Aerospace industries are widely using honeycomb sandwich structures that it has high specific strength and stiffness, chemical material resistance and fatigue resistance. But, in repairing process of damaged areas, one of the problems is that delamination can be occurred in the sound areas during and/or after the exposure to the elevated curing temperature in case that the repair process is repeated. Therefore, this study was conducted Flatwise tensile, Drum peel and Long beam flexural strength tests to evaluate the degree of degradation of mechanical properties of the honeycomb sandwich structures by affecting thermal aging. As the results, the decrease of mechanical strength was observed at the specific specimen which is exposed over 50hrs at $127^{\circ}C$.

This paper is concerned with a fracture strength study of composite adhesive lap joints. The tensile and peel tests were carried out on specimen manufactured hybrid stacked composites such as the polyester and bamboo natural fiber layer. The main objective of the work was to test the failure strength of adhesive bonded joints using hybrid stacked composites with a polyester and bamboo natural fiber layer adjacent to the fiber orientation. From results, the load directional orientation, small amount and low thickness of bamboo natural fiber layer have a good effect on the tensile and peel strength of natural fiber reinforced composites. and these characters are have a great influence on fracture strength and failure shape of adhesive bonded joints using hybrid stacked composites in the difference of fiber orientation.

Thed effects of Ar or Oxygen RF plasma treatment on the adhesion behavior of Cr films to polyimide sub-strates have been investigated by using SEM, XRD, AES, and $90^{\circ}$peel test. By applying RF plasma treatment of the polyimide surface prior to metal deposition, the peel adhesion strength of Cu/Cr films sputtered onto the fully cured BPDA-PDA polyimide was highly increased from about 3g/mm to 90 ~ 100g/mm. Improved peel adhesion strength of Cr/polyimide interfaces due to RF plasma treatment was attributed to the contributions from surface cleaning, Cr-polyimide bonding at the interface, and force required for plastic deformation of the film. While the surface topology change of the polyimide caused by RF plasma treatment makes a little contri-bution to the improved adhesion.

This study was carried out to develop a new application field and obtain the basic data of citrus peel as waste in Jeju island and traditional Hanji for producing functional Hanji. The results measuring physical and optical properties, water vapor permeance and antibacterial activity are as follows. It was revealed that apparent density go as down but bulk raise up in the structural view of Hanji with increasing of the addition various Korean citrus peel (citrus unshiu, cheonggyun and hanrabong peel, and citrus unshiu peel powder) percentages, and that the density of Hanji added citrus unshiu peel was higher, but bulk was lower in compared with Hanji added other kinds of peel. Those Hanji added citrus unshiu peel, cheonggyun peel, hanrabong peel and citrus unshiu powder were very great not only in the strength (breaking length, burst index, tear index and folding endurance) but also in water vapor permeant rate in comparison with Hanji. The pHs of Hanji were neutrality (7 to 8). The brightness of the Hanji added various citrus peel percentages was low in compared to Hanji, and the 40% addition of hanrabong peel was the lowest. When 40% hanrabong peel was added to Hanji, it was very yellow in the color degree. When cheonggyun peel was added to Hanji manufacture, water vapor permeant rate was highly effective. It is known that vacant space of intrafiber was reduced by image analysis of Hanji and the additions of peel of citrus unshiu, cheonggyun and hanrabong were distributed equally in the interior of Hanji. The antibacterial activity of Hanji added citrus unshiu peel is more than 98%. After all, it would be able to increase utilization of Hanji, extensively. Namely, production of high quality Hanji added functional materials is expected for new valuable industry of citrus peel and Hanji.

Polymer substrate materials with low dielectric loss were obtained by fabricating the composite using dicyclopentadienyl bisphenol cyanate ester oligomer and polyphenylene ether (PPE). From the analysis of the curing reaction of oligomer and catalyst, it was observed that the optimum amount of catalyst was 0.02 phr of Zn content. It was applied to the fabrication of polymer composite. By changing oligomer/PPE weight ratio, the peel strength and the gel content of the fabricated composites were measured, and then, the dielectric constant and the dissipation factor were measured in the GHz frequency range. The amount of PPE affected the peel strength and the dielectric properties of composites. However, the amount of catalyst did not affect them at all. Resulting from all experiments, we obtained polymer composite laminates haying the peel strength of above 1 kN/m and the low dissipation factor of 0.004 at 1 GHz.

To study the optimal synthesis conditions of aqueous acrylic adhesive using emulsion polymerization, the effects of monomer, surfactant and initiator on the adhesive properties, such as conversion rate, particle size, peel strength, and glass transition temperature, were investigated. 2-EHA, n-BA and MMA were used as main monomers, 2-HEMA and AAc as functional monomers, SLS as surfactant and APS as initiator, respectively. The conversion rate was over 95% at 3.75% surfactant(SLS/monomer), 0.612% initiator(APS/monomer) and $82^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature. When the excess amount of surfactant or initiator was used, the peel strength represented decreasing tendency. The maximum conversion rate and peel strength were obtained at 65% 2-EHA/monomer, 20% BA/monomer, and 10% MMA/monomer.

To prepare acrylic type pressure-sensitive adhesive, quarter polymers were synthesized from butylacrylate (BA), 2-ethylhexylacrylate (2-EHA), methyl methacrylate (MMA), 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (2-HEMA). The quarter polymer was identified by FT-IR. Molecular weight was measured by Gel Pearmeation Chromatograhy. Also, viscosity, solid content and peel strength were investigated. The peel strength was $160g_f/25mm$ when the volume ratio of feed monomer to solvent was 1.3:1 and the ratio was relevant to commercial usage. The pot life of adhesive was 30 s at the 50 m/min of heat treatment rate, and it indicated that the minimum drying time was 30 s. Not only weathering resistance keep up peel strength $160{\sim}180g_f/25mm$ after 1000 h, but also no residual remains.

We invested effect of the keeping-time of uncured composite and thermal aging, of cured composite on adhesive strength for rubber-brass coated steel cord composite in this study. We also evaluated how the adhesive strength affects to tire endurance. Using PAD adhesion specimen, peel adhesive strength was measured. The uncured composite was kept for several days up to 35 days in factory. Cured composite was also kept for 5 and 10 days at $85^{\circ}C$ in dry oven. Peel adhesive strength was decreased with increasing keeping-time and showed lower value with increasing thermal aging time. The lower peel adhesive strength, the lower tire-endurance. This fact was caused by the humidity and thermal aging which affected in the decrease of adhesive strength of the rubber-steel cord composite and resulted in interface fracture between rubber and steel cord. This phenomenon was confirmed from SEM investigation and tire-endurance. It was just known that corrosion of steel cord's surface and aging of adhesive layer strongly affected to decrease of adhesive strength. This resulted in directly decreasing tire-endurance.
