This study is to investigate for the frost resistance of high-strength concrete using finely ground granulated blast-furnace slag with experimental parameters, such as water/binder ratio, replacement proportion of granulated blast-furnace slag, air content and methods of curing. The high-strength concrete using granulated blast-furnace slag is effective to resist frost and decrease scaling. The more increasable replacement proportion of granulated blast-furnace slag is, the better the effect is. The high-strength concrete using granulated blast-furnace slag needs hydrating adequately to prevent deterioration by drying in the early curing period. The micro structure of high-strength concrete, increased to the pore number with diameter of 0.03~0.1mm, is changed by using granulated blast-furnace slag, but is presented differently according to water/binder ration and replacement proportion of granulated blast-furnace slag.

The purpose of this paper is to propose an experimental method to evaluate the resistance of abrasion about 24 MPa, 27 MPa, and 30 MPa compressive strength. These strength are used in the design and construction of concrete hydraulic structures in Korea. The mixing ratios of the ready mixed concrete strengths were investigated countrywide and set the representative mixture proportion ratios of the nine mixed types of OPC, FA and BFS. After making and curing the test specimens, the underwater abrasion test was performed. ASTM C 1138 International Standard was used to fabricate the test equipment, and the surface abrasion resistance of the specimen was tested using the test equipment. In the case of OPC, the 30% abrasion resistance improvement effect was observed at 72 hours as the water-binder ratio decreased. That was reason the coated cement bond strength of the specimen was strong. In the case of BFS and FA, it was improved by 9.9% and 3.8%, respectively, at 72 hours as the water-binder ratio decreased. It was due to the characteristics of the latent hydraulic and pozzolanic reactions. Generally, the relative abrasion resistance of concrete can be evaluated at 24 hours. However, in case of low strength (under 24 MPa), the surface mortar layer wears much faster at the first 12 hours, so it can be considered to evaluate the relative abrasion loss rate at this point.

Ceramic membranes are generally used for various industrial processes operating under extreme conditions because of its high thermal and chemical stability. However, due to the trade-off phenomenon of permeability and mechanical strength, preparation of high permeability-high strength membrane is necessary. In this study, the change in characteristics and performances of ceramic membranes was analyzed depending on the type of polymer binder and its mixing ratio. Because the solubility between solvent and polymer binder was higher in PSf (polysulfone) than in PES (polyethersulfone), the viscosity and discharge pressure of the PSf-based dope solution were higher than those of PES-based dope solution. When PSf was used as a polymer binder, ceramic membrane showed high mechanical strength and low water permeability due to the dense structure. On the other hand, in case of PES, the mechanical strength was slightly reduced and the water permeability was increased. It was confirmed that the optimum mixing ratio of the PSf and PES with high water permeability and mechanical strength was 9:1.

In this study, we examined the relationship among the rheological properties, workability, and extrudability in the construction of concrete structures using additive manufacturing. We altered the component materials (binder type, water-binder (W/B) ratio, sand ratio) to assess their effect on the rheological properties experimentally. The results indicated that the W/B and sand ratios had the largest effect on the rheological properties. In particular, when the sand ratio increased, it indicated that adjusting the sand ratio would facilitate control over the rheological properties. Additionally, we compared the rheological properties with the results of a traditional workability evaluation, namely the table flow test. This indicated the possibility of inferring the rheological properties by using traditional methods. Finally, we evaluated extrusion quantity according to table flow. The extrusion rate was 350 g/s for a flow of 210 mm and 170 g/s for a flow of 130 mm, indicating that extrusion rate increased as flow increased; however, we concluded that a flow standard of approximately 140-160 mm is suitable for controlling the actual extrusion quantity and rate.

Surface mount technology is the biggest theme in the area of deιIronic component. To miniatunze an electronic component, s such as ferrite chip inductor, the cer뼈lic wet process for green-sheet lamination and/or screen printing method through a s solvent medium system is widely used. The preparation and characterization of NiCuZn Ferrite (NCZF) shurry and the green s sheet using the water mixed binder system has been studied. The 21 vol% of NCZF slurry was prepared by a ball milling. The p polyacrylic vinyl copolymer (Mw; 60,000) was used as a binder. Th$\xi$ mixture of distilled water, isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and 2l butoxy ethanol was used as a dispersion medium. The water content of medium varied from about 40% to 80%. As the results. Thc disp$\xi$rston stability of the NCZF slurry was attributed to the free polymer rather than the electrostatic force of the particle. T The viscosity of the NCZF slurry was greatly depended on the ratio of water content in the medium.

This study is to discuss the effect of the liquid type high early strength agent considering early strength, developing strength, and economics of the concrete using admixtures. The powder type high early strength agent does not helpful because the field application is not available such as the problem of mixing process and rack of economics. To make up these subjects, the plain mixture contains the standard type AE water reducing agent, and the types of the agents are the standard type AE water reducing agent(P),liquid type high early strength agent(AD),poly carboxylate high early strength type AE water reducing agent(E1), and naphthalene + melamine high early strength type AE water reducing agent(E2). As the Contents of the agents, E1 and E2 is two types each cases, and P is one type to satisfy the target fluidity and air content, AD is three types as 0.5, 1.0,and 1.5%. In the case that AD is mixed, the fluidity is decreased, but air content is increased. For increasing strength of the early age, using OPC is more effective than FA and BS for increasing the early strength of the concrete, and if the air content is secure as plain, the effect of the developing strength can be increased because the air content is increased about 2% in the case that AD is used.

Strength and some durability properties of concrete containing rice husk ash (RHA) predominantly composed of amorphous silica at a specific surface of 235 $m^2/kg$ produced using a charcoal incinerator were determined. The maximum ordinary Portland cement (OPC) replacement with the RHA increased with increase in water/binder (w/b) ratio of the concrete mixes. The results show that 15 % OPC could be substituted by the RHAwithout strength loss at w/b ratio of 0.50. The split tensile strength generally increased with increase in RHA content for the mixes.

Recently, the demand of ultra high-rise building is on the increase in korea due to the rapidly changing movement in economic growth and the expansion of national infrastructure. At the same time, the tendency toward the amount used of concrete has greatly increased every year. In addition, as the seriousness of quantity demanded of aggregate is gathering strength, the active areas of research proceeds to do actively in every place in order to review the usability of crushed sand as a part of the countermeasures. And, it needs to establish the quality standard and service guide, etc. for the practical use. Accordingly, this study was to establish the ratio of water-binder materials as three levels like 23.5, 27.5, and 31.5%, and the replacement ratio as three levels like 0, 50, and 100% in order to define the engineering properties of ultra high-strength concrete using the crushed sand. This study was to examine it after establishing the combined condition by the substitute of the fine aggregate percentage and admixture. From the result of this research above, it may be summed up as follows. 1) The more the replacement ratio of crushed sand and the ratio of water-binder materials increased, the mon the fluidity decreased due to the decrease of irregular grain shape of sand and unit combined discretion. 2) This study found out that 100% of replacement ratio of crushed sand was almost similar level to the compressive strength of concrete using the natural sand.

The purpose of this study is to investigate experimentally the effect of polyethylene fibers with different tensile strength and aspect ratio on the properties of cementless composite. Three types of mixtures according to the types of polyethylene fibers and water-to-binder ratio were prepared and density, compressive strength and tension tests were performed. Test results showed that the mixture reinforced by polyethylene fiber with a low tensile strength by 10 % and a high aspect ratio by 8.3 % had a high tensile strain capacity by 11.7 %, a high toughness by 12.4 %, and a low crack width by 9.1 %. It was also observed that high tensile strain capacity and better cracking pattern could be achieved by increasing the water-to-binder ratio of composite although its strength is low.
