The processing of phenolic composite reinforced with hybrid of PAN based/Rayon based carbon fabrics using FBG sensor and thermocouple was studied. Once the composite is cured, the reflection spectrum from the FBG sensor shifted the center wavelength with an increase in the temperature. Also, the change in the form of the reflection spectrum obtained during the cooling process of the cure cycle was caused by the thermal shrinkage. During the curing process, uniform distribution of the temperature profile was observed throughout the sample.

In this study, the behavior of R/C beam strengthened with carbon fiber laminate (C.F.L.) is analyzed from the test results. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the shearing rehabilitation effects of R/C beam with C.F.L. Test parameters are the thickness of C.F.L. and existence of stirrups. Test results how that the shear capacity of specimen without stirrups was increased and shear capacity of specimen with stirrups was not increased due to the insufficient fabrication of specimen and curing.

세가지 가교제 즉 황, tetramethyltyiuram disulfide (TMTD) 및 dicumyl peroxide(DCP)로 각각 가교시킨 카본블랙 충진 고분자 망상 시료들에 대해 일축연신 실험 을 통해 얻은 Mooney plot를 분석, 가교 탄성율 Gc와 엉킴 탄성율 Ge를 각각 구하였다. 각 가교계에 대하여 Gc를 통해서는 가교 사슬간의 평균분자량, 망상사슬과 카본블랙간 결합체 의 밀도 및 평균 면적 등을 Gc를 통해서는 카본블랙 첨가에 따른 관경비를 각각평가하였다. 황 가교제의 경우 Gc가 가장 높았으며 망상 사슬과 카본블랙간의 결합이 가장 잘 이루어졌 다. TMTD와 DCP가교제의 경우는 황의경우보다 카보블랙 입자와의 결합력은 낮았으나 결 합체들의 분포는 더욱 조밀하게 나타났다. 또한 Ge평가로부터는 TMTD 가교계가 카본블랙 충진에 의해 관경이 가장크게 증가함을 알수 있었다.

This paper aims to investigate the micro-mechanical behaviour of tow geometry with forming pressures and densities of foams during the curing process of plain weave carbon fibre fabric prepregs onto polymer foams. In order to find out and compare deformation patterns between different forming conditions, tow parameters such as amplitude and crimp angle etc. are investigated. From the observation results, geometric difference in the tow architecture with respect to forming conditions and foam characteristics were found. To observe the micro-deformation of the fabric structure, appropriate specimens from carbon fibre-foam sandwich structures are sectioned and observed under the microscope.

Interfacial evaluation and damage sensing of the carbon fiber/epoxy-amine terminated (AT)-polyetherimide (PEI) composites were performed using micromechanical test and electrical resistance measurement. As AT-PEI content increased, the fracture toughness of epoxy-AT-PEI matrix increased, and thus their interfacial shear strength (IFSS) was improved due to the improved toughness. After curing process, the changes in electrical resistance (ΔR) with increasing AT-PEI contents increased gradually because of the changes in thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) and thermal shrinkage of matrix. Matrix fracture toughness was correlated to the IFSS, residual stress and electrical resistance. The results obtained from the electrical resistance measurement during curing process, reversible stress/strain, and durability test were consistent with modified matrix toughness properties.

Psychrotrophic bacterial strains utilizing crude oil as their sole carbon and energy sources were isolated from Antarctic soil and sea sediments. One of the strains named AI-I showed the hightest activity for emulsification of crude oil and the best growth. This strain was identified as Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. A. calcoaceticus AI-I strain contains a plasmid (OCT plasmid) which was related to the utilization of alkane compounds. The molecular weight of this plasmid was estimated to be about 110 Md by agarose gel electrophoresis. The cured strain of A. calcoaceticus AI-I strain (OCT ) was not able to utilize normal hydrocarbon compounds ($C_6C_{17}$) as carbon and energy sources. A. ca/coaceticus AI-1 was resistant to ampicillin and sensitive to streptomycin, kanamycin, chloramphenicol, tetracycline. The results suggested that this strain carries a plasmid (OCT) responsible for oil utilization which is quite stable and might be concerned with antibiotics resistancy.

PCM (Prepreg Compression Molding) process is a high-speed molding technology that can manufacture high-quality CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) parts. Compared to the autoclave process, it generates less waste and can significantly reduce cycle time, so various studies are being conducted in the aerospace and automobile industries. In this study, in order to improve the quality of the PCM process, a molding method was developed to increase the compression pressure of the press step by step according to the curing behavior of the prepreg. It was confirmed that this multi-stage compression molding technology is a good means to produce high-quality CFRP products and shorten cycle times. And, the laminated prepreg at room temperature was immediately put into the mold and preheated and molded at the same time, so that it could be molded without a separate preheating process. In addition, as a result of applying the same process conditions optimized for flat plate molding to three-dimensional shapes, a product similar to a flat plate in appearance could be made without the process of establishing process conditions.

This study investigated the impact of accelerated carbonation on Ordinary Portland Cement(OPC) paste that had undergone steam curing at 500℃·hr. Two carbonation environments were examined: atmospheric carbonation(1atm, 20% CO₂) and pressurized carbonation(5atm, 99% CO₂). Chemical analysis using X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR) were conducted, along with physical characterization via scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and compressive strength testing. Results indicated that atmospheric carbonation with 20% CO₂ concentration significantly densified the internal microstructure of the OPC paste, leading to enhanced compressive strength. Conversely, pressurized carbonation at 5atm with 99% CO₂ concentration resulted in rapid densification of the surface structure, which hindered CO₂ diffusion into the sample. This limited the extent of carbonation and prevented the improvement of physical properties.

In order to substitute current aluminum sabot and to increase the penetration performance of the kinetic energy projectiles, the research and development program for composites sabot has been conducted. For carbon/epoxy composites sabot, unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced epoxy prepreg was chosen and thick sectioned composites preforms with the different fiber angles along the circumferential direction of sabot were prepared by compression molding under the careful processing conditions at $150^{\circ}C$ for 1hour with $70kgf/cm^2$ curing pressure. The composites sabot demonstrated a weight reduction by approximately 30% than that of current aluminum sabot. The muzzle velocity of a kinetic energy projectile with composites sabot was measured to be about 63m/s higher than that with aluminum sabot. These results imply that the penetration performance is expected to be considerably increased when the composite sabot is applied to the kinetic energy projectiles.

Purpose: This study is a mechanical strength supplementation of denture base resin Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is in general use for denture base resin of the partial and full denture, however, The polymerization process of PMMA is not stabilized. Because of compatibility problems, preceding studies were performed, which were enhancing mechanical strength(Camilo Machado 2007),(Ana M. 2008), addition filler to materials property(Ayse Mese, 2008), self curing method(Hiroshi Shimizu, 2008). Methods: The carbon fiber and polyacetal filler, reinforced the mechanical strength for improving the stability of denture base resin were supplemented to the self cured resin. The Modulus of elasticity and the restoring force were calculated by tensile test. Results: The strengths of the heat and self cured resin were respectively decreased and increased, when the filler was supplemented to the denture base resin and the modulus of elasticity of both heat and self cured resin were not increased, when the filler was supplemented to the denture base resin. Conclusion: The restoring forces of self cured resin containing 10% filler were increased, when the filler was supplemented to the denture base resin.
