The tensile strength (TS) and elongation-at-break (EB) loss of a CR/CB rubber composite sample prepared for the automotive parts were measured after accelerated thermal ageing at temperatures of 100, 120, 140, and $150^{\circ}C$. The change in TS was observed to be linear from the master curve prepared using the time-temperature superposition-principle (TTSP). An Arrhenius type of shift factor, $a_T$ was used to predict the life time of the sample, and a plot of ln $a_T$ vs. 1/T was also shown to be linear. The activation energy ($E_a$) of the sample was calculated as 70.30 kJ/mole from the Arrhenius plot. The expected life time of the sample was predicted at the given operating conditions by applying Arrhenius analysis. Assuming the $E_a$ value was constant at lower operating condition, life time of the sample was calculated as 2.3 years when the life limit was set as time to reach the 20% decrease of the initial TS value at operating temperature of $40^{\circ}C$.

Molecular motion at the surface of monodisperse polystyrene (PS) films with various chain end groups was studied by scanning probe microscopy. Surface glass transition temperature ($T_{g^s}$) of the PS films was much lower than the corresponding bulk value. And, the magnitude of $T_{g^s}$ was strongly dependent on chain end chemistry. This result can be explained in terms of the chain end concentration at the surface. Time-temperature superposition principle was applied to rheological analysis at the surface. The apparent activation energy of the surface ${\alpha}_{a}$-relaxation process was approximately a half of that for the bulk sample. This result clearly indicates that the cooperativity for the surface segmental motion was reduced in comparison with that in the bulk region.

This paper presents an approximate analytical solution to a two-region one-dimensional model for the charging process of stratified thermal storage tanks with variable inlet temperature in the presence of momentum-induced mixing. Based on the superposition principle, an arbitrary-varying inlet temperature is decomposed into inherent discontinuous steps and continuous intervals approximated as a finite number of piecewise linear functions. This approximation allows the temperature of the upper perfectly-mixed layer to be expressed in terms of constant, linear and exponential functions with respect to time. Applying the Laplace transform technique to the model equation for the lower thermocline layer subject to each of three representative interfacial conditions yields compact-form solutions, a linear combination of which constitutes the final temperature profile. A systematic method for deriving solutions to the plug-flow problem having polynomial-type boundary conditions is also established. The effect of adiabatic exit boundary on solution behaviors proves to be negligible under the actual working conditions, which justifies the assumption of semi-infinite domain introduced in the solution procedure. Finally, the approximate solution is validated by comparing it with an exact solution obtained for a specific variation of inlet temperature. Excellent agreements between them suffice to show the necessity and utility of this work.

PURPOSES : The dynamic modulus can be determined by applying the various theories from the Impact Resonance Testing(IRT) Method. The objective of this paper is to determine the best theory to produce the dynamic modulus that has the lowest error as the dynamic modulus data obtained from these theories(Complex Wave equation Resonance Method related to either the transmissibility loss or not, Dynamic Stiffness Resonance Method) compared to the results for dynamic modulus determined by using the Universal Testing Machine. The ultimate object is to develop the predictive model for the dynamic modulus of a Linear Visco-Elastic specimen by using the Complex Wave equation Resonance Method(CWRM) came up for an existing study(S. O. Oyadiji; 1985) and the Optimization. METHODS : At the destructive test which uses the Universal Testing Machine, the dynamic modulus results along with the frequency can be used for determining the sigmoidal master curve function related to the reduced frequency by applying Time-Temperature Superposition Principle. RESULTS : The constant to be solved from Eq. (11) is a value of 14.13. The reduced dynamic modulus obtained from the IRT considering the loss factor related to the impact transmissibility has RMSE of 367.7MPa, MPE of 3.7%. When the predictive dynamic modulus model was applied to determine the master curve, the predictive model has RMSE of 583.5MPa, MPE of 3.5% compared to the destructive test results for the dynamic modulus. CONCLUSIONS : Because we considered that the results obtained from the destructive test had the most highest source credibility in this study, the dynamic modulus data obtained respectively from DSRM, CWRM were compared to the results obtained from the destructive test by using th IRT. At the result, the reduced dynamic modulus derived from DSRM has the most lowest error.

CR고무로 개질된 NR/CB 고무복합재료에 대하여 등온 TGA 및 TMA를 이용하여 열노화실험을 통하여 시험방법에 따른 재료의 화학적, 물리적 노화에 의한 재료의 수명예측에 대한 비교 연구를 진행하였다. 각각의 실험으로부터 얻은 데이터는 시간-온도 중첩 원리를 이용하여 이동인자 $a_T$를 구함으로서 $90^{\circ}C$의 기준온도에서의 마스터 곡선을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 TGA 및 TMA실험에서의 노화활성화에너지는 실험적으로 결정된 이동인자의 Arrhenius plot에 의하여 결정될 수 있었으며 각각 $E_{a,TGA}$ = 41.2 및 $E_{a,TMA}$= 54.5 kJ/mol로서 TMA 실험에 의한 값이 약간 더 높게 계산되었다. 실험의 결과로부터 샘플의 중량감소를 가져오는 화학적인 노화는 치수변화 등의 물리적인 노화 현상과 밀접한 연관성을 가지는 것으로 생각되었다.

자동차 엔진 개스킷용 아크릴 고무(ACM)의 재료 특성과 수명 예측에 관하여 연구하였다. 클로린 가교사이트를 포함하는 ACM (Chlorine Cure-Site ACM)과 카르복실기 가교사이트를 포함하는 ACM (Carboxyl Cure-Site ACM)을 이용하여 최적상태의 배합물을 제작하여 특성을 살펴보았다. 엔진용 개스킷의 주요한 특성인 열과, 엔진오일에서의 압축영구줄음율을 시험 평가한 결과 Carboxyl Cure-Site ACM 배합물이 상대적으로 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다. Carboxyl Cure-Site ACM 고무 재료에 대한 수명을 예측하기 위해 가속열노화시험을 수행하여 시간-온도 환산식인 아레니우스(Arrhenius) 관계식을 구하였다.

TGA 열분석법을 이용하여 LCD 백라이트 램프 홀더용으로 사용되는 실리콘 고무성형품샘플에 대하여 서로 다른 몇 가지 온도에서의 등온 후가교 특성을 연구하였다. 특히 실제 사용 환경에서의 내열조건과 관련된 후가교 특성 및 적정 후가교 조건에 대하여 촛점을 맞추어 연구하였고 시간-온도중첩원리를 응용하는 촉진 실험법의 적용 가능성을 알아보았다. LCD 램프홀더용의 실리콘 재료의 실제 사용 환경을 고려할 때, 휘발성 물질의 배출에 의한 중량감소가 처음 시작되는 온도인 Ti가 가장 중요한 고려 요인이며, 이를 고려하여 도출되는 후가교 조건은 $250^{\circ}C$, 2시간이 적절한 것으로 생각되었다. 시간-온도 중첩원리와 실험적으로 결정된 이동인자는 Arrhenius식을 잘 만족함을 보여 주었으며 이로부터 후가교과정은 활성화에너지 108.25kJ/mol의 값을 가지는 단일 메커니즘으로 진행됨을 알 수 있었다.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the SDAR (solvent deasphaltene residue), which is obtained from the solvent deasphalting (SDA) process, as a pavement material. METHODS : The physical properties of the SDAR were evaluated based on its chemical composition, and asphalt mixtures with the SDAR were fabricated and used for the evaluation of mechanical properties. Firstly, the chemical composition of SARA (saturate, aromatic, resin and asphaltene) was analyzed using the TLC-FID (thin-layer chromatography-flame ionization detector). Moreover, the basic material properties of the asphalt binder with the SDAR were evaluated by the penetration test, softening point test, ductility test, and PG (performance grade) grade test. The rheological properties of the asphalt binder with the SDAR were evaluated by the dynamic shear modulus ($G^*$) obtained using the time-temperature superposition (TTS) principle. Secondly, the mechanical properties of the asphalt mixtures with the SDAR were evaluated. The compactibility was evaluated using the gyratory compacter. Moreover, the tensile strength ratio (TSR) was used for evaluating the moisture susceptibility of the asphalt mixtures (i.e., susceptibility to pothole damage). The dynamic modulus $E^*$, which is a fundamental property of the asphalt mixture, obtained at different temperatures and loading cycles, was used to evaluate the mechanical properties of the asphalt mixtures. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION : The SDAR shows stiffer and more brittle behavior than the conventional asphalt binder. As the application of the SDAR directly in the field may cause early failures, such as cracks on pavements, it should be applied with modifiers that can favorably modify the brittleness property of the SDAR. Therefore, if appropriate additives are applied on the SDAR, it can be used as a pavement material because of its low cost and strong resistance to rutting.
