As the demand for natural gas that satisfies environmental regulations increases, the quantities of natural gas cargo that carrier can load is also increasing. Natural gas is transported in a liquefied state at -163 ℃ to increase loading efficiency. Among several LNG CCS types, MARK-III types are generally adopted in terms of loading efficiency. The secondary barrier adhesives of the MARK-III, nevertheless, is subjected to tensile stress due to thermal contraction and tension in the environment. In terms of these reasons, local analysis of the adhesive to evaluate the stress state must be carried out. According to previous studies, local analysis is unavailable since material properties for secondary barrier adhesives have not been reported. Thus, in this study, the cryogenic tensile test and coefficient of thermal expansion of epoxy and polyurethane (PU15, PU45), which are most widely used at cryogenic temperatures, were experimentally analyzed. At cryogenic temperature, the mechanical behavior of the polyurethane adhesive was better than epoxy of the adhesive. the joint of FSB and epoxy adhesive of the secondary barrier has the maximum coefficient of thermal expansion difference at 25 ℃ and minimum at -150 ℃, respectively.

Wearable medical device has been a resurgence of interest thanks to the development of technology and propagation of smart phone in recent years. Various types of wearable devices have been introduced and available in market. Capacitive coupled electrode which measures electrocardiogram over cloth is able to be applied wearable device. In previous approaches of capacitive electrode, they need proper pressure for stable contact of the electrode to body surface. However, wearable device that gives pressure on body surface is not suitable for long-term monitoring. In this study, we proposed adhesive polyurethane-based capacitive electrode for patch-type wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring device. Self-adhesive polyurethane make the electrode and whole system be adhered to the surface of skin without any pressure. The patch-type system is consisted of analog filter, analog-to-digital converter and wireless transmission module and designed to be attached on the body as a patch. To validate the feasibility of the developed system, we measured ECG signal in stable and active state and extracted heart rate. Therefore, we observed skin response after long-term attachment for biocompatibility of the adhesive polyurethane and adhesive strength of it. The result shows the possibility of applying the developed system for ECG monitoring in real-life.

Adhesive joints are widely used for structural joining applications in various fields and environmental conditions. Polyurethane (PU) and Epoxy adhesives are now being used for liquefied natural gas (LNG) carriers at cryogenic temperatures. This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of epoxy and PU adhesive bonds between Triplex sheets at normal and cryogenic temperatures. The most significant result of this study is that for all adhesives tested, there is a significant decrease in peel strength at cryogenic temperatures. However, the reasons for the decrease in peel strength for epoxy and PU adhesives differ. Consequently, PU adhesives can be considered better suited for use in applications requiring high bonding performance at cryogenic conditions, such as in LNG carriers.

The material of choice for functional and esthetic reconstruction of maxillofacial defects is silicone. Silicone has appropriate physical properties for maxillofacial prosthesis but it has weak edge strength. Therefore, a proper combination of silicone and polyurethane sheet is recommended to improve this weakness. Various primers are also used to enhance the adhesive strength between silicone and polyurethane sheet. The purpose of this study was to determine the adhesive strength of silicone and polyurethane sheet. Silicone elastomer mixture was made by admixing MDX4-4210 elastomer (40%) and Silastic Medical Adhesive Type A(60%). This silicone elastomer mixture was attached to polyurethane sheet, using one of three different primers(1205, S-2260, or A-304), treated for 1, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours. These were then polymerized in room temperature, dry-heat oven or microwave oven. Six specimens per each group, a total of 270 specimens were prepared for final test. The differences of T-peel bonding strengths were then determined by a test. The differences of T-peel bonding strengths were then determined by a test method that was recommended by American Society for Testing and Materials C794-80. The results were statistically analyzed using the ANOVA and Mutiple Range Tests(Tukey' HSD). The reults were as follow. 1. Type of primer, primer reaction time, and methods of polymerization showed significant correlation on the T-peel bonding strengths in adhesiveness between silicone and polyurethane sheet. 2. A-304 primer showed statistically higher in T-peel bonding strength than otehr type of primers except for the polymerization in microwave oven with reaction times of 2, 6 hours(p<0.05). 3. No significant differences in T-peel bonding strength were observed among the polymerization methods. 4. The effect of reaction time by the primer type and polymerization method showed statistically significant differences in bonding strength among different reaction times. And in most cases, reaction time of 1 or 2 hours showed higher T-peel bonding strength.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the adhesive properties of polyurethane mixed aqueous dispersions by omitting the primer, dealing with the preparation of skins for synthetic leather with excellent adhesion by omitting the pre-treatment process. The two-component mixed polyurethane water dispersion was prepared by synthesizing an ester-based polyurethane resin (PU-T) and a carbonate-based polyurethane resin (PU-C) to obtain the final resin. As a result of measuring the peel strength of the adhesive specimens omitting the pre-treatment agent, it was confirmed that the state adhesive strength (ethylene vinyl acetate (middle): $4.2kg_f/cm$ and rubber (outsole): $4.4kg_f/cm$) there was. This makes it possible to omit the pre-treatment process which has been indispensably used in the shoe manufacturing process, thereby reducing the process time and reducing the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) generated in the pre-treatment product, resulting in environmentally advantageous.

Pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) was prepared by semi-batch emulsion polymerization of acryl monomers in the presence of reactive and non-reactive carboxylated polyurethane resin (PUR). Effects of the PUR type, its content, and crosslinker feeding method on the adhesive properties of the PSA was investigated. In this experiment, the PSA prepared with the reactive PUR showed better adhesive property then the PSA with the non-reactive PUR. Especially, peel strength of the PSA, where acetoacetoxy ethyl methacrylate and 1,6-hexane diamine as crosslinkers were introduced, was dramatically enhanced in severe humidity condition due to the interfacial crosslinking.

A macroazoinitiator (MAI) containing a poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) segment was intercalated in the gallery of sodium montmorillonite (Na-MMT). Acrylic monomers were polymerized using this MAI intercalated in Na-MMT to prepare the acrylic copolymer nanocomposite (AN), which is a multiblock copolymer composed of two segments, an acrylic copolymer and PEG intercalated in Na-MMT (Na-MMT/PEG). When AN was used to modify the reactive hot melt polyurethane adhesive (RHA), the acrylic copolymer segment and Na-MMT/PEG synergistically enhanced the initial bond strength evolution and reduced the set time, even when the amount of Na-MMT in RHA was < 1 wt%. The viscosity of RHA increased and the tensile properties of the cured RHA film decreased due to modification with AN. These variations were more evident as the Na-MMT content in AN was increased.
