The CRT(Cathode-ray Tube) of salvage is a process of separating the panel and funnel to recycle a cathode-ray tube. In this paper, the thermal properties of glass for CRT were studied to improve its recycling ratio. In the salvage process, several patterns of breakage, as called 'comer pull', were easily generated on the sealing surface of panel or funnel glass due to the residual tensile stress, which had correlations with some parameters of the manufacturing process of CRT and the initial material properties of glass. Finite element analyses and experimental approaches on the flit sealing process were carried out to obtain the major characteristic of glass related to the residual stress. From this study, it was identified that the thermal expansion coefficient of glass had much influence on the residual stress of panel glass after frit sealing process. Therefore, the optimal conditions of thermal properties for CRT glass were proposed to achieve an effective salvage process. By using these optimal conditions, the size of comer pull on the panel and funnel glass was reduced to 10% level compared with the original size, and the recycling ratio of CRT was increased in the salvage process.

Casing leak tests using three kinds of static seals are performed by simulating test section for a 75 ton thrust class turbopump under ambient and cryogenic temperature environment. As results of application of Conical, PTFE, and C static seals to leak tests, even though they all work in normal temperature condition, only the PTFE and C static seals show good sealing performance in cryogenic condition. However, the Conical static seal fails because of the different thermal expansion rates due to the use of different materials in a LOX pump. It is found that unlike the PTFE and C static seals with sealing surfaces in axial direction, the sealing surface of the Conical static seal is in radial direction that may cause leak when the casings thermally shrink in radial direction. Especially, the C static seal reveals excellent sealing performance even for a used seal.

In this study, a ruture strength of epoxy resin film coated on the leaking spot in waterpipe line was determined, using water pressure, without interrupting water supply. This results could be used for the sealing of water leakage in large size waterpipe lines. An experimental equation {{{{P=Kt^m~ /R^n~ (m=2, n=3.5) }} was also obtained, where P is the rupture pressure, K is constant, t is the thickness and R is the radius of the resin film. From this results, the safe쇼 thickness of the film for a domestic use was calculated with various radii against the maximum pressure.

알루미늄 양극산화 피막의 내마모성 향상 및 염료 침지의 봉인을 위해 다양한 봉공처리법이 개발되고 상용되어왔다. 현재, 주로 사용되는 방법들은 에너지 소비량이 많고, 유독성의 용액을 사용해야하며 봉공처리의 품질 자체가 좋지 못하다는 단점이 있다. 이에 저에너지 소비 및 친환경적이고 무독성의 용액을 사용하는 봉공처리를 고안하고자 한다.

This paper provides the effects on the leakage characteristics of the surface roughness of a valve stem in LPG automotive. The valve stem seal is to stop an oil leakage through a sealing gap between a valve stem and a valve stem seal. The sealing performance of two components is related to a leak safety and a long life of a valve stem and a valve stem seal. The experimental results show that the optimal surface roughness of a valve stem is to recommend as $0.4{\sim}0.5{\mu}m$ in a centerline average roughness, Ra and a uniformly distributed profile of the roughness. Basically the smooth surface and uniform profiles of the roughness may reduce an oil leakage between a valve stem and a valve stem seal.

Encapsulation is required since organic materials used in OLED devices are fragile to water vapor and oxygen. Laser sealing method is currently used where IR laser is scanned along the glass-frit coated lines. Laser method is, however, not suitable to encapsulating large-sized glass substrate due to the nature of sequential scanning. In this work we propose a new method of encapsulation using Joule heating. Conductive layer is patterned along the sealing lines on which the glass frit is screen printed and sintered. Electric field is then applied to the conductive layer resulting in bonding both the panel glass and the encapsulation glass by melting glass-frit. In order to obtain uniform bonding the temperature of a conductive layer having a shape of closed loop should be uniform. In this work we conducted simulation for heat distribution according to the structure of a conductive layer used as a Joule-heat source. Uniform temperature was obtained with an error of 5% by optimizing the structure of a conductive layer. Based on the results of thermal simulations we concluded that Joule-heating induced encapsulation would be a good candidate for encapsulation method especially for large area glass substrate.

Due to the various reason, sealing of pit & fissure might be imperfect. One of these reason can be the fracture of sealant material because of the low hardness value of sealing material. The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the microhardness of two different curing type pit and fissure sealants: Dual-cure and Light-cure. The result from the present study can be summarized as follows: 1. All pit and fissure sealants that used in this study showed statistically significant difference in their microhardness of upper and lower surface. (P <0.05) 2. Except of lower surface of teethmate, microhardness of 40-second curing sealant was statistically higher than that of 20-second curing sealant. (P <0.05) 3. In comparison of sealants, microhardness of dual-cure sealant was statistically higher than that of light-cure sealant. Above results suggest that the use of dual-cure sealant and longer curing time are recommended.

In this study, the control of the free surface deformation of a magnetic fluid for the change in electromagnetic force is discussed. The free surface of magnetic fluid is formed by the balance of surface force, gravity, pressure difference, magnetic normal pressure and magnetic body force. Magnetic fluid in characteristics of fluid adjusted to the opposite direction of the gravity direction. Thus, the device of a magnetic fluid proposed the complete zero-leakage sealing, oscillator for surface control, boundary layer control, MHD, flow control, flow using magnetic levitation system and surface actuator. This study show the deformation of surface rise due to the intensity of the magnetic field and possibility of two-dimensional control of magnetic fluid through the feedback data of hall sensor.

The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) has attracted great deal of attention due to its high electrical efficiency, high waste-heat utilization, fuel flexibility, and application versatility. However, SOFC technology is still not matured enough to fulfill the practical requirements for commercialization. Therefore, all the research and development activities are mainly focused on a development of practically viable SOFCs with higher performance and better reliability. We were successful in fabricating high-performance anode-supported unit cells by employing hierarchically controlled multi-layered electrodes for both structural reliability and high performance. In addition, a novel composite sealing gasket made it possible to achieve excellent sealing integrity even with considerable surface irregularities in a multi-cell planar arrayed stack.

In order to use PUR/CuO Composites as the sealing materials for ships equipment, this research has been performed. PUR/CuO composites are produced by using ultrasonic waves. The increase of CuO leads to increase in the tensile strength and shore hardness. The cumulative wear volume shows a tendency to increase in proportional to sliding distance. As the CuO particles of these composites indicated, the friction coefficient was slightly increased. The major failure mechanisms were lapping layers, deformation of matrix, plowing, debonding of particles and microcracking by scanning electric microscopy photograph of the wear tested surface.
