Conductive polymer composites with high electrical and mechanical properties are in demand for bipolar plates of phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFC). In this study, composites based on natural graphite/fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) and different ratios of carbon black are mixed and hot formed into bars. The overall content of natural graphite is replaced by carbon black (0.2 wt% to 3.0 wt%). It is found that the addition of carbon black reduces electrical resistivity and density. The density of composite materials added with carbon black 3.0 wt% is 2.168 g/㎤, which is 0.017 g/㎤ less than that of non-additive composites. In-plane electrical resistivity is 7.68 μΩm and through-plane electrical resistivity is 27.66 μΩm. Compared with non-additive composites, in-plane electrical resistivity decreases by 95.7 % and through-plane decreases by 95.9 %. Also, the bending strength is about 30 % improved when carbon black is added at 2.0 wt% compared to non-additive cases. The decrease of electrical resistivity of composites is estimated to stem from the carbon black, which is a conductive material located between melted FEP and acts a path for electrons; the increasing mechanical properties are estimated to result from carbon black filling up pores in the composites.

Si3N4-TiN electro-conductive ceramic composites with 7wt% Al2O3＋3wt% Y2O3 or 5wt% MgO as sintering aids were fabricated by pressureless sintering at 1,80$0^{\circ}C$ for 1h. The 3pt. flexural strength, KIC and Vickers hardness were measrued in order to investigate the effects of TiN on the mechanical properties. Also oxidation behavior was observed by measuring the weight gain after exposure to air at 1,10$0^{\circ}C$ for 100h. the reaction products between Si3N4 and TiN was not detected by XRD and EDS. Mechanical properties of the composites were not influenced by the addition of TiN less than 30vol%, but oxidation resistance of the composites was rapidly decreased with the amount of added TiN.

본 연구에서는 고온 산화분위기 하에서 탄소/탄소 복합재료의 열적 향상을 위해 사용된 tetraethylorthosilicate(TEOS)의 첨가량에 따른 복합재료의 kinetic parameter에 기초한 열분해 메카니즘 및 열안정성을 열중량분석기(TGA)를 사용하여 고찰하였다 TEOS를 함유한 탄소/탄소 복합재료의 kinetic parameter, 즉 열분해 활성화 에너지 ($E_d$), 반응차수(n), 지수앞 인자 (A)는 각각 136 kJ/mol, 0차, 및 2.3$\times$$10^9s^{-1}$을 나타내었으며, 특히 IPDT 및 $E_d$로부터 살펴본 복합재료의 열안정성은 탄소/탄소 복합재료에 TEOS가 첨가되면 크게 향상되었는데, 이는 산소에 대한 산화방지막, 즉 $SiO_2$의 형성으로 인한 복합재료 표면에서의 카본 활성종에 산소의 침투를 방해하여 TEOS를 함유한 복합재료가 이를 함유하지 않은 것에 비하여 표면 산화 속도가 감소되어 열안정성이 증가하였다고 사료된다.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to compare HEMA and TEGDMA as diluents for the composite resin. Material and methods : Eight kinds of experimental light curable composite resins were prepared and used. Concentrations of monomer and filler were same for all experimental composites, except, the diluent's ratios to the monomer. The ratio of diluents to Bis-GMA were 15%, 20%, 25%, and 30%, and two kinds of diluents were used, so total experimental groups were eight including one control group of 25% TEGDMA. Results : Depth of cure, flexural strength, shear bond strength to bovine enamel, shear bond strength to bovine dentin, water absorption and solubility of composites in water were measured. Sample size for each groups were 10. Arithmetic means were used as each groups representative values, and regression test for two diluents and low concentrations, Duncan's multiple range test, and Two-way ANOVA test were done for kinds of diluents and its concentrations at level of 0.05. Conclusion : Following results were obtained ; 1. There were not significant differences in effects of HEMA and TEGDMA to depth of cure, flexural strength of composites and shear bond strength to bovine enamel (p>0.05). 2. Increase of the concentrations of the diluents made the depth of cure (p<0.001) and flexural strength (p<0.05) a little higher. 3. Shear bond strength to dentin was higher on HEMA containing composites than TEGDMA containing composites (p<0.001). 4. Water absorption was higher on HEMA containing composites than TEGDMA containing composites (p<0.01).

고분자 물질의 지속적 사용으로 인해 폐기물 증가와 환경 문제가 심각해지고 있다. 이에 따라 친환경 고분자에 대한 관심이 급증하고 있으며, 특히 생분해성 고분자는 식품 포장재 등 다양한 분야에서 항균성 고분자로 활발히 연구되고 있다. 최근 COVID-19 팬데믹으로 인해 항균성 물질에 대한 중요성이 더욱 부각되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 poly-butylene adipate terephthalate (PBAT)와 zinc pyrithione (ZnPt)을 항균성 고분자로 제작하여 그 항균 특성을 탁도 분석법, 진탕 배양법, 필름 밀착법으로 분석하였다. ZnPt%(w/w) 함량별(0, 0.1, 0.3, 그리고 0.5) 복합체를 Escherichia coli (E. coli)와 Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)에 대하여 항균 활성을 확인한 결과, 0.1%(w/w)의 적은 함량에서도 그람 양성균(S. aureus)과 그람 음성균(E. coli) 에서 높은 항균 활성을 나타내었다. 0.3%(w/w) 이상의 시료에서는 99.999% 이상의 높은 항균 특성을 나타내었다. 각 복합체의 파단면을 Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) 분석을 통해 ZnPt가 1-4 ㎛의 크기로 표면에 고르게 분포된 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 복합체 표면과 접촉한 후의 균 액을 고정하여 FE-SEM으로 분석한 결과, E. coli 와 S. aureus 균의 세포벽 파괴 효과가 명확하게 관찰되었다. 항균성 생분해 고분자로서 PBAT와 ZnPt 복합체는 식품 포장재 등 다양한 분야에서 유망하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Ceramic-polymer composites have been investigated for their suitability as embedded capacitor materials because they combine the processing ability of polymers with the desired dielectric properties of ceramics. This paper discusses the dielectric properties of the ceramic ($BaTiO_3$)-polymer (Epoxy) composition as a function of ceramic particle size at a ceramic loading of 40 vol%. The dielectric constant of these ceramic-polymer composites increases as the powder size decreases. Results show that ceramic-polymer composites have a high dielectric constant associated with the $BaTiO_3$ powder with a 200 nm particle size, high insulation resistance, high breakdown voltage (> 22 KV/mm), and low dielectric loss (0.018-0.024) at 1 MHz.

Two sheets of high strength cement paste using ordinary Portland cement and water soluble polymer (polyacrylamide) were made by kneading with a twin roll mill. A carbon fiber layer out between two sheet of the cement paste, and then carbon fiber reinforced high strength cement composites were prepared by pressing them. The mechanical properties of the composites were investigated through the observation of the microstructure and the application of fracture mechanics. When the carbon fiber was added with 0.2 and 0.3wt% to the composites the flexural strength and Young's modulus were about 110∼116MPa and 74∼77GPa respectively, and critical stress intensity was about 3.14MPam1/2. It can be considered that the strength improvement of high strength cement fiber composites may be due to the removal of macropores and the increase of various fracture toughness effects; grain bridging, frictional interlocking, polymer fibril bridging and fiber bridging.

Composites of ceramic powders and an elastomer-based matrix were prepared by mixing $CaCO_3$ powders with polyethylene and polypropylene elastomers, and their mechanical and sound insulation properties were measured. $CaCO_3$ powders with 0.7 ${\mu}m$ and 35 ${\mu}m$ particle size were added to elastomers up to 80 wt%. Scanning electron microscopy photographs showed uniform distribution of the $CaCO_3$ powders in the matrix. While density and surface hardness increased, melt index, tensile strength and elongation of the composites decreased as the amount of added $CaCO_3$ powders increased. As more $CaCO_3$ powders were added sound transmission loss of the composites increased owing to the increase of density. Addition of 0.7 ${\mu}m$ sized $CaCO_3$ powders resulted in a slightly higher transmission loss than the addition of 35 ${\mu}m$ sized powders because of the increased interface area between the elastomer matrix and the $CaCO_3$ powders. Composites with a polyethylene matrix showed higher transmission loss than those with a polypropylene matrix because the tensile strength and hardness of the polyethylene-based composites were low and their elongation was high.

Two NbCx-C1-x/Y2O3/Ti sputter-coated Al2O3 substrates (L 5.5 cm$\times$W 0.5 cm) were diffusion bonded together using hot press method at 95$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours under 1 MPa of applied pressure. 4 points bending tests were used to evaluate the mechanical performance of these precracked laminate beams. Two types of mechanical responses were observed: crack penetration through the interface for x=0.75, 1 and crack deflection into an interface for x=0.25, 0.5. The Al2O3/NbCx-C1-x/Y2O3/Ti system suggested here has been proves to be effective for the thermokinetical stability and tailorability of the interfaces of Al2O3/Ti composites at 95$0^{\circ}C$.

Phase equilibria in the system Si3N4-TiC-TiCxN1-x-C-N were determined by thermodynamic calculations (CALPHAD-method). The reaction peaction paths for Si3N4-TiC and SiC-TiC composites in the Ti-Si-C-n system were simulated at I bar N2-pressure and varying terpreatures. At a temperature of 1923 K two tie-triangles (TiC0.34N0.66+SiC+C and TiC0.13N0.87+SiC+Si3N4) and two 2-phase fieds (TiCxN1-x+SiC; 0.13
