Individual solar cells must be connected together to give the appropriate current and voltage levels and they must also be protected from damage by the environment. [1] PV module consists of a glass/ polymer encapsulation/ solar cell string/ polymer encapsulation/ back sheet. Usually, encapsulation materials is used EVA(ethylene vinyl acetate), PVB(polyvinyl butyral), PO(polyolefin)sheet. This study is about fabrication of module using silicone material instead of above them. We got to know advantage that is fabrication time and efficiency of modules.

Cyclic deformations of polymer foam film are simulated using the finite element method. Material of polymer foam film is polypropylene (PP). The calculated polymer foam film is micro-scale thin film has cellular structure. The polymer foam film is used in ferro-electret applications. The polymer foam film is idealized to one cell structure as lens shaped stretched truncated octahedron model. Cyclic deformation is performed by uniaxial stretching. Stretching direction is perpendicular to plane of cellular film. Various cyclic strain amplitudes, pore wall thicknesses, pore shape are investigated to find deformation tendency of cellular structure. Consequently, cellular structure has various macroscopic stresses on cyclic deformation with various pore thickness and pore shape.

At present, reinforced concrete pipe has been widely used as drain pipe. However, many reinforced concrete pipe is exposed at deteriorated environment by the growth of a sulfur-oxidizing bacterium isolated from corroded concrete. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of lining by polymer-modified mortar on the development in durability of reinforced concrete pipe. Polymer-modified mortars ate prepared with various polymer typer as cement modifier and polymer-cement ratio and rested for compressive and flexural strengths, adhesion in tension, acid resistance test, freezing and thawing test, and lining test of product in the field. From the rest results, it is apparent that polymer-modified mortars have good mechanical properties and durability as lining material. In practice, all polymers can be used as lining materials for reinforced concrete pip, and type of polymer, and polymer-cement ratio and curing conditions are controlled for good lining product.

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of polymer coating on the initial microorganism attachment and the biofilm growth. Such as nonion(polyacrylamine), anion(CMC-Na) and cation polymer coagulant(chitosan and PEI) were used for coating material of the support carrier(acryl plate). When polymer coagulant was coated with 5, 10, 20, 35, 50, 100 and 200 mg/l on the surface of acryl plate, initial microorganism attachment increased and optimum concentration for the attachment was 35 mg/l. Biofilm growth experiments were conducted with the substrate loading of 12.7gSCOD/$m^2\cdot$ day using RBC. The polymer coagulants such as CMC-Na, polyacrylamide, PEI and chitosan coating on the acryl plate facilitated the biofilm growth of microorganisms. Until the biofilm dry weight grows up to 0. 0038g/cm$^2$, biofilm growth on the plate coated with cation polymer like chitosan was better than that on the coated plate of nonion(polyacrylamine), anion(CMC-Na) polymer coagulant.

In this paper, in order to improve the withstand voltage properties of epoxy resin, IPN(interpenetrating polymer network) method was introduced and the influence was investigated. The single network structure specimen(E series), simultaneous interpenetrating polymer network specimen(EM series) and pseudo interpenetrating polymer network(EMP series) specimen were manufactured. In order to understand the internal structure properties, scanning electron microscopy method was utilized, and glass transition temperature was measured. Also, AC voltage dielectric breakdown strength, tensile strength and impact strength were measured to investigate the influence upon electrical and mechanical properties. As a result, it was confirmed that simultaneous interpenetrating polymer network specimen was the most execellent.

In this study, the fire resistance performance of polymer cement mortars which are used as a representative repair material for section restoration, is evaluated and residual bond strength is measured by considering unity with concrete. According to the evaluation of fire resistance performance of re-emulsification type polymer cement mortars, residual compressive strength was drastically decreased according to heating temperatures with an increase of polymer addition rate, and this seems to be attributable to the application of polymer film. In addition, an explosion phenomenon occurred frequently with an increase of addition rate, so this should be considered when selecting repair materials and processing.

Polymer foams were used to fill the void in the structure in addition to flame retardant and heat insulation. Polymer foams such as polyurethane, polyisocyanurate, poly(vinyl chloride), polyethylene terephthalate were used to weight lighting materials. In this study, epoxy foam was used to improve mechanical properties of polymer foam. Acid anhydride type hardener reacts with polyol. Using this phenomenon, if blowing agent was added into epoxy resin using acid anhydride type hardener, formation and compressive properties of epoxy foam was studied. Formation of polymer foam was compared with type of blowing agent and concentration of blowing agent via compressive test. As these results, optimized condition of epoxy foam was found and epoxy foam had better compressive property than other polymer foam.

In this research, the composites (100-x)LCP-xBNT (x = 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 vol.%) were fabricated with thermoplastic LCP(Liquid Crystal Polymer) and BNT($BaNd_2Ti_4O_{12}$) which is a high frequency dielectric material. Their dielectric properties, mechanical strength and microstructure were investigated by Impedance analyser, Instron and SEM. In order to fabricate LCP-BNT composites, LCP resin was put into the twin screw type mixer($310^{\circ}C$), melted by keeping for 10 min. After that, BNT filler was dispersed with melted LCP resin for 15 min. in the mixer. For measuring the dielectric properties and mechanical strength, Composite specimens were made by pressing composite granule (LCP-BNT) with 7 ton in the mold at $310^{\circ}C$. With increasing the BNT content (0~40 vol.%) of the composite, Its dielectric constant increased, dielectric loss and flexural strength decreased. The dielectric constant and flexural strength of composites with 20~30 vol.% of BNT filler are 4.1~6.0 and 35~55 MPa respectively. BNT/LCP composite is the potential substrate material for the high frequency application.

A microwave NDI(Nondestructive Inspecting) method, based on SAR(Synthetic Aperture Radar) for inspecting such internal flaws or physical demage of FRP(Fiber Reinforced Polymer), is proposed in this paper. When a microwave is incident perpendicularly toward a multilayer dielectric FRP material, it gives a good response for the interfaces or transverse cracks. Interface depths or defect positions can be presented from the reflection waves, as using SAR imagery technique. As a result, it can be shown that such a SAR system can effectively inspect the type, size, or location of flaws within FRP composite material.

The interface between the surface of a cathode material and the electrolyte gives rise to surface reactions such as solid electrolyte interface (SEI) and chemical side reactions. These reactions lead to increased surface resistance and charge transfer resistance. It is consequently necessary to improve the electrochemical characteristics by suppressing these reactions. In order to suppress unnecessary surface reactions, we coated cathode material using polypropylene (PP). The PP coating layer effectively reduced the SEI film that is generated after a 4.3 V initial charging process. By mitigating the formation of the SEI film, the PP-coated Li[(Ni_0.6Co_0.1Mn_0.3)_0.36(Ni_0.80Co_0.15Al0.05)_0.64)]O₂(NCS) electrode provided enhanced transport of Li⁺ ions due to reduced SEI resistance (R_SEI) and charge transfer resistance (R_ct). The initial charge and discharge efficiency of the PP-coated NCS electrode was 96.2 % at a current density of 17 mA/g in a voltage range of 3.0 ~ 4.3 V, whereas the efficiency of the NCS electrode was only 94.7 %. The presence of the protective PP layer on the cathode improved the thermal stability by reducing the generated heat, and this was confirmed via DSC analysis by an increased exothermic peak.
