Block copolymer (BCP) self-assembly in a film geometry has recently been the focus of increased research interest due to their potential use as templates and scaffolds for the fabrication of nanostructured materials. The phase behavior in a thin film geometry that confines polymer chains to the interfaces will be influenced by the interfacial interactions at substrate/polymer and polymer/air and the commensurability between the equilibrium period (L0) of the BCP and the total film thickness. We investigated the phase transitions for the films of block copolymers (BCPs) on the modified surface, like the order-to-disorder transition (ODT) by in-situ grazing incidence small angle x-ray scattering (GISAXS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The selective interactions on the surface by a PS-grafted substrate provide the preferential interactions with the PS component of the block, while a random copolymer (PS-r-PMMA) grafted substrate do the balanced interfacial interactions on the surface. The thickness dependence of order-to-disorder behavior for BCP films will be discussed in terms of the surface interactions.

복합재료에 있어서 계면상호작용과 상계면은 이를 구성하고 있는 성분의 함량이나 형태 또는 구조와는 관계없이 입자가 충전된 고분자 또는 고분자 블렌드, 섬유강화 복합재료, 나노복합재료 그리고 생체재료 등의 기본적 물성에 매우 중요한 역할을 한다 계면접착에 영향을 미치는 주요 성분들의 역할에 대한 인식과 이에 따른 적절한 표면처리는 관련기술로의 적용뿐만 아니라 다른 여러 연구 및 개발 분야에도 중요한 기술적 진보를 가져다준다. 그러나 모든 복합재료에서 계면과 상계면의 역할이 중요할지라도 이러한 표면처리 방법은 특정 시스템의 특성뿐만 아니라 그 목적에 맞게 적절하게 선택되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 복합재료 시스템의 두 성분간의 계면상호작용을 향상시켜 최종 복합재료의 요구 물성을 증가시키기 위하여 여러 종류의 표면처리를 행하였으며, 그 결과들에 대하여 고찰하였다.

Mode interactions at Unstable fluid interfaces induced by a shock wave (Richtmyer-Meshkov Instability) are studied both analytically and numerically. The analytical approach is based on a potential flow model with source singularities in incompressible fluids of infinite density ratio. The potential flow model shows that a single bubble has a decaying growth rates at late time and an asymptotic constant radius. Bubble interactions, bubbles of different radii propagates with different velocities and the leading bubbles grow in size at the expense of their neighboring bubbles, are predicted by the potential flow model. This phenomenon is validated by full numerical simulations of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability in compressible fluids for initial multi-frequency perturbations on the unstable interface.

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been widely utilized as a versatile tool not only for imaging surfaces but also for understanding nano-scale interfacial phenomena. By measuring the responses of the photo detector due to bending and torsion of the cantilever, which are caused by the interactions between the probe and the sample surface, various interfacial phenomena and properties can be explored. One of the challenges faced by AFM researchers originates in the physics of measuring the small forces that act between the probe of a force sensing cantilever and the sample. To understand the interactions between the probe and the sample quantitatively, the force calibration is essential. In this work, the procedures used to calibrate AFM instrumentation for nano-scale force measurement in normal and lateral directions are reviewed.

각기 다른 온도에서 불소화 표면처리에 의한 실리카의 표면특성을 X-선 광전 분광법 그리고 접촉각을 통해 관찰하였으며, 복합재료의 기계적 계면물성과 열안정성에 미치는 영향은 인열 에너지와 분해 활성화 에너지를 통해 고찰하였다. 실리카 표면 자유 에너지의 London 비극성 요소와 불소작용기는 불소화 처리 온도에 따라 증가하였으며, 결과적으로 실리카/폴리우레탄 복합재료의 인열 에너지를 향상시켰다. 또한 복합재료의 열안정성은 불소화 함량에 따라 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 실리카 표면에 도입된 불소작용기가 본 실험의 복합재료 시스템 내에서 실리카와 폴리우레탄 계면 사이의 분자간 상호작용을 향상시키는 주요한 인자로 작용한 것으로 사료된다.

The effect of electrochemical surface treatments in KOH chemical solution on microstructures of carbon blacks was investigated in terms of surface functional values and XRD measurements. And their mechanical interfacial properties of the carbon blacks/rubber composites were studied by the composite tearing energy ($G_{IIIC}$). It was found that the development of basic-surface functional groups lead to the significant physical changes of carbon blacks, such as, decrease of the interlayer spacing ($d_{002}$), increase of the crystalline size along c-axis ($L_c$), and increase of degree of crystalline (${\chi}_c$). This treatment is possibly suitable for carbon blacks to be incorporated in a hydrocarbon rubber matrix, resulting in improving the hardness and tearing energy of the resulting composites.

Li-ion batteries have been gaining increasing importance, driven by the growing utilization of renewable energy and the expansion of electric vehicles. To meet market demands, it is essential to ensure high energy density and battery safety. All-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) have attracted significant attention as a potential solution. Among the advantages, they operate with an ion-conductive solid electrolyte instead of a liquid electrolyte therefore significantly reducing the risk of fire. In addition, by using high-capacity alternative electrode materials, ASSBs offer a promising opportunity to enhance energy density, making them highly desirable in the automotive and secondary battery industries. In ASSBs, Li metal can be used as the anode, providing a high theoretical capacity (3860 mAh/g). However, challenges related to the high interfacial resistance between Li metal and solid electrolytes and those concerning material degradation during charge-discharge cycles need to be addressed for the successful commercialization of ASSBs. This review introduces and discusses the interfacial reactions between Li metal and solid electrolytes, along with research cases aiming to improve these interactions. Additionally, future development directions in this field are explored.

A series of molecular dynamic (MD), finite element (FE) and ab initio simulations are carried out to establish suitable modeling schemes for the continuum-based analysis of aluminum matrix nanocomposites reinforced with carbon nanotubes (CNTs). From a comparison of the MD with FE models and inferences based on bond structures and electron distributions, we propose that the effective thickness of a CNT wall for its continuum representation should be related to the graphitic inter-planar spacing of 3.4${\AA}$. We also show that shell element representation of a CNT structure in the FE models properly simulated the carbon-carbon covalent bonding and long-range interactions in terms of the load-displacement behaviors. Estimation of the effective interfacial elastic properties by ab initio simulations showed that the in-plane interfacial bond strength is negligibly weaker than the normal counterpart due to the nature of the weak secondary bonding at the CNT-Al interface. Therefore, we suggest that a third-phase solid element representation of the CNT-Al interface in nanocomposites is not physically meaningful and that spring or bar element representation of the weak interfacial bonding would be more appropriate as in the cases of polymer matrix counterparts. The possibility of treating the interface as a simply contacted phase boundary is also discussed.

특성구조액체이론(significant structure theory of liquids)에 입각하여, 섞이지 않는 두 용융 고분자중에서의 계면장력을 예측하는 간단한 계산방법을 연구하였다. 접착에너지는 응집에너지들의 기하평균과 보정항의 곱으로 표시되며, 응집에너지는 고분자 사슬의 격자상을 가정하므로써 계산된다. 계면장력올 계산함에 있어서 고분자사슬의 구성요소간 분산력(dispersion force) 외에 극성력(poIar force)를 포함시켜야 함이 확인되었다.

The plane elasticity problem of collinear cracks in a layered medium is investigated. The medium is modeled as bonded structure constituted from a surface layer and a semi-infinite substrate. Along the bond line between the two dissimilar homegeneous constituents, it is assumed that as interfacial zone having the functionally graded, nonhomogeneous elastic modulus exists. The layered medium contains three collinear cracks, one in each constituent material oriented perpendicular to the nominal interfaces. The stiffness matrix formulation is utilized and a set of homogeneous conditions relevant to the given problem is readily satisfied. The proposed mixed boundary value problem is then represented in the form of a system of integral equations with Cauchy-type singular kernels. The stress intensity factors are defined from the crack-tip stress fields possessing the standard square-root singular behavior. The resulting values of stress intensity factors mainly address the interactions among the cracks for various crack sizes and material combinations.
