Celite with enormous pore space inside can hold small molecules and can be well blended with polyethylene (PE) to make a Celite-PE film. Two types of Celite-PE film were prepared, one with Celite surface-treated with surfactant to reduce the hydrophilicity and another with plain Celite. The anti-rust chemical such as dicyclohexylamine, dicyclohexylamine nitrite, or diisopropylamine was allowed to permeate into celite pore in the film, and slowly evaporated to protect the packaged steel material from the rust for a long period of time. The chemical concentration in the different packaging film bags was analyzed by a gas chromatography for a month, and the anti-rust effect on iron labware was compared for a six month period. The Celite film was superior to PE film in anti-rust effect and the long-term anti-rust chemical evaporation.

An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the viscosity characteristics of multi-grade engine oils in which contain diesel fuels. Unused engine oils of SAE 5W40, 10W40 and 15W40 were blended with a diesel fuel ratio of 5%, 10%, and 15%. The viscosity of a diluted engine oil was measured with temperature variation ranging from $-20^{\circ}C$ to $120^{\circ}C$ using a rotary viscometer. The diluted engine oil in which is blended to a diesel fuel plays an important role for decreasing an engine oil viscosity, which may decrease the oil film thickness and a load-carrying capacity. Test results show that the viscosity tends to fall for the increased temperature when engine oil is mixed with a diesel fuel. Especially, the viscosity at a low temperature zone is radically decreased compared with a high temperature zone. Based on the experimental results, the empirical equation that can predict the viscosity of diluted engine oil is expressed in the exponential function with the variation of the temperature and a fuel ratio of diluted engine oil. This equation may be possible to predict the limitation of the oil-fuel dilution rate at the concept design stage of the CDPF system, which doesn't affect the influence of the tribological components.

The mechanical properties and morphologies of lyocell and its blend we compared. Poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was used as a filler in blends with lyocell produced through solution blending. The variations of their properties with polymer matrix filler content are discussed. The ultimate tensile strength of the PVA/lyocell blend is highest for a blend lyocell content of 30 wt%, and decreases as the lyocell content is increased up to 40 wt%. The variations in the initial moduli of the blends with filler content are similar. Lyocell and its blended hybrid films were prepared by the solution intercalation method, using dodecyltriphenylphosphonium-mica ($C_{12}PPh$-Mica) as the organoclay. The variations of the mechanical tensile properties of the hybrids with the organoclay content were examined. These properties were found to be optimal for an organoclay content of up to 5 wt%. However, the mechanical tensile properties of the PVA/Lyocell (w/w=30/70) blended hybrid films were found to decrease linearly with increases in organoclay content from 1 to 5 wt%.

Two types of organic thin film solar cell devices with bulk hetero-junction (BHJ) structure were fabricated on plastic substrates using conjugated polymers of $PCDTBT:PC_{71}BM$ and $PTB7:PC_{71}BM$ blended as active channel layer. Time-variant characteristics of the organic thin film solar cell devices were investigated: short circuit current density ($J_{SC}$); open circuit voltage ($V_{OC}$); ; fill factor (FF); power conversion efficiency (PCE, ŋ). All the performance parameters were degraded by progress of the measurement time, while $V_{OC}$ showed the most drastic decrease with time. Possible factors to cause the time-variant alteration of performance parameters were discussed to be clarified.

Flexible organic thin film solar cell device with Bulk Hetero-Junction (BHJ) structure was fabricated with blended conjugated polymer of PCDTBT : $PC_{71}BM$ as active layer. Surface of ITO anode for the organic solar cell device was treated with ozone. The organic solar cell device with bare ITO showed short circuit current density ($J_{sc}$) of $8.2mA/cm^2$, open-circuit voltage ($V_{oc}$) of 0.73V, fill factor (FF) of 0.36, and power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.16%, respectively. The organic solar cell device with ozone treated ITO anode revealed distinctively improved performance parameters:$J_{sc}$ of $9.8mA/cm^2$, $V_{oc}$ of 0.82V, FF of 0.43, PCE(${\eta}$) of 3.42%.

The conductive polymers, polyaniline (PANI) emeralidin base and 3,4-polyethylene dioxythiophene(PEDOT) were synthesized and coated on the PET film dealt with acryl type primer to study the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness. When both PANI and PEDOT were coated on the PET film dealt with acryl type priemer, their surface properties such as he adhesive increased. For PANI, when blended with the binder such as PMMA, it adhesive and surface hardness increased, too. The visible light transmittance decreased, while the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness increased, when coated thickness of PANI and PEDOT increased. For PANI, the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness increased as its surface resistance decreased. For PANI, when the surface resistance was 140 Ω/$\square$, the shielding effectiveness was found to be 11 dB in the far field, and 13 dB in the near field at 1 GHz. For PEDOT, when the surface resistance was 200 Ω/$\square$, the shielding effectiveness was found to be 3 dB in the far field, and 7dB in the near field.

Two types of polyurethane(PU) ionomer dispersion having different type of soft segment, viz. Poly (tetramethylene adipate) glycol(PTAd), and polypropylene glycol(PPG) were emulsion blended. Viscosity of emulsion blend, mechanical, and surface properties of the emulsion cast films were determined as a function of blend composition. Mechanical properties showed a large scatter of data or negative deviation from the additivity rule, and this was attributed to the incompatibility of soft segments. Contact angle measurement indicated that air facing surface of emulsion cast film contained more of PPG PU, due probably to its smaller particle diameter compared to PTAd PU.

The sintering characteristics of commercial 7xxx series Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy have been investigated. Sintering system of this blended elemental powder has aspects of both transient and supersolidus liquid phase sintering. Transient liquids occur when the constitution point during sintering lies in a solid phase region but where the sintering temperature is greater than either the melting point of one of the constituent or a eutectic temperature. Supersolidus liquid phase sintering occurs when a preblended powder is heated to a temperature between the solidus and liquids. However, these reaction were restrained their inter diffusion due to the appearance of the oxide film. Thus, 7xxx series Al alloy is extremely sensitive to process variables, including particle size, holding time and sintering temperature. Therefore, above phenomenons were observed formation and behaviour of the liquid by using SEM and DSC.

In this paper, the physical and the volume resistivity properties due to linear low density polyethylene(LLDPE)/ethylene vinyl acetate(EVA) blends are studied. In order to measure the volume resistivity properties. the micro electrometer is used, the range of temperature and applying voltage are 25 to 120[$^{\circ}C$], form 100 to 1000[V] respectively. From FT-IR spectrum, LLDPE blended with EVA shows an absence of carbonyl and ether groups. From the experimental result of the volume resistivity properties, it is confirmed that the volume resistivity is decreased, which was attributed to the increase of molecular motions with the increase of temperature.

Polyaniline-Camphorsulfonic Acid Emeraldine Salt(PANI-CSA ES) was prepared by doping Polyaniline Ermeralidine Base(PANI EB) with DL-10-Camphorsulfonic Acid(CSA). PANI-CSA ES was solved in an organic solvent by ultrasonification for different periods of time and its surface resistivity was measured. Several PANI-CSA ES solutions solved in different organic solvents were prepared and their surface resistivities were measured. Thermal stability of film casted with PANI-CAS ES solution in m-cresol was estimated by measuring its surface conductivity and the content of this moisture and organic solvents. PANI-CSA ES was blended with different polymeric binders to improve its physical properties and the surface resistivities of several kinds of PANI-CSA ES blends were measured as a function of the content of PANI-CSA ES. PANI-CSA ES polymerized by 1-step oxidative polymerization was prepared and its surface resistivity was measured.
