In order to enhance the thermal conductivity of poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS), boron nitride (BN) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were incorporated as the thermally conductive fillers. The amount of BN was increased from 0 to 100 phr (parts per hundred rubber) and the amount of CNTs was increased from 0 to 4 phr at a fixed amount of the boron nitride (100 phr). The thermal conductivity of the composites increased with an increasing concentration of BN, but the incorporation of CNTs had only a slight effect on the enhancement of thermal conductivity. Unexpectedly, the thermal degradation of the composites was accelerated by the addition of CNTs in 100 phr BN filled PDMS. Activation energy for thermal decomposition of the composites was calculated using the Horowitz-Metzger method. The curing behavior, electrical resistivity, and mechanical properties of PDMS filled with BN and CNTs were investigated.

In this study, we investigated the effect of BN (boron nitride) on the thermal and the electrical conductivity of composites. In case of epoxy/BN composites, the thermal conductivity was increased as the BN contents were increased. Epoxy/AgNP (Ag nanoparticle) nanocomposites exhibited a slight change of thermal conductivity and showed a electrical percolation threshold at 20 vol% of Ag nanoparticles. At the fixed Ag nanoparticle content below the electrical percolation threshold, increasing the amount of BN enhanced the electrical conductivity as well as thermal conductivity for the epoxy/AgNP/BN composites.

화학기상증착법(CVD; Chemical Vapor deposition)으로 h-BN을 증착하여 성장 시간에 따른 표면의 특성 및 결정성을 연구하였다. 암모니아 보레인(BH3NH3)을 보론 나이트라이드(Boron Nitride) 박막의 전구물질로 이용하였으며, $70{\sim}120^{\circ}C$로 열을 가하여 열분해하였다. $25{\mu}m$ 두께의 구리 기판을 챔버에 넣어서 Low pressure (~25 mTorr) 상태가 되도록 한다. 25 mTorr 이하의 압력에서 수소 가스 (0.2~1sccm)를 넣고 $20^{\circ}C$/min로 가열한 후 약 한 시간 후에 $990{\sim}1,000^{\circ}C$가 된다. 그 후 Cu foil의 표면을 부드럽게 하고, 산화막을 제거하기 위해 $990^{\circ}C$에서 40 분간 열처리(annealing)한다. 그 후 암모니아 보레인에서 분해된 보라진 가스(borazine; B3H6N3)로 h-BN을 합성한다. 성장 시간이 길수록 더 많은 부분이 보론 나이트라이드에 의해 덮인다는 것을 관찰하였고, 성장 시 주입하는 수소의 양(0.2~5 sccm)과 알곤(0~15 sccm)의 혼합 비율에 따라 보론 나이트라이드의 domain size가 변화함을 알 수 있었다. 그 각각의 차이를 주사 전자현미경(SEM; Scanning Electron Microscopy)을 통해 확인하고, 결정성을 라만 분광(Raman spectroscopy), 광전자 분광(XPS; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)으로 비교 분석하였다.

Boron carbide is lower in hardness than diamond or boron nitride but has a hardness of more than 30 GPa and is used for manufacturing tank armors and ammo shells due to its high hardness. It is also used as a neutron absorber due to its ability to absorb neutrons, which is increasing its use in nuclear power projects. Neutrons have no interaction with electrons and are known to pass through the material without interactions. Along with boron carbide, the atoms with high interaction with neutrons are hydrogen, and high hydrogen concentration polyesters and epoxy polymers including boron are used as materials for manufacturing products for nuclear power generation waste. In this paper, the surface of boron carbide is treated with iron oxide and tungsten to improve interaction between modified boron carbide and epoxy polymer. XRD and XPS were used to confirm that iron oxide and tungsten are well attached on the surface of boron carbide, respectively. The mechanical strength of the surface treated boron carbide was measured by a universal testing machine (UTM) and the dynamic characteristics of the cured product were observed by using a dynamic analyzer (DMA).

Bonded film을 형성시키기 위한 대표적인 고체윤활제들로는 이황화-몰리브데늄, 이황화-텅스텐(WS$_{2}$), 보론-나이트라이드(BN), 흑연(Graphite) 등을 들 수 있으며, 이들 고체윤활제를 표면에 효과적으로 부착시키기 위하여 사용되는 수지류는 페놀 및 에폭시계수지 등이 사용되고 있아. Bonded film의 마찰마모특성은 이와 간이 피막 내에 첨가된 고체윤활제 및 수지의 종류, 고체윤활 입자들의 크기 및 순도,그리고 이들 상호간의 배합비율 등에 의하여 크게 좌우되며, 아울러 피막 내에 소량으로 첨가될 수 있는 여러 가지 보조첨가제들에 의해서도 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 알려져 있다. 고체윤활제 성분들의 조성과 더불어, 재료표면의 물리화학적인 전처리 조건도 매우 중요한 요인이 될 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이와 같은 윤활피막내 고체윤활제들의 배합, 고체윤활피막의 표면전처리 방법들을 변화하고 이들에 따른 상기 고체윤활피막들의 마찰 및 마모 특성에 관하여 시험을 행하였다.

The variation of sheet resistance and the reduction of masking oxide thickness with the flow rate of nitrogen gas has been measured in Boron predeposition process with Planar Diffusion source, BN-975. At 900.deg. C, the sheet resistance varied as much as 75% when the nitrogen flow rate was changed from 0.4 liters/min to 2.0 liters/min. At 975.deg. C, however, only 12% of sheet resistance variation was observed under the same flow rate change. The reduction of masking oxide thickness at 975.deg. C for a 5 min predeposition was 600 nm when the nitrogen flow rate was 0.4 liters/min. When the flow rate incresased to 1.9 liters/min, however, only 100nm of masking oxide was consumed in a similar predeposition process.

고경도 및 내침식재료가 새로운 기계구조 및 기계 절삭공구재료로서 각광을 받고 있으며 질화붕소(BN)는 고융점, 고경도의 물리적 특성으로 다이아몬드 대체 물질로 주목되고 있다. 원하는 질화붕소의 합성을 위해서는 출발 원료와 합성법에 의존하는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 붕소 산화물과 환원제로써 활성 탄소를 출발 원료로 하였으며 치환제로써 질소를 사용하여 기상 반응로에서 질화붕소를 합성하였다. 합성된 시료는 XRD, SEM, PSA 등으로 물성을 측정하였고 합성 변수에 따라 순도의 차이를 보였으며, 본 연구를 통하여 최적의 합성 조건을 제시할 수 있었다.

BNNTs (Boron nitride nanotubes) is an analogue of CNTs (Carbon Nanotubes) in terms of lattice structure. In BNNTs, a boron atom forms sp2 hybridized bonding with three nitrogen atoms, and so does a nitrogen with three boron atoms in the honeycomb structure. Its innovative properties, such as high thermal conductivity, neutron shielding capability, superb oxidation resistance at $900^{\circ}C$, excellent chemical resistance, and superior mechanical properties are advantageous for a wide range of applications, especially for electric device packages, neutron shielding, protective coating materials, and functional composites. In this paper, boron nitride nanotube synthesis, properties and application are reviewed.
