Two different urethane acrylates (mono-acrylate and di-acrylate) were used to prepare unsaturated polyester-based hybrid gel-coats. The physical properties and surface characteristics of these gel-coats were investigated on the basis of the content and type of urethane acrylate. The set-to-touch time increased and the physical properties (surface hardness and tensile strength) decreased with an increase in the urethane acrylate content. However, the type of urethane acrylate did not affect these parameters. It was found that the optimal urethane acrylate content for the application of unsaturated polyester-based hybrid gel-coats is ~10 wt%.

In order to develope anti - static polyester resin which may be employed to dangerous circumstance with high organic vapor content, the effect of anti - static agents on the surface resistance and tensile strength of polyester resin were studied. Three organic anti - static agents and a conductive carbon black were adapted and used separately and together. The effects of anti - static agents, their contents, and synergic effect of anti - static agents were experimentally examined. Surface resistance and tensile strength of the polyester resin were decreased with the content of anti - static agents, and polyester resin with low surface resistance and relatively high tensile strength could be prepared by synergic effect of organic anti - static agent and carbon black.

The purposes of this study were to investigate the subjective wearing sensation of sleepwear, and to evaluate the comfort properties of fabrics used in the sleepwear. Design of experimental clothing was pajamas made with four types of woven fabrics: plain weave and satin weave made by cotton and polyester. The comfort properties were evaluated with respect to thermal retention, Qmax, moisture regain, water vapor transmission, and air permeability. The wear trials of experimental clothing were performed in two different environments, single-detached unit($23{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, $45%{\pm}3%$ R.H.) and apartment($27{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, $40{\pm}3%$ R.H), to evaluate microclimate temperature and humidity, and subjective wearing sensation. The results obtained from this study were as follows: 1. There were significant differences between the two environments on the clothing microclimate. 2. In the single detached unit environment, the microclimate temperature who wore cotton sleepwear was significantly higher than that of subjects wore the polyester sleepwear, whereas the microclimate humidity who wore polyester sleepwear was higher than that of subjects wore the polyester sleepwear. 3. In the apartment environment, the microclimate temperature who wore the polyester sleepwear showed higher than that of cotton sleepwear, whereas there was no significant difference between the cotton and polyester sleepwear on the microclimate humidity. 4 There were partially significant differences in subjective wearing sensation according to the fiber md weaving type of sleepwear regardless environment. 5. There were also partially significant correlations among the heat/moisture transmission properties of fabrics, the clothing microclimate and the subjective wearing sensation of sleepwear.

This study was carried out to investigate the changes of surface characteristics of polyester fabrics on the deposition and the removal of oily soils from polyester fabrics in detergency, The relations between the removal of soil and the changes of surface properties of polyester fabrics treated with water- and oil-repellent agents were discussed before and after various wash cycles. Two kinds of fluoropolymers were selected as water-and oil-repellent finishing agents. The effects of water- and oil-repellent finishes were determined by the water repellency and oil repellency. The surface properties of untreated and treated polyester fabrics were evaluated with respect to contact angle and wicking time. The treatment of polyester fabrics with fluoropolymers improved efficiently water repellency, oil repellency, contact angle and wicking time. But those properties were greatly decreased after 3 times of wash cycles in detergency The deposition of oily soils on the untreated fabrics was drastically increased with increasing of wash cycles. The deposition and the removal of oily soils from fabrics treated with fluoropolymer having hydrophobic components were very low after various wash cycles. The deposition and the removal of oily soils on the fabrics treated with fluoropolymer having hydrophilic components were high comparatively after various wash cycles. Even though the surface properties of treated fabrics were greatly decreased with the increasing of wash cycles, the remains of oily soils on the fabrics were lower than those of untreated fabrics in various wash cycles. But the remains of soils were drastically increased after 10 times of wash cycles in any cases.

최근 들어서 소비성향의 고급화 추세와 고기능성 및 쾌적성의 추구는 발수성의 개발로 이어져왔다. Polyester, Nylon 등 다양한 합성섬유소재의 발전으로 발수기능이 상품가치의 중요한 요소로 자리잡고 있다. 더 나아가 표면과 이면이 서로 다른 특성을 가지도록 유도하여 편면기능성을 부여하는 가공을 응용한다면 더욱 더 고부가가치를 기대할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 불소계로 발수 처리된 Polyester직물 및 Nylon/PU 혼방직물에 저온 플라즈마를 출력 50W, 1, 3, 5, 7 분 처리하여 편발수성을 검토하였다. 불소계 발수제로 코팅처리한 Polyester직물의 경우 5분간 Plasma처리하면 접촉각이 미처리 시료의 $149^{\circ}$에서 처리 후, 앞면 $71.56^{\circ}$, 뒷면 $126.94^{\circ}$,Nylon/PU 혼방직물의 경우에는 $155.3^{\circ}$에서 앞면 $63.24^{\circ}$, 뒷면 $139.26^{\circ}$로 크게 편면 친수화 되었다. 그 결과로 볼 때 플라즈마처리에 의해 편면발수 가공으로 서의 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. SEM 관찰을 통해 Polyester직물 및 Nylon/PU혼방 직물에 플라즈마 처리한 후 처리시간에 따른 펴면의 발수가공 층이 파괴되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 표면에서의 발수효과가 플라즈마처리에 의해 친수화가 진행된 결과와 일치한다.

In order to understand the structure of the existing aggregate in the nanocomposite, which has been prepared with polyester and trisilanolisobutyl polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane(TBPOSS), laser light scattering(LLS) and SEM-EDS were applied to its 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol solution and original sample, respectively. Although aggregate particles appeared as spherical shape of the average diameter of 120 nm in SEM image, they were not microgels but almost linear copolymer chains ($M_w=2.3{\times}10^6\;g/mol$) alternating 320 molecules of TBPOSS with polyester subchains. It has been microphase-separated from the matrix polyester due to the difference of chemical composition. As the matrix, polyester chain of $M_w=4.0{\times}10^4\;g/mol$ had averagely 2.5 molecules of TBPOSS per chain. It is also found that about 93% of total TBPOSS molecules existed in matrix phase and the residual 7% in spherically aggregated phase.

Polyester yarns and fabrics containing three levels of $TiO_2$ delusterant were hydrolyzed with NaOH and examined for physical and morphological changes. The mechanical propertis and hand values of alkaline hydrolyzed polyester fabrics were measured using KES-FB system. Also, the relationship between the morphology and the mechanical property of alkaline hydrolyzed polyester fabrics was analyzed. The results are as follows: 1. At an initial stage of alkaline treatment, the concentration of $TiO_2$ did not affect the weight loss of the treated yarns. But by increasing treatment time, the effect of the concentration of $TiO_2$ on the weight loss of the fiber became more pronounced. The weight loss were increased in the following order; fulldull> semidull> clear 2. The effect of hydrolysis on yarn tensile strength seems to be more related to the size of the pits on the fibers rather than the number of pits. 3. Axially oriented pits occurred along the hydroyzed, delustered fiber surfaces, while such pitting was absent on hydrolyzed fiber containing no $TiO_2$. The number of voids across the surface of a fiber increased with an increase in the amount of TiOa incorporated into the fibers. The size of the voids depended on the treatment time of hydrolysis rather than the concentration of TiOa. 4. The mechanical properties and hand values of polyester fabrics were changed by alkaline treatment but were identical regardless of the concentration of TiOa. While the mechanical properties of polyester fabrics depended on the structural change of the fibers and the yarns within the fabrics as the fiber diameter became progressively smaller rather than the size and number of pits.

For the purpose of development of polymeric material for marine applications, the effects of silica and chopped glass fiber on tensile strength of polyester resin were studied. A series of experiments were performed with different contents of silica and chopped glass fiber. Tensile strength of polyester resin was increased with the contents of unmodified glass fiber, and decreased with that of silica. The surfaces of silica and chopped glass fiber were modified with coupling agent at different concentrations, and the modification showed positive effect on the increase of tensile strength of polyester resin. Synergistic effect on the tensile strength of polyester resin was observed by modified silica and chopped glass fiber.
