In Korea, silicone type sealant is widely used for construction site. Before the silicone type, urethane type is one of the main type sealants. However, the weathering property is less than the silicone type, the urethane type is replace by the silicone one. Still the urethane type is used for the inside of the buildings for the perimeter of the window. The silicone type sealants are better in weathering property than those of the urethane type sealants. Except the weathering property urethane type sealant has its own advantage like movement property, low cost and so forth. There are many research results for the outdoor weathering of the sealants, but in Korea there are no results for the outdoor weathering for construction sealants. This research is focused on the outdoor weathering of the urethane sealants, how to measure the degradation, and compare the products which used in Korea. The outdoor weathering test is usually time consuming, thus we designed specialized device for accelerating the result.

This study was carried out to analyze the effects on mechanical properties of deteriorated wood member by outdoor condition. The surface color, mechanical properties and structural stability of traditional wooden structures, exposed in water and UV, could be changeable. For the purpose, accelerated weathering test based on outdoor condition was carried out. The weathering time levels were composed 0, 500, 1000, 1,500 and 2,000 hours and mechanical properties were evaluated on each specimen according to weathering time level. Bending properties were decreased on weathering but recovered after 1,000 hours. Fatigue and impact strength were decreased to 1,000 hours and did not changed since then. Abrasion resistance was minimized in 1,000 hours. This results could be utilized for effectively stability management of traditional wooden structures and members.

This paper reports on the evaluation of weathering resistance, tracking test and salt-fog of various kinds of cycloaliphatic epoxy systems. It was found that UV irradiation induced the loss of hydrophobic level due to the chain scission attack at the surface. It could be seen that samples containing an UV absorbent/antioxidant and a silicone oil additive knave a good performance in weathering ageing, whereas ATH filled ones have high resistance against tracking failure than others. Under salt-fog test, specimens mixed with silicone oil could suppress leakage current development. It was thought that silicone oil mixed into cycloaliphatic epoxy system could lead to lower the surface energy and to retain hydrophobic properties for a long time, which are desirable for outdoor performances.

Korea Institute of Construction Materials founded Seosan Outdoor Exposure Test Site 2005 at Korea, which is a part of Worldwide Exposure Network (WEN). To evaluate the test site along with other exposure test sites, three different types of paints have been under real time weathering conditions at three major weathering test facilities around the world. Using these test specimens several spectroscopic experiments along with physical tests have been performed. Also acceleration tests have been performed using the same paints. The correlation of weathered paints among three different test facilities and accelerated test results has been compared. From the results the reliability of Seosan Weathering Test Facility and reasonable life time prediction tests are discussed.

The color changing of the wood surface was tested by accelerated weathering test that can simulate the outdoor condition with short period. In early parts of accelerated weathering test, weight and volume of specimen all were increased due to the moisture evaporation by its high temperature and illumination level, but weight and volume of specimen all were decreased from middle parts to last. However, significancy showed between control group and accelerated weathering test group in terms of weight and volume. According to the results of color-difference meter, in the early parts of the accelerated weathering test lightness, redness and yellowness all showed a clear increasing or decreasing trend. However, after three weeks all values were almost never change. Until the early parts of the test, lightness was decreased and there was not a considerable change after three weeks in the test. Redness showed a some change in early parts of the test, but this also showed not great change after middle parts of the test as like lightness. Yellowness also showed same pattern. These results could be verified through the visual inspection. As like weight and volume, significancy showed between control group and accelerated weathering test group in terms of color-difference test. In all accelerated weathering test group, color-differences of after test was lower than that of before test. To correctly analyze this cause, more additional research will be need on each of temperature, humidity and illumination factors.

The biogas holder is composed of an outer membrane and an inner membrane which are subject to outdoor exposure and gas exposure respectively. The influence of weathering conditions on the photo-degradation of a biogas holder was investigated. Tests were performed under three different methods - outdoor exposure tests (Seosan, Arizona), accelerated tests (Xenon-are lamp) with the outer-membrane of biogas. Moreover, the changes in the aging process were monitored using color difference, gloss, the contact angle and an optical microscope. Changes in physical properties, such as decrease reduction in gloss, decrease in the contact angle, increase in color difference were observed in the aging process. The comparison between membrane 3B, 4B and membrane 5B under xenon-arc were discussed. Membrane 5B was very sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) ray. There were many difficulties in the outdoor exposure test due to acid rain, dust, and stain resistance.

Weathering of wood in a region of acid rain was performed by the test which thin veneers of Sitka spruce were exposed to outdoor weathering for a total of 18 weeks, with a daily soaking for 30 minutes in acidified water in the pH range 2~5.6. The weathering measured by weight loss and loss in maximum failure load in tension was accelerated by the increase in the acidity of acidified water and in the period of outdoor exposure. It was also shown that the weathering was accelerated even with low acidic conditions in the case of long exposure period, although the weathering was rapidly accelerated with high acidic conditions. When compared the degree of weight loss with that of loss in failure load by weathering, the latter was much greater. From the results of this research, it could be concluded that at pH 4.0 or below of precipitation, the acceleration of weathering of exterior wood would become serious problems, which would be caused deterioration in performance of exterior wood.

This study selected an outdoor RCD'S and verified behavior of change in the housing with time. Weathering tests were carried out as outdoor exposure test (90 degrees, 37 degrees) and laboratory test (xenon lamp), and the results were evaluated based on color difference, gloss, contact angle, and optical microscope. This study can provide basic data for standardization of development and performance evaluation on RCD'S housing products.

Fault rate of RCD is increasing due to deterioration and long period usage in domestic. According to Korean standards, the RCDs are installed in panel boards. When RCDs are installed at outdoor, the RCDs must be protected from uv, water etc. by using the housing. However, many RCDs are exposed to the external environment. As a results, many RCDs have malfunctions so that cause the electrical accidents. The RCDs manufactured by four makes were used as the sample to weathering test. Futhermore, those were analyzed the ingredients of RCD'S using SEM, EDX and FT-IR/TAR before and after weathering test.

석간주, 진사, 황토, 자황, 웅황, 석록, 뇌록, 석청 및 백토 등 천연 무기안료 9종의 성능과 수명을 평가하고자 실내 촉진내후성과 옥외폭로 시험을 수행하였다. 실내 촉진내후성 시험법은 국내 기후 특성 및 단청의 위치 환경을 반영하여 설계하였고 필드 재현성을 확인하기 위해 서울 숭례문과 대전 연구소 등 2개소에서 옥외폭로 시험을 병행하였다. 또한 누적 자외선량을 기준으로 안료 표면의 물리적 특성 변화를 모니터링하였다. 이 결과, 석간주와 백토는 초기에 미세균열이 발생하지만 안정화된 반면 진사와 석록은 균열이 지속적으로 확대되었다. 황토와 뇌록은 수분 및 송진에 의한 얼룩이 두드러졌고 자황, 웅황 및 석청은 입자의 광택 저하가 나타났다. 각 시험별 안료의 색 변화는 절대적인 수치 차이가 있을 뿐 색도 변화 양상은 유사하였다. 백토와 뇌록의 색차(𝚫E) 값이 5 이하로 가장 작고 진사는 28 이상으로 컸다. 안료 표면의 물리적 변화는 실내 촉진내후성 시험보다는 옥외폭로 시험이, 옥외폭로 시험에서는 대전 연구소보다 서울 숭례문에서 가중되었다. 이는 옥외폭로 시험이 큰 폭의 온·습도 변화, 분진 침적에 따른 오염 등 다양한 환경에 노출되고, 특히 서울 숭례문은 총 누적 자외선량(334 MJ/m²)에 도달하는 데까지 오랜 시간이 소요되어 노출 기간이 장기화되었기 때문이다.
