E-textile과 같은 웨어러블 전자소자는 휴대용 전자소자, 의료센서 및 디스플레이 등을 포함하는 다기능 직물등의 적용가능 응용분야에서의 잠재력으로 인하여 많은 관심을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이같은 응용분야에 적용하기 위하여 전기방사를 이용한 나노크기의 나일론 섬유를 제작하고 reduced graphene oxide를 섬유에 코팅하여 전도성을 가지는 나노섬유를 제작하였다. 나일론 알갱이를 포름산에 녹인 용액을 이용하여 전기방사를 통해 약 100 nm 두께를 가지는 나노섬유를 제작하였다. 제작된 나일론 섬유와 그래핀 옥사이드 사이의 결합력을 향상시키기 위하여 BSA(bovine serum albumin)으로 표면 처리를 하였다. 마지막으로 나일론 섬유에 코팅된 그래핀 옥사이드를 hydrazine을 이용하여 환원하여 전도성을 가지는 섬유를 제작하였다. 제작된 전도성을 가지는 섬유는 약 10 kohm 정도의 저항을 가지는 것을 확인하였으며, 물리적인 외부 변형에서도 안정적으로 전도성을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 전도성을 가지는 나노섬유는 웨어러블 전자소자를 제작하는데 응용 가능할 뿐만 아니라, 전기방사를 통한 나노구조물 제작 기술을 가스센서, 바이오센서, 태양전지, 나노소자등 다양한 분야에 적용 가능한 우수한 기술이라고 생각한다.

The field emission properties of CNT-emitters coated with Ag-Cu alloy have been investigated. The vertical aligned multi-walled CNTs were synthesized by dc-plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (dc-PECVD) and the Ag-Cu alloy was coated by using dc-magnetron sputter. The morphology of alloy-coated and un-coated CNT-emitters was observed by using SEM and their field emission properties were also measured. Annealing the AgCu-coated CNTs at temperature more than ${\sim}700^{\circ}C$, the Ag-Cu alloy was diffused to and aggregated on the top of the CNT as a Q-tip. A significant progress on the field emission was not observed with coating Ag-Cu alloy on the CNTs, but a certain improvement in a resistance against oxygen gas was made confirmation. It seems to be due to inertness of Ag-Cu alloy on the CNTs.

Three-layer nano-coated films in applications for the back cover of mobile cellular phones were prepared utilizing a roll-to-roll continuous process. By introducing a coating layer with a ceramic/metal/ceramic three-layer structure, the inherent reflective properties of the metals were maintained while electrically insulating properties were maintained. The thickness of the composite coating layer on a large area PET film with a length of 1,500 nm and width of 500 nm was less than 60 nm, and a uniform thickness was maintained in all areas. The transmittance according to the wavelength range (240~1600 nm) of the nanocoating film gradually increases as the wavelength increases, and is about 48 % at 1,000 nm, which is within the infrared region, and about 35.5 % at 550 nm, which is within the visible region. These results meet the required level of coated backcover (< 40 %).

저항이 낮고 투과도가 일정한 투명전도막(TCF)의 내구성을 향상 및 유지 시키는 연구는 상업화에 가장 필요한 연구 분야이다. 그 중 탄소나노튜브(CNT)와 실버나노와이어(AgNW)를 섞어 만든 CNT-AgNW는 우수한 광투과성과 내화학성 및 균일한 전기 전도성을 갖고 있고 그 기반의 투명전도막은 기존의 ITO 및 CNT 박막보다 우수한 유연성을 갖기 때문에 차세대 플렉시블 디스플레이 소재로서 많은 관심을 모으고 있다. 본 연구는 PET를 이용한 CNT-AgNW로 제작된 투명전도막 위에 물성 및 두께 따른 하드오버 코팅을 통한 내구성 개선 및 유지를 연구하였다. 하드오버 코팅 물질로는 실로콘계 하이브리드 투명 하드코팅 소재를 기본으로 하고 용매 및 용질의 합성 온도를 제어하고 코팅막의 두께(Thin, Thick)를 조절을 통해 내구성 개선을 증진시키려 하였다. 연구결과 물성 향상에 가장 많은 영향을 끼치는 것은 CNT-AgNW 코팅층과 하드오버 코팅층과의 젖음성으로, 그 젖음성이 증가할수록 투과도 및 전기전도도가 향상되는 것을 관찰하였다. 분석 결과, 용매의 비점 및 비중, 용질의 합성 온도가 하드오버코팅 젖음성에 가장 많은 영향을 주는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 항온 항습($85^{\circ}C/85%$) 환경에서 240시간 이상 내구성 테스트 결과 하드오버코팅 물질 중 고온합성 및 고비점 용매를 이용하고 thick 조건이 Thin조건보다 투명전도성 평가 지수(${\sigma}DC/{\sigma}OP$)가 향상 되었다. 또한 Thin에서 면저항(${\Omega}/{\square}$) 변화율이 10% 이상을 보인 반면, Thick에서는 10% 이내의 변화율 유지를 확인하였다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of emulsion processing with various homogenization treatments on the physical properties of nanoparticles. For the manufacturing of nanoparticles, by taking the emulsion-diffusion method, various coating materials, such as gum arabic, hydroxyethyl starch, polycarprolactone, paraffin wax, ${\kappa}$-carrageenan and emulsifiers like Tween$^{(R)}$60, Tween$^{(R)}$80, monoglyceride and Pluronic$^{(R)}$F68, were added into the emulsion system. Furthermore, the various speeds (7,000 rpm to 10,000 rpm), and times (15 s to 60 s) of homogenization were treated during the emulsion- diffusion process. NEO II homomixer was the most effective homogenizer for making nanoparticles as 51 nm ($D_{10}$) and 26 nm ($D_{50}$). To manufacture smaller nanoparticles, by using NEO II homomixer, 10,000 rpm of agitation speed, polycaprolactone as coating material, and Pluronic$^{(R)}$F68 as an emulsifier were the optimum operating conditions and components. For the stability of nanoparticles for 7 days, $20^{\circ}C$ of storage temperature was appropriate to maintain the particle size. From these results, the type of homogenizer, homogenization speed, homogenization time and storage temperature could affect the particle size. Moreover, type of coating materials and emulsifier also influenced the size and stability of the nanoparticles.

The effect of synthesis conditions such as carbon nanotube (CNT), 2,2,2-trifluoroethylmethacrylate (3FMA), and composition of organic-inorganic material in ozone resistance and surface characteristics of ultraviolet cured organic-inorganic hybrid coating film has been investigated. Coating solution was prepared using tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), silane coupling agent methacryloyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS), 3FMA, various organic materials with acrylate group, and CNT, then bar-coated on substrates using applicator, and densified by UV-curing. It was found that ozone resistance and adhesion of the coating film were strongly dependent upon contents of TEOS, 3FMA, and CNT. Especially, ozone resistance, adhesion, and surface hardness of coating film with CNT were improved, relatively. Ozone resistance of coating film with a high TEOS content was increased, but adhesion was decreased. In addition, it was also found that ozone resistance of coating film was increased with contents of 3FMA. On the other hand, surface hardness was decreased with increase of 3FMA.

SAC-coated Cu specimens were fabricated by novel pad finish process using a phenomenon that metal nanoparticles less than 20 nm in diameter melted at a temperature lower than the melting point of bulk metal, and their wettabilities were evaluated. The thickness of SAC305 layer coated at low temperature of $160^{\circ}C$ using SAC305 ink was extremely thin as the level of several nanometers. It was analyzed by Auger electron spectroscopy that $Cu_6Sn_5$ intermetallic layer with a thickness of 10~100 nm and $Cu_3Sn$ intermetallic layer with a thickness of 50~150 nm were sequentially formed under the SAC305 coating layer. The thickness of formed intermetallic layers was thicker in electroplated Cu than rolled Cu, which attributed to improved surface roughness in the electroplated Cu. The improved surface roughness induces the contact, melting, and reaction of a larger number of SAC305 nanoparticles per the unit area of Cu specimen. In the wetting angle test using SAC305 solder balls, the Cu coated with SAC305 through the low temperature process presented evidently low wetting angles than those in non-coated Cu, indicating that only a few nanometer-thick SAC305 coating layer on Cu could also cause the enhancement of wettability.

Recently, various studies on flexible electronic devices have been performed. In this study, the potential of Ag nanowires was evaluated as a material to replace the ITO transparent conductive film. Ag nanomaterials were formed on the glass by a novel brush coating method and an argon plasma evaporation method based on atmospheric pressure plasma. First, the Ag solution is coated on the glass with a brush, and the remaining solvent is removed with atmospheric plasma. During this process of solvent evaporation, a sound is generated by the reaction between the atmospheric plasma and the solvent. Therefore, the remaining amount of the solvent can be confirmed. In order to observe optical properties and electrical results such as reflectance, transmittance, and absorbance according to the number of coatings of the film, the results were analyzed by coating up to 5 times. For the purpose of investigating the interaction of light with Ag nanowires, reflectance and transmittance were measured while changing the wavelength of light from 200 nm to 800 nm. In the case of absorbance, the trend of increasing light absorption of the Ag nanowires according to the coating was clearly confirmed. The electrical properties showed a great change from the time of coating more than 4 times, and in particular, the resistance value was lower than kΩ/cm2 when the coating was applied 5 times. Based on these optical and electrical results, we plan to verify the possibility of a transparent conductive film by applying it to electronic devices in the future.
