This paper presents results of experimental investigations on natural ester regarding the breakdown strength. Aging of insulating material in a pole transformer has been studied by performing accelerated thermal aging test. Sealed aging test vessels containing copper, laminated core, Krapt paper and insulating oil(Natural oil and Mineral oil) were aged at $140^{\circ}C$ for 30days. Compared to the conventional transformer oil, electric property of the natural ester fluid is excellent.

Electrical insulation is one of the most important part in a high voltage apparatus. Recently, researchers are interested in the environmental friendly vegetable oil from environmental viewpoint. Accelerated aging transformer insulating material in vegetable oil was compared to that of mineral oil. Accelerated aging oil samples produced in the oven at $140^{\circ}C$ for 500, 1000, 1500, 2000hours. And Real transformer insulation oils samples of vegetable oil and mineral oil were aged by thermal cycles repeating from $30^{\circ}C$ to $120^{\circ}C$. Samples were analyzed at 42, 63, 93, 143, 190, 240, 300 cycles. The mineral and vegetable insulating oils were investigated for breakdown voltage, water content, total acid number, viscosity, volume resistivity, insulating paper and oil permittivity, and dissolved gas analyses. The breakdown voltage of the vegetable insulating oil is higher than that found for the mineral oil; the accelerated aging progress decreased the breakdown voltage. The vegetable oil had a higher water saturation than the mineral oil; the vegetable oil has the superior water characteristics and breakdown voltage. And high viscosity of vegetable oil, care has to be taken, especially when designing the cooling system for a large transformer.

Accelerated aging of engine exhaust system components such as catalytic converters are traditionally performed using an engine/dynamometer test stand. $SwRI^{(R)}'s\;FOCAS^{(R)}$ system reduces or eliminates many of the engine based aging limitations. This paper will describe several studies. These include: 1) replication of engine based catalyst aging cycles with added precision and dependability; 2) catalyst aging with and without lubricating oil effects; 3) effects of lubricant phosphorus on catalyst performance; and 4) the potential to thermally age components beyond the capabilities of engine based systems. The first study includes the development of the SwRI FOCAS system to run programmed aging conditions with or without lubricating oil. A description of the subsystems is given. The second two studies used the SwRI FOCAS system to age catalysts. One study compared thermal-only aging using of the SwRI FOCAS system with equivalent aging on a traditional engine/dynamometer test stand. The other study examined the effect on catalyst performance of two lubricating oils containing different levels of phosphorus, and compared the results to field data generated using the same oils in a fleet of vehicles.

Laminated rubber bearing is very popular base isolation of earthquake engineering pertaining to the passive structural vibration control technologies. Rubber used in fabricating NRB and LRB can be easily attacked by various environmental factors such as oxygen, heat, light, dynamic strain, and organic liquids. Among these factors, this study carried out thermal aging test to investigate the effect of thermal aging on the mechanical properties of laminated rubber bearings in accelerated exposure condition of $70^{\circ}C$ temperature for 168 hours. The compressive-shear test was carried out to identify the variation of compressive and shear properties of the rubber bearings before and after thermal aging. In contrast to tensile strength and elongation tests, the hardness of rubber materials showed the increasing tendency dependent on exposure temperature and period. Based on the test results, the property changes of rubber bearing mainly aged by heat are quantitatively presented.

NR composites with different curing systems were aged thermally at 60, 70, 80, and $90^{\circ}C$ for 2-185 days in a convection oven, and the changes in the crosslink density were investigated as a function of the accelerated thermal aging. The overall crosslink densities increased with increasing aging time irrespective of the aging temperatures and curing systems. The changes in crosslink density were enhanced by increasing the aging temperature. The degree of the increased crosslink density was in the following order: "the conventional cure system > the semi-EV system > the EV system". For short term thermal aging, the change in crosslink density with the aging time was complicated, particularly for low temperature aging. The activation energies of the change in crosslink density with thermal aging using the conventional and semi-EV cure systems increased and then remained relatively constant with increasing aging time, whereas that of the specimen with an EV cure system tended to increase linearly. The experimental results were explained by the dissociation of the existing polysulfidic linkages and the formation of new cross links through the crosslinking-related chemicals remaining in the sample.

Accelerated thermal aging of chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSPE) was performed for 0 days, 80.82 days, and 161.63 days at 100℃, which is equivalent to 0 y, 40 y, and 80 y of aging, respectively, at 50℃. After freshwater flooding, the volume electrical resistivity of CSPE was highest after 180 days of drying, and its insulating property recovered when dried for more than 300 days. The dielectric constant of the CSPE was not measured after seawater flooding. The dielectric constant of the accelerated thermally aged CSPE was higher after freshwater flooding than that before seawater flooding. The bright, open pores of CSPE were converted into dark, closed pores after seawater flooding, and the dark, closed pores of the accelerated thermally aged CSPE samples were partly converted into bright, open pores after freshwater flooding. The apparent density of CSPE increased slightly whereas its elongation at break (EAB) decreased until 80 y of accelerated thermal aging before seawater flooding. The peak binding energies of oxygen in the non-accelerated and accelerated thermally aged CSPE for 40 y and 80 y were shifted by more than 1.0 eV after seawater and freshwater flooding. The CH2 content in the non-accelerated and accelerated thermally aged CSPE for 40 y and 80 y after seawater flooding for 5 days was lower than that before seawater flooding whereas atoms such as Cl, O, Pb, Al, Si, Sb, and S that are related to conducting ions such as Na⁺, Cl^-, Mg²⁺, SO4 ^2-, and K⁺ were relatively increased.

In the aerospace field, Carbon/Cork composites have been used for rocket propulsion systems as a light weight structural component with a high bending stiffness and high thermal insulation properties. For the fabrication of a carbon composite with a heat insulation cork part, the bonding properties between them are very important to determine the service life of the Carbon/Cork composite structure. In this study, the changes in the interfacial adhesion and mechanical properties of Carbon/Cork composites under accelerated aging conditions were investigated. The accelerated aging experiments were performed with different temperatures and humidity conditions. The properties of the aged Carbon/Cork composites were evaluated mainly with the interfacial strength. Finally, the lifetime prediction of the Carbon/Cork composites was performed with the long-term property data under accelerated conditions.

10년 이상 보관된 니트로셀룰로오스 (Nitrocellulose, 니트로셀룰로오스) 재질의 화약용기 안전 검사를 진행하는 과정 중 화약이 보관되어진 용기에 균열이 발생한 것을 확인하여 고장 원인 분석 시험을 실시하였다. 고장이 발생한 데에 영향을 준 요인을 선별하기 위해 먼저 고장수목분석(Fault Tree Analysis, FTA)을 통해 고장 요인 및 원인에 대해 탐구하였으며, 보관 시 발생할 수 있는 내·외부적인 요인 및 환경에 대한 영향성을 확인한 결과 열에 의해 화학 반응이 가속화되어 발생한 화약용기의 물성 변화가 고장의 원인인 것으로 추정하였다. 이를 확인하기 위해 자연 노화된 화약용기를 이용하여 열충격시험, 양립성 시험 등의 환경시험을 수행하여 고장의 원인 분석을 수행하였으며, 가속노화시험을 통해 고장 재현 시험을 실시하였다. 이를 통해 앞선 고장수목분석 결과와 같이 열과 화약에 의해 화학 반응이 가속화되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 화약용기의 물성이 변화하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한, 열 노화에 의한 수명 추정을 위해 아레니우스 모델(Arrhenius Model)을 이용하여 화약용기의 사용 수명을 추정하였다.

600V용 비닐절연전선의 절연체로 사용되는 PVC의 열적 열화 특성을 열중량분석과 가속열화시험을 이용하여 연구하였다. TGA를 이용한 활성화에너지는 Kissinger method와 Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method를 이용하여 측정하였다. 활성화에너지를 계산한 결과 600V용 PVC 절연전선은 89.29 kJ/mol～111.39 kJ/mol, 내열 PVC절연전선은 97.80 kJ/mol～119.25 kJ/mol로 나타났다. 또한, 저온인 80, 90, 10$0^{\circ}C$에서 장기가속열화를 통한 활성화에너지를 아레니우스 방정식을 이용하여 계산하였다. 그 결과 PVC 절연전선은 92.16 kJ/mol,내열 PVC절연전선은 97.52kJ/mol로 나타났다. 연구결과에 있어 600V내열 PVC절연 전선이 PVC 절연전선에 비해 활성화에너지가 큼을 알 수 있었으며, 사용 수명을 예측함에 있어서도 장기적으로 안정함을 예측할 수 있다.
