Graphene oxide can be reduced to graphene under supercritical fluid condition even without using a specific reducing agent or applying a high thermal process. In this study, a process for converting graphene oxide into graphene was studied under supercritical fluid conditions in methanol and ethanol solvents. When the structure of asprepared graphene was analyzed by using FE-SEM and XRD, the reduction of graphene oxide in supercritical fluid condition was more affected by the change of solvent than other variables such as concentration of graphene oxide and reaction time. The use of ethanol showed better results for the reduction than the use of methanol. The graphene prepared in this study was mixed with epoxy resin up to 20 wt.% to make composites, and the thermal conductivity of the composites were analyzed. Thermal conductivity of the composite increased proportionally with graphene loadings. The graphene prepared in supercritical ethanol condition was more effective on the thermal conductivity of the composite.

저차원계 탄소 동소체는 특유의 구조에서 기인하는 우수한 물리적 성질로 인해 각광받고 있는 물질이다. 탄소원자가 육각형 격자 모양을 지닌 2차원계 물질인 그래핀(graphene)은 뛰어난 전기적, 물리적, 광학적 성질로 인해 전계효과 트랜지스터(field effect transistors), 투명전극(transparent electrodes), 에너지 저장체, 복합체, 화학/바이오 센서 등 다양한 분야에서 활용을 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 또한 그래핀이 튜브형태로 말려있는 1차원계 물질인 탄소나노튜브(carbon nanotube)의 전기적, 열적, 기계적 성질은 이를 전계방출 디스플레이(field emission display), 전도성 플라스틱, 가스 저장체, 슈퍼 커패시터 등에 적용가능하게 한다. 최근 2차원계 물질인 그래핀과 1차원계 물질인 탄소나노튜브의 장점을 극대화하기 위한 복합 나노 구조에 대한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있는 추세이다[1-5]. 본 연구에서 그래핀-탄소나노튜브 혼성 구조의 제작은 다음과 같이 진행되었다. 우선 열 화학기상증착법(thermal chemical vapor deposition)을 이용하여 그래핀을 합성하였다. 합성된 그래핀은 메타크릴산메탈 수지(polymetylmethacrylate; PMMA)를 이용한 전사(transfer)방법을 이용하여 원하는 기판에 위치시키고, 직류 마그네트론 스퍼터링(DC magnetron sputtering)을 이용하여 탄소나노튜브의 합성을 위한 촉매층을 증착하였다. 이후 열 화학기상증착법을 이용하여 그래핀 위에 탄소나노튜브를 합성함으로써 그래핀-탄소나노튜브 혼성 구조를 제작하였다. 합성된 그래핀-탄소나노튜브의 구조적 특징은 주사 전자 현미경(scanning electron microscopy)을 통해 확인하였고, 촉매의 표면 형상 및 화학적 상태는 원자힘 현미경(atomic force microscopy)과 X선 광전자 분광법(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)을 통해 확인하였다. 또한 제작된 그래핀-탄소나노튜브의 전기적 특성 측정을 통해 나노전자소자로의 응용가능성을 조사하였다.

Polysulfone composites including graphene were prepared, and their thermal characteristics in membrane states were analyzed by using a custome-made residual stress analyzer and a thermal diffusivity analyzer based on laser flash method. The residual stress analysis was carried out on the polysulfone composite films deposited on Si (100) substrates for 1 cycle of heating and cooling runs. The flat membrane of graphene-embedded polysulfone composites were prepared by the phase transfer method in distilled water and the thermal conductivity was separately measured in the out-of-plane and the in-plane directions. The residual stress of the graphene-embedded polysulfone film was gradually decreased with increasing graphene loading and the out-of-plane thermal conductivity was distinguished from the in-plane thermal conductivity in the flat membranes. These thermal characteristics are caused by the structural uniqueness of graphene and the micro-void structures formed during membrane fabrication.

Polymer composites are materials in which various fillers are uniformly dispersed on the basis of organic resin. They have excellent processability and diversity for industrial products. Recently, as carbon nanomaterials are developed, there is a great deal of effort to use them as reinforcing fillers to fabricate high performance composite materials. In order to transfer the inherent properties of fillers into composite materials as much as possible, the good dispersion and orientation of fillers, and favorable interfacial interaction between fillers and matrix are considered to be very important. In this review article, we intent to derive and explain the relationship between surface chemical structure of fillers and physical properties of composites as a strategy of high strength and toughness of graphenebased polyimide composites.

Functionalized graphene/epoxy composites were prepared to miprove thermal conductivities of epoxy composites and to maintain electrical insulating property. Graphene oxide (GO) was prepared using Hummers method, and then GO was reacted with aluminum isopropoxide to functionalize $Al(OH)_3$ layer onto GO surface by a simple sol-gel method (Al-GO). GO and Al-GO were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The analyses confirm that GO was coated with a large and dense coverage of $Al(OH)_3$. GO and Al-GO (1 and 3 wt%) were embedded in bisphenol A (DGEBA) to investigate the effects of electrical insulating property. Electrical resistivity showed that Al-GO had better insulating property than GO. Further, the thermal conductivity of GO and Al-GO/epoxy composites was higher than that of neat epoxy resins. In particular, the thermal conductivity of Al-GO/bisphenol F (DGEBF) improved by 23.3% and Al-GO/DGEBA enhanced by 21.8% compared with pure epoxy resins.

Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) is a semi-crystalline engineering thermoplastic resin that has outstanding thermal stability, mechanical strength, inherent flame retardancy, chemical resistance, and electrical properties. Due to these outstanding properties, it is preferred as a matrix for composite materials. Many studies have been conducted to produce composites with carbon fibers and glass fibers to improve mechanical properties and provide functionality of PPS. In this review paper, we report a brief introduction to the fabrication and applications of PPS composites with carbon nanotubes, graphene, carbon fibers, and glass fibers.

In this study, oxidized graphene nanoplatelet(GO) was prepared by oxidizing graphene nanoplatelet(GNP) with nitric acid in order to solve the problem of dispersion of GNP, one of nano materials. The surface chemical composition of the prepared GO was analyzed by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR) before incorporation into the epoxy paint, and the dispersibility in the solvent was confirmed. Meanwhile, GNP/Epoxy and GO/Epoxy paint were prepared by mixing GNP, GO with 0.1, 0.3, 0.5 and 1.0wt.% in epoxy paint and the mechanical properties were evaluated. As a result, GNP/Epoxy and GO/Epoxy paints showed better mechanical properties than Neat Epoxy which did not incorporate GNP, GO. Especially, when 0.3wt.% of GO was incorporated into epoxy resin, it showed higher tensile strength than Neat Epoxy. It was confirmed that acid treatment of GNP was effective in improving the mechanical properties of epoxy paint.
