탄소나노튜브는 역학적 물성이 뛰어날 뿐만 아니라 전기적 특성도 우수하여 현재 매우 많은 연구와 응용개발이 시도되고 있다 일반적으로 전기전도성 고분자 복합체를 얻기 위한 방법으로 카본블랙이나 전도성 섬유, 금속섬유, 전도성 분말 등을 고분자에 혼입하는 방법을 주로 이용하지만, 복합체 내에서 나노구조 형성이 가능한 탄소나노튜브를 이용하면 나노물질의 특성상 매우 유리한 점이 많다. 예를 들면, 우수한 전기특성, 낮은 임계농도, 우수한 역학적 성질 둥이다. (중략)

This study was carried out to test the antimicrobial activities of nano metal hybrid materials produced by plasma technologies (radio frequency-thermal plasma system and direct current sputtering system) against microbes isolated from cucurbit (watermelon, pumpkin, and gourd) seeds. Eight different nano metal hybrid materials and four carriers were tested against five different fungal and ten different bacterial isolates in vitro. Among the tested nano metal hybrid material, Brass/CaCO₃ (1,000 ppm) exhibited 100% antimicrobial effect against all the five tested fungi. However, nano metal hybrid material Brass/CaCO₃ (1,000 ppm) inhibited only four bacterial isolates, Weissella sp., Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Burkholderia sp., and Enterococcus sp. at 100% level, and did not inhibited other six bacterial isolates. Nano metal hybrid material graphite-nickel (G-Ni) showed 100% inhibition rate against Rhizopus stolonifer and 52.94-71.76% inhibition rate against four different fungal isolates. Nano metal hybrid material G-Ni did not show any inhibition effects against tested ten bacterial isolates. In summary, among the tested eight different nano metal hybrid materials and four carriers, Brass/CaCO₃ showed inhibition effects against five fungal isolates and four bacterial isolates, and G-Ni showed variable inhibition effects (52.94-100%) against five fungal isolates and did not show any inhibition effects against all the bacterial isolates.

유기물/무기물 나노 복합체를 이용하여 제작한 메모리 소자는 저전력 구동, 간단한 공정, 플렉서블한 성격과 같은 장점 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 다양한 유기물/무기물 나노 복합체를 이용한 비휘발성 메모리 소자에 대한 연구는 많이 진행되었으나, fullerene 계열의 [6,6]-phenyl-C85 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) 나노 입자와 poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA)의 나노 복합체를 사용하여 제작한 유기 쌍안정성 메모리 소자의 전기적 특성과 메커니즘에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서는 기억층으로 PMMA 박막 안에 분산되어 있는 PCBM 나노 입자를 트랩층으로 사용하는 메모리 소자를 제작하여 전기적 특성 및 안정성에 대하여 관찰하였다. 소자제작을 위하여 PCBM 나노 입자를 PMMA와 함께 용매인 클로로벤젠에 용해한 후에 초음파 교반기를 사용하여 두 물질을 고르게 섞었다. Indium-tin-oxide 가 코팅된 glass위에 PCBM 나노 입자와 PMMA가 섞인 나노 복합체를 스핀 방법으로 적층한 후, 열을 가해 클로로벤젠을 제거하여 PCBM 나노 입자가 PMMA 안에 분산되어 있는 전하 수송 층을 형성하였다. 형성된 전하수송 층 위에 열 증착 방식으로 상부 Al 전극을 형성하여 유기 쌍안정성 메모리 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 소자의 전류-전압 (I-V) 측정 결과 특정 전하 수송 층의 두께에서는 큰 ON/OFF 전류 비율을 보여준다. PMMA만을 사용한 소자에서는 I-V 메모리 특성이 나타나지 않는 결과로부터 PCBM 나노 입자가 전하 수송 층 내에서 메모리 특성의 역할을 한다는 것을 보여준다. 전류-시간 (I-t) 측정 결과로 소자의 ON/OFF 전류 비율이 시간이 지남에 따라 큰 감쇠 없이 104 s까지 103값을 지속적으로 유지되어 메모리 소자의 안정성을 보여주었다. 실험의 결과로 PCBM이 포함된 메모리 소자의 메커니즘과 전하 수송 층의 두께에 따른 메모리 특성을 설명하였다.

Cobalt sulfide nanocomposites were synthesized through a simple hydrothermal method as anode materials for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). In this work, a cobalt sulfide nanoparticle (CoS-NF) and a cobalt sulfide nanocomposite integrated with reduced graphene oxide (CoS@G-NC) were fabricated for electrochemical energy storage performance of battery. The as-prepared CoS@G-NC electrode exhibited reversible and stable cycle performance (62 % after 30 cycles at current density of 200 mA g^-1). The improved electrochemical property was attributed to the small grain growth and uniform distribution of cobalt sulfide during synthesis, which maximized the diffusion pathway for sodium ions and effectively suppressed the delamination and volume expansion of cobalt sulfide during the conversion reaction. The results provide promising anode materials for next-generation SIBs.

Montmorillonite (MMT) modified with siloxane diamine was reacted with a reactant obtained from 4,4'-diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI) and polyester type polyol, $Nippollan4010(\bar{M}_n2000)$. Finally, polyurethane (PU)/MMT composites were prepared by using 1,4-butane diol as a chain extender in $25\;wt\%$ solution of N,N-dimethyl acetamide (DMAc). It was expected that these nanocomposites had superior exfoliation property to that of MMT dispersed polyurethanes produced by simple mixing due to insertion of siloxane main chain to the silicate interlayer of MMT. Extent of reaction and formation of final products were analysed by using FT-IR spectroscopy. Dispersion into the PU and intercalation of MMT were identified by applying X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Tensile data were acquired by universal test machine (UTM). Thermal stability and variation of surface energy were characterized by thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) method and measurement of contact angle on the synthesized composites, respectively. As the results the organo-MMT modified with siloxane diamine in the PU composites has an intercalated structure relatively well-expanded rather than a completely exfoliated structure. The tensile strengths and the moduli for the PU/organo-MMT composites were drastically enhanced in comparison to those of $PU/Na^+-MMT$ composites.

Composite membranes consisting of TiO₂ nanoparticles (NPs) and porous polymers have been widely utilized in photocatalytic water treatment because the composite membranes can allow an easy recovery of NPs after the photocatalytic reaction as well as the reduction of fouling in the membrane. However, the photocatalytic efficiency of the immobilized TiO₂ NPs in the composite membranes has been discussed to a limited degree. In this study, we prepared polyethersulfone (PES)/TiO₂ composite membranes to study the photocatalytic decomposition of organic dyes under light illumination. The decomposition kinetics of dye molecules by the PES/TiO₂ composite membranes and colloidal TiO₂ NPs have been compared to discuss the photocatalytic efficiency of NPs before and after their immobilization on the polymer membrane.

Recently, supercritical fluid process has been widely used in material synthesis and processing due to their remarkable properties such as high diffusivity, low viscosity, and low surface tension. Supercritical carbon dioxide is the most attractive solvent owing to their characteristics including non-toxic, non-flammable, chemically inert, and also it has moderate critical temperature and critical pressure. In addition, supercritical carbon dioxide would dissolve many small organic molecules and most polymers. In this study, we have prepared the poly (ethylene oxide)/clay nanocomposites using supercritical fluid as a carbon dioxide. Commercialized Cloisites-15A and Cloisites-30B used in this study, which are modified with quaternary ammonium salts. The nanocomposites of polymer/clay were characterized by XRD, TGA and DSC. Poly (ethylene oxide)/clay nanocomposites by supercritical fluid show higher thermal stability than nanocomposites prepared by melt process. In addition, supercritical fluid process would be increased dispersibility of the nanoclay in the matrix.

실리카 지지체 위에 은 (silver) 나노 입자를 부착시키는 방법으로는 지지체 표면을 먼저 은입자와 친화성이 큰 amino(-NH2), mercapto(-SH), cyan(-CN) 등의 관능기로 표면처리 하는 방법이 일반적으로 사용된다. 구체적으로 설명하면 첫 단계로 지지체인 실리카입자의 표면을 아민으로 표면 처리 한다. 실리카 입자위에 부착된 아민관능기는 입자 생성의 단계에서 은 (silver) 나노 입자가 붙는 접촉점의 역할과 핵 생성 장소로서의 역할을 하게되고, 아민 관능기의 이런 역할로 실리카 입자 표면에 부착된 핵이 생장하여 입자가 됨으로써 최종적으로 은(silver) 나노 입자가 실리카 지지체위에 부착된 형태의 나노복합체가 형성된다. 분자량이 다른 PVP를 사용하여 제조한, NH2와 SH로 계면처리 된 은-실리카 나노복합체제조를 시도하였다. 사용되는 PVP의 분자량이 증가함에 따라 긴 고분자 사슬에 의하여 생성된 입체장애가 증가하게 되어, 은 핵의 성장에 대한 물리적 장벽이 증가하게 된다. 그러므로 고정화된 은 입자의 크기가 감소하게 된다. 이러한 형상은 NH2기 또는 SH기로 계면 처리된 실리카를 이용하여 제조된 은-실리카 나노복합체 입자들에서 모두 관찰되지만, SH기로 계면처리된 실리카를 사용할 경우 고정화된 은 입자의 수가 더욱 많고, 크기 역시 더욱 균일함을 알 수 있다.

Poly(methyl methauylate)/montmorillonite nanocomposites were incorporated into acrylic bone cement in order to improve the mechanical properties and reduce the exotherm of acrylic bone cement. The nanocomposites were prepared using a suspension polymerization and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, trans-mission electron microscopy, gel permeation chromatography, particle size analyzer and electron dispersive spectroscopy. The acrylic bone cements with poly (methyl methacrylate)/nanocomposite s were prepared and their thermal and mechanical properties were characterized. The prepared polymeric beads were composed of polymer-intercalated nanocomposites with partially exfoliated MMT layers, and the mean diameter of them was $50\~60$ fm with the spherical shape. The maximum setting temperature of the acrylic bone cements decreased from 98 to $81\~87^{circ}C$. The mechanical strengths and moduli of the acrylic bone cement with 0.1 $wt\%$ MMT were increased. compared to that without MMT. However, the mechanical properties were generally decreased with increasing incorporated MMT amounts. It is presumably due to the bubbles in nanocomposite beads generated during polymerization.
