Animal glue, a water-soluble adhesive, has been used historically for high-performance traditional furniture despite the disadvantage of weakness against moisture. Many scientists studied the ways to improve water resistance of animal glue. Improvements on the interfacial, thermal, and water resistance properties of wood sandwich composites (WSC) was studied with carbon nanotube (CNT) wt% in animal glue. Real-time temperature of WSC was measured after WSC was heated with increasing CNT wt%. Lap shear test was performed to determine the interfacial properties of wood and animal glue with CNTs. Water resistance properties of animal glue were determined by lap shear test using specimens dipped in water and the results were compared with the dry case. Hydrophobicity of animal glue by static contact angle was correlated with the variation of lap shear test. Interfacial, thermal, and water resistance properties for animal glue were improved with properly added CNTs.

탄소나노튜브는 nm급의 크기에 높은 전기전도도, 열전도 효율, 감한 기계적 강도 등의 장점을 가지며, FED(Field Emission Display), 극미세 전자 스위칭 소자, SET(Single Electron Transistor), AFM(Atomic Force Microscope) tip등 여러 분야로의 응용을 연구하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄소나노튜브를 Si 웨이퍼 위에 Ni/Ti 금속층을 촉매층으로 사용하고, 암모니아($NH_3$)가스와 아세틸렌 ($C_2H_2$)가스를 각각 희석가스와 성장원으로 사용하여 합성하였다. 탄소나노튜브의 성장은 Hot filament 화학기상증측(HFPECVD) 방식을 사용하였으며, 이 방법은 다량의 합성, 높은 균일성, 좋은 정렬 특성등의 장점을 가진다. 성장 온도는 탄소나노튜브의 성장 특성을 변화시키는 중요한 요소이다. 성장 온도에 따라 수직적 성장, 성장 밀도등의 특성 변화를 관찰하였다. 성장된 탄소나노튜브층 성분 분석은 에너지 분산형 X-선 측정기(EDS)를 통해 관찰하였고, 끝단에 촉매층이 존재하는 30~50 nm 폭을 가진 다중벽 탄소나노튜브를 고배율 투과전자현미경(HRTEM) 분석을 통해 관찰하였다. 전계방사 주사전자현미경(FESEM) 분석을 동해 1~3${\mu}m$의 길이를 가진 탄소나노튜브가 높은 밀도로 성장된 것을 확인하였다.

Activated carbons (ACs) were treated by fluorination to improve the adsorption property of toluene gas among volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The pore characteristics and surface properties of these activated carbons were evaluated by BET and XPS and the adsorption property and removal efficiency of toluene gas was investigated by gas chromatography. The breakthrough time of fluorinated ACs was increased about 27% compared to that of untreated ACs when the toluene gas of 100 ppm was flowed at a flow rate of $300cm^3/min$. Fluorinated AC of 0.1 g adsorbent totally adsorbed toluene gas in 100 ppm to 100 % during the adsorption time in 19 h. These results can be used as a treatment technology or removal of carcinogenic materials such as toluene.

The coupled oscillation of multi-walled carbon-nanotube (MWCNT) oscillators consisting of (5n, 5n) CNTs was investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The results show that the inter-wall coupling leads to frequency splits. And there are consistently three primary frequency peaks for the quadric-walled, penta-walled and hexa-walled CNT oscillators. It is independent of the wall parameters, suggesting applications as triple-frequency generators. Furthermore, at least one of the primary frequencies of a MWCNT oscillator is lower than that of its double-walled counterpart.

Lignin is compatible with various polymeric materials and useful as a carbon precursor. In this work, carbon monolith films were produced from polyacrylonitrile (PAN)@lignin precursor films by a controlled carbonization cycle. In addition, their morphological features, electrical properties, and adsorption behavior were analyzed and compared with those of carbonized PAN films. The successful formation of PAN@lignin precursor was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. SEM was used to examine the morphology of precursor and carbonized films, revealing that both precursor and carbonized films retained structural stability following carbonization. A trace of lignin in the carbonized films was also found. The pore structure of the carbonized PAN@lignin film was measured using the BET method, indicating the formation of fairly uniform pores. The electrical properties were also analyzed to obtain the Ohmic relation, which demonstrated that the electrical signal was influenced by incoming materials. Finally, the carbonized PAN@lignin films were useful as adsorbents to remove metal ions. This study provides important information for future initiatives in relevant research fields.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown on Ni-coated glass substrates by catalytic chemical vapor depositors (CVD) using RF plasma under $600^{\circ}C$. Various types of CNTs were obtained by different growth temperature, etching period and thickness of Ni catalyst. $NH_3$ or $H_2$ gas was used as a etching gas, then $C_2H_2$ gas was flowed as carbon source. Vertically aligned CNTs with diameter of 150 nm and length of 3 $\mu\textrm{m}$ were observed by SEM. CNTs synthesized by catalytic CVD using RF plasma should be expected to FED emitter.

몇몇의 박테리아들은 바이오필름을 형성하여 그들 스스로를 보호한다. 하지만 바이오필름으로 인해 악취와 질병 등의 문제가 많이 발생되고 있기 때문에 바이오필름을 형성하는 박테리아의 성장을 효율적으로 억제하기 위해 은 나노, 구리 나노입자들이 포함된 다양한 나노스케일의 재료들에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되어오고 있다. 이들 연구의 주된 목표는 체내에서 독성은 나타내지 않으면서 항균성을 증가시키는 것에 있다. 특히, 구형으로 이루어진 나노입자와 높은 종횡비를 가지는 탄소나노튜브와 같이 차원이 다른 나노물질들의 복합체들은 세포독성을 최소화하면서 특정 박테리아에 대한 항균성을 향상시킬지도 모른다. 이번 연구에서는, 산 처리된 탄소나노튜브에 화학적인 방법을 이용하여 구리 이온을 각각 환원시켜 구리 나노-탄소나노튜브 복합체를 합성하였다. 이들 복합체는 transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometry, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy 를 이용하여 특성이 분석되었고 Methylobacterium spp., Sphingomonas spp. 와 E. coli 에 대하여 항균성이 평가되었다. 추가적으로 구리 나노-탄소나노튜브 복합체는 human fibroblast cells 에 대하여 세포독성이 평가되었고 제작된 마이크로칩 안에 형성된 바이오필름의 성장억제효과가 평가되었다. 결과적으로, 구리 나노-탄소나노튜브 복합체에서 바이오필름을 형성하는 Methylobacterium spp. 에 대하여 특이적으로 항균성을 나타냈으며 바이오필름이 형성된 마이크로칩에서 바이오필름을 제거 하는 것이 확인되었다.

Carbon/epoxy composite bipolar plate (BP) is a BP that is likely to replace existing graphite bipolar plate of vanadium redox flow cell (VRFB) due to its high mechanical properties and productivity. Multi-functional carbon/epoxy composite BP requires graphite coating or additional surface treatment to reduce interfacial contact resistance (ICR). However, the expanded graphite coating has the disadvantage of having low durability under VRFB operating conditions, and the surface treatments incur additional costs. In this work, an excessive resin absorption method is developed, which uniformly removes the resin rich area on the surface of the BP to expose carbon fibers by applying polyester fabric. This method not only reduces ICR by exposing carbon fibers to BP surfaces, but also forms a unique ditch pattern that can effectively hold carbon felt electrodes in place. The acidic environmental durability, mechanical properties, and gas permeability of the developed carbon/epoxy composite BP are experimentally verified.
