The critical fracture energy and failure mechanisms of GF/PP composites are investigated in the temperatures range of the ambient temperature to $-50^{\circ}C$ The critical fracture energy increase as fiber volume fraction ratio increased The critical fracture energy shows a maximum at ambient temperature and it tends to decrease as temperature goes up. Major failure mechanisms can be classfied such as fiber matrix debonding, fiber pull-out and/or delamination and matrix deformation.

본 연구에서는 CNT표면에 공유결합으로 기능성기를 도입하는 화학적 방법을 사용하여 PP/MWNT 복합재를 제조하였으며, 기능성기가 도입된 CNT를 용액-용융 블랜딩 방법을 이용하여 탄소나노튜브를 분산시켰다. 탄소나노튜브 표면에 기능성기를 도입한 경우가 상대적으로 분산도가 양호하였다.

This paper investigates experimentally the fire resistance performance and spatting resistance of high performance reinforced concrete column member subjected to fire containing polypropylene fiber(PP fiber) and cellulose fiber(CL fiber). An increase in PP fiber and CL fiber contents, respectively resulted in a reduction of fluidity due to fiber ball effect. Air content is constant with m increase in fiber content. Compressive strength reached beyond 50 MPa. Based on fire resistance test, severe failure occurred with control concrete specimen, which caused exposure of reinforcing bar. No spall occurred with specimen containing PP fiber. This is due to the discharge of internal vapour pressure. Use of CL fiber superior to control concrete in the side of spatting resistance, localized failure at comer of specimen was observed. Corner of specimen had deeper neutralization than surface of specimen. Specimen containing PP fiber had the least damaged area due to spatting. Neutralization depth ranged between 6 and 8 mm Residual compressive strength of specimen containing PP fiber maintained 40%, which is larger than control concrete with 20% of residual strength. Specimen containing CL fiber had 25% or residual strength.

This study analyzed fire resistance characteristics of high strength concrete according to changes in curing method and PP fiber content, and the results are as follows. First in case of standard curing, spalling was prevented at PP fiber content of 0.05 % or higher. Autoclave and steam curing showed prevention of spalling at content of 0.1 % or higher. For residual compressive strength, measurement of strength for plain was impossible due to spalling phenomenon. A satisfactory trend was shown with increase in PP fiber content with the strength of about 30 MPa.

This paper describes the dielectric characteristics of composite dielectric film for pulsed power capacitors. The relative electric permittivity(${\varepsilon}'$) and the dielectric dissipation factor(tan$\delta$) were measured for polypropylene (PP) membranes, kraft paper for capacitors(CP) and composite dielectric films(PP+CP), respectively, in a frequency range of $1{\sim}10^4$[Hz], and in temperatures ranging from -50[$^{\circ}C$] to 110[$^{\circ}C$]. As a result, the variation of the electric permittivity was observed similarly for PP and CP. Dielectric dispersion was observed in frequency domain in PP, CP and composite dielectric films.

Polypropylene/multi-walled carbon nanotube(PP/MWCNT) composites along with various MWCNT contents up to 20 wt% were prepared by a twin screw extruder. Nanocomposites having 20 wt% MWCNT as a master batch(M/B) were diluted with PP by way of melt compounding. The electrical/thermal conductivity, morphology, thermal/viscoelastic/mechanical properties were investigated with the variation of MWCNT contents. Also, we compared some properties between 1-step PP/MWCNT and the diluted PP/MWCNT composites. The percolation threshold of electrical and thermal conductivity was measured at about 3 wt% MWCNT. And conductivity of diluted PP/MWCNT composites were superior to those of PP/MWCNT composites. The non-isothermal crystallization temperature and thermal decomposition temperature appeared at higher temperatures with increasing MWCNT contents. Morphology showed that length of MWCNT in diluted PP/MWCNT composites was shortened by twice melt blending, which contributed to improve the tensile strength of PP/MWCNT composites.

In general, the development of thermoplastic composites has been confronted with difficult problems such as the weak bonding strength between fibers and matrix. However, now, such problems are being surmounted by the development of resins, the improvement of processes, and introduction of interphase. Especially, the introduction of interphase between fiber and matrix can help a dissipation of the impact energy and provide a good adhesion between fibers and matrix. In this study, polymeric interphase was introduced by electrodeposition, modified polypropylene was added to improve the weak bonding strength between interphase and polypropylene matrix. By evaluation of interlaminar shear strength and impact strength of the composites, it was found that composites with introduced composites showed higher mechanical properties than those of composites without interphase. Reactive polymers which have either anhydride or free acid functional group were used as interphase materials, and these polymers also behave as charge carrier in aqueous solution during the electrodeposition process. Weight gain on the carbon fibers was evaluated by changing process parameters such as concentration of solution, current density, and electrodeposition time.

In this study, some experimental results of the peroxide-degradation process of polypropylene(PP) in a co-rotating twin-screw extruder to produce controlled rheology polypropylene(CRPP) are presented. The peroxide was dicumyl peroxide(DCP) and the concentration of DCP was in the range 0-0.3 wt%. It was found that the rheological properties of PP change significantly during reactive extrusion. Melt flow index(MFI) increased with DCP concentration. Intrinsic viscosity decreases with increasing DCP concentration. From dynamic rheological data, number average molecular weight(Mn), weight average molecular weight(Mn) and molecular weight distribution(MWD) were calculated. Results indicated that Mw decreases and MWD becomes narrower with increasing peroxide concentration. Especially, particle size distribution of CRPP decreases with increasing DCP concentration by chemical powdering process, and anti-slip floor paint, CRPP(DCP 0.2 wt%) powder by 10phr was friction coefficient 2.15 ${\mu}$, abrasion resistance 511.18%.

Amine-type PP-g-VBC-EDA adsorbent, which possesses anionic exchangeable function, was prepared through photoinduced graft polymerization of vinylbenzyl chloride (VBC) onto polypropylene non-woven fabric and subsequent amination reaction using ethylenediamine (EDA). Adsorption characteristics of anionic nutrients on the PP-g-VBC-EDA adsorbent have been studied by batch adsorption experiments. The equilibrium data well fitted the Langmuir isotherm model, and the maximum monolayer sorption capacity was found to be 59.9 mg/g for $NO_3-N$ and 111.4 mg/g for $PO_4-P$. The adsorption energies were higher than 8 kJ/mol indicating anion-exchange process as the primary adsorption mechanism. The pseudo-second order kinetic model described well the kinetic data and resulted in the activation energy of 9.8-36.7 kJ/mol suggesting that the overall rates of $NO_3-N$ and $PO_4-P$ adsorption are controlled by the chemical process. Thermodynamic parameters such as ${\Delta}G^o$, ${\Delta}H^o$ and ${\Delta}S^o$ indicated that the adsorption nature of PP-g-VBC-EDA for anionic nutrients is spontaneous and exothermic. The PP-g-VBC-EDA could be regenerated by washing with 0.1 N HCl.
