We investigated the change of mechanical properties of UP using mixture of SM with VAc or MA that have low glass transition temperature when polymerized instead of SM only for diluents of UP. In case of using mixture of SM/MA, it was elucidated that the toughness of UP was more improved than using SM only. But in case of SM/VAc, it was observed that the content of mixture could not affect on toughness. It was concluded that these results are caused by the effect of each diluents mixtures on stress-relaxation due to phase separation and on decrease glass transition temperature of UP is quite different from each other.

SMC(Sheet molding compound)욕조 생산시 발생하는 폐 FRP를 보강재로서 재활용하기 위하여 불포화 폴리에스테르 매트릭스 수지에 보강하고 보강재와 매트릭스 수지의 계면 결합력을 증진시키기 위하여 보강재를 실란계 커플링제[3-methylacryloxyviny1 silane (MAOS)]로 전 처리하여 복합재를 제조하고 기계적 물성 및 계면현사에 대하여 관찰하였다. 보강률이 20wt%인 복합재의 굴곡강도 및 굴곡탄성률이 각 각 110MPa, 8.0GPa로 가장 우수하였으며 커플링제(MAOS)의 노동가 0.50wt%인 복합재의 굴곡강도 및 굴곡탄성률은 약 10%정도 향상되어 각 각 120MPa, 9.2GPa을 나타내었다. 또한 주사전자현미경 관찰 결과 보강재를 커플링제(MAOS)로 처리한 복합재의 보강재와 매트릭스 수지는 물리, 화학적을 잘 결합하여 보강재와 매트릭스 수지의 계면에서 pull out현상이 확인되지 않았으며 크랙도 발생하지 않았다.

Methacrylate functional silanes with different methylene spacer groups have been synthesized and the orientation effect and absorption behavior of these silane coupling agent were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR). The mechanical properties of glass bead/polyester composites are found to be dependent on the spacer group of treated silane coupling agent. The absorption rate of the silane coupling agent onto the fumed silica surface decreases with increasing the number of the methylene spacer in methacrylate functional silanes. Silane molecules containing long spacer groups are adsorbed onto silica slightly bowed with respect to the substrate surface. The relationship between silane molecular structure and mechanical properties of polymer composites is also investigated in order to improve hot/wet properties of glass fiber/polyester composites.

This study dealt with the influence of the replacement ratio of rapidly-chilled steel slag on fluidity and compressive strength of unsaturated polyester polymer concretes. The rapidly-chilled steel slag used in this study, a by-product which is produced by refining pig iron during the manufacture of steel, was controled by a air-jet method which rapidly cools substance melted at a high temperature. Experimental results show that fluidity and compressive strength of unsaturated polyester polymer concretes increase with increasing replacement ratio of rapidly-chilled steel slag. Use of rapidly-chilled steel slag was found to be effective for improving fluidity and compressive strength of rapidly-chilled steel slag.

In order to lower the surface energy of unsaturated polyester(UPE) resin, small amount of siloxane-ester copolymers were incorporated. The copolymers were synthesized by a condensation polymerization using ethylene glycol and hydroxy termintated polydimethylsiloxane as diols and maleic anhydride and phthalic anhydride as dibasic acids. The modified UPE resin surface was characterized by dynamic contact angle (DCA), peel strength measurements of pressure sensitive adhesives and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(ESCA). As the copolymer content in the blend and PDMS content in the copolymer are increased, both advancing and receding contact angles against water are increased. The strength required to peel-off the pressure sensitive adhesive tape from the modified UPE resin decreased dramatically with the addition of the copolymer. ESCA results indicated that polydimethylsiloxane segments are predominated at the outer surface of the modified UPE resin.

Generally, polymer mortar made with unsaturated polyester(UP) resin has a high curing shrinkage. This is an inadequate as repair material and construction products that have been widely used for years recently. To overcome these problems, polymer researchers and engineers have used shrinkage-reducing additives, which are usually specific thermoplastic polymers. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effects of shrinkage-reducing additive on the curing shrinkage and strengths of UP mortar. UP mortars are prepared with expanded polystyrene(EPS) ratio in styrene monomer(SM), (EPS/PS, PS=EPS+SM), and the ratio of total polystyrene resin(PS) to UP resin, (PS/UP). And it is tested for viscosity of UP resin, slump-flow, working life, flexural and compressive strengths, and curing shrinkage tests. From the test results, viscosity of resin for UP mortar increases with increasing PS content. Curing shrinkage of UP mortar is considerably smaller than that of plain UP mortar, nevertheless, reduction in the strengths is not recognized according to adding PS resin. In this study, we can obtain the optimum mix proportions of UP mortar using PS resin which made of waste expanded polystyrene.

In this study, various unsaturated polyester (UPE) resins were prepared from the condensation polymerization of mixtures of saturated (isophthalic acid : IPA) and unsaturated (maleic anhydride : MA) dibasic acids with propylene glycol (PG), neopentyl glycol (NPG). The critical surface tension (Υ$_{c}$) for the surface characteristics of a solid were estimated by Zisman plot, and the structure-property relationship was investigated by measuring the rheology of resins. The values of Υ$_{c}$ for glass of solid were 30.5 mNㆍm$^{-1}$ for UPE resin liquids. As the content of NPG in a PG/NPG glycol mixture increased, both the contact angle and the surface tension of the UPE resin liquids were found to decrease. The dynamic viscoelasticities of UPE resins with different glycol molar ratios were also measured. Shear rate dependence of viscosity and angular frequency dependence of storage, and loss modulus tended to decrease with increasing NPG content.

Unsaturated diol (UD) was prepared from the esterification of maleic anhydride with diethylene glycol (DEG). Unsaturated polyesters modified with rosin (UPMR) or with rosin maleic anhydride adduct (RMA) from 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) and rosin (UPMRH) were prepared by the reaction of UD with RMA or RMA-HEMA. After crosslinking of UPMR and UPMRH with styrene and methylmethacrylate (MMA), respectively, solvent resistance, tensile strength, and adhesion property of the resins were measured. UPMR crosslinked with styrene or MMA shows an excellent resistance to water and acid. Solvents resistance and tensile strength of UPMR using styrene as crosslinking agent were increased compared with those of UPMR using MMA as crosslinking agent. UPMRH showed better solvents resistance and tensile strength than UPMR. Adhesion strengths of UPMR crosslinked with styrene and MMA were 1.61 and 3.02 MPa, and those of UPMRH were 2.32 and 3.89 MPa, respectively.

The purpose of this study is to investigate toughening of unsaturated polyester resin by addition of polyuretane liquid rubber. In general, unsaturated polyester resin has strong brittleness in spite of its high strength Therefore; it is difficult to use unsaturated polyester mortar for the place where impact resistance is demanded. In this study, it was evaluated strength and Gf by using to polyurethane liquid rubber. As a result, the toughness of unsaturated polyester mortar was increased by polyuretane liquid rubber.
