Expanded graphite/carbon fiber hybrid conductive polymer composites were fabricated by the preform molding technique. The conductive fillers were mechanically mixed with a phenol resin to provide an electrical property to composites. The conductive filler loading was fixed at 60wt.% to accomplish a high electrical conductivity. Expanded graphites were excellent in forming a conductive networking by direct contacts between them while it was hard to get the high flexural strength over 40MPa with using only expanded graphite and phenol resin. In this study, carbon fibers were added in composites to compensate the weakened flexural strength. The effect of carbon fibers on the mechanical and electrical properties was examined according to the weight ratio of carbon fiber. As the carbon fiber ratio increased, the flexural strength increased until the carbon fiber ratio of 24wt.%, and then decreased afterward. The electrical conductivity gradually decreased as the increase of the carbon fiber ratio. This was attributed to the non-conducting regions generated among the carbon fibers and the reduction of the direct contact areas between expanded graphites.

다이아몬드 상 탄소(diamond-like carbon, DLC)는 상당량의 $sp^3$ 결합을 가지는 비정질 탄소(a-C) 또는 수소화 비정질 탄소(a-C:H)로 이루어진 준안정 형태의 탄소이다. DLC는 전기 저항과 굴절률이 높고 화학적으로 다른 물질과 반응하지 않으며, 마찰계수가 낮고 경도가 높아 자기 디스크, 광학 소자 등의 다양한 분야에서 적용되고 있다[1,2]. 또한 다이아몬드에 비해 상온에서 성장이 가능할 정도로 합성온도가 낮아 적용 기판의 제한이 거의 없고, 증착 방법과 조건에 따라 탄소 결합의 다양성과 비정질성이 변화하기 때문에 넓은 범위의 특성을 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있다. 지금까지 DLC 박막의 광학적 특성, 특히 굴절률, 광학적인 에너지 밴드 갭, 자외선과 적외선 투과성에 대해서는 많은 연구가 진행되었으나 가시광선의 투과성에 대한 연구는 제한적이며[4], 가시광선 투과도 개선에 대한 연구는 전무하다. 본 연구에서는 ITO 기판 위에 DLC를 합성하고 기계적 특성과 가시광선 영역 투과도를 조사하였다. RF-PECVD(radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) 방법에 의해서 $C_2H_2+Ar$ 혼합 가스 비율과 $C_2H_2+N_2$ 혼합 가스 비율을 변화시켜 ITO 기판 위에 DLC 박막을 합성하였다. 공정 압력과 rf-power, 증착시간, 기판온도는 0.2 torr, 40 W, 5 분, $50^{\circ}C$로 고정하고, 공정 가스는 $C_2H_2+Ar$과 $C_2H_2+N_2$가 200 sccm이 되도록 비율을 변화하였다. $C_2H_2:Ar$과 $C_2H_2:N_2$의 비율은 180 : 20, 160 : 40, 140 : 60, 120 : 80, 100 : 100이 되도록 가스의 유량을 조절하였다. 투과도는 가시광선(380 ~ 780 nm) 범위에서 측정하였고 두께와 표면조도는 AFM으로 측정하였다. 투과도는 $C_2H_2+Ar$의 Ar 가스 비율이 증가할수록 증가해 140 : 60일 때 최댓값을 나타낸 후 다시 감소하였다. $C_2H_2+N_2$ 투과도는 $N_2$ 가스 비율이 증가할수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 표면 거칠기는 $C_2H_2+Ar$ 혼합 가스를 사용한 경우의 Ar의 가스 비율이 증가할수록 증가하였다. 그러나 $C_2H_2+N_2$ 혼합 가스를 사용한 경우에는 $N_2$ 가스의 혼합 비율이 증가할수록 감소하였다.

In this study, to reinforce the surface layer of weathered soil slopes where erosion and collapse of surface layer occur, compression strength tests were conducted by mixing carbon fiber and eco-friendly stabilizer (E.S.B.) To determine the optimal mixing ratio of E.S.B. and carbon fiber, E.S.B. was set at conditions of 10%, 20%, and 30%, and carbon fiber at 0.3%, 0.6%, 0.9%, and 1.2%. Additionally, to analyze the changes in compressive strength according to dry density and curing period, 85% and 95% of the maximum dry unit weight were applied, and curing periods were set to 3 days, 7 days, and 28 days. The standard strength for surface layer reinforcement of slopes is proposed as 4 MPa at 7 days and 6 MPa at 28 days according to ACI 230.1R-09 (2009). The compression test results showed that the unconfined compressive strength of E.S.B. reinforced soil met the standard strength at an E.S.B. mixing ratio of 10% or more for 95% compaction. Moreover, when carbon fiber was mixed with E.S.B. reinforced soil, a ductile fracture pattern was observed after the yield point due to compressive strength, indicating that the mixture could compensate for post-yield failure. It was analyzed that the maximum strength is exhibited at a carbon fiber mixing ratio of 0.6%. The unconfined compressive strength of carbon fiber reinforced soil increases by approximately 54-70% compared to the condition without carbon fiber.

Utilizing admixture, which is one of the raw material replacement method in the cement industry, is expected to be easily and quickly put to practical use as it is relatively more accessible than other methods. Among cement admixtures, limestone powder is reported to be able to improve cement performance through nucleation effects, chemical effects, and filler effects, so it is a material expected to be suitable as a cement admixture. Meanwhile, as high-quality limestone is depleted around the world, the use of limestone with clay or high magnesia (MgO) content is becoming increasingly inevitable. Therefore, in this study, we attempted to evaluate the suitability of limestone cement as a admixture by measuring the basic properties of limestone cement mixed with limestone of different qualities commonly used in Korea. As a result, the effect of alite reaction promotion was confirmed regardless of the chemical composition of the limestone binder. However, the dilution effect depending on the substitution amount was greater than the chemical composition. It is believed that normal-grade limestone can be used as a mixture as long as the limestone content in cement is within 15 % in this scope of study. In the future, we plan to evaluate the impact of the chemical composition of the limestone mixture through additional experiments depending on the chemical composition of cement.

탄소나노튜브는 높은 전기 전도성과 열 전도성을 가지며, 이러한 특성 때문에 21세기를 주도해 나갈 수 있는 차세대 첨단 소재로서 각광을 받고 있다. 또한 최근에는 나노공학기술의 발달로 인하여 획기적으로 높은 열전도도를 나타내는 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes, MWCNTs)의 대량 생산이 가능하게 되면서 다중벽 탄소나노튜브의 높은 열전도도 특성을 이용하여 탄소나노튜브를 기본 유체 및 기능성 유체에 안정하게 분산 시킨 후 이를 이용하고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 탄소나노튜브를 유체에 안정하게 분산시키기 위한 방법으로는 기계적 분산법, 물리적 흡착에 의한 분산법, 화학적 개질에 의한 분산법이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 이들 분산 방법과 탄소나노튜브 입자의 물성치에 따른 나노유체의 특성을 알아보기 위하여 나노유체의 열전도도와 점도 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 모든 물성치는 같지만 탄소나노튜브의 길이만 다른 두 종류의 다중벽 탄소나노튜브에 각각 계면 활성제(Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate, SDS) 100 wt%와 고분자 화합물(Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone, PVP) 300 wt%를 첨가하여 나노유체를 제조하였으며, 산화처리 된 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(Oxidized Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes, OMWCNTs)를 증류수에 초음파 분산하여 산화나노유체를 제조하였다. 나노유체의 열전도도는 전기 전도성 유체의 비정상 열선법(Transient Hot-wire Method)을 이용하여 측정하였고, 나노유체의 점도는 회전형 디지털 점도계를 이용하여 측정하였다. 실험 결과, 상온에서 동일 혼합비의 나노유체를 비교했을 때, 산화나노유체가 SDS 100 wt%, PVP 300 wt%를 혼합한 다른 나노유체보다 높은 열전도도 특성을 보였으며 점도 특성 또한 가장 낮은 것으로 측정되었다. 특히 상온에서 0.1vol%의 산화 CM-100 나노유체는 증류수보다 열전도도가 8.34%가 증가하였고, $10^{\circ}C$의 저온에서는 상온에서 증류수와 비교하여 측정된 열전도도 값보다 0.36%가 감소한 7.98%가 증가함을 보였다. 본 연구를 통하여 얻어진 결과는 높은 열전도도를 필요로 하는 열교환기의 작동유체나 기타 활용 분야에 대한 기초 자료로써 유용한 정보를 제공할 것이라 판단된다.

In this study, for efficiency enhancement of low temperature heat exchanger, the thermal conductivity and the viscosity of carbon nanofluids and oxidized carbon nanofluids were measured at $10^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. Carbon nanofluids were made by ultrasonic-dispersing ones in distilled water after Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) mixed Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS, 100 wt%), Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP, 300 wt%) each. Oxidized carbon nanofluids were made by ultrasonic-dispersing Oxidized Carbon Nanotubes (OMWCNTs) in distilled water. The thermal conductivity of carbon nanofluids was measured by using a transient hot-wire method. The viscosity was measured by using a digital viscometer. As a result, the thermal conductivity of oxidized carbon nanofluids was the highest of those compared and the other carbon nanofluids at the same mixture ratio and temperature, and the viscosity was measured the lowest of those compared and the other carbon nanofluids.

With rapid increase in municipal solid waste (MSW) due to the rising economy, solid waste gasification emerges as one of the promising technologies. Separation of the carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen ($H_2$) from syngas obtained by gasification of MSW was studied using the polyamide composite membrane. The separation characteristics of the CO and $H_2$ were studied at different gas flow rates and stage cuts. The permeability of CO and $H_2$ along with the selectivity of $H_2$ with respect to CO was obtained. Furthermore, the Arrhenius plots were obtained to estimate the activation energies of CO and $H_2$ permeabilites.

Nanomaterials having large surface area, uniform dimensions or pores can be utilized in various membrane applications Amongst them, many studies have been focused on nanocarbon materials: graphene, graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes, one-dimensional structure, have excellent characteristics in thermal, chemical and mechanical strength properties. However, carbon nanotubes was mainly used to reinforce mechanical properties of polymer materials in previous applications. In contrast to previous studies, we focused on modified carbon nanotubes/polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) composite membrane preparation for improvement of permeability and selectivity on gas separation.
