용융탄산염 연료전지 상용화를 위해서 40,000 시간이상 장기 운전이 가능해야 한다. 장기운전을 위해 크랙 발생이 적고 기계적 강도가 높은 강화 매트릭스의 개발이 절실히 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $LiAlO_2$에 알루미늄 나노입자를 첨가하여 매트릭스의 기계적 강도를 향상시키는 연구를 수행하였다. 나노 알루미늄 첨가 $LiAlO_2$ 그린 시트를 수소 분위기에서 열처리한 결과, 공기 분위기에서 열처리한 매트릭스에 비해 기계적 강도가 1.5배 증가함을 확인하였다. 이는 환원분위기에서 열처리를 할 경우, 알루미늄의 입자간의 소결으로 인한 neck이 형성 되어 $LiAlO_2$ 입자 간에 다리를 만들어주는 효과가 나타나 매트릭스의 기계적 강도가 크게 증진되었으리라 판단된다.

A study of linear and branched polycarbonates blend system is presented. Flow and mechanical properties, and miscibility were studied for the blends of various compositions. No phase separations were observed in the blend systems. The mechanical properties of blends were examined through tensile strength, tensile modulus, flexural strength, flexural modulus and impact strength. Melt viscosity, storage and loss moduli of the blends with various compositions were examined at various temperatures. The dependence of viscosity on molecular weight was also presented. Flow properties of the blends showed significant variations however, mechanical properties were relatively independent of the compositions. As the content of branched polycarbonate increased, the dependence of viscosity on molecular weight and shear thinning behavior became more marked. Therefore the blend systems which have same mechanical properties but different flow properties can be obtained.

The understanding of the mechanical properties of amyloid fibers, which induce various neurodegenerative diseases, is directly related to the amyloid growth mechanism. Diverse studies have been performed on amyloid fibers from the viewpoint of disease epidemiology. Recently, attempts have been made to use amyloid fibers as new materials because of their notable mechanical properties and self-aggregation abilities. In this study, the mechanical properties of transthyretin (TTR105-115), which induces cardiovascular disease, were evaluated using a molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. In particular, the effect of the end-terminal capping on the structural stability of TTR105-115 was evaluated. The mechanical behavior and properties of TTR105-115 were measured by steered molecular dynamics (SMD). We clarified the factors affecting the mechanical properties of these materials and suggested the possibility of utilizing them as nature inspired materials.

Cr-Mo 합금강은 고온 환경 하에서 높은 크리이프 강도와 우수한 내식성 때문에 발전설비, 석유 화학, 그리고 해양산업과 같은 여러 산업분야에서 널리 사용되고 있다. 특히, Cr-Mo 강의 내식성은 합금 내 Cr 함량에 크게 의존한다. 이는 고온에서 Cr과 O가 화학적 반응을 일으킴에 따라 보호성의 Cr 산화스케일을 형성하기 때문이다. 그러나 화석연료를 사용하는 발전설비의 경우, $SO_2$가 포함된 강한 부식성의 연소 가스가 배출되며, 이에 노출된 금속의 표면에서는 산화와 황화가 동시에 발생한다. 황화스케일은 산화스케일에 비해 매우 빠르게 성장하며, 그 특성이 매우 취약하기 때문에 황화 환경에서 금속의 내식성 및 기계적 물성치는 보다 크게 저하된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 화력 발전소의 증기발생용 튜브 재료인 9Cr-1MoVNb 강을 선정하였으며, $SO_2$ 가스 환경 하에서의 부식 및 기계적 물성치 저하 특성을 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 9Cr-1MoVNb강의 화학 성분 조성은 0.1 C, 0.38 Si, 0.46 Mn, 0.25 Ni, 8.38 Cr, 0.93 Mo, 0.18 V, 0.09 Nb, 그리고 나머지는 Fe이다. 부식시험은 가공된 미소시험편과 인장시험편을 전기열처리로에 장입한 후, $650^{\circ}C$에서 $N_2+O_2+O_2+SO_2$ 조성의 가스를 분당 50 CC로 흘려주었다. 제작된 시험편에 대한 부식거동은 무게 증가량, optical microscope, scanning electron microsope, 그리고 energy dispersive x-ray spectrum을 통해 평가하였다. 그리고 기계적 물성치 평가를 위한 인장시험은 분당 2mm 변위제어를 통해 실시하였다. 그 결과, 9Cr-1MoVNb 강은 $SO_2$ 가스 환경 하에서 비 보호적인 Fe-풍부상의 산화 스케일층이 두껍게 형성됨에 따라 열악한 내식성을 나타냈다. 그에 따라 기계적 물성치는 저하되는 경향을 나타내었다.

Industrial design, as a traditional meaning, is based on the method of production by machine beginning with the Industrial Revolution. At present, the identity of design is in confusion with the development of computer and related medium technology. The new wave called 'cyber' has doubts about the hypothesis in the method of production by machine as the production method by machine had doubts about the hypothesis of the production method by handicraft long before. This thesis is a study on how computers and new media, such as virtual reality, change our environments and susceptibilities of life and design culture. The thesis is going to dismantle and reorganize the material-oriented classification based on the production method by machine through the discussion on cyberspace and culture, image. and text, virtual image and reality, and so on. Eventually this study finds out a topography and identity of the design in this changing age.

Oxy-PAN fiber prepared from the preoxidation and saponification of raw PAN fiber is known to elongate and contract when immersed in basic and acidic solutions, respectively. In this study, about 30% elongation in NaOH solution and 30∼50% contraction in HCl solution have been observed. In mechanical test, the mechanical properties of oxy-PAN fiber in the contracted state was stronger than that in the elongated state. These behaviors and mechanical properties are compared to those of living muscle and linear actuator. The change of length in NaOH and HCl solutions is due to switching between a hydrophilic and a hydrophobic structure. Other reasons are exchange of ion and water in/out of oxy-PAN fiber, and osmotic pressure difference associated with relevant ions. Much studies are needed to clarify the effective factors on but the oxy-PAN fiber's elongation/contraction behavior and mechanical properties, but the oxy-PAN fiber perpared in our laboratory has a sufficient potential for application as artificial muscle and linear actuator.

We synthesized polyurethane elastomer containing acid groups. We measured the adhesion, grip, tensile strength and mechanical properties. Casting polyurethane elastomers were prepared with the contents of acid. The adhesive strength and the wet slip were increased. Also, the tensile strength and abrasion properties were increased. We measured the properties with different acid contents. Increasing the acid content, the mechanical properties were increased. But the mechanical properties were decreased above 0.20 wt% of acid content. The wet slip was increased and the contact angle was decreased as the acid content increased.

In this work, the effect of fiber array direction including $0^{\circ}$, $0^{\circ}/90^{\circ}$, $0^{\circ}/45^{\circ}/-45^{\circ}$ was investigated for mechanical properties of basalt fiber-reinforced composites. Mechanical properties of the composites were studied using interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and critical stress intensity factor ($K_{IC}$) measurements. The cross-section morphologies of basalt fiber-reinforced epoxy composites were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Also, the surface properties of basalt fibers were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). From the results, it was observed that acid treated basalt fiber-reinforced composites showed significantly higher mechanical interfacial properties than those of untreated basalt fiber-reinforced composites. These results indicated that the hydroxyl functional groups of basalt fibers lead to the improvement of the mechanical interfacial properties of basalt fibers/epoxy composites in the all array direction.

In this work, poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) nanofibers were fabricated by electrospinning to prepare the nanofibers-reinforced composites. And the PEO powders-impregnated composites were also prepared to compare the mechanical interfacial behaviors of the composites. Morphology and fiber diameter of PEO nanofibers were determined by SEM observation. Mechanical interfacial properties of the composites were investigated in fracture toughness $(K_{IC})$ and interlaminar shea. strength (ILSS) tests. As a result, the fiber diameter was decreased with increasing the applied voltage. And optimum condition for the fiber formation was 15 kV, resulting from increasing of jet instability at high voltage. The PEO-based nanofibers-reinforced epoxy composites showed the improvements of both $K_{IC}$ and ILSS, compared to the composites impregnated with PEO powders. These results indicated that the nanofibers had higher specific surface area and larger aspect ratio than those of the powders, which played an important role in improving the mechanical interfacial properties of the composites.
