The purpose of this study was to observe the bonding strength between tooth surface (enamel and dentin) and restorative filling materials which are two composite resins (Clearfil and Concise) and Glass ionomer cement, after etching with 50% phoshoric acid and 37% citric acid. To measure the bonding strength in enamel, the labial surface of upper anterior tooth was cut flatly with using carborundum disk and polished with sand paper disk, and to measure in dentin, the dentin surface was prepared by grinding upper part of posterior tooth horizontally. After washing the tooth surface with water and drying with air blast, the prepared tooth surface was etched. In glass ionomer cement, 50% phosphoric acid and 37% citric acid were used, in Clearfil 40% phosphoric acid was used and in Concise, 50% phosphoric acid and 37% citric acid were used as etchant for 1 minute. After the copper band which is 5 mm in diameter and 5 mm in height was fixed on the prepared surface and each filling material was inserted into the copper band, the hooking loop was inserted into filled material in the copper band before setting to make it easily that the load is applied on the specimen. After all specimens were immersed in water at $37^{\circ}C$ for 1 week, this specimen was placed on the load cell of tensile test apparatus, and specimen was pulled at the cross-head speed of 0.8 mm per minute. The following results were obtained 1) In glass ionomer cement, the bond strength obtained by 37% citric acid was higher than one obtained by 50% phosphoric acid in enamel and dentin surfaces. The bond strength obtained in non-etched surface was much less than one by etchants in enamel and dentin surface. 2) In Clearfil, the bond strength obtained by 40% phosphoric acid was 4 times more than one obtained by non etch ant. 3) In Concise, the bond strength obtained by 50% phosphoric acid was almost same as one obtained by 37% citric acid, and the bond strength obtained by non etch ant was much less than one obtained by etchants.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of molecular formation of adhesive on interface characterization of thermoplastic composites. Carbonfiber/polyetherketoneketone (CF/PEKK) thermoplastic composites were fusion bonded and PEEK, PEI adhesive bonded using a high-temperature oven welding process. In addition, lap shear strength test and fracture surface analysis using a digital optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were performed. As a result, the adhesive bonding method improved adhesion strength with interphase having increased molecular formation of ether groups, ketone groups, and imide groups which mainly constitutes the CF/PEKK and adhesives. Furthermore, it was found that the use of PEEK containing more ether groups and ketone groups forms a more strongly bonded interphase and enhances the adhesive force of the CF/PEKK composites.

Recently, the demand has increased for protective clothing materials capable of shielding the wearer from bullets, fragment bullets, knives, and swords. It is therefore necessary to develop light and soft protective clothing materials with excellent wearability and mobility. To this end, research is being conducted on hybrid design methods for various highly functional materials, such as carbon nanotube (CNT) sheets, which are well known for their low weight and excellent strength. In this study, a hybrid protective material using CNT sheets was developed and its performance was evaluated. The material design incorporated a bonding method that used a binder for interlayer combination between the CNT sheets. Four types of binders were selected according to their characteristics and impregnated within CNT sheets, followed by further combination with aramid fabric to produce the hybrid protective material. After applying the binder, the tensile strength increased significantly, especially with the phenoxy binder, which has rigid characteristics. However, as the molecular weight of the phenoxy binder increased, the adhesive force and strength decreased. On the other hand, when a 25% lightweight-design and high-molecular-weight phenoxy binder were applied, the backface signature (BFS) decreased by 6.2 mm. When the CNT sheet was placed in the middle of the aramid fabric, the BFS was the lowest. In a stab resistance test, the penetration depth was the largest when the CNT sheet was in the middle layer. As the binder was applied, the stab resistance improvement against the P1 blade was most effective.

Steel plate bonding technique is most widely used in strengthening of existing concrete structures, but it has inherently a problem of the premature failure such as interface separation and rip off. So far, many studies have been arid out in the manner of laboratory tests for the reinforced concrete beams to find out he mechanism of the premature failure. However, in order to verify the characteristics of the premature failure, more reasonable local investigations are needed rather than such relatively global experimental works. In this study, therefore, the double lap test which simulate the pure shear loadings and the half beam tests which consider combined flexure-shear force have been done. There are, however, difficulties in getting the normal stress caused to premature failure, so that finite element analysis was performed, too. In numerical study, material nonlinearity was considered, and the interface element was applied to model the interface between steel plate and adhesive. From the results of experimental and numerical studies, a realistic failure criterion on the separation of steel plates has been derived.

Thed effects of Ar or Oxygen RF plasma treatment on the adhesion behavior of Cr films to polyimide sub-strates have been investigated by using SEM, XRD, AES, and $90^{\circ}$peel test. By applying RF plasma treatment of the polyimide surface prior to metal deposition, the peel adhesion strength of Cu/Cr films sputtered onto the fully cured BPDA-PDA polyimide was highly increased from about 3g/mm to 90 ~ 100g/mm. Improved peel adhesion strength of Cr/polyimide interfaces due to RF plasma treatment was attributed to the contributions from surface cleaning, Cr-polyimide bonding at the interface, and force required for plastic deformation of the film. While the surface topology change of the polyimide caused by RF plasma treatment makes a little contri-bution to the improved adhesion.

Presented is a preliminary design concept of the carbon-glass hybrid composite rebars for the application in the construction field. A glass fiber rod with indentation is used for the core of the rebar. Carbon fibers are placed over the glass core by pultrusion. To increase the mechanical locking force and bonding surface, carbon filament windings are added in the hoop direction over the carbon face. Finite element analysis and test were conducted to evaluate the effective stiffness and strength of the rods. The results show that the effective axial stiffness of the rebar with indentation are about $50\%$ of the straight rebar.

In this study, the cooling performance of a C/C composite material structure with metallic cooling tubes fixed by elastic force without chemical bonding was evaluated experimentally using combustion gas in a rocket combustor. The C/C composite chamber was covered by a stainless steel outer shell to maintain its airtightness. Gaseous hydrogen as a fuel and gaseous oxygen as an oxidizer were used for the heating test. The surface of these C/C composites was maintained below 1500 K when the combustion gas temperature was about 2900 K and heat flux to the combustion chamber wall was about 9 $MW/m^2$. No thermal damage was observed on the stainless steel tubes which were in contact with the C/C composite materials. Results of the heating test showed that such a metallic-tube-cooled C/C composite structure is able to control the surface temperature as a cooling structure(also as a heat exchanger), as well as indicating the possibility of reducing the amount of the coolant even if the thermal load to the engine is high. Thus, application of the metallic-tube-cooled C/C composite structure to reusable engines such as a rocket-ramjet combined cycle engine is expected.

The brittle nature in most FRP composites is accompanying other forms of energy absorption mechanisms such as fibre-matrix interface debonding and ply delamination. It could play an important role on the energy absorption capability of composite structures. To solve the brittle nature, the adhesion between pines and composites was studied. Thermal treated pines were attached on carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) by epoxy adhesives. To find the optimum condition of thermal treatment for pine, two different thermal treatments at 160 and $200^{\circ}C$ were compared to the neat case. To evaluate mechanical and interfacial properties of pines and pine/CFRP composites, tensile, lap shear and Izod test were carried out. The bonding force of pine grains was measured by tensile test at transverse direction and the elastic wave from fracture of pines was analyzed. The mechanical, interfacial properties and bonding force at $160^{\circ}C$ treated pine were highest due to the reinforced effect of pine. However, excessive thermal treatment resulted in the degradation of hemicellulose and leads to the deterioration in mechanical and interfacial properties.

The new technique has been used to determine the soil-reinforcement interaction. The testing apparatus is essentially a triaxial cell fitted with the capability to house a hollow cylinderical sample. A hollow cylinderical sand specimen with a concentrical layer of reinfarcing material sandwitched in the middle is used in this investigation. The reinforcement is fastened at the base. The hollow specimen can be viewed as a "unit sheet" of a soil-reinforcement composite system of infinite horizontal extent. Axial load as well as inner and outer chamber pressures can be applied to perform a test. The specimen is first subjected to an isotropic stress state corresponding to the overburden pressure. Next, an extension test by reducing the axial load is carried out. The specimen is "loaded" to failure by either the breakage of reinforcing material (tensile failure) or slippage which takes place at the soil-reinforcement interface (i.e. the overcoming of the bonding capacity). Since the reinforcement is fastened at its lower end to the base, any tendency of relative movement between the reinforcement and the sand during an extension test can induce tensile force in the reinforcement thus forming a "reversed pull-out" test condition. Preliminary test results have demonstrated positively of the new approach to test the soil-reinforcement interaction. Reinforcing elements of different extensibility were used to study the deformbility of reinforced soil. Furthermore, both the breakage and the pull-out modes of failure were observed.

PURPOSE. This study was to evaluate the effect of grinding of the inner metal surface during the porcelain try-in stage on metal-porcelain bonding considering the maximum temperature and the vibration of samples. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Ninety-one square prism-shaped ($1{\times}1{\times}1.5mm$) nickel-chrome cast frameworks 0.3 mm thick were prepared. Porcelain was applied on two opposite outer axial surfaces of the frameworks. The grinding was performed from the opposite axial sides of the inner metal surfaces with a low-speed handpiece with two types of burs (diamond, tungsten-carbide) under three grinding forces (3.5 N, 7 N, 14 N) and at two durations (5 seconds, 10 seconds). The shear bond strength (SBS) test was performed with universal testing machine. Statistical analyzes were performed at 5% significance level. RESULTS. The samples subjected to grinding under 3.5 N showed higher SBS values than those exposed to grinding under 7 N and 14 N (P<.05). SBS values of none of the groups differed from those of the control group (P>.05). The types of bur (P=.965) and the duration (P=.679) did not affect the SBS values. On the other hand, type of bur, force applied, and duration of the grinding affected the maximum temperatures of the samples, whereas the maximum vibration was affected only by the type of bur (P<.05). CONCLUSION. Grinding the inner metal surface did not affect the metal-porcelain bond strength. Although the grinding affected the maximum temperature and the vibration values of the samples, these did not influence the bonding strength.
