CNT 보강 시멘트 페이스트의 침투 임계점은 자기감지 콘크리트의 감지 성능 극대화를 위한 최적 CNT 혼입량과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 하지만 침투임계점은 사용된 시멘트, CNT 그리고 물 시멘트 비에 따라 다양한 값을 가지며, 이를 얻기 위해서는 실험기반의 다수의 시행착오가 불가피하다. 이 연구는 CNT 보강 시멘트 페이스트의 침투 임계점 예측을 위한 침투 시뮬레이션 모델을 제안하였다. 제안된 모델은 CNT 그리고 시멘트 특성을 사용하여 CNT 혼입량에 따른 침투를 시뮬레이션할 수 있으며, 이를 위해 응집된 CNT 입자 수 개념이 사용되었다. 침투 시뮬레이션 과정은 미수화 시멘트 페이스트 모델 형성, CNT 랜덤분산, 그리고 침투 조사의 순서로 구성된다. 시뮬레이션에는 물 시멘트 비가 0.4-0.6인 CNT 보강 시멘트 페이스트가 사용되었으며, 시뮬레이션 된 침투 임계점은 문헌 결과 대비 최대 7.5 %의 시뮬레이션 잔차율로 높은 정확도를 보였다.

용융탄산염 연료전지(Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell) 메트릭스의 성형성 및 강도 증진을 위한 알루미나/${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 화이버 강화 매트릭스에 대하여 연구하였다. ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 입자에 10~30wt%의 화이버를 첨가한 슬러리를 테이프캐스팅 한 후 $650^{\circ}C$까지 열처리하여 두께가 500~600$\mu\textrm{m}$인 MCFC 매트릭스를 제조하였다. 화이버의 첨가량이 증가할수록 매트릭스의 기공율은 감소하였으나 입자크기가 대략 50$\mu\textrm{m}$인 ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 분체의 첨가비를 50wt%까지 증가시킴으로써 MCFC 매트릭스에 적합한 기공율(50~60%)을 얻을 수 있었다. 알루미나 화이버의 첨가량이 20wt% 이고 길이가 250$\mu\textrm{m}$이하인 화이버를 사용하였을 때 매트릭스내의 분산성 및 강도 증진 효과가 가장 우수하였다. 반면에 본 연구에서 제조한 ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 화이버를 이용한 강화 매트릭스의 강도(156 gf/$\textrm{mm}^2$)는 알루미나 화이버 강화 매트릭스에 비해 20~40% 정도 증진되었다. 또한 알루미나 화이버 강화 매트릭스는 용융탄산염에 의하여 부식되지만 ${\gamma}$-LiAlO2 화이버 강화 매트릭스는 전혀 부식되지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

Carbon rich fly ash was recently reported to have compositions that are ideal for use as a precursor and catalyst for carbon nanotube growth. This fly ash powder is mostly composed of pure carbon, predominantly present as sp². In this work, the effect of sonication time on the morphology and structural properties of carbon rich fly ash particles is reported. The obtained results show that ultrasound treatment is an effective tool for producing ultrafine particles/fragments with higher porosity, which might be suitable for the adsorption of gasses. Moreover, carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) of this fly ash were produced in parallel using the ball milling technique, and were evaluated as reinforcements for epoxy based composites. These CNPs have almost spherical shapes with particle sizes of around 30 nm. They were found to have strong C=O carbonyl group bonds, which might be generated during the ball milling process. The tensile testing results of a fly ash CNP reinforced epoxy composite showed significant improvements in the mechanical properties, mainly in the stiffness of the polymer. The stiffness value was increased by around 23% of that of neat epoxy. These CNPs with chemically active groups might also be useful for other applications.

The fabrication of $Al_2O_3/Al$ composites by pressureless infiltration technique was made to investigate the effects of processing variables such as content of Mg, processing temperature and time on the infiltration behavior of molten Al and microstructure. When the pure Al was infiltrated into mixtures of Mg and $Al_2O_3$ powder, processing temperature required to spontaneous infiltration was decreased and critical processing temperature and Mg content were $700^{\circ}C$ and 3wt% respectively. The content of Mg was found the most powerful variable for infiltration of molten Al. The infiltration ratio increased with Mg content and processing temperature, however the $Al_2O_3/Al$ composites which were fabricated by high Mg content and processing temperature resulted in non uniform dispersion of $Al_2O_3$ particles by excessive interfacial reaction. XRD pattern indicated that $MgAl_2O_4$ and AIN was observed at the interface of $Al_2O_3$ particles and in the Al matrix as reaction products.

The effects of additional Mg content, the size and volume fraction of reinforcement phase on the mechanical properties of ceramic particle reinforced aluminium matrix composites fabricated by pressureless metal infiltration process were investigated. The hardness of $SiC_p/AC8A$ composites increased gradually with an increase in the additive Mg content, while the bending strength of $SiC_p/AC8A$ composites increased with an increase in additive Mg content up to 5%. However, this decreased when the level of additive Mg content was greater than 5% due to the formation of coarse precipitates by excessive Mg reaction and an increase in the porosity level. The hardness and strength of the composites increased with decreasing the size of SiC particle. It was found that the composites with smaller particles enhanced the interfacial bonding than those with bigger particles from fractography of the composites. The hardness of $Al_2O_{3p}/AC8A$ composites increased gradually with an increase in the volume fraction, however, the bending strength of $Al_2O_{3p}/AC8A$ composites decreased when the volume fraction of alumina particle was greater than 40% owing to the high porosity level.

The purpose of this study is to improve the properties of epoxy resin using the big-sized titanium oxide nanoparticles. The effects of particle weight fraction and shape of sample on the thermal and mechanical properties in titanium oxide reinforced epoxy resin has been investigated. In addition, the effect of particle dispersion situation on the mechanical properties of nanocomposites has been studied. As a result, the Tg was almost same regardless of the content of nanoparticles. Storage modulus increased up to the content of 3wt% particles and then decreased. Tensile strength and modulus of film-shaped sample with 1wt% was higher than the one of pure epoxy, while other composites were not. The tensile strength of dogbone-shaped sample with 1wt% was only higher than the one of pure epoxy, while other composites were lower than the one of pure epoxy. Tensile modulus of dogbone-shaped samples increased with the content of particles.

Dental composite resin is a kind of the particle - reinforced composite material, and is widely used in recent dental restoration of anterior and posterior tooth region. The purpose of this study was to investigate the fracture behaviour according to volume fractions and external findings of the filler particles for better interpretation of the fracture characteristics of posterior dental composite resins by analytic method of fracture mechanics. The plane strain fracture toughness($K_{IC}$) and Acoustic Emission were determined with three - point bending test using the single edge notch specimen according to the ASTM - E399, and its analyzed data was compared with filler volume fractions derived from the standard ashing test and scanning electron fractographs of each specimen including the unfilled experimental resin as a control. The results were that the value of fracture toughness of the composite resin material was in the range from 0.85 MPa$\sqrt{m}$ to 1.60 MPa$\sqrt{m}$ and was higher than the value of the unfilled experimental resin, and the fracture behaviours dervied from Acoustic Emission analysis show prominent differences according to the volume fraction and the size of filler particles used in each composite resin. The degree of resistance against crack propagation seems to be increase and the fractographs demonstrate the high degree of surface roughness and irregularity according with the increase of fracture toughness value.

The development of sustainable composites materials, from recycled polymeric materials and waste from the wood industry and stone processing, allows reducing the volume of these by-products, minimizing impacts on health and the environment. Nowadays, Polypropylene (PP) is the most recycled polymer in industry, while the furniture industry has increasingly used timber felled from sustainable forest plantations as a eucalypt. The powder tailing from the ornamental stone extraction and processing industry is commonly disposed of in the environment without previous treatment. Thus, the technological option for the development of composite materials presents itself as a sustainable alternative for processing and manufacturing industries, enabling the development of new materials with special technical features. The results showed that powder granite particles may be incorporated into the polypropylene matrix associated with short eucalyptus fibres forming green hybrid composites with potential application in structural engineering, such as transport and civil construction industries.

The mechanical properties of $SiC_f/SiC$ composites reinforced with continuous SiC fiber have been investigated in conjunction with the detailed analysis of their microstructures. Especially, the effect of test temperature on the characterization of $SiC_f/SiC$ composites was examined. In this composite system, a braiding Hi-Nicalon SiC fibric was selected as a reinforcement. $SiC_f/SiC$ composites have been fabricated by the reaction sintering process, using the complex matrix slurry with a constant composition ratio of SiC and C particles. The characterization of $RS-SiC_f/SiC$ composites was investigated by means of SEM, EDS and three point bending test. Based on the mechanical property-microstructure correlation, the high temperature applicability of $RS-SiC_f/SiC$ composites was discussed.
