Isotactic polypropylene (PP) surfaces were modified with argon and oxygen plasmas using a radio­frequency (RF) glow discharge at 240 mTorr and 40 W. The changes in topography and surface structure were investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) in conjunction with specular reflectance of infrared (IR) microspectroscopy. Under our operating conditions, the AFM image analysis revealed that longer plasma treatment resulted in significant ablation on the PP surface, regardless of the kind of plasma employed, but the topography was dependent on the nature of the gases. Specular reflectance IR spectroscopic analysis indicated that the constant removal of surface material was an important ablative aspect when using either plasma, but the nature of the ablative behavior and the resultant aging effects were clearly dependent on the choice of plasma. The use of argon plasma resulted in a negligible aging effect; in contrast, the use of oxygen plasma caused a noticeable aging effect, which was due to reactions of trapped or isolated radicals with oxygen in air, and was partly responsible for the increased surface area caused by ablation. The use of oxygen plasma is believed to be an advantageous approach to modifying polymeric materials with functionalized surfaces, e.g., for surface grafting of unsaturated monomers and incorporating oxygen-containing groups onto PP.

Many of researches regarding mechanical properties of composite materials are associated with humid environment and temperature. Especially the temperature is a very important factor influencing the design of thermoplastic composites. However, the effect of temperature on impact behavior of reinforced composites have not yet been fully explored. An approach which predicts critical fracture toughness GIC was performed by the impact test in this work The main goal of this work is to study effects of temperature in the impact test with glass fiber/polypropylene(GF/pp) composites. The critical fracture energy and failure mechanisms of GF/PP composites are investigated in the temperature range of $60^{\circ}C\;to\;-50^{\circ}C$ by impact test. The critical fracture energy shows a maximum at ambient temperature and it tends to decrease as temperature goes up or goes down. Major failure mechanisms can be classified such as fiber matrix debonding, fiber pull-out and/or delamination and matrix deformation.

자동차의 경량화를 위해서 AA5182/Polypropylene/AA5182 형태의 알루미늄 합금과 폴리프로필렌으로 구성된 샌드위치 판재가 개발되었다. 샌드위치 판재의 성형성을 평가하기 위해서 0.2mm 두께의 AA5182 판재와 1.2mm 두께의 샌드위치 판재의 성형한계도를 수정된 Marciniak-Kuczynski(M-K) 이론에 의해서 구하였다. 판재의 이방성을 표현하기 위해서 Hill의 1948년 항복곡선 표현 식을 사용하였다. 그 결과 샌드위치 판재의 성형한계도가 AA5182판재보다 더 우수하게 평가되었으며 이것은 실험값과 잘 일치하였다.

Polypropylene (PP) composites with wood flour/wax/coupling agent were manufactured by melt compounding and injection molding. The influence of wood flour(WF), wax, and coupling agent on the mechanical and thermal properties of the composites was investigated. The addition of wood flour to neat PP has the higher tensile modulus and strength compared with neat PP. The presence of wax also improved the tensile modulus. At the same loading of PP and WF, the addition of coupling agent highly decreased the tensile modulus, and increased the tensile strength. From thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), the addition of wax improved the thermal stability of the composites in the later stages of degradation. The presence of MAPP and wood flour in turn decreased thermal stabilities of composites. From differential scanning calorimetry analysis (DSC), neither the loading of wax. nor the presence of MAPP has shown significant effect on the thermal transition of composites.

Dyeing and fastness properties of a dyeable PP fiber were examined with four different types of disperse dyes. It was found that the dyed PP fiber could be cleared by soaping without using sodium hydrosulphite, and that the heat setting above $140^{\circ}C$ resulted in the melting of the PP fiber. The rates of dyeing and the extents of exhaustion of three primary E type dyes were different with each other, the apparent color strength did not increase with increasing dye concentration, and color fastness to washing was not satisfactory. In the cases of both high wash fastness and high light fastness dyes, the rates of dyeing were slow and the extents of exhaustion were very low. On the other hand, the dyeing rates of three primary S type dyes were similar and the build-up properties were good with good color fastnesses. It might be concluded that the best disperse dyes for the dyeable PP fiber were S type dyes.

상업용 PDMS(polydimethylsiloxiane) 복합막과 플라즈마 처리된 PP(polypropylene)막을 사용하여 투과증발에 의한 알코올 농축을 수행하였고, 공정 조업 변수에 따른 영향을 조사하였다. PDMS막에 대한 부탄올의 친화력과 물의 친화력보다 크기 때문에 공급액의 부탄올 농도가 증가함에 따라 투과량의 선택도가 모두 증가하였다. 조업 온도가 증가함에 따라 고분자 사슬내의 자유 부피)free volume)가 증가하고 막에 대한 알코올과 물의 용해도 및 확산계수도 증가하여 투과량은 증가하였지만, 선택도는 감소하였다. PDMS 막과 용해도 계수(solubility parameter)값의 차가 적은 알코올일수록 높은 투과량과 선택도를 나타내었다. PP막을 메탄올로 플라즈마 처리한 경우 PDMS 복합막과 유사한 분리효율을 나타내면서도 투과량은 6배나 증가하였다. 플라즈마 처리 시간에 따라 투과량과 선택도는 모두 향상되었으나 일정 시간 이후에는 기공의 막힘 현상으로 투과량은 감소하였다.

Melt blends of maleic anhydride grafted polypropylerle(PP-g-MA) and Nylon 6 were prepared to study the influence of chemical reaction between the two polymer components. By adding the MA grafted polystyrene pold (ethylene/butadiene) and polystyrene[SEBS-g-MA] as the compatible modifiers to reinforce the impact resistance, the Izod impact strength, high rate impact strength and morphology were studied. The notched Izod impact strength increased with the content of PP-g-MA and SEBS- g-MA. The energy of high rate impact strength increased as the thickness of specimen increased, while, it increased as the specimen displacement decreased. In the morphology observed by SEM, finally, we confirmed the improvement of the compatibilization and interfacial adhesion with the content of SEBS-g-MA. The continuous phase of PP-g-MA was the main cause of the modified properties.

This study investigated fundamental characters of the concrete according to various fiber types and contents and their properties of spatting resistance and residual compressive strength after fire test corresponding to ISO and RABT heating corves. The results were summarized as following. The Flowability was gradually declined as the increase of fiber contents, and it was the most favorable with nylon(NY) fibers. The decrease of air contents due to increasing fiber contents was in order by polypropylene(PP), polyvinyl alcohol(PVA) and NY fibers. The compressive strengths were over 40 MPa at 7 days and 50 MPa at 28 days. It was in order by PVA, PP and NY fibers. For the spatting properties, all specimens were prevented at ISO heating curve. In the other hand, the partial spatting at the surface occurred on the plain without fibers, but it was prevented over 0.10 % of PVA and 0.05 % of PP and NY fibers at the RABT heating curve.

Recently. there has been steadily applied in high-performance concrete using powder type admixture in construction field. It has been reported that high-performance concrete is likely to cause the spalling by fire more seriously due to the dense microstructure. In this paper, spalling properties of high-performance concrete with the kinds of admixture and polypropylene(PP) fiber contents are presented. According to the experimental results concrete contained no PP fiber take place in the form of the surface spalling, regardless of admixture. Concrete contained more than 0.05% of PP fiber and admixture do not take place the spalling, however the concrete using silica fume do spalling. Concrete using blast furnace slag have good performance in spalling resistance. It is found that residual compressive strength has 60~70% of its original strength when spalling do not occur. Although specimens after exposed at high temperature are cured at water for 28days, they do not recover their original strength.
