Reaction between silica and silane coupling agent without solvent was investigated using transmission mode Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Bis[3-(triethoxysilylpropyl) tetrasulfide] (TESPT) was used as a silane coupling agent. After removing the unreacted TESPT, formation of chemical bonds was analyzed using FTIR and content of reacted TESPT was determined using TGA. Content of the coupling agent bonded to silica increased with increase in the coupling agent content, but the oligomers were formed by condensation reaction between coupling agents when the coupling agent was used to excess. In order to identify bonds formed among silica, coupling agent, and rubber, a silica-coupling agent-BR model composite was prepared by reaction of the modified silica with liquid BR of low molecular weight and chemical bond formation of silica-coupling agent-BR was investigated. Unreacted rubber was removed with solvent and analysis was performed using FTIR and TGA. BR was reacted with the coupling agent of the modified silica to form chemical bonds. Polarity of silica surface was strikingly reduced and particle size of silica was increased by chemical bond formation of silica-coupling agent-BR.

In order to increase the coupling strength between bisphenol-A type epoxy resin and filler SiO$_{2}$ it was treated to filler with silane coupling agent[KBM-603]. To observe how silane coupling agent effects on dielectric breakdown strength of Epoxy/SiO$_{2}$ compound material, specimens of eight type were made like following. (A-1, A-2), (B-1, B-2), (C-1, C-2), (D-1, D-2) (see 2-2. Specimen) Specimen treated with silane coupling agent had always bigger dielectric breakdown strength than non-treated specimen. Under the influence of silane coupling agent, increment ratio of dielectric breakdown strength at specimen manufactured by hand drill was very bigger than that of specimen inserted spherical electrode. Therefore, as the specimen shape was varied, it was studied on effect that silane coupling agent affects on dielectric breakdown strength of Epoxy/SiO$_{2}$ compound material.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the surface treatment of widely used in dental of silane coupling agent concentration on the shear bond strength of denture base resin and self curing resins. Denture base resin surface was treated with silane coupling agent concentration, after self curing resins were injected shear bond strength was measured. The results of silane coupling agent(MPS) concentration on the shear bond strength of Vertex self curing resin showed that the value of 5%, 7% groups were higher than that of other group(P<0.05). Silane coupling agent concentration on the shear bond strength of Kooliner resin showed that the value of 5% was highest(P<0.05). Therefore, we could conclude 5% MPS to strengthen effectively the shear bonding property of denture base resin and self curing resins of this study.

Effect of coupling agent on the mechanical properties of PP/GF blend was investigated. The flexural modulus, Izod impact strength, elongation at yield and tensile strength were improved with using coupling agent. Mopological studies revealed that PP and GF were incompatible and addition of coupling agent was very effective to enhance the compatibility, result in mechanical properties.

Thickness effects of coupling agent on residual bending stress were investigated in $Polyimide/SiO_2$ joints during thermal cycling. Thickness and peel strength of $\gamma$-APS coupling agent were measured and correlated with solution concentration and residual bending stress. The variation of residual bending stress with temperature was also measured for various thicknesses of the coupling agent. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for residual bending stress in $Polyimide/SiO_2$ joints.

Influence of a silane coupling agent on the reatraction behaviors of NR vulcanizates reinforced with carbon black and c lay was studied. Bis-(3-(triethoxysilyl)-propyl )-tetrasulfide (TESPT) was used as a silane coupling agent. The vulcanizates containing the silane coupling agent were, on the whole, recovered faster than those without the silane coupling agent. However, for the vulcanizate with the higher clay content at low temperature region (below $-12^{\circ}C$), the vulcanizate containing the silane coupling agent was recovered slower than that without the silane coupling agent. The recovery difference of the vulcanizates with and without silane coupling agent decreased with increase of clay content. The experimental results were explained with crosslink density, modulus, and bound rubber content.

Blends of silicone rubber (VMQ) and liquid crystalline polymer (LCP) were prepared using a melt blending technique in the presence and absence of glass fiber and coupling agents. The effect of glass fiber and coupling agents on the thermal, dynamic mechanical, morphological pro-perties and cure characteristics of VMQ/LCP blends were studied. The vinyl silane coupling agent showed a significant effect on the above mentioned properties of VMQ/LCP blends by reacting at the interface between VMQ and LCP. The viscosity of the VMQ/LCP blends decreased with the addition of a coupling agent. A substantial improvement in storage modulus of VMQ/LCP blends was observed in the presence of glass fiber and coupling agents. However, as a coupling agent vinyl silane proved to be better than amine for the VMQ/LCP-glass-containing blends. The thermal stability of the pure silicone rubber was higher than those of the blends. This high thermal stability of silicone rubber was attributed to the Si-O-Si bonds. However, the thermal stability of the blends decreased further in the presence of a coupling agent, possibly due to a decrease in blend crystallinity.

The purpose of this research was to find influence of compounding materials on electrical properties of silicone rubber such as tracking characteristic. The tracking characteristic was tested through controlling the ATH, a widely use anti-tracking agent. Regarding the particle size and coupling agent of ATH, compound silicone rubber with ATH of coupling agent and larger diameter showed better anti-tracking properties. It can be included that ATH of coupling agent use vinyl silane, dispose of tracking characteristic was achieve excellant results.

The effect of titanate coupling agents on the electrical and mechanical properties of conductive poly (vinyl chloride)-nickel composite was studied as functions of filler concentration, the variation of the amount of titanate coupling agents and the type of titanate coupling agents. It was found that the electrical and mechanical properties of PVC-Ni system were improved by the treatment of titanate coupling agents, but the excessive use of titanate coupling agents influenced to give worse properties.
