Utilize several kinds of reinforcement fibers to control workability and surface crack in occasion of mortar used in dilapidated concrete section repair public law. Polypropylene or poly vinyl alcohol that is hydrophilic fiber etc. is used much usually with this reinforcement fiber. Reinforcement fiber does important action that control crack that enhances coherence between material and happens at dry contraction. In this study, wished to use Sepiorite that inorganic materials and affinity such as cement are excellent nature inorganic world fiber and improve repair mortar performance. In this study, as reinforcement fiber, wished to grasp physical characteristics that uses Sepioraiteu and happens this time and grasp application possibility of concrete's repair mortar.

Poly vinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes were hydrophilized using polyethylenimine (PEI) and p-xylylene dichloride (XDC), and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly (acrylic acid -co- maleic acid) (PAM) mixed solutions by varying the concentration of PAM were coated onto PVDF membrane surface. The surface coating was verified by the observation of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the permselective characteristcs of the resulting composite membranes were tested for 90 wt% aqueous ethanol solution by the pervaporation technique. The effects of the corsslinking agent concentraion, the temperature of feed solution, and the reaction temperature on the flux and separation factors were measured. Typically, the flux, $1,480g/m^2hr$ at the reaction temperature $100^{\circ}C$, PAM 3 wt%, feed temperature $70^{\circ}C$ was obtained, on the other hand, for the separation factor, ${\alpha}_{W/E}=82$ at the conditions of the reaction temperature $100^{\circ}C$, PAM 15 wt% and feed temperature $25^{\circ}C$ was shown.

Lithium gel electrolytes based on a mixed polymer matrix consisting of poly(vinylidenefluoride-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) and cyanoresin type M (CRM) were prepared using an in situ blending process. The CRM used in this study was a copolymer of cyanoethyl pullulan and cyanoethyl poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with a mole ratio of 1:1. The mixed plasticizer was ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC) with a volume ratio of 1:1. In this study, the presence of PVDF in the electrolytes helps to form a dimensionally stable film over a broad composition range, and decreases the viscosity. In addition, it provides better rheological properties that are suitable for the extrusion of thin films. However, the presence of HFP has a positive effect on generating an amorphous domain in a crystalline PVDF structure. The ionic conductivity of the polymer electrolytes was investigated in the range 298-333 K. The introduction of CRM into the PVDF-HFP/$LiPF_6$, complex produced a PVDF-HFP/CRM/$LiPF_6$ complex with a higher ionic conductivity and improved thermal stability and dynamic mechanical properties than a simple PVDF-HFP/$LiPF_6$, complex.

The rheological properties of the solutions of atactic poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA) in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were investigated in terms of molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the polymer. The dynamic viscosity (${\eta}#$) and loss modulus (G") for the PVA/DMSO solutions with broader MWD were lower than those with narrower MWD at the similar $M_w$. It could be explained by the fact that the free volume for the solution with broader MWD at the similar $M_w$ was increased. The storage modulus(G#) of 14 wt% PVA/DMSO solutions with broader MWD was higher than that with narrower MWD at a lower frequency than 1.3 rad/sec, but lower than that with narrower MWD at a higher frequency (>1.3 rad/sec). The slopes of modified Cole-Cole plots of the 14 wt% solutions showed that as the MWD was broadened, the phase transition with frequency was more noticeable.

The operating parameters influencing on limiting flux was investigated in the ultrafiltration of PVA, and a new model, which is based on the Amiar model using the concept of heat transfer coefficient, was devised to overcome the limitation of gel-layer model. Using polysulfone plate-unit membrane (MWCO=20,000) and hollow-fiber membrane (MWCO= 30,000), ultrafiltration characteristics of PVA was examined with the variation of operating parameters such as cross flow velocity, transmembrane pressure, temperature, and PVA concentration. According to experimental results, the ultrafiltration of PVA through polysulfone membrane is mainly controlled by well-known phenomena of concentration polarization caused by gel-layer formation. On the contrary, in hollow fiber membrane was observed upward limiting flux which can not be explained by gel-layer model. New model was applied to predict the upward limiting flux behavior with partial satisfaction. The application of new model including viscosity correction factor, however, revealed that PVA ultrafiltration is closely related to the viscosity of permeating fluid.

The structure, morphology, and physical properties of syndiotatic poly(vinyl alcohol) (s-PVA) gel spun fibers were investigated to prepare polymeric embolization coils. S-PVA was prepared by saponification of the poly(vinyl acetate)/poly(vinyl pivalate)(PVAc/PVPi) copolymer. The viscosity of s-PVA solutions showed shear thinning behavior and the solution formed a homogeneous phase. Based on shear viscosity change with concentration, the optimum dope concentration was selected as 13 wt%, after which s-PVA fibers were spun and the solvent was removed. The fibers were then drawn with a maximum draw ratio of 15. A polymeric embolization coil was made of the s-PVA gel-spun fibers. The fibers were wound densely onto rigid rod and then annealed at different annealing temperatures. The polymeric embolization coil annealed at $200^{\circ}C$ was similar to metallic coils and its shape was maintained well after extension. Overall, gel-spun PVA fibers performed well for the preparation of primary and secondary coils to replace metallic coils.

Polymer blending constitutes a most useful method for the improvement or modification of the physicochemical properties of polymeric materials. So polymer blends have gained an increasing interest in both industrial and scientific fields. Some of the polymer blends exhibit unusual properties, unexpected from homopolymers. An important property of a polymer blend is the miscibility of its component, because it affects the mechanical properties, the morphology, its permeability and dogradation [1,2]. (omitted)

폴리비닐알코올(PVA)은 -OH기에 의한 강력한 분자간 및 분자내 수소결합으로 인해결정화가 잘되고 유리전이온도(T$_{g}$) 및 융점(T$_{m}$ )이 높다는 장점을 가지지만, 같은 이유로 가공성이 좋지 못하다는 문제점을 지니고 있어, 선상 고분자임에도 불구하고 용융가공이 불가능하여 거의 대부분 용액가공을 이용하고 있어 가공성에 제한을 받는다[1]. 그러나 비 결정영역 뿐 만 아니라 결정영역까지 침투할 수 있다고 알려진 요드를 가소제로 사용하면 고분자 분자들 사이의 간격을 넓히고 분자간 결합을 약화시킴으로써 T$_{g}$뿐 아니라 T$_{m}$ 도 저하시킬 가능성이 있다.

A new class of materials based on organic and inorganic species combined at a molecule level has obtained more attention recently[1]. HPA(heteropolyacid) shows unmatched applied perspective in terms of synthesis chemistry, analysis chemistry, biology, medicine and materials science[2]. As a potential photochemical material, the hybrid system of HPA and polymer has been investigated. However, the design and synthesis of heteropolyacid-based hybrids, which are at the forefront of the materials chemistry research, is still in its infancy. (omitted)

In this study, I examined hardening and non-hardening of the DFRCC (Ductile Fiber Reinforced Cementitious Composites) according to maximum size of coarse aggregate and the diameter of PVA (Poly Vinyl Alcohol) to develope PVA fiber reinforced concrete with the feature of DFRCC. As a result of this study, the fresh properties is similar regardless of maximum size of coarse aggregate. The bending stress and bending stress-displacement of DFRC showed big differences according to maximum size of coarse aggregate and diameter.
