무기계 난연제로 널리 사용되고 있는 aluminum trihydrate와 antimony trioxide의 첨가에 의한 열화거동과 난연효과를 열분석 및 화염특성시험(LOI test, flammabilty을 45 degree test)을 통하여 알아보았다. 일반 구조용 glass fiber/unsaturated polyester 복합재료 제조 시 난연 조성에 따른 난연 효과와 기계적 특성(경도, 인장강도, 탄성률) 변화를 조사하였다. 항공우주용 구조에 사용되는 난연 처리된 glass fiber/epoxy prepreg 복합재료 제조 시 공정조건에 따른 난연 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 실험결과를 이용하여 난연제의 난연 기구 및 기계적 물성을 고려한 최적 난연 조성은 ATH의 경우 10∼20 phr이였으며, autoclave 공정압력이 증가할수록 높은 LOI 값을 보였다.

Considering the properties of the carbon nano tubes (CNT), their inclusion into the polymer matrix vastly increases the properties of the resultant composite. However, this is not the case due to the poor interfacial adhesion of the CNT and the polymer matrix. The present approach focuses on increasing the interaction between the polymer matrix and the CNT through the chemical modification of the CNT resulting in allyl ester functionalized carbon nanotubes (ACNT) and silane functionalized carbon nano tubes (SCNT) which are capable of reacting with the polymer matrix during the curing reaction. The addition of ACNT/SCNT into unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) resulted in the improvement of the electrical properties of resulted nanocomposites in comparison to the CNT. The surface resistivity, volume resistivity, dielectric strength, dry arc resistivity, and the comparative tracking index of the nanocomposites were significantly improved in comparison to CNT. The chemical modification of CNT was confirmed via spectroscopy.

Automobile industry, along with the automobile steering system, is rapidly changing and developing. The constant velocity joint transmits power to the wheels of vehicles without changing their angular velocity based on the movement of the steering wheel. Moreover, it controls their movement to act as a buffer. In order to prevent the excessive increase in temperature caused by the movement of vehicles, boots are attached to the constant velocity joint and lubricant is injected into the boots. The boots maintain the lubrication and protect the constant velocity joint from sand, water, and so on. As the wheels of the vehicle rotate, the boots are acted upon by forces such as bending, compression, and tension. Additionally, self-contact occurs to boots. Therefore, their durability deteriorates over time. To prevent this problem, polychloroprene rubber was initially used however, it was replaced by thermoplastic polyester elastomers due to their excellent fatigue durability. In this study, the structural analysis of boots was conducted. The results showed the deformation patterns of the boots based on the translation and rotation of the constant velocity joint. Moreover, it confirmed the location that was vulnerable to deformation. This study can be used to potentially design high-quality constant velocity joint boots.

Bio-based polyester polyol was synthesized via esterification between azelaic acid and isosorbide. After esterification, bio-based polyurethanes were synthesized using polyester polyol, 1,3-propanediol as the chain extender, and 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, in mixing ratios of 1:1:1.5, 1:1:1.8, 1:1:2, and 1:1:2.3. The bio TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) samples were characterized by using FT-IR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy), TGA (Thermal Gravimetric Analysis), DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry), and GPC (Gel Permeation Chromatography). The mechanical properties (tensile stress and hardness) were obtained by using UTM, a Shore A tester, and a Taber abrasion tester. The viscoelastic properties were tested by an Rubber Processing Analyzer in dynamic strain sweep and dynamic frequency test modes. The chemical resistance was tested with methanol by using the swelling test method. Based on these results, the bio TPU synthesized with the ratio of 1:1:2.3, referred to as TPU 4, showed the highest thermal decomposition temperature, the largest molecular weight, and most compact matrix structure due to the highest ratio of the hard segment in the molecular structure. It also presented the highest tensile strength, the largest elongation, and the best viscoelastic properties among the different bio TPUs synthesized herein.

In the oil and gas industry, composite materials should exhibit high flexibility and strength for offshore structures. Therefore, weak points in the composites should be improved, such as brittleness, moisture penetration, and diffusion of detrimental ions into nanometric pores. This study aimed to increase the strength, flexibility, and plugging of nanopores using single-layer graphene oxide (SGO) nanosheets. Therefore, SGO is added to unsaturated polyester resin at concentrations of 0.015 and 0.15 % with Normal Methyl Pyrrolidone (NMP) as a solvent for the formation of Nanographene Oxide Reinforced Polymer (NGORP). The mechanical properties of the prepared samples were tested using tensile testing (ASTM-D 638). It has been shown that incorporating SGO, approximately 0.015%, into the base resin resulted in enhanced properties such as rupture resistance forces increased by 745.61 N, applied stress tolerances increased by 4.1 MPa, longitude increased to 1.58 mm, elongation increased by about 2.38%, and rupture energy increased by about 204.51 J. Despite the decrease in tensile force strength properties in the manufactured nanocomposite with 0.15% SGO, it has exclusive flexibility properties such as a high required energy level for rupture of 5,576 times and a formability of 40% more than the base sample. It would be best to use NGORP manufactured from 0.015% nanosheets with exclusive properties rather than base samples for constructing parts and equipment, such as rebars, composite sheets, and transmission pipes, on offshore platforms.

SMC 욕조 생산 시 발생하는 폐 FRP와 석재 가공공정에서 발생되는 석분슬러지를 재활용하기 위하여 불포화에스테르 매트릭스 수지에 분말 충전하여 복합재를 제조하였다. 또한 충전제와 매트릭스 간의 계면결합력을 향상시키기 위해 석분을 실란 커플링제 ${\gamma}$-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysiiane (${\gamma}$-MPS)로 전처리하여 복합재를 제조하고 기계적 물성 및 계면현상을 관찰하였다. 복합재의 굴곡탄성율은 석분함량이 10 wt%, 실란커플링제의 농도가 3 wt%일 때 가장 우수하였으며 석분 충전량이 증가함에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 복합재의 초기 열분해온도는 352~359$^{\circ}C$이었으며 이 온도에서 중량감소율은 약 3%로 충전제의 양에 관계없이 거의 일정한 경향을 보였다. ${\gamma}$-MPS 처리에 따른 복합재의 물성변화를 관찰한 결과 충전제와 매트릭스 수지간 계면결합력이 증진되어 물리 화학적으로 안정한 결합을 이루고 있고 pull out현상이 발생하지 않음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The effect of counterpart roughness on abrasive wear characteristics of side plate materials of FRP ship, which were composed of glass fiber and unsaturated polyester resin composites, were investigated at ambient temperature by pin-an-disc friction test. The friction coefficient, wear rate and cumulative wear volume of these materials against SiC abrasive paper were determined experimentally. The wear rate of these materials decreased rapidly with sliding distance and then maintained a constant value. It was increased as counterpart roughness was rougher in a wear test. The cumulative wear volume tended to increase nonlinearly with sliding distance and depended on applied load and sliding speed for these composites. It could be verified by SEM photograph of fracture surface that major failure mechanisms were overlapping layers, microcutting, deformation of resin, delamination, and cracking.

Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is a material whose mechanical properties change according to the phase separation of its unique internal microstructure and is therefore used in various industries. Use of TPU as composites helps in improving the desirable characteristics and properties in accordance with usage. Eco-friendly fillers one of the fillers are on the rise and those are mostly used for reinforcing role. Suberin, which can be extracted from cork, is the main component of cork. It is known to serve high damping property of elastomer composite. The original chemical structure of Suberin is an aliphatic polyester aggregate. In this research, Suberin is obtained after depolymerization into an oligomer having 2 or 3 ester bonds through alkaline hydrolysis. The extracted suberin was added to the matrix which is thermoplastic polyurethane as an eco-friendly filler for improving vibration damping property. As a result, when 10 wt% of suberin was added into thermoplastic polyurethane the existing trade-off relationship was overcome. And it is attained the elastic modulus and damping factor at room temperature improving 92 and 59%, respectively, compared to the original matrix. Those results are from the interaction between the microstructure of TPU and suberin.

본 논문에서는 종류가 다른 부직포가 삽입된 하이브리드 복합재료의 Mode I 층간파괴인성에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. Mode I 층간파괴인성값($J/m^2$)은 DCB실험에 의하여 얻어졌으며, 부직포를 삽입하지 않은 시편과 3종류의 부직포(8 $g/m^2$의 탄소부직포, 10 $g/m^2$의 유리부직포, 8 $g/m^2$의 폴리에스테르부직포)가 각각 삽입된 시험편에 대하여 실험을 수행하였다. 각 시험편들에 대한 Mode I 층간파괴인성값은 부직포를 삽입하지 않은 시편을 기준으로 탄소부직포를 삽입한 시편은 6.3% 감소하였고, 유리부직포를 삽입한 시편은 약 11.4% 감소한 반면 폴리에스테르부직포를 삽입한 시편은 약 69.4% 증가하였다. 폴리에스테르부직포는 탄소부직포에 비해 저렴하며 가볍고, Mode I 층간파괴인성값을 크게 증가시킴을 알 수 있었다.
