PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the mechanical characteristics of castor oil based bio-polymer concrete for use of ultra thin overlays. METHODS : To evaluate the mechanical properties of bio-polymer concrete, the various laboratory tests including compressive, tensile, and flexural strength, and elongation tests were conducted on bio-polymer concrete specimens in this study. The mechanical characteristics of bio-polymer concretes were examined by changing the content of hardener and polymer binder to determine the optimum content for ultra-thin overlays. The bio-polymer concrete developed in this study was used for field trial test of the ultra-thin bridge deck pavement for verifying the workability and monitoring the long-term performance of materials. RESULTS : Test results showed that tensile and the flexural strength of bio-polymer concretes increase and the elongation of bio-polymer concrete decreases with increase of binder content. A field adhesive strength tests conducted on bridge deck pavement indicates the bio-polymer concrete has more than 2MPa of adhesive strength satisfy with the design criteria. CONCLUSIONS : The bio-polymer concrete with more than 20% content of castor oil was developed for ultra-thin overlays in this study. It is found from this study that the 35% of hardener content is most appropriate for maintaining the strength characteristics and flexibility.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the environmental resistance of bio-polymer concrete for use of pavement materials developed for reducing the carbon-dioxide. METHODS : The compression, tension, and bending strength tests were conducted on the bio-polymer concrete specimens with and without environmental conditioning. The specimens were conditioned using the freezing-thaw and accelerated weathering process for long period of time. To assess the resistance against chloride, the chloride ion penetration resistance tests were carried out on the bio-polymer concrete specimens. RESULTS : Test results show that the maximum difference in strength between specimens with and without conditioning is about 2.6MPa indicating that the effect of environmental conditioning on specimen strength is negligible. Based on the chloride ion penetration resistance test, the penetration quantity of electric charge of the specimens is zero and there is no ion penetration within the bio-polymer concrete. CONCLUSIONS : It is found from this study that there is slight change in strength of bio-polymer concretes before and after environmental conditioning process and no chloride ion penetration observed in these specimens. Therefore, the developed bio-polymer concretes can be applied effectively as pavement materials due to the small change of physical properties with environment change.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트 교면포장 재료로서 사용되는 라텍스의 단점인 경제성을 보완하고 자원재활용을 위해 괭생이모자반 기반의 자원순환형 폴리머 혼입에 따른 내구성능을 분석하였다. 본 연구 범위의 모든 배합조건에서 슬럼프 및 공기량은 품질기준은 만족하는 것으로 나타났으나, 분말 형태의 자원순환형 바이오 폴리머 적용시 슬럼프가 일부 저하되는 경향을 나타내었다. 압축강도 시험결과, 라텍스 혼입시 강도가 감소되었지만 바이오 폴리머 대체시 혼입율에 따라 6.3~24.4%의 강도 개선효과를 나타내었다. 내구성능 시험결과, 합성 폴리머 혼입시 가장 우수한 내구성능을 나타내었고, 바이오 폴리머 혼입시에는 혼입율이 증가할수록 내구성능이 우수한 경향을 나타내었지만 라텍스보다는 미소하게 낮은 것으로 확인되었다.

Natural fiber/phenolic biocomposites with chopped henequen fibers treated at various levels of electron beam irradiation (EBI) were made by means of a matched-die compression molding method. The interfacial property was explored in terms of interfacial shear strength measured by a single fiber microbonding test. The thermal properties were studied in terms of storage modulus, tan ${\delta}$, thermal expansion and thermal stability measured by dynamic mechanical analysis, thermomechanical analysis and thermogravimetric analysis, respectively. The result showed that the interfacial and thermal properties depend on the treatment level of EBI done to the henequen fiber surfaces. The present result also demonstrates that 10 kGy EBI is most preferable to physically modify the henequen fiber surfaces and then to improve the interfacial property of the biocomposite, supporting earlier results studied with henequen/poly (butylene succinate) and henequen/unsaturated polyester biocomposites.

Significant progress has been realized in the design and synthesis of light emitting polymers with emission over the whole range of the visible spectrum. However up to seventy-five percent of charge recombination events can lead to triplet states that decay non-radiatively. Following the pioneering work in the field of small molecule organic light emitting devices it has been found that solution processible iridium polymer complexes can be used to harness the wasted triplet energy. In this paper new results concerning electrophosphorescence of solution processible tethered iridium polymer derivatives will be presented. Furthermore our approaches to the design of new high triplet energy conjugated polymer hosts will be reported.

최근 남해안과 제주도 연안에는 5,000톤 이상의 괭생이 모자반이 유입되어 양식장과 조업에 큰 피해를 주고 있으며, 환경훼손 등 사회적 문제로 부각되고 있다. 괭생이 모자반에 존재하는 알긴산은 주로 의약품, 식품 등으로 활용되는 천연 고분자 물질이다. 하지만, 대량으로 활용할 수 있는 수요처가 확보되지 않아 본 연구에서는 괭생이 모자반을 활용한 바이오 폴리머를 구조물 보수용 폴리머 모르타르에 활용하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 응결특성 평가 시험에서는 바이오 폴리머가 12% 혼입된 L0BP12 배합은 합성폴리머만 혼입된 L12BP0 배합보다 종결시간이 최대 20%증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 흡수율 시험에서는 LOBP12 배합이 초속경 시멘트 배합인 Plain-URHC보다 0.36% 감소하는 것으로 나타나 바이오 폴리머 혼입으로 모르타르의 수밀성이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 압축 및 휨강도 시험에서는 바이오 폴리머의 혼입이 증가할수록 강도가 감소하는 경향을 나타내었고, KS F 4042 기준을 만족하는 최대 바이오 폴리머의 혼입률은 12%로 결정되었다. 또한, 재령 4시간 기준 부착강도는 Plain-URHC시험체 보다 모두 향상되었으며, 1 MPa 이상을 확보하여 바이오 폴리머의 혼입이 모르타르의 부착강도를 향상 시킬 수 있는 것을 확인하였다.
