This paper investigates the impact of fiber dispersion on the internal structure and mechanical strength of SiC_f/SiC composites manufactured using spread SiC fibers. The fiber volume ratio of the specimen to which spread SiC fiber was applied decreased by 9%p compared to the non-spread specimen, and the resin slurry impregnated between the fibers more smoothly, resulting in minimal matrix porosity. In order to compare the fiber dispersion of each specimen, a method was proposed to quantify and evaluate the separation distance between fibers in composite materials. The results showed that the distance between fibers in the spread specimen increased by 2.23 ㎛ compared to the non-spread specimen, with a significant 42.6% increase in the distance between fiber surfaces. Furthermore, the 3pt bending test demonstrated a 49.3% higher flexural strength in the spread specimen, accompanied by a more uniform deviation in test data. These findings highlight the significant influence of SiC fiber dispersion on achieving uniform densification of the SiC_f/SiC matrix and increasing mechanical strength.

In this study, $SiO_2/poly(ethylene-co-vinyl$ alcohol)(EVOH) hybrid coating materials with gas barrier property could be produced using sol-gel method. The biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) substrate with surface pretreatment was coated with the prepared hybrid sols containing various inorganic silicate component by a spin coating method. Crystallization behavior of the hybrids was investigated in terms of analysis of X-ray diffraction and cooling thermogram from DSC experiment. From the morphological observation of the $SiO_2/EVOH$ hybrid gel, it was confirmed that there existed an optimum content of inorganic silicate precursor, Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), to produce hybrid materials with dense microstructure, exhibiting uniformly dispersed silica particles with average size below 100 nm. When TEOS was added at below or above the optimum content, particle clusters with large domain were observed, resulting in phase separation. This morphological result was found to be in good agreement with that of oxygen permeability of the hybrid coated films. In the case of film coated with hybrid prepared from addition of 0.01 - 0.02mol of TEOS, a remarkable improvement in barrier property could be obtained, however, with the addition of TEOS more than 0.04 mol, the barrier property was dramatically reduced because of phase separation and micro-crack formation on the film surface.

A porous stainless steel (SUS) as a substrate of silica composite membranes for hydrogen purification was used to improve mechanical strength of the membranes for industrial application. The SUS support was successfully modified by using submicron Ni powder, $SiO_2$ sols with particle size of 500 nm and 150 nm in turns. Silica top layer was coated on the modified supports under various preparation conditions such as calcination temperature, dipping time and repeating number of dipping-drying process. The calcination temperature for proper sintering was between H ttig temperature and Tamman temperature of the coating materials. Maximum hydrogen selectivity was investigated by changing dipping time. As repeating number of dipping-drying process increased, permeances of nitrogen and hydrogen were decreased and $H_2/N_2$ selectivity was increased due to the reduction of non-selective pinholes and mesopores. For the silica membrane prepared under optimized conditions, permeance of hydrogen was about $3\;{\times}\;10^{-5}\;cm^3{\cdot}cm^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}{\cdot}cmHg^{-1}$ combined with $H_2/N_2$ seletivity of about 20.

In this study, the non-contact type bicycle generator system considering the recharge is developed to use the eco-friendly energy source when the bicycle is operating. The following three main factors are considered in this study. One of factors is that the intensity of the rotating magnet is in the range of 2,700~4,300 [Gause]. The next factor is that the separation distance of rotating magnet and bicycle rim is in the range of 1.5-3.0 mm. The last factor is that the pedaling speed is in the range of 55 RPM [Wheel speed 5.6Km]~150 RPM [Wheel speed 15.25Km] consirering with the 5 staged gear transmission. The obtained results are as followed. (1) The generator output voltage gradually increases from 3V to 10V with the pedaling speed increases, at the separation distance is less than 2.5 mm and the operating voltage of the LED lamp is generated at a pedaling speed of 60 RPM or more. (2) The output current of the generator increases from 20mA to 40mA with the pedaling speed increases, at a separation distance is less than 2.0 mm and the operating current of the LED lamp is generated at a pedaling speed of 60 RPM or more. (3) When the separation distance was 3.0 mm, the output voltage and current are significantly lower than those of the bicycle LED lamp is generated. (4) The charging time is expected to be 12.24 ~ 17.65 hours when the magnitude of the magnet is 3,400[Gauss] at a pedaling speed of 55 RPM or more. (5) As a result of this study, it is thought that the non-contact type bicycle generator system considering the recharge can replace the conventional friction power generation system.
