The purpose of this study was to remove the excessive air foaming which was produced in mixing the RSLMC(latex-modified concrete with rapid-setting cement) by choosing the best antifoam agent type. A series of RSLMM(latex-modified mortar with rapid-setting cement) experiments were carried out as a basic experiments for RSLMC with the main experimental variables such as antifiamer types(A, B, C, D), antifoamer contents(0, 1, 2, 3%), and latex contents(10, 15%). Air content test and compressive strength tests were carried out to measure the improved properties of RSLMM. SEM analysis, also, was carried to observe the formation of latex film. The results of RSLMM showed that the decrease of 50% air content was obtained by admixturing an antifoam agent by 1%. This made the strength enhanced and the workability be within the purposed. The best properties of compressive strengths was obtained at latex content of 15% and D antifoam agent of 1%. compressive strength increased about 32.6%. The analysis of SEM results no difference in a formation of later film.

Soluble latex protein fraction excreted from Euporbia lathyris laticifer was resolved by 10% SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to identify distinctively displayed latex major protein bands including ELp65, ELp55, ELp43, ELp32 and ELp23. Among them, ELp65 was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel permeation chromatography and ion exchange chromatography. Its N-terminal amino acid sequencing revealed its homology to the leading region of mature peptide of tomato p69a subtilisin-like protease, suggesting a certain role involved in plant defense system. In the analysis of Southern blot hybridization using PCR-amplified tomato p69a probe DNA, E. lathyris genome was suggested to have a gene family consisting of 3-5 gene members putatively encoding subtilisin-like proteases.

The service life of agricultural concrete structures is designed in about 30 to 100 years, but actual service lift is estimated in an average 18 years. Therefore, as the service life of the agricultural concrete structures increases, necessity of repair by aging from various environment condition exposure increases. This study was to determinate the optimum mix proportion of latex modified repair mortar and to improve the durability performance of agricultural concrete structures. The physical and mechanical tests of latex modified repair mortar were performed. Tests of flow, compressive strength, flexural strength and bond strength tests were conducted. Test results show that the optimum nex proportion of latex modified repair mortar, when used in 5% latex volume fraction (weight of cement), 1.5% antifoaming agent (weight of latex), 0.2% PVA fiber volume fraction, 1:2 (binder-sand ratio), 10% silica fume replacement ratio (weight of cement), could result in best performance for the repair of agricultural concrete structures.

This study investigated microstructural changes of cured urea-formaldehyde (UF) resins mixed with aqueous rubber latex emulsion after intentional acid etching. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used in order to better understand a hydrolytic degradation process of cured UF resins responsible for the formaldehyde emission from wood-based composite panels. A liquid UF resin with a formaldehyde to urea (F/U) molar ratio 1.0 was mixed with a rubber latex emulsion at three different mixing mass ratios (UF resin to latex = 30:70, 50:50, and 70:30). The rate of curing of the liquid modified UF resins decreased with an increase of the rubber latex proportion as determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurement. Ultrathin sections of modified and cured UF resin films were exposed to hydrochloric acid etching in order to mimic a certain hydrolytic degradation. TEM observation showed spherical particles and various cavities in the cured UF resins after the acid etching, indicating that the acid etching had hydrolytically degraded some part of the cured UF resin by acid hydrolysis, also showing spherical particles of cured UF resin dispersed in the latex matrix. These results suggested that spherical structures of cured UF resin might play an important role in hindering the hydrolysis degradation of cured UF resin.

Concrete containing styrene-butadiene latex is widely used, nowadays, as a protective system for bridge. Latex modification mortar have taken advantage of latex modification concrete advantage that is used in existing, Also, when repair, protection and sticking performance of concrete overlay waterproof agent were known as that are good. Replace and experimented from fine aggregate to recycled aggregate to secure economic performance than existing latex modification concrete. Recycled fine aggregate has low quality because it contains large amount of old mortar. So, its usage is limited to a lower value-add, such as the roadbed material etc. This study is purposed to improve the performance of mortar made of recycled fine aggregate. For this, recycled aggregate mortar was produced with latex, and fluidity, strength were examined. Test result indicate that mortar using recycled fine aggregate is higher compressive and flexural strength than mortar using river sand.

In this study, we observed the effect of carboxylated SBR latex and zinc oxide on styrene-butadiene-styrene( SBS) composites for improving abrasion and debris. SBS composite, which added only silica, showed poor mechanical properties, NBS abrasion, and debris, caused by strong filler-filler interaction of silica. In case of adding carboxylated SBR latex, mechanical properties, NBS abrasion and debris of SBS composite were improved. Because of carboxyl group of carboxylated SBR latex interacted with silanol group of silica. Both carboxylated SBR latex and zinc oxide were added, SBS composite showed highest mechanical properties, NBS abrasion, and debris by forming ion cluster between carboxylated SBR latex and zinc oxide. By FT-IR analysis, ion clusters were confirmed that observed zinc carboxylated group stretch peak at $1550{\sim}1650cm^{-1}$ range. SBS composite, SC-4, showed excellent mechanical properties ; tensile strength $156kgf/cm^2$, elongation 936%, tear strength 59.4kgf/cm ; and excellent abrasion characteristics ; NBS abrasion 338%. Also, debris of SC-4 was minimized and showed wave-shape in fracture surface.

The binder plays important roles in determining the quality of pigment coating. In addition to its primary role of binding the pigment to the base paper, the binder performs several other important functions. The binder, also referred to as the adhesive, is the dominant in the aqueous phase of the formulation. Thus it plays a major role in determining viscosity, rheology, water release, and setting time for the coating. Latices based on styrene-butadiene dominate the market for synthetic paper coating binders. Consumption is high and is expected to increase further due to the present tendeyncy toward high-solids coating. The purpose of this study is understanding the impact of various parameters of latex(i.e. Tg, Particle size) affecting prontabilities and optical properties of the coated papers, as well as providing basic information on the use of amphoteric latex for improving print qualities of coated papers. Recently, amphoteric latices, Which are cationic at low pH's but turn anionic at high pH's have attracted interests of paper scientists and engineers. Therefore we investigated the effect of the Tg(glass transition temperature) and particle size of amphoteric latex on the coating qualities. We also studied the effect of mixing ratios (Amphoteric / Anionic)of latex on the coating qualities. Our results showed that Tg and particle size of amphoteric latex have to be controlled for optimizing coated paper qualities. The formulation consisting of 10 parts of amphoteric latex and 5 parts of anionic latex gave best results in ink receptivity, smoothness, air permeability, opacity and sheet gloss. If the results hold for the industrial paper coatings, the amount of expensive amphoteric latex can be reduced while achieving best available printing quality.
