초록

본 연구에서는 액상가압공정을 이용하여 탄소나노섬유(carbon nano fiber, CNF)를 강화재로 하는 AZ91 마그네슘 복합재를 제조하였다. CNF의 분산성 및 마그네슘 합금 용탕과의 젖음성을 향상시키고자 CNF를 마이크로 크기의 실리콘 카바이드 입자(silicon carbide particle, $SiC_p$)와 혼합하였다. 또한, CNF와 $SiC_p$의 혼합분말에 무전해도금법으로 니켈을 코팅하였다. 액상가압공정에서 AZ91 용탕은 무처리된 CNF, CNF와 $SiC_p$의 혼합분말(CNF+$SiC_p$), 니켈 코팅된 CNF와 $SiC_p$의 복합분말((CNF+$SiC_p$)/Ni)과 같이 세 종류의 강화재로 정수압에 의해 함침하여 복합재를 제조하였다. 무처리된 CNF 강화 복합재료에서는 일부 CNF 응집체가 관찰되었으나 CNF+$SiC_p$ 및 (CNF+$SiC_p$)/Ni 강화 복합재에서는 CNF가 기지재 내에 균일하게 분산되었음을 확인하였다. 압축시험결과, CNF+$SiC_p$ 및 (CNF+$SiC_p$)/Ni 강화 복합재의 압축강도가 무처리된 CNF 강화 복합재보다 각각 38%와 28% 향상되었다.

Carbon nano fibers (CNFs) reinforced magnesium alloy (AZ91) matrix composites have been fabricated by liquid pressing process. In order to improve the dispersibility of CNFs and the wettability with magnesium alloy melt, CNFs were mixed with submicron sized SiC particles ($SiC_p$). Also, the mixture of CNFs and $SiC_p$ were coated with Ni by electroless plating. In liquid pressing process, AZ91 melts have been pressed hydrostatically and infiltrated into three reinforcement preforms of only CNFs, the mixture of CNFs and $SiC_p$ (CNF+$SiC_p$), and Ni coated CNFs and $SiC_p$ ((CNF+$SiC_p$)/Ni). Some CNFs agglomerates were observed in only CNFs reinforced composite. In cases of the composites reinforce with CNF+$SiC_p$ and (CNF+$SiC_p$)/Ni, CNFs were dispersed homogeneously in the matrix, which resulted in the improvement of mechanical properties. The compressive strengths of CNF+$SiC_p$ and (CNF+$SiC_p$)/Ni reinforced composites were 38% and 28% higher than that of only CNFs composite.
