저항성 평가를 실시하였다. 실험 결과로부터, 장기재령의 강도, 블리딩, 슬럼프 특성, 팽창비, 염소이온 확산성, 탄산화 저항성 및 부식저항성의 향상 효과가 활성화 되어진 POFA 콘크리트의 포졸란 반응에 기인하여 이루어지고 있음을 확인하였다. 따라서 POFA 콘크리트는 그린-재생 자원으로서 시멘트계 대체 결합재로서의 이용가능성이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the biological stability of the zirconia/alumina composite abutment by histologic and radiographic examination in clinical cases. 17 partially edentulous patients (5 men and 12 women, mean age 47) were treated with 37 implants. The implants were placed following the standard two-stage protocol. After a healing period of 3 to 6 months, zirconia/alumina composite abutments were connected. All radiographs were taken using paralleling technique with individually fabricated impression bite block, following insertion of the prosthesis and at the 3-, 6-, 12 month re-examinations. After processing the obtained images, the osseous level was calculated using the digital image in the mesial and distal aspect in each implant. An ANOVA and t-test were used to test for difference between the baseline and 3-, 6-, 12 months re-examinations, and for difference between maxilla and mandible. Differences at P <0.05 were considered statistically significant. For histologic examination, sample was obtained from the palatal gingiva which implant functioned for 12 months. Sections were examined under a light microscope under various magnifications. Clinically, no abutment fracture or crack as well as periimplantitis was observed during the period of study. The mean bone level reduction(${\pm}standard$ deviation) was 0.34 rom(${\pm}\;0.26$) at 3-months, 0.4 2mm(${\pm}\;0.30$) at 6-months, 0.62 mm(${\pm}\;0.28$) at 12-months respectively. No statistically significant difference was found between baseline and 3-, 6-, 12-months re-examinations (p > 0.05). The mean bone level reduction in maxilla was 0.33(${\pm}0.25$) at 3-months, 0.36(${\pm}0.33$) at 6-months, 0.56(${\pm}0.26$) at 12-months. And the mean bone level reduction in mandible was 0.35(${\pm}0.27$) at 3-months, 0,49(${\pm}0.27$) at 6-months, 0.68(${\pm}0.30$) at 12-months. No statistical difference in bone level reduction between implants placed in the maxilla and mandible. Histologically, the height of the junctional epithelium was about 2.09 mm. And the width was about 0.51 mm. Scattered fibroblasts and inflammatory cells, and dense collagen network with few vascular structures characterized the portion of connective tissue. The inflammatory cell infiltration was observed just beneath the apical end of junctional epithelium and the area of direct in contact with zirconia/alumina abutment. These results suggest the zirconia/alumina composite abutment can be used in variable intraoral condition, in posterior segment as well as anterior segment without adverse effects.
