The present paper reports the life time prediction of Acrylonitrile-Butadiene rubber (NBR) fuel cell gasket materials as a function of operational variables like acid concentration, ageing time and temperature. Both material and accelerated acid-heat aging tests were carried out to predict the useful life of the NBR rubber gasket for use as a fuel cell stack. The acid ageing of the gasket compounds has been investigated at 120, 140 and $160^{\circ}C$, with aging times from 3 to 600 h and increasing acid ($H_2SO_4$) concentrations of 5, 6, 7 and 10 vol%. Material characteristics the gas compound such as cross-link density, tensile strength and elongation at break were studied. The hardness of the NBR rubber was found to decrease with decreasing acid concentration at both 120 and $140^{\circ}C$, but at $160^{\circ}C$ interestingly the hardness of the NBR rubber increased abruptly in a very short time at different acid concentrations. The tensile strength and elongation at break were found to decrease with increase in both the acid concentrate ion & temperature. The life time of the compounds were evaluated using the Arrhenius equation.

NBR과 강판의 접착특성을 향상시키기 위해 대기압 화염 플라즈마(APFP) 처리 장치가 사용되었다. 가장 우수한 접착특성을 나타내는 최적 조건을 찾기 위해 다양한 처리 조건(처리속도, 거리)에 따른 효과에 대한 실험적 연구를 하였다. 주어진 조건에서 버너 포트와 강판의 최적 거리는 40mm, 버너 포트의 최적 처리속도는 50m/min였다. APFP 처리 후 접착제를 두 번 도포한 강판의 접착강도는 접착제만 도포한 경우보다 20.5% 증가하였다. 본 연구를 통해서 대기압 화염 플라즈마 처리에 의한 강판의 표면개질이 고무와 강의 접착강도를 증가시키는 적절하면서도 응용이 가능한 방법임을 확인하였다.

The thermoforming process is widely used in the plastics industry to produce articles for the packaging, automotive, domestic construction and leisure industries. The microcellular foaming process appeared at M.I.T. in 1980s to save a quantity of polymer materials and increase their mechanical properties. The glass transition temperature of polymer materials is one of many important process variables in appling the microcellular foaming process to the conventional thermoforming process. The goal of this research is to evaluate the relation between gas absorption and glass transition temperature in batch process using microcellular foaming process. The weight gain ratio of polymer materials has a conception of gas absorption. Polymers such as acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene(ABS), polystyrene(PS) have been used in this experiment. According to conventional Chows model and Cha-Yoon model, it was estimated with real experimental result to predict a change of glass transition temperature as a function of the weight gain ratio of polymer materials in batch process to gain microcellular foamed plastic products.

An azoinitiator linked to an epoxy oligomer, which could easily diffuse into the organoclay gallery and swell it, was used as an initiator to enhance the delamination of an organoclay, Cloisite 25A, in a matrix of styrenic polymers, poly(styrene-co-acrylonitrile) and polystyrene, during the preparation of a nanocomposite via an in-situ polymerization method. X-ray diffraction results and transmission electron microscopic observation of the morphology showed that the epoxy segment enhanced not only the delamination but also the extrication of ammonium cations from the organoclay gallery into the polymer matrix. The latter phenomenon induced the structural change of the alkyl group of ammonium cations in the gallery from a bilayer to monolayer structure, and also decreased the glass-rubber transition temperature as measured by a differential scanning calorimeter and dynamic mechanical analyzer.

최근 플라스틱 성형품은 기능적인 측면뿐만 아니라 디자인 및 광택과 같이 시각적으로 즉각 식별이 가능한 부분에 까지 많은 관심과 주의를 기울이고 있다. 이와 관련하여 성형품 광택의 제어를 위하여 성형조건이 광택에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구가 필요하지만 관련 연구는 아직 충분히 이루어지지 않고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 플라스틱 성형품의 외관에 주로 사용되는 ABS (Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene) 플라스틱 성형품에 대하여 사출압력, 사출속도, 보압력, 수지온도, 금형온도 등의 사출조건의 변화가 성형품의 외관 광택에 미치는 영향에 대하여 사출실험을 통하여 연구하였다. 연구 결과에서 보압력이 가장 큰 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 특히, 보압력 55 - 75MPa 범위에서는 광택도가 증가하지만 그 이상 증가하면 광택이 감소하는데, 그 원인은 SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope)을 통하여 수지 내부의 고무 입자의 변형에 기인한다고 유추할 수 있었다.

Acrylic pressure sensitive adhesives of n-butyl acrylate, 2-ethyl acrylate, methyl acrylate, vinyl acetate, acrylic acid, acrylonitrile and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate were synthesized and basic physical properties of pressure sensitive adhesives with increasing the contents of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate were investigated. 2-Hydroxyethyl acrylates effects on glass transition temperature, viscosity, hardening time and peel strength. Glass transition temperature(Tg) decreased with increasing the contents of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Viscosity and hardening time were increased with increasing the contents of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. On the other hands, peel strength increased with increasing the contents of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate up to 6 wt% and the decreased at further higher contents of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. In peel test, interfacial failure was occured in 8 wt% and 10wt%.

This study was conducted to prepare acrylic removable protective coatings by emulsion polymerization. Monomers used were n-butyl acrylate, acrylonitrile, butyl methacrylate. Emulsifiers used were sodium lauryl sulfate and polyoxyethylene lauryl ether, which are an anionic emulsifier and a nonionic emulsifier respectively. Potassium persulfate was used as an initiator and polyvinyl alcohol was used as a stabilizer. Emulsion polymerization was carried out in a semi-batch reactor at $70^{\circ}C$ and agitation speed was 200 rpm. Tensile strength, extension, peel strength, viscosity, and solid contents of the synthesized coatings were examined. The coatings prepared with BA:AN = 60:20 (in weight ratio) satisfied the standard for automobile in terms of extension and peel strength. When the concentration of BMA was in a range of $18{\sim}23$ wt%, the prepared coatings satisfied the standard for automobile in terms of peel strength and water resistance.

Although it is suggested that risk -based management plan is needed to manage air pollution effectively, we have no resources enough to evaluate all aspects of substances and set priorities. So we need to develop a logical and easy risk-based priority setting method. However, it if impossible that only one generic system that is consistent with all the use is developed. In this study, we proposed a human health risk based priority-setting method for hazardous air pollutants, and ranked priorities for this method. First of all, after investigating previous chemical ranking and scoring systems, we chose appropriate indicators and logics to goal of this study and made a chemical priority ranking method using these. As results, final scores in priority ranking method were derived for 25 substances, and ethylene oxide, acrylonitrile and vinyl chloride were included in high ranks. In addition, same substances were highly ranked when using default values like when using no default, but the scores of hydrofluoric acid and ryan and compounds were sensitive to default values. This study could be important that priorities were set including toxicity type and quality and local inherent exposure conditions and we can set area-specific management guidelines and survey plans as a screening tool.

The properties of carbon fibers made from PAN are controlled by the heat treatment conditions. The length changes of high strength homo-PAN and co-PAN (acrylonitrile/acrylamide= 98/2wt% ) fibers under constant tensile stress during heat treatment in nitrogen gas were investigated by measuring the shrinkage behavior. In order to elucidate the relation between the length and fine structure change, the measurements of the crystalline orientation and birefringence index etc. were made for the fibers treated under linear heating up to 27$0^{\circ}C$. There are two regions in the length change with heat treatment temperature. The change in the initial period is mainaly due to the relaxation of amorphous molecular chain confined by the fiber-manufacture process. The length change in later period is considered to arise as cyclization reactions. The co-PAN fibers caused a larger shrinkage, while the onset of the shrinkage change in later period is, shifted to lower temperature. Significant morphological changes are shown to precede onset of the cyclization reactions and also during these reactions.

In order to study the dyeability of wool S-cyano ethylated wool-keratine(SCEK) as a model compound of wool was prepared from the reaction of reduced merino wool fiber and acrylonitrile. The binding of acid dyes(methyl orange and it's homologs) by SCEK over the temperature 60~9$0^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The first binding constants and the thermodynamic parameters in the course of the binding were evaluated. It was found that at the 60~9$0^{\circ}C$ range complex formation between the dye and SCEK is associated with an exothermic enthalpy change and a positive entropy change. The enthalpy and entropy changes of the binding are of the order of -4.5 kcal/mole and 8.5 eu, respectively, for each dye measured. Thus the binding is mainly enthalpy-controlled. Furthermore the effect of the alkyl chain length of the dye on both the ΔH$^{\circ}$and ΔS$^{\circ}$value is not prounced. Also temperature dependences of the ΔH$^{\circ}$and ΔS$^{\circ}$values were not obserbed.
