이 연구에서는 마이크로 그리드 패턴 표면을 갖는 탄소 분말이 첨가된 Poly-dimethylsiloxane (PDMS)를 사용하여 전기용량형 압력센서(Piezocapacitive Sensor)를 제작하였다. 탄소 분말과 그리드 패턴이 센서의 성능에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위해 탄소 분말의 농도와 그리드 패턴의 밀도를 달리하여 여러 개의 센서를 제작하였다. 센서의 작동 범위와 민감도를 척도로 센서의 성능을 비교하였다.

인공폐는 실제 폐의 기능을 대행하는 장치이며, 주요 기능은 정맥혈에서 이산화탄소를 제거하고 산소를 첨가하여 동맥혈화하여 개심수술시 신체의 모든 조직에 충분한 양의 동맥혈을 공급한다. 또한 체외순환 생명보조장치(ECLS 또는 ECMO)는 심한 호흡부전증에 일반적으로 이용되지만 미래의 폐 이식에 사용될 것이다. 현재 미세다고엉 폴리프로필렌 중공사를 사용하고 있는 막형 인공 폐는 두 가지 문제가 있다. 환자의 체계적인 항응고가 필요하며, 오랜 기간의 사용은 막을 통하여 혈액 쪽에서 가스 쪽으로 혈청 누출을 일으킨다. 본 연구는 미세다공성 폴리프로필렌(PP)막에 폴리디메틸실록산(PDMS)을 적충한 PP/PDMS막을 제조하고, 폴리프로필렌 막에서 유발하는 혈청 누출을 최소화하는 기술에 대하여 연구하였다. Lee-White법에 의한 whole blood의 혈전형성 실험 후 사용된 막의 기체 투과도는 PP막에서는 크게 저하되었지만, PP/PDMS막에서는 거의 동일하게 유지되었다. 그러므로 PP막에서 유발되는 혈청 누출을 PP/PDMS막에서는 해결할 수 있었다. 또한, PP/PDMS막에서는 이산화탄소의 기체토과율이 산소보다 11.5배였다.

In this study, we investigated the detection properties of piezoresistive carbon nanotubes/polydimethylsiloxane (CNT/PDMS) devices with porous structures under applied pressure. The device, having dimensions of 10 mm × 10 mm × 5 mm, was fabricated with a porosity of 74.5%. To fabricate piezoresistive CNT/PDMS devices, CNTs were added using two different methods. In the first method, the CNTs were mixed with PDMS before the fabrication of the porous structure, while in the second, the CNTs were coated after the fabrication of the porous structure. Various detection properties of the fabricated devices were examined at different applied pressures. The CNT-coated device exhibited stable outputs with lesser variation than the CNT-mixed device. Moreover, the CNT-coated device exhibited improved reaction properties. The response time of the CNT-coated device was 1 min, which was approximately about 20 times faster than that of the CNT-mixed device. Considering these properties, CNT-coated devices are more suitable for sensing devices. To verify the CNT-coated device as a real sensor, it was applied to the gripping sensor system. A multichannel sensor system was used to measure the pressure distribution of the gripping sensor system. Under various gripping conditions, this system successfully measured the distributed pressures and exhibited stable dynamic responses.

Poly(dimethyl siloxane)(PDMS, 실리콘 고무)의 열전도도 향상을 위하여 보론 나이트라이드과 탄소나노튜브를 열전도성 충전제로 사용하였다. 보론 나이트라이드의 함량은 0에서 100 phr로 증가시켰으며, 탄소나노튜브의 함량은 보론 나이트라이드의 함량을 100 phr로 고정시킨 상태에서 0에서 4 phr로 증가시켰다. 실리콘 고무 복합재료의 열전도도는 보론 나이트라이드 함량의 증가에 따라 증가하였으나, 탄소나노튜브를 추가로 첨가하더라도 열전도도 향상에 대한 효과는 미미하였다. 100 phr 함량의 보론 나이트라이드 함량에 탄소나노튜브를 충전 시 복합재료의 열분해가 가속화되는 예상치 못한 결과를 얻었다. 이를 해석하기 위하여 Horowitz-Metzger 방법을 이용하여 열분해 활성화 에너지를 계산하였다. 또한 보론 나이트라이드/탄소나노튜브가 충전된 실리콘 고무 복합재료의 경화거동, 전기저항 및 기계적 물성을 연구하였다.

This paper describes the fabrication methods of a carbon nanotube (CNT) filter and a microdialysis chip. A CNT filter can help perform dialysis on a microfluidic chip. In this study, a membrane type of a CNT filter is fabricated and located in a microfluidic chip. The filter plays a role of a dialysis membrane in a microfluidic chip. In the fabrication process of a CNT filter, individual CNTs are entangled each other by amide bonding that is catalyzed by 1-Ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS). The chemically treated CNTs are shaped to form a CNT filter using a PDMS film-mold and vacuum filtering. Then, the CNT filter is sandwiched between PDMS substrates, and they are bonded together using a thin layer of PDMS prepolymer as adhesive. The PDMS substrates are fabricated to have a microchannel by standard photo-lithography technique.

Tribological behaviors of the hard film on soft substrate system were explored using the hard thin film of diamond-like carbon (DLC) coated the soft polymer of polydimethysiloxane (PDMS). A DLC film with the Young's modulus of 100 GPa was coated on PDMS substrate with Young's modulus of 10 MPa using plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technique. The deposition time was varied from 10 sec to 10 min, resulting in nanoscale roughness of wrinkle patterns with the thickness of 20 nm to 510 nm, respectively, at a bias voltage of $400\;V_b$, working pressure 10 mTorr. Nanoscale wrinkle patterns with 20-100 nm in width and 10-30 nm height were formed on DLC coating due to the residual stress in compression and difference in Young's modulus. Nanoscale roughness effect on tribological behaviors was observed by performing a tribo-experiment using the ball-on-disk type tribometer with a steel ball of 6 mm in diameter at the sliding speed of 220 rpm, normal load of 1N and 25% humidity at ambient temperature of $25^{\circ}C$. Friction force were measured with respect to thickness change of coated DLC thin film on PDMS. It was found that with increases the thickness of DLC coating on PDMS, the coefficient of friction decreased by comparison to that of the uncoated PDMS. The wear tracks before and after tribo-test were analyzed using SEM and AFM.

The demand for energy is steadily rising because of rapid population growth and improvements in living standards. Consequently, extensive research is being conducted worldwide to enhance the energy supply. Transpiration power generation technology utilizes the vast availability of water, which encompasses more than 70% of the Earth's surface, offering the unique advantage of minimal temporal and spatial constraints over other forms of power generation. Various principles are involved in water-based energy harvesting. In this study, we focused on explaining the generation of energy through the streaming potential within the generator component. The generator was fabricated using sugar cubes, PDMS, carbon black, CTAB, and DI water. In addition, a straightforward and rapid manufacturing method for the generator was proposed. The PDMS generator developed in this study exhibits high performance with a voltage of 29.6 mV and a current of 8.29 µA and can generate power for over 40h. This study contributes to the future development of generators that can achieve high performance and long-term power generation.

The piezoelectric composite film of ferroelectric PZT ceramic ($PbZr_xTi_{1-x}O_3$) and polymer (PDMS, Polydimethylsiloxane) was prepared to improve the flexibility of piezoelectric material. The bar coating method was applied to fabricate flexible nanocomposite film with large surface area by low cost process. In the case of using metal electrode on the composite film, although there is no problem by bending process, the electrode is usually broken away from the film by stretching process. However, the well-attached, flexible CNT electrode on PZT/PDMS film improved flexibility, especially stretchability. PZT particles was usually settled down into polymer matrix due to gravity of the weighty particle, so to improve the dispersion of PZT powder in polymer matrix, small amount of additives (CNT powder, Carbon nanotube powder) was physically mixed with the matrix. By stretching the film, an output voltage of PZT(70 wt%)/PDMS with CNT (0.5 wt%) was measured.

This paper reports the resistance change of conductive carbon nanotube (CNT) thin-films according to the temperature variation. Resistance of conductive CNT thin-films intrinsically has good thermal sensitivity, but shows environmental dependency. In order to reduce environmental effects, we spin-coated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) on the conductive CNT thin-films. We observed that conductive CNT thin-films with a PDMS encapsulation layer showed little environmental dependency, but more linear and stable temperature dependencies. If proper encapsulation is provided, conductive CNT thin-films can be used for temperature sensor applications.
