Epoxy adhesive was mainly used to combine different composite materials. Epoxy adhesive was a typical thermosetting resin that can be bonded by changing from a linear structure to a three-dimensional network structure by curing reaction of epoxy and hardener. The curing conditions of epoxy adhesive were different with different types of hardener such as mixing ratio, curing time, and temperature. These curing conditions affected to the adhesive property of epoxy adhesive. In industry, it was difficult to proceed the applying epoxy adhesive and combining two parts immediately. The adhesive property decreased by humidity and pre-curing of epoxy adhesive in waiting time between two processes. In this paper, the glass fiber reinforced composite (GFRC) was combined with epoxy adhesive and adhesion property between epoxy adhesive and GFRCs was evaluated using single lap shear test. The different waiting times and humidity conditions were applied to epoxy adhesive in room temperature and adhesive property decreased as the waiting time increased. In small amount of humidity, the adhesive property increased because a small amount of moisture in the surroundings accelerated the curing reaction. In certain amount of humidity, however, the adhesion property decreased.

We examined the quality characteristics of obtaining the optimal curing conditions for black garlic extract (BGE) added mackerel by using response surface methodology (RSM). The condition of RSM was included in 13 experimental points using two dependent variables: concentration of BGE (2.6~12.5 brix, X1) and curing time of BGE (17.58~102.42 min, X2). An assessment was conducted with four replicates on three independent variables: volatile basic amine (VBN, Y1), thiobarbituric acid (TBA, Y2), and shear force (Y3). The minimum content of VBN was 1.625 mg% at 3.17 brix, for 80.5 min. This was obtained when the BGE concentration was lower and the curing time was longer. The content of the TBA was 3.13~12.24 MA mg/kg at experiment range and the stationary point was at saddle point. Therefore, by using ridge analysis, the minimum point of TBA was 2.414 MA mg/kg at 3.5 brix for 84.4 min. The truth coefficient of the BGE concentration and curing time were 2.9 brix and 75.1 min, respectively, with a shear force ($120.764cm/kg^2$) shown at maximum point. The optimum Hunter color range was estimated from the lowest TBA value. The optimum range of the L color was 39.16~40.26, a and b color were 4.40~4.88 and 12.35~13.20, respectively.

Statement of problem : Removable partial denture and complete denture often require denture base relines to improve the fittness against tissue-bearing mucosa because of the gradual change in edentulous ridge contour and resorption of underlyng bony structure. Self-curing hard reline resins offers the immediate and relatively inexpensive means to be recondition the surface of denture base directly However weak bond between denture base resin and reline material can harbor bacteria, promote staining, or result in complete separation of the two materials. Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of denture cleansers on bond strength and surface hardness of reline resin to denture base resin Denture base resin beams($60.0{\times}15.0{\times}3.0mm$) were made with Lucitone 199. Material and methods : 10mm section was removed from the center of each specimen. The samples were replaced in the molds and the space of l0mm sections were packed with Tokuso Rebase reline material. The specimens were immersed in denture cleansers (Polident, Cleadent) and were evaluated after 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks. The bond strength and surface hardness of self-curing hard reline materials to heat-curing denture base resin were measured using an UTM (universal testing machine). Results and conclusion : 1) There was no significant difference of usage, kind, and denture cleaner by application time on the bonding strength of self-curing hard reline resin to denture base resin. 2) There was no significant difference of usage, kind, and denture cleaner by application time on the surface hardness, but the surface hardness showed decreasing tendency, as the time of immersion was extended. 3) The failure modes of the specimens was initially adhesive failure and finally cohesive failure of self-curing hard reline resin.

We have studied the effect of temperature and exposure time on the UV curing rate of Urethane Acrylate. UV dose has been modulated by changing the electric power, and temperature has been controled by coating rate and water temperature of the coating roll. Curing rate was evaluated by measuring gel fraction of the cured film. It has been found that effect of coating velocity on the gel fraction of the final film is predominant, but role of temperature of the UV chamber is negligible. These observations imply that exposure time of UV light is critical to have a fully cured film. To better understand the effect of design and operating condition of UV coater on the behavior of UV curing of Urethane Acrylate, we have also conducted heat-flux analysis of UV chamber.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of wattage and curing time on surface hard-ness, three-point bending strength and internal porosity of microwave curing denture base resin. Two sizes of resin specimens were made of Acron $MC^{(R)}\;;\;3.5{\times}10{\times}60mm$ for surface hardness and three-point bending strength measurement and $5{\times}12{\times}60mm$ for internal porosity measurement. They were cured by microwave energy at varing wattages(500W, 700W) and curing times(2min., 3min., 4min.) to determine if a certain wattage/curing time combination would improve physical properties. Surface hardness was measured with Vikers hardness tester, three-point bend-ing strength with universal testing machine and internal porosity was calculated by measuring the weight in air and in water. The results obtained were as follows: 1. There was no significant difference in percent porosity among experimental groups(p>0.05). 2. 500W/3min. group showed the higher surface hardness than 700W/2, 3, 4min. groups(p<0.05), and 700W/4 min. group showed the lower surface hardness than 500W/2, 3, 4min. groups(p<0.05), but there was no significant difference among others(p>0.05). 3. 500W/3min. group yielded the higher value of bending strength than 500W/2min., 700W/3, 4min. groups(p<0.05), but there was no significant difference among others(p>0.05).

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of environmental conditions of air temperature and relative humidity, varieties, and water content of leaves at harvesting time on the occurrence of barn rot during curing of burley tobacco. The curing environmental condition was combined with 4 air temperatures ranging from 25$^{\circ}C$ to 40$^{\circ}C$ and 3 different relative humidities. The harvested leaves with 3 different water contents were cured during the rainy season in curing barn. Barn rot occurred the most at 30$^{\circ}C$, and reduced at 25$^{\circ}C$ and remarkably decreased at above 35$^{\circ}C$. But no barn rot was observed at 40$^{\circ}C$. In influence of relative humidity, the percentage of rotten leaves was highest at 100% RH and remarkably reduced at lower RH. Among two varieties, KB 101 was rotted smaller than Burley 21 under the all temperature and relative humidity conditions, however those considerably showed no difference. The rate of disease development increased in the lower leaves more than in the upper leaves. In the water content of leaves at harvesting time, 29.5% of the rotten leaves was observed at W.S.D. (water saturation deficit) 10.3%, but no barn rot was found at W.S.D. 6.4%.

Currently, Fiber-Reinforced Plastic (FRP) composite materials are used in many industrial fields, owing to their superior stiffness and specific strength compared to metals. However, there are issues with FRP inefficiency, due to low productivity of such materials, environmental problems they pose and long curing times needed. Trying to address these issues, research was conducted towards the development of a FRP composite material with excellent properties and short production time, introducing a curing method using a UV lamp. Four types of composite materials were prepared, cured with catalyst or UV (CZ: Catalyst + ZNT 6345, CR: Catalyst + RF 1001 MV, UVZ: Photoinitiator + ZNT 6345, and UVR: Photoinitiator + RF 1001 MV). Examination of the chemical and mechanical properties of these composites showed that UV-cured materials performed better than the catalyst-cured ones. These results indicate that the production process of FRP composite materials can be simplified by using a UV lamp for curing, resulting in composite materials with the same quality, but reduced production time by about 70% compared to currently used practices. This advancement will contribute greatly to the composite material industry.

Many problems exist in the current cast in place concrete lining used in domestic tunnel construction. Especially, the crack of tunnel lining brings about a social and economic problem. It has a lot of influence on stability of structure and the fine finish of lining. So enormous repair-work and reinforcement of tunnel lining could occur an running out of government's budget. In our country, there are domestic production enterprises which produce a special pre-cast concrete product, but the technical level of them is still far behind compared to developed countries. Also, optimum steam coring method is important for the production of high quality product. But there is no regulation of steam curing method in our country. This study is to investigate the properties of PC panel according to the variation of steam curing conditions such as presteaming time and rate of temperature rise. The result shows that the optimum presteaming time of steam curing method in PC panel is more than 1 hour and the desirable rate of temperature in curing chamber is about $20^{\circ}C/hr$.

In order to reduce the manufacturing costs of the glass lens, it is necessary to manufacture a lens using a UV curable resin or a thermosetting resin, which is a curable material, in order to replace a glass lens. In the case of forming a lens using a thermosetting material, it is necessary to form several lenses at once using the wafer-level lens manufacturing technologies due to the long curing time of the material. When a lens is manufactured using a curable material, an error in the shape of the lens due to the shrinkage of the material during the curing process is an important cause of defects. The major factors for these shape errors and deformations are the shrinkage and the change of mechanical properties in the process of changing from a liquid material during curing to a solid state after complete curing. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the curing process of the material and to examine the shrinkage rate and change of physical properties according to the degree cure. In addition, it is necessary to proceed with CAE for lens molding using these and to review problems in lens manufacturing in advance. In this study, the viscoelastic properties of the material were measured during the curing process using a rheometer. Using the results, Rheological investigation of cure kinetics was performed. At the same time, The shrinkage of the material was measured and simple mathematical models were created. And using the results, the molding process of a single lens was analyzed using Comsol, a commercial S/W. In addition, the experiment was conducted to compare and verify the CAE results. As a result, it was confirmed that the shrinkage rate of the material had a great influence on the shape precision of the final product.
