Surface-modified silica holds considerable promise in the development of advanced materials for good mechanical properties and stability. In this work, the surface and mechanical interfacial properties of silicas treated with silane coupling agents, such as Y-methacryloxy propyl trimethoxy silane (MPS). Y-glycidoxy propyl trimethoxy silane (GPS), and Y-mercapto propyl trimethoxy silane (MCPS), are investigated. The effect of silane surface treatments of silica on the surface properties and surface energetics are studied in terms of surface functional values and contact angle measurements. And their mechanical interfacial properties of the silica/rubber composites are studied by the composite tearing energy ($G_{IIIC}$). As a result. the mechanical interfacial properties are improved in the case of silane-treated composites compared with untreated one. It reveals that the functional groups on silica surface by silane surface treatments play an important role in improving the degree of adhesion at interfaces in a silica-filled rubber system.

In this wort, the $Na^+-MMT$ has organically modified with silane intercalant to prepare the polymer/clay nanocomposites. The pH. X-ray diffraction (XRD), and contact angles were used to analyze the surface properties of clay and the exfoliation phenomenon of clay interlayer, The mechanical interfacial properties of epoxy/clay nanocomposites were investigated by three-point bending test. From the experimental results. the surface modification made by silane intercalant on clay surface leads to an increase of distance of silicate layers, surface acid value. and electron acceptor parameter of organoclay. The treatments are also necessary and useful for epoxy to intercalate into the interlayer by interacting of electron donor-accepter between basic epoxy and clay surface. The mechanical interfacial properties of the nanocomposites was improved by the presence of dispersed clay nanolayer containing low content of organoclay in comparison with the conventional, which increase the interfacial adhesion between dispersed clay and epoxy resins.

Interfacial evaluation of various combinations of both Flax and Hemp fibers/polypropylene were performed by using micromechanical test and nondestructive acoustic emission (AE). It can be because interfacial adhesion between the natural fiber surface and matrix plays an important role in controlling the overall mechanical properties of polymer composite materials by transferring the stress from the matrix to the fiber. It is necessary to characterize the interphase and the level of adhesion to understand the performance of the composites properly. Microfailure mechanism of single Flax fiber bundles were investigated using the combination of single fiber tensile test and nondestructive acoustic emission. Microfailure modes of the different natural fiber/polypropylene systems were observed using optical microscope and determined indirectly by AE and their FFT analysis.

Colloidal silica which has high surface area and excellent surface properties are chemically stable inorganic materials and used for various applications in industry. Silica sol was prepared from sodium silicate solution by acid neutralization method and ion exchange treatment to remove sodium ions.

폴리케톤 섬유는 제조 원료로 에틸렌과 일산화탄소를 사용하여 합성한 공중합체 물질로 생산에 필요한 비용을 크게 절약할 수 있다. 폴리케톤 섬유는 p-아라미드 섬유에 근접하는 고강도 고탄성을 가진 섬유로 우수한 내화학성을 가지며, 고무와의 계면접착이 우수하다는 특성을 가지고 있어 MRG(Mechanical Rubber Goods)용 보강재 및 타이어코드로의 사용에 대한 관심이 증대하고 있다. 그러나 폴리케톤 섬유의 생산 및 산업현장에서의 활용은 아직 적은 상태로 그 특성에 대한 연구가 미흡한 상태이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 폴리케톤 섬유의 기본적인 특성 분석을 하고, 폴리케톤 소재의 표면을 UV 조사와 인산을 이용한 산처리 방법을 이용하여 처리하고 표면처리에 따른 폴리케톤 섬유의 표면특성 및 물성특성을 분석하였다. UV 조사 처리시 에너지 변화와 산처리시의 pH조건 및 처리시간의 변화에 따른 표면의 미세구조를 SEM과 AFM 등을 이용하여 관찰한 결과, UV 에너지와 산처리 조건의 증가에 따라 표면요철이 증가를 보이다가 과도한 처리에 의하여 표면에 degradation이 발생하였다. 또한 UV 에너지 및 산처리 조건에 따른 열적, 화학적 그리고 물리적 특성의 변화를 분석하였다.

Many successful developments and microscopic studies have been made on the high quality insulating materials. However, a little attention have given to the macroscopic interface in HV(High Voltage) insulating systems. In this study, AC interfacial breakdown strength and V-t characteristic of the interface between Epoxy/EPDM(ethylene propylene diene terpolymer) are investigated. Electrode system is designed to reduce the charges from electrodes and to have the tangential potentials along the interface between Epoxy/EPDM by FEM(finite elements method). The AC breakdown strength is observed when HV is given to the interface. It is shown that AC interfacial breakdown strength is improved by increasing interfacial pressure and oiling. In particular, it was saturated at certain interfacial pressure level. V-t characteristic is able to extend to the life time of the interface between Epoxy/EPDM. Oiling also plays a good roll in prolongation of the life time.

최근 전자산업의 발전으로 차세대 디스플레이 소자로 산화물반도체가 주목받고 있다. 산화물 반도체는 저온공정, 높은 이동도 및 투과율을 가지기 때문에 이러한 공정이나 물성 측면에 있어 기존의 a-Si, LTPS 등을 대채할 만한 소자로서 연구가 활발이 이루어지고 있다. 특히 고해상도 및 고속구동이 진행됨에 따라 높은 이동도의 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 IGZO 산화물 반도체 박막트랜지스터의 이동도 개선을 위해 나노입자를 사용하였다. 게이트전극으로 사용된 Heaviliy doped P-type Si 기판위에 200 nm의 SiO2 절연층을 성장시킨 후, 채널로 작동하기 위한 IGZO 박막을 증착하기 전에 10~20 nm 크기의 니켈, 금 나노입자를 부착시켰다. 열처리 온도는 $350^{\circ}C$, 90분동안 진행하였고, 100 nm의 알루미늄 전극을 증착시켜 TFT 소자를 제작하였다. TFT 소자가 동작할 시, IGZO 박막 내부의 전자들은 게이트 전압으로 인해 하부로 이동하여 채널을 형성, 동시에 드레인 전압으로 인한 캐리어들의 움직임으로 인해 소자가 동작하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 채널이 형성되는 계면 부근에 전도성이 높은 금속 나노입자를 부착시켜 다수 캐리어인 전자가 채널을 통과할 때 전류흐름에 금속 나노입자들이 기여하여 전기적 특성의 변화에 어떠한 영향을 주는지 연구하였다. 반응시간을 조절하여 기판에 붙는 나노입자의 밀도 변화에 따른 특성과 다양한 크기(5, 10, 20 nm)를 갖는 금, 니켈 나노입자를 포함한 IGZO TFTs 소자를 제작하여 전달특성, 출력특성의 변화를 비교하였고, 실질적인 채널길이의 감소효율과 캐리어 이동도의 변화를 비교분석 하였다.

Various fluoride films were investigated for a gate insulator of thin film transistor application. Conventional oxide containing materials like $SiO_2\;Ta_2O_5\; and \; Al_2O_3$ exhibited high interface states which lead to an increased threshold voltage and poor stability of TFT. In this paper, we investigated gate insulators using a binary matrix system of fluoride such as $CaF_2,\; SrF_2\; MgF_2,\; and\; BaF_2$. These materials exhibited an improvement in lattice mismatch, interface state and electrical stability. MIM and MIS devices were employed for an electrical characterization and structural property examination. Among the various fluoride materials, $CaF_2$ film showed an excellent lattice mismatch of 5%, breakdown electric field higher than 1.2MV/cm and leakage current density of $10^{-7}A/cm^2$. MIS diode having $Ca_2$ film as an insulation layer exhibited the interface states as low as $1.58\times10^{11}cm^{-2}eV^{-1}$. This paper probes a possibility of new gate insulator materials for TFT applications.

PLZT 박막을 Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si 기판 위에 RF-마그네트론 스퍼터링방법으로 형성할 때 기판온도에 따른 PLZT 박막의 결정성과 전기적 특성 및 강유전 특성에 미치는 영향에 관하여 연구하였다. 하부전극 Pt와 PLZT 박막 사이에는 완충층으로 $TiO_2$를 사용하여 계면에서의 상호확산을 제어하면서 우수한 물성의 PLZT 박막을 얻고자 하였으며, 여러 기판온도에서 PLZT 박막을 증착한 후, 박막의 결정화를 위해 급속열처리법으로 $700^{\circ}C$로 후열처리하였다. 그 결과 기판온도 $400^{\circ}C$에서 증착한 PLZT 박막이 가장 우수한 특성을 나타내었으며, 이때의 잔류분극과 누설전류밀도는 각각 15.8 ${\mu}C/cm^2$, $5.4\times10^{-9}A/cm^2$ 이였다. 그러나 $500^{\circ}C$에서는 결정립 조대화현상이 나타나면서 잔류분극과 누설전류밀도는 9 ${\mu}C/cm^2$, $3.09\times10^{-7}A/cm^2$로 특성이 저하되었다.

Sensing and interfacial evaluation of Ni nanowire strands/polymer composites were investigated using Electro-micromechanical technique. Electro-micromechanical techniques can be used as sensing method for micro damage, loading, temperature of interfacial properties. Using Ni nanowire strands/silicone composites with different content, load sensing response of electrical contact resistivity was investigated under tensile and compression condition. The mechanical properties of Ni nanowire strands with different type/epoxy composites were measured using uniformed cyclic loading and tensile test. Ni nanowire strands/epoxy composites showed humidity and temperature sensing within limited ranges, 20 vol% reinforcement. Some new information on temperature and humidity sensing plus loading sensing of Ni nanowire strands/polymer composites could be obtained from the electrical resistance measurement as a new concept of the nondestructive interfacial evaluation.
