Polymeric composites can be subjected to a wide variety of environmemtal conditions in practical use. One of most important conditions to be considered in the stuctural design using such materials is the miisture envirnment. Thus the moisture effect on interlaminar fracture toughness $G_IC$ and $G_IIC$ of CFRP(carbon fiber reinforced plastic) composed of carbon fibers and epoxy resin is studied in this paper. Specimens were first processed in 25, 50, $80^{\circ}C$ flesh water and $25^{\circ}C$ sea water for various periods of time. After that, the water absorption and fracture toughness tests were performed under laboratory atmosphere. As result, the specimen processed in $80^{\circ}C$ flesh water indicates the highest misture absorbing capability, the second in $50^{\circ}C$ flesh water, the third in $25^{\circ}C$ sea water, and the specimen in $25^{\circ}C$ flesh water does the lowest. The interlaminar fracture toughness $G_IC$ increases, approaches to the maximum, and decreases as the immersion time increases. In case of interlaminar $G_IIC$, the value of the specimen processed in $80^{\circ}C$ flesh water turns out to be higher than others. In addition, the scanning electron micrographs(SEM) of fracture surfaces were also examined in order to explain the mechanism of fracture.

The optical diffuser for direct-lit LED backlight unit was prepared by using extrusion compounding followed by thermoforming process. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with superior optical characteristics and polycarbonate (PC) with good thermal property were used as base resins, and crosslinked polystyrene (PS) and PMMA beads as diffusing agents were incorporated into resin matrix to derive light scattering and diffusing action. In the compounded plate, the diffusing beads were observed to be dispersed uniformly and distinctly in the continuous phase. The inclusion of polymeric beads up to 3 wt% substantially enhanced the optical characteristics such as luminance, luminance uniformity, haze for the diffuser. Two different diffusers of PC and PMMA-based compound with various compositions were compared in terms of measured optical, thermal, and mechanical properties, which would be expected to be utilized for the industrial application of LED backlight unit.

Steels for automotive fuel tank require unique properties such as corrosion resistance for fuel, welding for joining, forming for press, and painting for exterior. Recently, automakers have been requiring excellent seam weldable steels to enhance manufacturing productivity of fuel tank. Thus, POSCO developed a new type of functional steels coated with nano-composite thin layer on Zn-Ni plating steels. The nano-composite coating solution was prepared by mechanical fine dispersion of solutions consisting of polymeric resin and nano-composite materials in aqueous media. The composite solution was coated on the plating steel surface by using roll coater and cured through induction furnace. These new developed plating steels were evaluated for quality performances such as seam and spot weldability, press formability, and corrosion resistance. These new functional steels coated with nano-composite layer exhibited excellent seam weldability and press formability. Detailed discussion of coating solution and experimental results suggest that nano-sized composite dispersion as coating layer plays a key role in enhancing the quality performance.

The usage of fiber-reinforced polymer materials increases in the construction sector due to their advantages in terms of high mechanical strength, lightness, corrosion resistance, low density and high strength/density ratio, low maintenance and painting needs, and high workability. In this study, it is aimed to improve mechanical properties of GFRP box profiles, produced by pultrusion method, by filling the polymer concrete into them. Within the scope of study, hybrid use of polymer concrete produced with GFRP box profiles was investigated. Hybrid pressure and bending specimens were produced by filling polymer concrete (polyester resin manufactured with natural sand and stone chips) into GFRP box profiles having different cross-sections and dimensions. Behavior of the produced hybrid members was investigated under bending and compression tests. Hollow GFRP_xx profiles, polymer-filled hybrid members, and nominative polymeric concrete specimens were tested as well. The behavior of the specimens under pressure and bending tests, and their load bearing capacities, deformations and changes in toughness were observed. According to the test results; It was deduced that hybrid design has many advantages over its component materials as well as superior physical and mechanical properties.

The incorporation of nanoplatelets in composite and polymeric materials represents a recent and innovative approach, holding substantial promise for diverse property enhancements. This study focuses on the application of nanocomposites in the production of sports equipment, particularly soccer balls, aiming to bridge the gap between theoretical advancements and practical implications. Addressing the longstanding challenge of suboptimal interaction between carbon nanofillers and epoxy resin in epoxy composites, this research pioneers inventive solutions. Furthermore, the investigation extends into unexplored territory, examining the integration of glass fiber/epoxy composites with nanoparticles. The incorporation of nanomaterials, specifically expanded graphite and graphene, at a concentration of 25.0% by weight in both the epoxy structure and the composite with glass fibers demonstrates a marked increase in impact resistance compared to their nanomaterial-free counterparts. The research transcends laboratory experiments to explore the practical applications of nanocomposites in the design and production of sports equipment, with a particular emphasis on soccer balls. Analytical techniques such as infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy are employed to scrutinize the surface chemical structure and morphology of the epoxy nanocomposites. Additionally, an in-depth examination of the thermal, mechanical, viscoelastic, and conductive properties of these materials is conducted. Noteworthy findings include the efficacy of surface modification of carbon nanotubes in preventing accumulation and enhancing their distribution within the epoxy matrix. This optimization results in improved interfacial interactions, heightened thermal stability, superior mechanical properties, and enhanced electrical conductivity in the nanocomposite.

상업적으로 이용되는 고분자계 치과용 수복재의 문제점인 중합시 나타나는 부피 수축을 감소시키기 위해 (2,2-비스[4-(2-하이드록시-3-메타크릴로일옥시프로폭시)페닐] 프로판) (bis-GMA), 유도체인 (2,2-비스[3-메틸, 4-(2-하이드록시-3-메타크릴로일옥시프로폭시)페닐] 프로판) (DMBis-GMA)와 (2,2-비스[3,5-디메틸, 4-(2-하이드록시-3-메타크릴로일옥시프로폭시)페닐] 프로판) (TMBis-GMA)를 합성하고 이를 희석제, 스파이로 오쏘카보네이트, 무기 충진재와 혼합하여 새로운 고분자계 치과용 수복재를 제조하였다. Bis-GMA 유도체/Bis-GMA 유도체/희석제 혼합계들 중에서 Bis-GMA/TMBis-GMA/TEGDMA 계의 중합 수축률이 가장 작았다. 이혼합계에 스파이로 오쏘카보네이트를 첨가함으로써 중합 수축률은 더욱 감소하였다. 최소의 중합 수축률을 나타내는 레진 단량체 혼합물을 사용하여 치과용 수복재를 제조한 결과 중합 수축률은 $0.7\%$로 기존 수복재의 중합 수축률 $2.5\%$에 비해 크게 감소하였다. 또 수복재의 기계적 강도는 기존 소재와 비슷하였지만 중합이 완료되는데 필요한 시간은 지연되었다.

Vegetable oil은 자연 유래 물질로 낮은 가격 및 친환경적이라는 장점으로 최근 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 vegetable oil 내의 이중결합의 낮은 반응성으로 인해 고분자 합성의 기반 물질로 사용하기 위해서는 반응성이 높은 관능기로 치환하여 사용하는 경우가 많다. Tung oil은 ${\alpha}$-eleostearic acid를 주성분으로 하는데, 이 구조는 3개의 이중결합이 공명구조 형태로 되어있기 때문에 다른 vegetable oil과는 달리 높은 반응성을 보인다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 tung oil을 styrene 및 divinylbenzene 등의 monomer와 양이온 중합을 통해 tung oil의 관능기 치환 과정이 없는 열경화성 수지를 합성하였으며, 각 monomer의 조성이 합성된 열경화성 수지에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 열적 기계적 물성을 측정하였다. 그 결과, tung oil-styrene-divinybenzene copolymer는 단일 Tg를 갖는 homogeneous한 열경화성 고분자를 형성하는 것을 확인하였으며, 기계적 물성의 변화를 통해 tung oil 및 styrene은 soft segment로써 합성된 copolymer에 elastic한 성질을 부여하고, divinylbenzene은 hard segment로 작용하여 합성된 copolymer에 brittle한 성질을 부여하는 것을 확인하였다.

$Y_{2-x}Gd_xO_3:Eu$, phosphors for plasma display panel(PDP), were prepared by Pechini method which use yttriun chloride, gadolinium chloride, and europium oxide as starting materials. This method is a different way to the synthesis of europium(Eu)-doped phosphors, and it consists of the formation of a polymeric resin obtained by polyesterification between metal chelate compounds and a polyfunctional alcohol. This needs lower temperature than solid-state synthetic method. The prepared $Y_{2-x}Gd_xO_3:Eu$ phosphor particles had spherical shape and coherence. The luminescence intensity of $Y_{2-x}Gd_xO_3:Eu$ phosphor particles increased according to the increase of gadolinium(Gd) content(to 0.8mol%), and $Y_{1.2}Gd_{0.8}O_3:Eu$ phosphors had the highest luminescence intensity under vacuum ultra violet(VUV) excitation. The optimum concentration of Eu in the phosphor and optimum calcination temperature was 3wt% and $1100^{\circ}C$. The prepared phosphors were consist of particle, and its size was between 100nm and 150nm. Among the different polyfunctional alcohols, diethylene glycol(DEG) improved the luminescence intensities of phosphors more than other additives. The Pechini method proved that it is demonstrated to be suitable for the synthesis of phosphors used in PDP.
