This paper describes the electrical characteristics of the polymer lightning arresters(L.As) used to protect distribution lines and power facilities from surge. For the relative comparison, the characteristics assessment was done for 2 states of L.As before and after water immersion treatment. The L.As for the comparative test were immersed with water of $95[^{\circ}C]$ considered a severe condition. After the immersion treatment, the assessment was carried out for material analyses in chemical structure(FTIR : fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer). Electrical performance measured insulation resistance measurement, leakage current measurement, critical operation voltage measurement etc.. In addition to, the results were compared with those for the L.As deteriorated in the field. Thus, the accelerative deterioration degree of polymer materials by immersion treatment was evaluated, by which the structural defects of the polymer L.As could be inferred.

The demand for flexible devices including solar cells, memories and batteries has increased rapidly over the past decades. In most flexible devices, polymer-based materials are used to enable the mechanical deformations such as bending or folding. Shape Memory Polymers (SMPs) is a high molecular compound polymer with flexibility and shape recovery characteristics. In this work, flexible shape memory device was fabricated by simply coating the conducting material, carbon nano-tube (CNT), on a shape memory polymer. Furthermore, durability of the device under various type of mechanical deformations was assessed. It is believed that the result of this work will aid in realization of a stretchable and wearable electronic device for practical applications.

A conjugated polymer is the next-generation emerging semiconductor material that can be applied in various fields, from organic electronics to biomedical applications. However, its low solubility in an aqueous medium has made the use of toxic organic solvents inevitable, thereby leading to formulation of conjugated polymers in the form of waterborne nanoparticles. This review paper discusses two principles of nanoparticle formation and representative methods for synthesizing conjugated polymer nanoparticles.

The organic insulation material has excellent thermal insulation property, but it is difficult to expect fire stability, and semi inorganic insulation only delays combustible hour but it is difficult to expect fire stability. In this study, thermal insulation property of cement-based non-combustible inorganic insulation using cement and non combustible materials and redispersible polymer powder was studied. As a result of the experiment, the thermal insulation property decreased as the use of redispersible polymer powder increased, but the heat insulation property improved when using the appropriate amount.

Polymer modified cement mortar (PCM) is commonly used as a repair material. However, in high-temperature environments such as fire, it is more likely to explode than cement mortar. The polymer is thermally decomposed at a high temperature to form a gas, and the gas remaining inside the structure increases the internal pressure to generate a burst. When an spalling occurs, the coating is peeled off and dropped, and high temperature is transmitted to the inside of the structure. In severe cases, even the reinforcing bar is exposed, which can lead to the collapse of the structural member due to severe loss of strength. In this study, in order to reduce spalling of PCM, a fiber mixing method was selected from the refractory method to find an appropriate blending ratio of fibers and polymers.

In this study, the electrical properties of polymer thin film layered by spin-coating method was investigated, and this polymer is one of the polymer applied to insulation layer for display, this polymer has relatively high dielectric constant, hygroscopic property and easy to make thin film by spin-coating. That is, in this study use the polymer that is cyano acrylate terpolymer, and the MIM(Metal/Insulator/Metal) structures were fabricated to measure the electrical properties such as Voltage-Current characteristics and dielectric characteristics. Also the conductivity and dielectric constant has been calculated. As a result, the conductivity in room temperature was $0.85{\times}10^{-14}{\sim}1.35{\times}10^{-14}$[S/cm]. The fact that this polymer be acted as insulator can be supported by this result. The dielectric constant was calculated as $10.39{\sim}12.05$ higher than Dopont Inc., this make it possible to accumulate more charges in insulation layer under same condition.

The transition metal salt doped solid polymer electrolyte [TSPE] were prepared with HPMC as a host polymer. The virgin and doped films were prepared by solution-casting method and investigated using wide angle X-ray scattering method. Micro structural parameters like lattice strain (g%), stacking/twin faults, the average number of unit cells counted in a direction perpendicular to the Bragg's plane (hkl) spacing of (hkl) planes dhkl, crystallite size Ds, distortion width, standard deviation were determined by whole pattern powder fitting (WPPF) method, which is an extension of single order method. It is found that the crystallite size decreases with the increase in the content of $FeCl_3$. This decrease is due to increase in localized breaking of polymer network which also accounts for the amorphous nature of the material. The filler inorganic salt $FeCl_3$ acts as plasticizer. FTIR study also confirms and justifies the interaction between the polymer and in-organic salt in the matrix. Physical properties like mechanical stability and Ac conductivity in these films are in conformity with the X-ray results.

We demonstrated an effective way of preparing melt spinnable mesophase pitches via catalytic hydrogenation of petroleum residue (fluidized catalytic cracking-decant oil) and their subsequent thermal soaking. The mesophase pitches thus obtained were analyzed in terms of their viscosity, elemental composition, solubility, molecular weight, softening point and optical texture. We found that zeolite-induced catalytic hydrogenation under high hydrogen pressure contributed to a large variation in the properties of the pitches. As the hydrogen pressure increased, the C/H ratio decreased, and the solubility in n-hexane increased. The mesophase pitch with entirely anisotropic domains of flow texture exhibited good meltspinnability. The mesophase carbon fibers obtained from the catalytically hydrogenated petroleum residue showed moderate mechanical properties.

The (0.8PPV+0.2DMPPV) copolymer and silica/borosilicate composites were synthesized by sol-gel process. The organic-inorganic hybrid solution was prepared by using of (0.8PPV+0.2DMPPV) copolymer precursor solution as a raw material for organic components and TEOS and TMB for glass components. Then by drying the solution in vacuum at 5$0^{\circ}C$ for 7days and subsequent heat treatment in vacuum at 15$0^{\circ}C$~30$0^{\circ}C$ for 2h~72h with heating rate of 0.2$^{\circ}C$/min and 1.8$^{\circ}C$/min, the organic-inorganic composites were synthesized. Microstructural evolution of the composites was characterized by DSC, IR spectrocopy, UV/VIS spectroscopy, and TEM. Elimination of the polymer precursor and degradation of the polymer were observed by DSC and Si-O and trans C=C absorption peaks were identified by IR spectra. The polymer was found to be successfully incorporated into the glass matrix and it was confirmed by the absorption peaks from the polymer in the UV/VIS spectra and the TEM results. The absorption peak of the composites was found to shift toward short wavelength side compared to that of the pure polymer and the amount of the blue shift increased with increasing the heat treatment temperature and heat treatment time and with decreasing the heating rate.

In this paper, AUTODYN blasting simulation of single blast hole were conducted to evaluate the blasting effects of Polymer Gel. The coupling mediums used as the filling material around an explosive charge were air and gelatin. each simulation case was D I(decoupling index) 1.0, 1.25, 1.56 with air or polymer gel coupling materials. In order to evaluate blast effects full charge model was used as a reference for evaluation of blasting effects. The results of numerical analysis showed that fragmentation of a limestone model of were much more fractured by polymer gel medium than by air medium. As expected, the transmitted peak pressure was higher polymer gel coupled model than in air medium.
