This study is a fundamental research for recycling waste polyethylene film(WPF) in asphalt concrete for roadway pavement. The objective of this study is to develop technology of making waste polyethylene asphalt mixture and evaluate properties of the asphalt concrete containing WPF. Asphalt concrete for surface course of pavement was produced through an appropriate mix-design using dense-graded and gap-graded aggregates. Marshall mix design, indirect tensile strength test, wheel tracking test and tensile fatigue test were performed. Test result showed that some WPF asphalt mixtures had a high tensile property and good resistances against rutting and fatigue cracking, compared with normal asphalt mixture.

Degradation of the starch-polyethylene composite film by an activated sludge treatment and a soil burial test was examined. The treated films had deformed structures which were resulted from the removal of starch during the treatments. The added auto-oxidant caused the degradation of the polyethylene matrices and the crosslinking reactions after the oxidation of polyethylene chains as well. As a result of soil burial test, the degradation reaction of the composite film containing corn oil as an auto-oxidant was, however, prevalent : number- and weight-average molecular weight of polyethylene decreased, while the molecular weight distribution increased.

Optimal reaction condition for the starch hydrolysis by ${\alpha}$-amylase was determined and the sugar produced under the optimal condition was measured for estimating the biodegradation of strach-filled polyethylene film. Optimal ranges of temperature and pH were 70~$80^{\circ}C$ and 6.3~7.3, respectively. The 100 units of ${\alpha}$-amylase per mg starch were enough for the enzyme reaction. Reaction with polyethylene film containing 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% starch in the above condition showed that the sugar produced was proportional to the starch content in film. This relationship provides a calibration curve for determining the starch content of search-filled polyethylene film. The average amount of hydrolyzed starch was about 40% of total starch in film. The rest of the starch is considered to be still dispersed in the film and not to be attacked by ${\alpha}$-amylase. In this experiment, we could obtain the higher biodegradability through the $\alpha$-amylase reaction in the above optimal condition than the reported one which had been Improved by adding surfactant.

Damage to the highly pathogenic avian influenza virus(H5N1) continues to increase, but there is a lack of antiviral research. In this study, we analyze antiviral properties on H5N1 by coating Cu/TiO2 photocatalyst on polyethylene films. The specimen was manufactured a photocatalyst master batch and coated both sides of the 3-layer polyethylene fabric at 280℃ from the extrusion coating machine. The results showed a 99.9% decrease in the Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. In particular, H5N1 type highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses, which is capable of human infection, has been found to decrease 99.9% within five minutes of contact with Cu/TiO2 films. Antibacterial effects of films coated with photocatalyst are known, but this study also confirmed the antiviral effects.

This paper is for the properties of the oxidation-proof of the partially discharged and of the molecular motion on chlorinated PE Film. this paper also shows the properties of the molecular motion of the ${\gamma}$ ray irradiated PE Film. 1 In the surface of the PE Film enforce chlorination, C-Cl be distributed up to 10 $\mu$m deep. 2. In according to the development of the chlorination, the measure of crystalization decreased and cross link occured. 3. Chlorination PE Film control the oxidation on ozone to occuratlon by partial discharge and it lost bonding chlorine. 4. in according to chlorination, ${\gamma}$ absorption in motion of CH2 main chain of PE drcreased by chlorine stbstitution.

폴리에틸렌 나프탈레이트(PEN)는 열적 및 물리적 특성이 우수한 고분자로서 포장재료, 필름, tire cord 등으로 그 이용범위가 확대되고 있는 고분자이다[l]. 그러나 강직한 분자사슬을 가지고 있는 PEN은 고결정성과 소수성 둥으로 인해 흡습성, 제전성 및 염색성이 좋지 못하고 성형가공이 어려운 단점도 있다. 이미 동종계열인 PET의 경우 그러한 단점을 개선하고자 합성반응시 diol과 같은 제 3의 단량체를 사용하여 공축합하는 연구[2-3]가 시도된바 있으나 PEN의 경우 아직 이에 관한 연구보고가 없는 실정이다. (중략)

As am economical and effective way of antimicrobial film fabrication , antimicrobial agents were coated on the LDPE film with a binder mediu. the fabricated films were then applied tomodified atmosphere packaging of fresh strawberries. A binder of polyamide was selected for the coating medium, based on the stability in water. 1% grapefruit seed extract-coated film showed the antimicrobial activity on the plate media against EScherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, bacillus subtilis , Bacillus cereus, Leuconostoc mesenteroides, Micrococcus flavus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, while one with 10% Coptis chinesis extract inhibited only M. 림편 and one coated with 10% rheum palmatum extract did not inhibit any of 10 strains tested. The packages of fresh strawberries by using antimicrobial agents-coated films created the gas compositions of O2 1.4-5.5% and CO2 5.7-7.9%, and contributed to reduced growth of total aerobic bacteria and yeast/molds on the produced. However, their lower microbial count was not correlated directly with the reduced decay of the fruits.

Gas permeability of low density polyethylene (LDPE) film containing zeolite powder for $CO_2,\;O_2$ and $N_2$ were investigated. Zeolite powders modified by cations or surfactant were compounded with LDPE to produce $20 wt\%$ masterbatch. After blending the masterbatch with LDPE, zeolite filled films were prepared by the blown film process. Finally, the composite films containing zeolite loadings of 0, 3,5, and $10 wt\%$ were produced. A gas permeability apparatus based on the variable volume principle was designed to analyze the characteristics of films. Experiments showed a general trend that gas permeabilities first decreased and then increased as the zeolite content was increased. Surfactant modified zeolite showed a better interfacial adhesion with the matrix, but the film did not show a discernible difference in gas permeability compared with the other modified films. The difference of temperature dependences in the gas permeabilities of composite films was slightly smaller than that of LDPE film.
