Structural and thermal characteristics of silk fibroin/poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)(PHEMA) blend films were investigated using FTIR, X-ray diffractometer, differential scanning calorimeter, thermogravimeter and scanning electron microscope. FTIR spectra showed that the conformation of silk fibroin prepared by dissolving in formic acid was $\beta$-sheet, which did not affected by blending with PHEMA. The X-ray diffraction patterns also showed that individual crystalline structure of silk fibroin and PHEMA was not affected for the blend films. The initial thermal decomposition temperature of silk fibroin/PHEMA blend film tends to be higher than either of silk fkbroin or PHEMA. Thermal stability of both polymers, more notably PHEMA, can be improved by blending two components. As a result of SEM observation, the phases separation for silk fibroin/PHEMA blend films occured regardless of blend ratio ; continuous and dispersed phase were silk fibroin and PHEMA component, respectively.

The combustion characteristics, ignition delay, p-t, dp/dt, Q-t of diesel oil and fish oil blended diesel oils was investigated according to pressure and temperature in a constant volume combustion bomb. The results are as follows: 1) The influence of temperature and pressure on the ignition delay was almost constant in high temperature, regardless of the blending rates, and the ignition delay was shortest in the 60% blend. 2) The maximum pressure was high in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend. 3) The rate of pressure rise was high in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend. The rate of maximum pressure rise was significantly higher with pure diesel oil than with two blends. 4) The amount of accumulative heat release was large in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend.

The morphology of silk fibroin/poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA)blend films was investigated using optical microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. The effects of blend ratio and molecular weight of silk fibroin and PVA on phase separation were studied. Macro-phase separation occurred for the silk fibroin-rich/poor region whereas micro-phase separation took place for the dispersed/continuous phase, In spite of differences in molecular weight and blend ratio, it is observed that the dispersed phase and continuous one are composed of silk fibroin and PVA component, respectively. As the molecular weight of silk fibroin and silk fibroin content in blend ratio are decreased, the compatibility of blend is increased due to the reduction of micro-phase separation.

Poly-butylene-terephalate(PBT) can be impact-modified by blending with ABS material. The effects of compatibilizers and ABS content on the mechanical properties of PBT/ABS blend were examined in this study. EPDM-g-GMA and polycarbonate(PC) were used as a compatibilizer. As the GMA content in EPDM-g-GMA increased, the tensile strength of PBT/ABS blend increased and the impact strength decreased. With increasing the EPDM-g-GMA content in PBT/ABS blend, the tensile strength and impact strength decreased. With PC compatibilizer, the particle size of ABS in PBT/ABS blend became smaller than that of the blend without compatibilizer and the particles were more evenly dispersed in matrix. The maximum impact strength of the PBT/ABS blend was observed in the range of 20~30% ABS content.

A calibration curve is needed to determine the SBR and BR blend ratio of SBR/BR blend rubber compounds using pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass chromatography (Py-GC/MS) or Py-GC. In general, a calibration curve is obtained using reference SBR/BR vulcanizates with various blend ratios. In this study, the calibration curves were obtained using reference samples made of rubber solutions and were compared to those plotted using the reference SBR/BR vulcanizates. Calibration curves using variations of 1,3-butadiene/styrene, 4-vinylcyclohexene (VCH)/styrene, 2-phenylpropene (PhP)/butadiene, PhP/VCH, 4-phenylcyclohexene (PhCH)/butadiene, and PhCH/VCH ratios with the BR content were examined for the suitability. We found that the calibration curves obtained using the mixed rubber solution references (1,3-butadiene/styrene and PhP/butadiene) could replace those constructed using the reference SBR/BR vulcanizates. The calibration curves of 1,3-butadiene/styrene and PhP/butadiene obtained using the raw references can be used for the determination of the SBR/BR blend ratios by applying some correction factors.

This paper proposes a method for obtaining blend surfaces between machining data of surfaces. This blending algorithm consists of trangation, detection, tracing, construction of blend surfaces, and generation of machining data for the blend surfaces. Inpus of the algorithm are a blend radius and machining data of surfaces to be blended. CL data as well as CC data can be applied as an input machining data of the algorithm.

In this work, the effect of blend on physical and electrical properties investigated. The two kinds of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) whose densities are evaluated at $0.9179[g/cm^3]$ and $0.9192[g/cm^3]$, respectively, were used and blended according to the different blend ratio. The LDPE with the blend ratio of 50[wt%] represented the lowest impulse breakdown strength, $F_{BImp}$ at $30[^{\circ}C]$, but the highest $F_{BImp}$ at $90[^{\circ}C]$. DC breakdown strength, $F_{BDC}$. decreased with the increase of blend ratio at $30[^{\circ}C$, but increased at $60[^{\circ}C]$. The current density decreased with a blend ratio up to 75 [wt%] at $90[^{\circ}C]$. By analyzing the diffraction patterns of XRD, we found that the LDPE with the blend ratio of 50 [wt%] represented the largest crystal size of (020) plane. We investigated the relationship between the effect of blend and electrical properties and these results are discussed.

This study focused on the characterization of recycle PE/PET/TPE blend with compatibilizers. The heat resistance and impact strength of a weak point on PET/HDPE blend has been improved. TPE added polyester-based recycle heat-resistant properties to $150^{\circ}C$ showed more than $50^{\circ}C$ higher than HDPE added. Elastomer applied is a significant increase in the impact strength, and then it is possible to apply for safety materials in industries requiring heat-resistance and elasticity. Also using PET blend compatibilizer improves the strength of the polyolefin resin. The mechanical properties of recycle HDPE and PET blend has been greatly improved, and the reduction in the size of the dispersed phase by the addition of compatibilizers on morphology characteristics were observed uniformity becomes.

Effect on the hand value and mechanical properties of blend ratio and weight had been investigated Oil summer suits for men. Relation between the mechanical properties and the deformation in behavior was also studied. The mechanical properties which influence the hand values and total hand value had been discussed and the relation between mechanical properties, hand values and fabric count had, too. As result, the following conclusions had been obtained. 1) The values of tensile properties increased with the increase of blend ratio of wool. The values of surface properties increased according to the increase of blend ratio of polyester. 2HB(bending properties) of polyester/wool blend showed higher value than that of $100\%$ wool, but there was no change in the shearing properties according to the blend ratio. The values of stiffness, crispness and anti-drape stiffness of blend fabric showed higher values than those of $100\%$ wool fabric. The value of fullness (including softness) of blend fabric showed lower value than that of $100\%$ wool fabric. 2) The correlation between hand values and mechanical properties showed following order. in stiffness : bending properties>surface properties in crispness: surface properties>bending properties in anti-drape stiffness: bending properties>surface properties>shearing properties.

Algin is known as biodegradable natural polymer from marine plants. PVA/Algin blend films were prepared by solution blending method for the purpose of useful biodegradable polymer. Characteristics properties of PVA/Algin blend films such as DSC, Elongation, Tensile strength and Morphological change by SEM were determined. Tensile strength and Elongation were rapidly reduced as increasing the blend ratio of Algin. PVA/Algin blend films were found that phase separation was occured as more than 25wt% increasing the blend ratio of Algin. Blend films were observed to be less partially compatibility than 10wt% increasing the blend ratio of Algin by DSC, mechanical properties and SEM. Also, PVA/Algin blend films at the laboratory soil test(Pot Test) were completely degraded in months with four kinds of soils by microorganisms.
