용접산업이 발전함에 따라 가스메탈아크 용접에서 고내마모성의 콘택트 팁이 요구되어지고 있다. 현재 국내외에서는 콘택트팁에 대한 수명평가 기준이 없으며, 일부 업계에서 자체 규격을 제정하여 운용하고 있지만 근거가 명확하지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 콘택트팁의 신뢰성 평가기준을 제정하고자 하였다. 팁의 주요 파손기구로는 고온 마찰마모, 전기적 에로존, 번백 등이 있다. 신뢰성 평가는 경도 시험, 열처리 후 경도, 용접 마모, 전기전도도를 시험으로 구성되었다. 팁의 수명은 마모가 45%에 도달했을 경우 송급된 와이어 총 길이로 하였으며, 4시간까지 마모시험 한 결과를 근거로하여 한계수명을 추정하였다. 본 연구에서는 세 가지 조성의 다섯 가지의 콘택트팁에 대하여 4시간동안 내마모성 실험을 하였으며, 마모정도는 1시간 단위로 면적비를 백분율로 환산하여 측정하였다. 실험 결과 가공경화형팁은 1시간이내에 재결정 및 입자성장에 의한 경도 저하로 가공경화가 팁 수명에 지속적 영향을 주지 못하였다. 반면, 석출경화형팁은 석출경화 효과가 지속되어 가공경화형팁보다 수명이 향상 되었다.

본 연구에서는 에폭시/산무수물계에 경화촉진제를 첨가한 시료를 몰드(mold)내에서 등온 경화시킬 때 시료 내부의 온도변화를 측정하여 얻어진 온도-시간 곡선(temperature-time profile)을 조사하였다. 실험에 사용한 경화촉진제의 종류는 1-cyanoethy1-2-ethy1-4-methy1 imidazole(1E4MZ-CN), N,N-dimethy1 benzy1 amine(BDMA), 2,4,6-tris(dimethy1-aminomethy1)-phenol(DMP-30)이며 그들의 농도(c)는 1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5,phr그리고 경화온도(T$_{cure}$ )는 65,70,85,95$^{\circ}C$로 하였다. 경화가 진행되는 동안 시료내부의 온도는 초기에 경화온도로 상승한 후 본격적인 경화 반응이 일어나기 시작하여 온도가 급격히 상승하였다가 다시 감소하는 양상을 보였다. 온도-시간 곡선상에 나타나는 온도가 최고로 상승되는 시점(t$_{peak}$ )과 그 때의 온도(T$_{peak}$ )는 촉진제의 종류와 농도 그리고 경화온도에 의하여 영향을 받았다. 사용한 경화촉진제중에 DMP-30이 가장 짧은 t$^{peak}$ 값을 가져 가장 우수한 촉진 효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났으며, T$_{peak}$ 는 촉진제의 농도와 경화온도가 증가할수록 상승하였다. 그리고 경화촉진제의 농도와 경화온도의 변화에 따른 t$_{peak}$ 과 T$_{peak}$ 의 변화를 보면 촉진제 농도와 경화온도가 낮을 때 그 변화가 민감하여 2E4MZ-CN 이 가장 민감한 촉진제로 나타났으며 또한 T$_{peak}$ 에 영향을 주는 여러가지 요소들을 본 연구에서 얻어진 결과로부터 자세히 살펴보았다.

In this study, we examined the burning rate of the uncured propellant (with and without a curing agent application) in order to inspect the process of the HTPB solid propellant. The burning rate of the uncured propellant, that did not contain the curing agent, was approximately 9.7 mm/s at 1000 psi. In relation to the curing time, the burning rate was constant. The propellant, with the curing agent application, was approximately 8.1 mm/s showed a tendency of slowing as it burned. When the cure reaction rate was low, in accordance to the time, there were small changes in burn rate. However, when the cure reaction rate was high, the difference in burning rate was increased. The burning rate of a fully-cured propellant was approximately 6.8 mm/s, which appeared to be the lowest in order.

The curing time of the phenolic resin for the processing of brake pad is very important factor for reducing the processing cost. The curing time could be investigated by examining the reaction time of the phenolic resin and hexamethylenediamine. The reaction time has been studied by FT-IR, Differential Scanning Calolimetric Analysis (DSC), and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA).

자동차 보수도료 경화는 주로 열풍방식을 사용하고 있지만 적외선 가열방식을 사용하면 품질이 향상 되고 에너지 절약 등의 이점이 있다. 따라서 자동차 보수도료의 경화용으로 사용할 적외선 방사체를 개발하였다. 자동차 보수도료의 적외선 흡수 스펙트럼과 적외선 방사체 방사 스펙트럼이 일치해야 도료의 경화효율이 우수해짐을 알 수 있었고 열풍방식과 비교하여 경화된 도막의 품질 및 경화시간에 대한 실험데이터를 분석하였다.

Low temperature cure prepregs are being developed for use in the preparation of large-structured fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites with good performance. Cure behavior and chemorheology of low temperature cure epoxy resin system, based on epoxy resin, curing agent, and accelerators, were investigated to provide a matrix resin suitable for the prepreg preparation. Characteristics of cure reaction were studied in both dynamic and isothermal conditions by means of differential scanning calorimetry and rheometry. The low temperature cure epoxy resin system suggested in this study as a matrix resin was curable at $80^{\circ}C$ for 3 h, and showed the gel times of 120 and 20 min at 80 and $90^{\circ}C$, respectively. Thermal and mechanical properties of the cured sample were almost the same as high temperature cure counterparts.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare apical sealing ability and physical properties of MTA, MTA - AH-plus mixture (AMTA) and experimental Portland cement - Epoxy resin mixture (EPPC) for a development of a novel retro-filling material. Materials and Methods: Forty-nine extracted roots were instrumented and filled with gutta-percha. Apical root was resected at 3 mm and the retro-filling cavity was prepared for 3 mm depth. Roots were randomly divided into 3 groups of 15 roots each. The retro-filling was done using MTA, AMTA, and EPPC as the groups divided. Four roots were used as control groups. After setting in humid condition for 24 hours, the roots were immersed in 1% methylene blue dye solution for 72 hours to test the apical leakage. After immersion, the roots were vertically sectioned and photos were taken to evaluate microleakage. Setting times were measured with Vicat apparatus and digital radiographs were taken to evaluate aluminum equivalent thickness using aluminum step wedge. The results of microleakage and setting time were compared between groups using one-way ANOVA and Scheffe's post-hoc comparison at the significance level of 95%. Results: AMTA and EPPC showed less microleakage than MTA group (p < 0.05). AMTA showed the highest radio-opacity than other groups and the novel EPPC showed 5 mm aluminum thickness radio-opacity. EPPC showed the shortest initial and final setting times than other groups while the MTA showed the longest (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Under the condition of this study, the novel composite using Portland cement-Epoxy resin mixture may useful for retro-filling with the properties of favorable leakage resistance, radio-opacity and short setting time.

In this study, the wettability and mechanical properties of silicone rubber impression material were studied by using precipitated silica and fumed silica with different particle size and polarity (hydrophilic/hydrophobic). Curing time of impression material depended on the particle size of fumed silica. The curing time delayed about 9 minutes by using A300, which was the fumed silica with the smallest particle size among the silica used in this study. Wettability of rubber impression material improved with the introduction oi hydrophobic fumed silica(R972). Also, the optimum flow and mechanical properties could be obtained by using blended silica with the 90: 10 ratio of precipitated and fumed silica.

Liquid crystalline thermosetting epoxy oligomer DD-A was synthesized with Diglycidyl ether of 4,4'-dihydroxy-α-methylstilbene (DGE-DHMS) and aniline in a ratio of 2:1 and cured with a catalytic curing agent, 1-Methyl Imidazole. The gelation times and vitrification times were measured to create Time-Temperature-Transition Diagrams with liquid crystalline phase changes. It was found that the gelation and vitrification times were decreased as the concentration of curing agent increased, and the vitrification curve showing a typical S-shape was confirmed.

In this work, the effect of cure temperature and time on the thermal stability and the exothermic cure reaction peak of a waterborne resol-type phenol-formaldehyde resin, which may be used for preparing phenolic sheet molding compounds (SMC), has been investigated using a thermogravimetric analyzer and a differential scanning calorimeter. The weight loss of waterborne phenol-formaldehyde resin was mainly occurred at three temperature stages: near $200^{\circ}C,\;400^{\circ}C$, and $500^{\circ}C$. The carbon yield at $750^{\circ}C$ for the cured resin was about 62%~65%. Their thermal stability increased with increasing cure temperature and time. Upon cure, the exothermic reaction was taken placed in the range of $120^{\circ}C{\sim}190^{\circ}C$ and the maximum peak was found in between $165^{\circ}C$ and $170^{\circ}C$. The shape and the maximum of the exothermic curves depended on the given cure temperature and time. To remove $H_2O$ and volatile components, the uncured resin needed a heat-treatment at $100^{\circ}C$ for 60 min at least prior to cure or molding. Curing at $130^{\circ}C$ for 120 min made the exothermic peak of waterborne phenol-formaldehyde resin completely disappeared. And, post-curing at $180^{\circ}C$ for 60 min further improved the thermal stability of the cured resin.
