나일론66에 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(multi-walled carbon nano tube, MWCNT)를 1, 3, 5, 7 wt% 첨가하여 이축압출기(twin screw extruder)를 이용하여 나일론66/MWCNT 복합체를 제조하였다. MWCNT의 함량에 따른 열적특성, 분산성, 유변 학적 특성 및 충격특성을 DSC, TGA, X선 회절 분석기(XRD), 전자주사현미경(SEM), 동적유변측정기(ARES) 그리고 Izod 시험기를 이용하여 분석하였다. 나일론66에 MWCNT를 첨가할 때 나일론66의 비등온결정화에 영향을 주는 것을 DSC를 이용하여 확인하였다. 나일론66/MWCNT 복합체의 경우 낮은 전단속도 영역에서 복합점도 및 복합점도에 대 한 주파수 의존성을 나타내는 전단박하(shear thinning)가 증가하였으며, MWCNT 함량이 증가할수록 증가폭이 크게 나타났다. 또한 복합체의 G'-G" plot의 기울기가 감소하는 현상으로부터 탄성특성 증가를 확인하였다. 기계적 물성으 로 Izod 충격강도를 분석하였고, 3 wt% MWCNT가 첨가될 때 60%의 충격강도 개선을 확인하였다. SEM을 이용하여 나일론66내의 MWCNT의 분산성을 확인하였다.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have excellent electrical, chemical stability, mechanical and thermal properties. The MWCNT films were investigated as a transparent electrode for the solar cell, OLED, and field-emission display. MWCNT films were fabricated by air spray method, whose process is quite low-costed, using the multi-walled CNTs solution on glass substrates. Moreover, the most stable film was fabricated when the spraying time was 60 sec. The film that was sprayed with the MWCNT dispersion for 60 sec, has 300nm thick. And its electric resistivity, transmittance rate, mobility and carrier concentration are $6{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, 50% at ${\lambda}=550mm$, $4.3{\times}10^{-2}cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ and $2.1{\times}10^{21}cm^{-3}$, respectively. Also, absorption energy of MWCNT films show from 3.9 eV to 4.6 eV. Furthermore, we can use MWCNT films fabricated by the spray method for the transparent electrode.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have excellent electrical, chemical stability, mechanical and thermal properties. In this paper, networks of Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) materials were investigated as a resistive gas sensors for the $H_2$ gas detection. Sensor films were fabricated by the air spray method using the multi-walled CNTs dispersion solution on the glass substrates cured with plasma and nitrocellulose. Sensors were characterized by the resistance measurements in the self-fabricated oven in order to find the optimum detection properties for the hydrogen gas molecular. The sensitivity and the linearity of the MWVNT sensors using the glass substrate cured with plasma for the $H_2$ gas concentration of 0.06~0.6 ppm are 0.013~0.097%/sec and 0.131~0.959%FS, respectively. The MWCNT film was excellent in the response for the hydrogen gas moleculars and its reaction speed was very fast, which could be using as hydrogen gas sensor. The resistance of the fabricated sensors decreases when the sensors are exposed to $H_2$ gas.

다층벽탄소나노튜브(MWCNT)와 titanium(IV) butoxide(TNB) 그리고 silver nitrate($AgNO_3$)를 이용하여 졸-겔법으로 $MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체와 $Ag-MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체를 제조하였다. 복합체에서의 Ag의 분산 및 구조를 주사전자현미경(SEM)과 투과전자현미경(FE-TEM)으로 관찰하였다. X선 회절 분석기(XRD)를 이용하여 복합체의 패턴을 보았을 때 anatase 결정구조를 확인할 수 있었다. 에너지 분광 분석기(EDX)로 원소성분을 분석한 결과 주요 원소인 C, Ti, O 그리고 Ag가 확인되었다. $TiO_2$ 입자는 MWCNT에 균일하게 분산되었고, Ag 입자는 튜브 표면에 고정되었다. 또한 UV 조사 시간에 따른 메틸렌블루의 분해를 통하여 광촉매 활성평가를 하였다. $Ag-MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체는 $MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체보다 높은 광분해능을 보였다. Ag의 높은 전도성이 $MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체의 광활성을 향상 시킨다는 결과를 나타냈다.

Carbon nanotubes(CNT) have excellent electrical, chemical stability and mechanical properties. These can be used in a variety of fields. MWCNT are extremely sensitive for minute changes in the ambient gas, namely, their sensing properties varies greatly with the absorption of gas such as NOx and $H_2$. We investigate the electrical properties of CNTs and make a NOx gas sensor based on Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) materials. We obtained the NOx gas sensor of MWCNT based on P-type Si wafer that has the resistivity of $1.667{\times}10^{-1}[{\Omega}{\cdot}cm]$. We knew that the sensitivity of sensor decreased with increasing of NOx gas concentration. And the sensitivity of sensor shows the largest value at $20^{\circ}C$. The sensitivity of sensor decrease with increasing the temperature. Also absorption energy of NOx gas molecule on the MWCNT surface decreases with increasing concentration of NOx gas.

Zinc ethyl silicate coatings containing multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were prepared, to which we added spherical and flake shaped zinc particles. The anti-corrosive effects of MWCNTs and zinc shapes on the zinc ethyl silicate coated carbon steel was examined, using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and corrosion potential measurement. The results of EIS and corrosion potential measurement showed that the zinc ethyl silicate coated with flake shaped zinc particles and MWCNT showed lesser protection to corrosion. These outcomes were in agreement with previous results of corrosion potential and corrosion occurrence.

This paper presents a preliminary study on the pressure sensing characteristics of smart nano composites made of MWCNT (multi-walled carbon nanotube) to develop a novel pressure sensor. We fabricated the composite pressure sensor by using a solution casting process. Made of carbon smart nano composites, the sensor works by means of piezoresistivity under pressure. We built a signal processing system similar to a conventional strain gage system. The sensor voltage outputs during the experiment for the pressure sensor and the resistance changes of the MWCNT as well as the epoxy based on the smart nano composite under static pressure were fairly stable and showed quite consistent responses under lab level tests. We confirmed that the response time characteristics of MWCNT nano composites with epoxy were faster than the MWCNT/EPDM sensor under static loads.

Carbon nanotubes(CNT) has strength and chemical stability, greatly conductivity characteristics. In particular, MWCNT (multi-walled carbon nanotubes) show rapidly resistance sensitive for changes in the ambient gas, and therefore they are ideal materials to gas sensor. So, we fabricated NOx gas sensors structured MOS-FET using MWCNT (multi-walled carbon nanotubes) material. We investigate the change resistance of NOx gas sensors based on MOS-FET with ultra lean NOx gas concentrations absorption. And NOx gas sensors show sensitivity on the change of gate-source voltage ($V_{gs}=0[V]$ or $V_{gs}=3.5[V]$). The gas sensors show the increase of sensitivity with increasing the temperature (largest value at $40^{\circ}C$). On the other hand, the sensitivity of sensors decreased with increasing of NOx gas concentration. In addition, We obtained the adsorption energy($U_a$), $U_a$ = 0.06714[eV] at the NOx gas concentration of 8[ppm], $U_a$ = 0.06769[eV] at 16[ppm], $U_a$ = 0.06847[eV] at 24[ppm] and $U_a$ = 0.06842[eV] at 32[ppm], of NOx gas molecules concentration on the MWCNT gas sensors surface with using the Arrhenius plots. As a result, the saturation phenomena is occurred by NOx gas injection of concentration for 32[ppm].
