Fully biodegradable high strength composites or 'advanced green composites' were fabricated using yearly renewable soy protein based resins and high strength liquid crystalline cellulose fibers. For comparison, E-glass and aramid ($Kevlar^{(R)}$) fiber reinforced composites were also prepared using the same modified soy protein resins. The modification of soy protein included forming an interpenetrating network-like (IPN-like) resin with mechanical properties comparable to commonly used epoxy resins. The IPN-like soy protein based resin was further reinforced using nano-clay and microfibrillated cellulose. Fiber/resin interfacial shear strength was characterized using microbond method. Tensile and flexural properties of the composites were characterized as per ASTM standards. A comparison of the tensile and flexural properties of the high strength composites made using the three fibers is presented. The results suggest that these green composites have excellent mechanical properties and can be considered for use in primary structural applications. Although significant additional research is needed in this area, it is clear that advanced green composites will some day replace today's advanced composites made using petroleum based fibers and resins. At the end of their life, the fully sustainable 'advanced green composites' can be easily disposed of or composted without harming the environment, in fact, helping it.

According as gradually increasing the demand for Eco-friendly products it has been progressed fairly development at a field of printing and printing inks. The Inks are used by soy oil beginning of ink industry for preventing environment. Now it is possible to make Eco-friendly inks with vegetable ester. So it is not necessary to use petroleum-based solvents for preventing environment. But There is some problems if using vegetable ester to inks. Vegetable ester has high solubility, it causes misting and low viscosity of the Inks. So resin is required high performance. Thus, in this paper, I studied about the properties variation of the Varnish and inks According to using the phenolic modified rosin ester and Soy oil Methyl esters. The compared in order of average molecular weight by the GPC method, rheological properties were found by rotational rheometer, and emulsion behavior were compared by high speed emulsification tester.

In the oil and gas industry, composite materials should exhibit high flexibility and strength for offshore structures. Therefore, weak points in the composites should be improved, such as brittleness, moisture penetration, and diffusion of detrimental ions into nanometric pores. This study aimed to increase the strength, flexibility, and plugging of nanopores using single-layer graphene oxide (SGO) nanosheets. Therefore, SGO is added to unsaturated polyester resin at concentrations of 0.015 and 0.15 % with Normal Methyl Pyrrolidone (NMP) as a solvent for the formation of Nanographene Oxide Reinforced Polymer (NGORP). The mechanical properties of the prepared samples were tested using tensile testing (ASTM-D 638). It has been shown that incorporating SGO, approximately 0.015%, into the base resin resulted in enhanced properties such as rupture resistance forces increased by 745.61 N, applied stress tolerances increased by 4.1 MPa, longitude increased to 1.58 mm, elongation increased by about 2.38%, and rupture energy increased by about 204.51 J. Despite the decrease in tensile force strength properties in the manufactured nanocomposite with 0.15% SGO, it has exclusive flexibility properties such as a high required energy level for rupture of 5,576 times and a formability of 40% more than the base sample. It would be best to use NGORP manufactured from 0.015% nanosheets with exclusive properties rather than base samples for constructing parts and equipment, such as rebars, composite sheets, and transmission pipes, on offshore platforms.

We studied the effects of aged total petroleum hydrocarbons (aged TPH) on the survival of allochthonous diesel-degrading Rhodococcus sp. strain YS-7 in both laboratory and field investigations. The aged TPH extracted from a crude-oil-contaminated site were fractionized by thin-layer chromatography/flame ionization detection (TLC/FID). The three fractions identified were saturated aliphatic (SA), aromatic hydrocarbon (AH), and asphaltene-resin (AR). The ratio and composition of the separated fractions in the aged TPH were quite different from the crude-oil fractions. In the aged TPH, the SA and AH fractions were reduced and the AR fraction was dramatically increased compared with crude oil. The SA and AH fractions (2 mg/l each) of the aged TPH inhibited the growth of strain YS-7. Unexpectedly, the AR fraction had no effect on the survival of strain YS-7. However, crude oil (1,000 mg/l) did not inhibit the growth of strain YS-7. When strain YS-7 was inoculated into an aged crude-oil-contaminated field and its presence was monitored by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), we discovered that it had disappeared on 36 days after the inoculation. For the first time, this study has demonstrated that the SA and AH fractions in aged TPH are more toxic to an allochthonous diesel-degrading strain than the AR fraction.

본 연구는 폴리에스터 가소제를 이용한 내제트유성 PVC계 실란트 개발에 관한 것이다. PVC 공중합체에 아디프산 글리콜 폴리에스터 가소제(Songcizer P-3000) 또는 DOP를 배합하여 연료유 함침 전후의 칩입도 변화, 용해도, 흐름성 및 인장 접착 신율을 측정하였다. 연료유 함침 전후 칩입도 변화 및 용해도를 측정한 결과 폴리에스터 가소제의 내제트유성이 DOP 가소제를 사용한 것 보다 작은 것으로 나타났다. PVC 공중합체에 Songcizer P-3000의 배합비를 중량비로 500 phr로 고정하고 접착성 향상제인 DCDP (dicyclopentadiene)계 석유수지를 400 phr까지 배합한 결과 첨가량에 비례하여 접착 신율이 감소하였다. 탄산칼슘은 연료유의 확산을 방지하였고 Songcizer P-3000을 사용한 경우 용해도를 감소시키는 결과를 얻었다.

열 수축 쉬-트용 점착제의 접착성, 내한성 및 유동성을 향상시키기 위해 점착제를 구성하는 각 성분들의 종류 및 함량에 따른 물성을 평가하였다. 본 연구에서는 베이스 폴리머로서 내후성이 우수한 부틸고무를 선정하여 실험을 진행하였다. 점착부여제는 석유계 수지가 로진보다 우수한 접착력을 나타내었으며, 함량이 감소함에 따라 유동성이 저하됨을 알 수 있었다. 폴리부텐은 저 분자량보다 고 분자량의 물성이 우수하였다. 카본블랙의 경우 입자경이 클수록 물성 향상에 유리하였다. 탄산칼슘을 중량제로서 혼입할 경우 카본블랙과 함께 혼합시키는 경우가 바람직하였다.

ABS 수지의 반응온도 및 반응시간에 따른 저온 열분해를 연구하기 위하여 ABS 수지의 저온열분해를 회분식 반응기를 이용하여 상압하에서 $425{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ 영역에서 수행하였다. 열분해 시간은 20~80분까지 하였고 열분해로 생성된 성분은 지식경제부에서 고시한 증류성상온도에 따라 가스, 가솔린, 등유, 경유, 중유로 분류하였다. ABS 수지의 열분해에서 80% 이상의 전환율을 얻기 위해서는 반응온도 $500^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 반응시간 60분 이상을 유지하여야 한다. 최종적으로 생성된 분해유는 가스 중유 > 가솔린 > 경유 > 등유 순으로 나타났으며, 온도와 반응시간이 증가함에 따라 중유 및 경유 성분이 늘어났다.

Polymer concrete (PC) has been favoured over Portland cement concrete when low permeability, high adhesion, and/or high durability against aggressive environments are required. In this research, a new class of PC incorporating Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) is introduced. Four PC mixes with different MWCNTs contents were examined. MWCNTs were carefully dispersed in epoxy resin and then mixed with the hardener and aggregate to produce PC. The impact strength of the new PC was investigated by performing low-velocity impact tests. Other mechanical properties of the new PC including compressive, flexural, and shear strengths were also characterized. Moreover, microstructural characterization using scanning electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of PC incorporating MWCNTs was performed. Impact test results showed that energy absorption of PC with 1.0 wt% MWCNTs by weight of epoxy resin was significantly improved by 36 % compared with conventional PC. Microstructural analysis demonstrated evidence that MWCNTs significantly altered the chemical structure of epoxy matrix. The changes in the microstructure lead to improvements in the impact resistance of PC, which would benefit the design of various PC structural elements.
