Polymer nanocomposite has been attracting more attention as a new insulation material because homogeneous dispersion of nano-sized inorganic fillers can improve various properties significantly. In this paper, various kinds of epoxy-based nanocomposites were made, and the AC breakdown strengths of Nano filler and micro-$SiO_2$ filler mixtures of epoxy-based composites were analyzed using sphere-to-sphere electrodes. Moreover, nano- and microfiller combinations were investigated as an approach to practical application of nanocomposite insulation materials. Its composition ratio was 100 (resin):82 (hardener):1.5 (accelerator). AC breakdown tests were performed at room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$), $80^{\circ}C$, and $100^{\circ}C$ in the vicinity of $T_g$ ($90^{\circ}C$). Thermal conductivity was measured using TC-30.

The Breakdown properties of epoxy composites are used for transformers and sensor, which has been studied. As a result, From the measurements of breakdown voltage, the more hardener is increased the stronger breakdown strength at low temperature because the ester of hardener is increased. Breakdown strength at the high temperature is decreased because the temperature at $110^{\circ}C$ is near at $T_g$. When the filler is added, between epoxy and silica is formed interface. Therefore the charge is accumulated in it, and the electric field is concentrated, and breakdown strength is decreased than non-filled specimens. In the case of specimens, the treated with silane, the breakdown strength becomes much higher since this is suggested that silane coupling agent has been improved chemical bonding in the interfaces and has been relaxed the electric filed concentration.

본 연구에서는 MWNT(Multi-walled carbon nanotube)의 응집크기와 복소유전율의 관계를 수치해석적인 방법을 통하여 접근하였다. 이를 위하여 3-roll-mill 장비를 사용하여 1 wt% MWNT가 첨가된 에폭시 시편을 제작하였다. 제작된 시편은 X-band(8.2~12.4 GHz)에서 네트워크 분석기와 자유공간 측정 장비를 이용하여 복소유전율을 측정하였다. 측정된 복소유전율과 복소유전율 혼합 모델을 이용하여 에폭시와 MWNT 응집으로 이루어진 해석모델의 유전율을 결정하였다. 해석 모델은 앞서 말한 것과 같이 에폭시와 MWNT의 응집으로 이루어져 있으며, 정육면체 에폭시 내에 구 형태의 MWNT 응집을 가정하였다. 이에 따라 에폭시와 MWNT의 부피비율은 고정되며, 변수는 응집의 크기로 한정하였다. 수치해석은 상용 전자기 해석프로그램인 CST를 사용하였다. CST로부터 모델의 S-parameter를 얻었고, 복소유전율은 Nicolson 방법을 사용하여 얻었다. MATLAB으로 코드를 만들어 S-parameter 로부터 복소유전율을 얻었다. 수치해석 결과 응집의 크기가 작아질수록 복소유전율 값이 높아지는 모습을 살펴볼 수 있었으며, 이는 나노 입자의 이용에 있어서 분산도는 기계적인 특성뿐 아니라 전자기적 특성인 복소유전율에도 영향을 미친다고 볼 수 있으며, 같은 나노 입자 함량에서 분산도가 좋을수록 높은 복소유전율을 기대할 수 있다.

유리섬유(GF) 강화 복합재료는 금속에 비해 경량화의 장점으로 인해 기체 부품 산업의 높은 성장률과 방산 산업의 발전으로 수요는 증가되고 있으며 제품의 형태를 다양하게 제작할 수 있는 RTM 공정으로 산업적으로 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 경화제의 분자량에 의한 가교 밀도 차이에 따라 변화되는 RTM의 성형성과 복합재료의 기계적 물성 및 계면 물성의 차이를 관찰하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 동일한 에폭시를 사용하였으며 유사한 화학 구조의 경화제를 이용하였다. 시편은 RTM 공법으로 제작하였으며 기지의 특성을 알아보기 위해 점도 측정 및 기지 주입시간을 측정하였다. 유리 섬유/에폭시 복합재료의 기계적 물성을 실험하여 굴곡 강도를 측정하였으며 계면 물성을 평가하기 위해 층간전단강도(ILSS)와 계면전단강도(IFSS)를 측정하였다. RTM 공정 시 기지의 점도에 의해 섬유의 함침정도에 따라 복합재료의 섬유 무게 분율(wt %)은 변화되고 이에 따라 유리섬유/에폭시 복합재료의 기계적 물성의 차이가 확인되었다.

본 논문은 저온과 고온 환경 하에서 카본/에폭시 복합재의 기계적 물성 변화를 평가하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 기계적 물성 변화 평가는 환경 챔버와 전기로를 이용하여 $-40^{\circ}C$에서 $220^{\circ}C$까지의 온도에 대해 섬유방향과 섬유 직각방향의 인장 물성, 면내 전단 물성 그리고 층간전단강도에 대해 평가를 수행하였다. $-40^{\circ}C$ 저온환경에서의 기계적 물성은 상온에서의 물성보다 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. 섬유방향 물성은 온도가 증가함에 따라 물성저하가 서서히 발생하였으나, 섬유직각방향 물성, 면내전단 물성 그리고 층간전단강도는 $140^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 수지의 유리전이로 인해 급격한 물성저하가 발생하는 것을 확인하였다. $100^{\circ}C$ 환경에서 섬유 직각방향 인장물성 증가의 직접적인 원인은 수지의 후경화로 인한 현상으로 판단된다.

Consumption of Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) has increased due to environmental pollution; therefore, the need for LNG carriers can efficiently transport large quantities of LNG, is increased. In various types of LNG Cargo Containment System (CCS), Membrane-type MARK-III composed of composite materials is generally employed in the construction of an LNG carrier. Among composite materials in a Mark-III system, glass-fiber composites act as a secondary barrier to prevent the inner hull structure from leakage of LNG when the primary barrier is damaged. Nevertheless, several cases of damage to the secondary barriers have been reported and if damage occurs, LNG can flow into the inner hull structure, causing a brittle fracture. To prevent those problems, this study conducted the applicability assessment of composite material manufactured by bonding glass-fiber and aluminum with epoxy resin and increasing layer from three-ply (triplex) to five-ply (pentaplex). Tensile tests were performed in five temperature points (25, -20, -70, -120, and -170℃) considering temperature gradient in CCS. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) analyses were carried out to evaluate the microstructure and thermos-mechanical properties of the pentaplex. The results showed epoxy resin and increasing layer number contributed to improving the mechanical properties over the whole temperature range.

The dielectric relaxation characteristics of composites with different concentrations of carbon nanotubes loaded in an epoxy polymer matrix has been studied as a function of frequency over a wide range (1 Hz~10 MHz) at room temperature. Two characterization techniques were used in this work to measure and calculate the dimensionality parameters: small angle neutron scattering and impedance spectroscopy. The results obtained from both methods are in good agreement, indicating the reliability of the estimated fractal dimension, despite of the difference in the length scales accessed by the two techniques.

Nondestructive damage sensing and load transferring mechanism of Ni nanowire strands and multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/epoxy composites were investigated using electro-micromechanical techniques. MWCNT composite was especially prepared for high volume contents, 50 vol % of reinforcement. Electro-micromechanical techniques were applied to measure apparent modulus and contact resistance of Ni nanocomposites with their alignment and different diameters, and adding contents. Applied cyclic load affected on apparent modulus and electrical properties on nanocomposites due to various inherent properties of each CNMs. Contact resistivity on humidity sensing was a good indicator for monitoring as for multifunctional applications. Further study on actuation as well as sensing will be investigated for the following work continuously.

Since the electromagnetic properties of fiber reinforced polymeric laminate composite can be tailored effectively by adjusting its composition and regulating the stacking sequence, it is plausible material for fabricating the radar absorbing structures (RAS) of desired performance. In order to design the effective electromagnetic wave (EM) absorber with the fiber reinforced polymeric laminate composite, its electromagnetic characteristics should be available and could be regulated easily in the target frequency bands. In this study, dielectric characteristics of the E-glass/epoxy laminate composites were measured by the free space method in the X-band frequency range ($8.2\;{\sim}\;12.4\;GHz$). In order to describe the dielectric behavior of laminate composites of arbitrary stacking sequences, the equivalent circuit model and the laminating equations for estimating dielectric properties were proposed, and experimentally verified. From the comparison of the predicted and measured data, the proposed method predicted well the experimentally measured data.

Bond stress between cast-in-place ductile fiber reinforced cementitious composites and CFRP plank were experimentally analyzed. As failure shape, the mixture of failure between CFRP plank and epoxy, and failure between concrete and epoxy was shown. In case of RFCON from the suggested simple bond slip relationship, the maximum average bond stress was 5.39MPa, the initial slope was 104.09MPa/mm, and the total slip length was 0.19mm. PPCON showed the maximum average bond stress of 4.31MPa, the initial slope of 126.67MPa/mm, and the total slip length of 0.26mm, while RFCON+ appeared to have 8.71MPa, 137.69MPa/mm, 0.16mm. PPCON+ had 6.19MPa maximum average bond stress, 121.56MPa/mm initial slope, and 0.34mm total slip length. To comprehend the behavior of composite structure of FRP and concrete, local bond slip relation is necessary, and thus a simple relation is suggested to be easily applied on hybrid composite system.
