In this study, rubber vulcanization property, change in physical property, morphology and chemical characteristics of blended rubber depending on various IR/CR ratio were investigated for the purpose of the improvement of material property and durability. The effect of surface treatment by chlorine on the friction coefficient was also studied with various conditions of surface treatment. In terms of vulcanization property, as the amount of CR content increased, the speed of cure was decreased, while the density of crosslinking stayed constant. It means hardness and modulus were increased as the CR content increased. It is related to change in cure property and mechanical strength was improved by the effect of crystallization reaction. In the aging property, as the CR content increases, the changed amount of basic properties were decreased, which acts as a reducing factor in change of aged property by complementing weak point in mechanical property. It was found that the degree of property change for surface treated samples were reduced. According to the microscopic result, the degree of surface dispersion on rubber blends was increased by increasing CR content. Rubber surface showed uniform direction in pattern with increased smoothness and luster by treatment with chlorine. The degree of rubber reforming was measured by the remaining amount of chlorine and the friction coefficient was dependent on the amount of chlorine combined with rubber. In the initial stage of surface treatment, from 10 to 40 phr, the friction coefficient of specimen was rapidly reduced. However, as the concentration of chlorine solution increased, the change in friction coefficient was decreased.

Surface modified carbon nanotubes were applied into the epoxy composites to investigate its tribological property. Carbon nanotubes reinforced epoxy composites were fabricated by casting. Effects to the tribological property of loading concentrations and types of surface modification of carbon nanotubes were investigated under sliding condition using linear reciprocal sliding wear tester. The results show that the small amount of carbon nanotubes into the epoxy exhibited lower weight loss than the pure epoxy. It is concluded that the effect of an enormous aspect ratio of carbon nanotubes surface area which wider than conventional fillers that react as interface for stress transfer. As increased the contents of carbon nanotubes, the weight loss from the wear test was reduced. And the surface modified carbon nanotubes show better tribological property than as produced carbon nanotubes. It is due that a surface modification of carbon nanotubes increases the interfacial bonding between carbon nanotubes and epoxy matrix through chemical bonding. Changes in worn surface morphology are also observed by optical microscope and SEM for investigating wear behaviors. Carbon nanotubes in the epoxy matrix near the surface are exposed, because it becomes the lubricating working film on the worn surface. It reduces the friction and results in the lower surface roughness morphology in the epoxy matrix as increasing the contents of the carbon nanotubes.

An epoxy coating was designed to give a hydrophobic property on its surface by modifying it with three types of Amino Terminated Polydimethylsiloxane (ATP), and then effects of the modification on the structure, surface hydrophobic tendency, water transport behavior and hence corrosion protectiveness of the modified epoxy coating were examined using FT-IR spectroscopy, hydrothermal cyclic test, and impedance test. The surface of epoxy coating was changed from hydrophilic to hydrophobic property due primarily to a phase separation tendency between epoxy and modifier by the modification. The phase separation tendency is more appreciable when modified by ATP with higher molecular weight ATP at higher content. Water transport behavior of the modified epoxy coating decreased more in that with higher hydrophobic surface property. The resistance to localized corrosion of the modified epoxy coated carbon steel was well agreed with its water transport behavior and hydrophobic tendency.

Fuel Cell is used stacking metal or polymer substrate. This hydro property of substrate surface is very important. Usually, surface property is hydrophilic. The surface oxidation of SUS is investigated through plasma treatments with an atmospheric-pressure dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) for increasing hydrophilic property. The plasma process makes an experiment under various operating conditions of the DBD, which operating conditions are treatment time, plasma gas mixture ratio, the plasma source supply frequency. Two kinds of SUS substrate, SUS-304 and SUS 316L, were used. Discharge frequency has a crucial impact on equipment performance and gas treatment. After the plasma treatment of a SUS plate, highly improved wettability was noted. But, when high oxygen supply, the substrate damaged seriously.

Fractal property of the passivated steel surface was investigated on the basis of scaling analysis with a special focus on its relationship with corrosion resistance. For this purpose, the surface of stainless steel was intentionally oxidized under a variety of passivation conditions and its scaling property was analyzed by a triangulation method. The morphology of the passivated steel surface was satisfactorily evaluated with fractal dimension. From the chronoamperometry and impedance measurement, it proved that lower fractal dimension leads to more enhanced corrosion resistance. The higher passivity of the steel surface with lower fractal dimension was discussed in terms of active area and structural imperfection.

In wafer level molding progress, the thermal releasing failure phenomenon is shown up as the important problem. This phenomenon can cause the problem including the warpage, crack of the molded wafer. The thermal releasing failure is due to the insufficiency of adhesion strength degradation of the molding tape. To solve this problem, we studied experimental method increasing the release property of the molding tape through the plasma surface treatment on the wafer substrate. In this research, the vacuum plasma treatment system is used for release property improvement of the molding tape and controls the operating condition of the hydrophilic($O_2$, 100kW, 10min) and hydrophobic($C_2F_6$, 200kW, 10min). In order to perform the peeling test for measuring the releasing force precisely, we remodel the micro scale material property evaluation system developed by Korea institute of industrial technology. In case of hydrophilic surface treatment on the wafer substrate, we can figure out the releasing property of molding tape increase. In order to grasp the effect that it reaches to the release property increase when repeating the hydrophilic treatment, we make an experiment with twice treatment and get the result to increase about 12%. We find out the hydrophilic surface treatment method using plasma can improve releasing property of molding tape in the wafer level molding process.

The purpose of this study was to quantify the relationship between the sense of touch and mechanical properties of man-made leather. The first was to develop the five conversion equations which convert mechanical properties of man-made leather into five factor scores, which express five factors of the sense of touch(surface property, stretchiness, thickness & weight, thermal property(warmth & coolness), and moisture property(sticky & clingy)). The second was to develop the conversion equation which converts five factor scores into score of the sense of touch. Five factor scores were predicted by the following mechanical properties; surface property factor by log2HB and (log2HB)2, stretchiness factor by logEM, thickness & weight factor by logT, log2HB, logW, thermal property factor by logT, logHB, logSMd, and moisture property factor by logMMD, RC, RC2, (logEM)2, RT2. Subsequently, these five factor scores were converted into score of the sense of touch. The predictive abilities of the developed equations were satisfied.

In this study, the surface properties of PET film were analyzed after plasma surface treatment. After plasma treatment of surface roughness and XPS were evaluated to analyze the chemical property, while the surface potential decay and surface resistivity was measured to analyze the electrical characteristic. When plasma discharge treatment was conducted for less than 10 minutes, the electrical insulating property was found to be improved through evaporation of low molecular weight materials and cleaning of surface. However, when the treatment was conducted for more than 10 minutes, the insulating property was decreased due to excessive discharge energy. Analysis of chemical characteristics showed that 10-minute treatment resulted in increase of C-O and O=C-O. However, when treated for more than 10 minutes, they were relatively decreased.
