Liquid PVC, which is used widely as fiber coating, has brilliant non-luster effect, but it decreases flexibility of coated fiber surface. We used liquid silicone rubber in elastomer series as a coating material to alleviate this problem. We have conducted the former liquid PVC processing and used pressure of roller and preliminary hardening of processing. In this experiment, We measured 70 degree of hardness, 10.3 MPa of tensile strength and 200fs of tensile elongation of Liquid PVC-coated plastic fiber. We measured 40 degree of hardness, 5.1 MPa of tensile strength and 460% of tensile elongation of Liquid silicone PVC-coated plastic fiber. Therefore, Without the second process, Liquid silicone rubber coating increased non-luster effect and flexibility of plastic fiber surface more than Liquid PVC coating.

심폐바이패스시 발생할 수 있는 튜브 마모 및 파쇄는 롤러펌프의 반복되는 압박에 의해 롤러펌프에 장착된 튜브 내벽에 균열이 생기고 이로 인해 미세한 비생물적 조각들이 혈액중으로 떨어져 나가는 현상을 말하는데, 임상적으로 치명적인 색전증을 초래할 수 있다. 그러나 아직 롤러펌프 튜브로 사용되는 PVC 및 실리콘 튜브 중 어느 쪽이 마모 및 파쇄 관점에서 더 우수한지는 체계적으로 밝혀지지 않고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 두 종류의 튜브를각각 일정 기간 롤러펌프에 장착하여 작동시킨 뒤 튜브내외면을 육안 및 주사형 전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 즉 PVC 및 실리콘 튜브 (내경 1/2 인치의)들을 미리 정해진 폐쇄도 조절에 의해 폐쇄 회로 심폐비이패스 롤러펌프 헤드에 장착시키고 4.500ml/min에서 각각 4차례씩 1,2,4,6 시간 작동시켰다. 파쇄에 의한 색전 관찰 실험에서는 회로 중간에 동맥여과기를 설치하고 각각 6,9시간 씩 롤러펌프를 작동시켰다. 실험 후 튜브 및 여과기들을 수거한 후 육안 및 주사형 전자현미경 분석을 시행하였다. 실험후 튜브 및 여과기들을 수거한 후 육안 및 주사형 전자현미경을 분석을 시행하였다. 튜브 외부의 육안 관찰 결과 일반적으로 실라스틱 튜브에서의 외부 마모가 PVC 튜브에 비해 현저하였다. 주사형 전자현미경 관찰에서 PVC 튜브에서의 홈은 좁으면서 경계선이 뚜렷한 특징을 보였고 3시간 이상 롤러와 접촉한 튜브들에게서는 깊은 균열이 간헐적으로 관찰되었다. 반면, 실라스틱에서의 홈은 좁으면서도 경계선이 뚜렷한 특징을 보였고 3시간 이상 롤러와 접촉한 튜브들에게서는 깊은 균열이 간헐적으로 관찰되었다.반면 실라스틱에서의 튜브들에서는 홈이 상대적으로 넓고 경계가 덜 명확했으며, 특징적으로 V 자 모양의 융기부들이 간헐적으로 관찰되었다. 실라스틱 및 PVC 튜브 모두에서 50u 전후의 Craters 가 간헐적으로 관찰되었다. 여과기의 여과망에 대한 주사형 전자현미경 분석 결과 실라스틱과 PVC 튜브 실험군 모두에서 색전입자로 의심되는조각들이 발견되었으나 두군간 정량적 비교는 어려웠다. 결론적으로 롤러펌프에 의한 튜브 마모 및 파쇄현상은 실리콘 및 PVC 튜브의 재질에 따라 그 양상에는 차이가 있으나 임상적인 측면에서는 어느 쪽도 상대적인 우수성이 입증되지 못하였다.

By applying a critical field treatment instead of the conventional surface treatments such as soft rubber roller, ion beam irradiation, adhesive taping, and laser irradiation, electron emission properties of screen-printed carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were enhanced and investigated based on the emission current-voltage characteristics through scanning electron microscopy. After nanotube emitters were activated at the applied electric-field of 2.5 V/um, the electron emission current density with good uniform emission sites reached the value of 2.13 mA/$cm^2$ , which is 400 times higher than that of the untreated sample, and the turn-on voltage decreased markedly from 700 to 460 V. In addition, enhancement of the alignment of CNTs to the vertical direction was observed.

It is important to pay careful attention to the backfill construction for the structural integrity of concrete box culvert. To increase the structural integrity of culvert good compaction by the dynamic compaction roller with big capacity is as effective as good backfill materials. However structural distress of the culvert could be occurred due to the excessive earth pressure by great dynamic compaction load. In this study, two box culverts were constructed with change compaction materials and construction methods. Two type of on-site soils such as subbase and subgrade materials were used as backfill materials. In most case, dynamic compaction rollers with 11 to 12 ton weights were used and vibration frequency were applied from 2000 to 2500 rpm for the great compaction energy. Backfill compactions with good quality soils were carried out to examine the effect of cushions on dynamic lateral soil pressure. Expanded polystyrene (EPS) and rubber of tire were adapted as cushion materials and they are set on the culverts before backfill construction. This paper presents the main results on the characteristics of dynamic earth pressures. Test result indicates that the amounts of increased dynamic pressures are affected with backfill materials, depth of pressure cell, and compaction condition. The earth pressure during compaction can give harmful effect to box culvert because the value of dynamic earth pressure coefficient $(\DeltaK_{dyn}=\DeltaK\sigma_h\DeltaK\sigma_v)$ during compaction is greater than that of static condition. It was observed that cushion panels of EPS(t=10cm) and rubber(t=5cm) are effective to mitigate dynamic lateral pressure on the culverts.

Miscibility improvement between polypropylene(PP) and ethylene-propylene-diene-terpolymer (EPDM) was studied by introducing specific interaction into both polymers. PP was modified by grafting maleic anhydride(MAH) onto backbone, leading to MAH-grafted PP(PP-g-MAH). Sulfonated EPDM ionomer neutralized with bivalent zinc cation(ZnSEPDM) was used as one component. The blends of PP-g-MAH and ZnSEPDM were prepared at $200^{\circ}C$ in Brabender Roller Mixer. Fourier transform-infrared(FT-IR) spectroscopic and dynamic mechanical studies have been performed to investigate the miscibility. FT-IR spectral peak corresponding to carbonyl group in PP-g-MAH and that to sulfonate group in ZnSEPDM were shifted to lower and higher frequency with increasing ZnSEPDM content, respectively, in the blends. Glass transition temperature of ZnSEPDM was increased up to 70wt.% of ZnSEPDM, and again decreased above 70wt.%. It can be concluded from the shift of FT-IR characteristic peaks and the changes of glass transition temperatures that the miscibility between PP and EPDM was improved via introducing specific interaction, i.e., dipole-ion interaction.

Paddy and milled rice quality, milling characteristics, energy consumption of milling process were investigated using Dasanbyeo, Ansanbyeo, Hwaseongbyeo, Ilpumbyeo, and Donganbyeo varieties. Thousand grains weights of the varieties dried to 15% moisture content were 22.92-28.60 g, with Dasanbyeo being the heaviest. Optimum clearance of rubber roller for obtaining maximum dehulling recovery was 30% of each rice variety thickness. At that time, perfect brown rice ratios of Dasanbyeo, Ansanbyeo, Hwaseongbyeo, Ilpumbyeo, and Donganbyeo were 95.24%, 98.86%, 95.97%, 97.75%, and 97.31%, respectively, and showed no significant differences among varieties. Ratios of removed rice bran after two times milling ranged 70.93-91.38%, with Dasanbyeo showing the highest ratio, and the average head rice ratio was 92.87%.
