본 연구에서는 고휘도 백라이트에 있어서 일반적으로 휘도 향상을 위해서 사용하는 프리즘 혹은 편광프리즘 등의 고가의 기능성 광학시트를 사용하지 않고, 확산시트만을 사용하여 고성능의 BLU 를 제조할 수 있는 핵심부품으로서 프리즘 도광판에 대해서 연구하였다. 고휘도 프리즘 도광판을 구현하는 방법으로 먼저, 광학적으로 시뮬레이션을 통해서 가능성을 검증하고, 기본적인 광학구조의 설계를 수행한 후, 이를 stamper 방식의 사출성형으로 실물을 구현하여 설계의 재현성을 확인하는데 역정을 두었다. 실험결과, 17 inch, 두께 8 mm 사양의 모니터용 도광판에 있어서, 고휘도 BLU를 구현하기 위해서 도광판 밑면과 윗면에 프리즘 구조를 부가한 도광판의 경우에 기존의 인쇄형 도광판보다 약 20%의 휘도향상 효과를 확인할 수 있었으며, 향후 확산시트만을 사용한 고휘도 백라이트로의 응용가능성을 검증할 수 있었다.

The LCD frame is an important part which supports the BLU of medium/large sized TFT-LCD. To produce it efficiently, it is necessary to achieve the molding process improvement from 1 cavity to 2 cavity system. Because 2 cavity mold is compact and its hot-runner zone is broadened, it is difficult to control the temperature on the mold. In this study, injection molding analysis on the frame in 2 cavity process with FEA(Finite Element Analysis) software is carried out to estimate its quality. The calculated injection molding pressures and maximum deflection in 1 and 2 cavity processes are 41.13 MPa and 1.62 mm, 40.49 MPa and 1.66 mm respectively. The measured maximum flexure load and surface roughness of the left and right frame of 2 cavities are 209 N and 0.08 ${\mu}m$, 193 N and 0.10 ${\mu}m$ while those in 1 cavity are 140 N and 0.13 ${\mu}m$. Thermal image shows that the maximum standard deviation of the temperature on left and right side of 2 cavity mold is $1.23^{\circ}C$. The simulation and measurement results show that the quality of the frame in 2 cavity injection molding process as a whole is not worse than that of 1 cavity system. But maximum flexure loads of the frame in 2 cavity process are far greater than that in 1 cavity process.

A cosmetic manufacturing process requires a mold that is inevitable for mass production. Cosmetic containers are one of major factors affecting the customer's purchase decision. In addition, the manufacturing cost in cosmetic container comprises a large portion of the entire product cost. Therefore, a mold satisfying the economical feasibility, aesthetics and functionality is necessary. Among the cosmetic containers, square shape containers have a tendency of having a short shot defect product. The square shaped cosmetic containers are mostly produced as a side gate shape on the two-plate molds. On the other hand, there are two disadvantages, such as gate trace and post processing requirement. The overlap-gateproposed in this study has the characteristics of intaglio gate cutting and no need for post processing. The delivery system of the overlap gate was simulated and compared with the side gate via Moldflow. The improvement in flow, frozen rate, density, and Air trap was confirmed. Based on the simulation results, the mold and performed injection molding was fabricated. In this study, the possibility of the mass production of high aesthetic and functionality cosmetic containers was verified.

Translucent alumina is a potential candidate for high temperature application as a replacement of the glass or polymer. Recently, due to the increasing demand of high power light emitting diode (LED), there is a growing interest in the translucent alumina. Since the translucent property is very sensitive to the internal defect, such as voids inside or abnormal grain growth of sintered alumina, it is important to fabricate the defect-free product through the fabrication process. Powder injection molding (PIM) has been commonly applied for the fabrication of complex shaped products. Among the many parameters of PIM, the flowability of powder/binder mixture becomes more significant especially for the shape of the cavity with thin thickness. Two different positions of the gate were applied during PIM using the disc type of die. The binder was removed by solvent extraction method and the brown compact was sintered at $1750^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours in a vacuum. The flowability was also simulated using moldflow (MPI 6.0) with two different types of gate. The effect of the flowability of powder/binder mixture on the microstructure of the sintered specimen was studied with the analysis of the simulation result.

As the consumer market in the cosmetic, vehicle manufacturing and aerospace industries grows, the demand for manufacturing industries using on injection mold technology. Also, such manufacturing technology of metal machining is expensive, and the shape is limited. Cosmetic cushion fact products are divided into outer relevant to the exterior of the product and inner containers containing the actual contents. In the case of the inner container, it needs to be combined with the upper and lower cases. As environmental regulations are strengthened internationally, the use of a large number of component parts can result in significant losses in recycling and economics. Therefore, this study aims to perform injection molding analysis through injection molding simulation to develop a cushion fact container that can be recycled through the unification of products and materials using polypropylene to cope with environmental regulations. In the case of injection molding conditions, Injection Time(sec): 4.5, Cooling Time(sec): 13, Resin Temperature($^{\circ}C$): 240, and Pressure(MPa): 30 were determined. The results of injection molding simulation according to the two design methods were compared with the sync mark which shows the problem of filling and injection molding.

Injection molding is used in many industrial fields such as home appliances, vehicle parts, and electronic device parts because various resins can be molded, leading to mass production of complex shapes. Generally, the empirical prediction method is used to set the initial processing conditions of injection molding. However, this approach requires a lot of cost and its presented solution is not accurate. In this paper, injection molding was simulated through the Moldflow^TM in order to manufacture the spacer for gas insulated switch. Through the simulation, the flow of the resin with respect to the diameter of the inlet was analyzed. It was found that the process was possible at a higher resin temperature as the diameter of the inlet increased. In addition, through thermal analysis during injection of the resin, it was confirmed that a stagnation phenomenon occurred at the insert portion during injection molding, and the temperature of the resin was higher than that of the mold. As in this paper, if the spacer is manufactured by optimizing the injection hole and the temperature of the injection process based on simulation, it is expected that the spacer can be manufactured with high productivity.

In this study, the relationship between fiber orientation and mechanical properties with the injection pressure of polyamide-6/glass fiber composite materials manufactured by the injection molding process was investigated. Also, an actual experimental data and finite element model-based simulation data were analyzed. Specimens were manufactured through the injection molding process setting the injection pressure differently to 700, 800, 900, and 1000 bar, respectively. A morphological analysis and orientation of the PA6/GF composite material were observed using Optical microscope. Through tensile and flexural strength tests, the mechanical properties of the PA6/GF composite materials with the injection pressure were studied. As a result, it was confirmed that the mechanical properties were the superior under the injection pressure of 900 bar molding conditions. In addition, the mechanical properties of the actually manufactured specimen (PA6/GF) and virtual engineering S/W((Digimat, Abaqus) were used to compare and analyze the analysis results for the mechanical properties, and based on the reliable DB, the physical properties of the PA6/GF composite characteristics were studied.
