The stealth technology can increase the survivability of aircrafts or warships and enhance the capability of mission completion in hostile territory. The purpose of this paper is to present the low observable structure with curved surfaces made by fiber-reinforced composites and to show the possibility of developing omnidirectional stealth platforms for military applications. In this study, we developed a radar absorbing structures(RAS) based on a circuit analog absorber to reduce the radar cross section(RCS) of an object with curved surfaces. Firstly, the RAS with a periodic square patterned conducting polymer layer was designed and simulated using a commercial 3-D electromagnetic field analysis program. Secondly, the designed semi-cylindrical structure with low RCS was fabricated using fiber-reinforced composites and conducting polymer. To make the periodic pattern layer, acts as resistive sheet, the intrinsic conducting polymer paste containing PEDOT with a polyurethane binder was used. Finally, the radar cross section was measured to evaluate the radar absorbing performances of the fabricated RAS by the compact range facility in POSTECH.

The purpose of this paper is to develop a rational engineering conductive carbon filled composite through understanding of the effect of conductive carbon black. Polycabonate(PC), Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene copolymer(ABS) and PC/ABS resin were used as matrix of the conductive polymer composites. From the experimental results, PC filled with the fiber shaped carbon black showed a possibility to be a rational engineering conductive composite.

Research interest has strongly focused on developing a method for effectively transmitting bio-signals over a distance using a wireless wearable device. In this paper, we describe a procedure for the design and fabrication of a wearable antenna based on embroidering conductive threads to clothing capable of transmitting electrocardiogram signals. 3D electromagnetic simulation software and embroidery software were used to design and fabricate the conductive thread-based antenna, respectively. The measurement results show that the reflection coefficient of the fabricated antenna prototype exhibits excellent antenna impedance matching characteristics of less than -10dB in the Zigbee 2.4GHz frequency band. We also verified that the electrocardiogram data could be effectively received and monitored in real-time by a receiver 220m away from the transmitter.

Poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF)는 우수한 화학적 특성을 갖는 불소계 고분자로서 엔지니어링 플라스틱, 압전성 소재 및 봉합사용 소재로 이용되고 있다. 최근에는 PVDF의 화학적 개질을 통하여 전도성 고분자나 탄소섬유화 등의 기능성 소재로 만들려는 연구가 흥미롭게 이루어지고 있다. PVDF를 알칼리 처리하여 주쇄에 공액이중결합을 도입함으로써 전도성 고분자용 소재 또는 접착력이 개선된 PVDF 소재를 만들 수 있다. (중략)

고분자연료전지(PEMFC)에서 기체확산층(GDL)은 다공성의 카본 종이/천 위에 마이크로한 다공층을 가치는 구조로 촉매층을 지지하고 촉매층과 분리판 사이의 전류전도체 역할을 한다. 또한 촉매층에 연료와 공기 확산 및 생성된 물의 통로 역할을 하며 소수성인 전기전도성 물질로 이루어져 있다. 현재 연료전지에 쓰이는 가스확산층은 대부분 국외 회사에서 제조 수입 사용하는 현황이고 국내에서는 협진 I&C가 연구하고 있으나 상용화는 아직 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구는 탄소섬유의 전도성을 개선하고자 탄소섬유 표면에 금속코팅 시 최적의 접촉계면유지를 위한 표면처리 방법 및 공정을 조사 분석 후 최적 개선방법(농도/온도/압력/시간)을 설정하고자 하였다. 또한 선정된 공정인자별 수준별 시험 후 샘플링 된 시료를 토대로 금속물질이 탄소섬유 표면에 코팅(도금)된 금속-탄소섬유를 대하여 평가하여 최적화시키고자 탄소섬유로부터 carbon paper GDL의 모재를 개발할 계획이다. 앞에서 설명한 바와 같이 탄소섬유를 이용하여 paper making, resin impregnation, molding, carbonization/graphitization의 제조공정을 거쳐 paper형태의 GDL을 생산 및 평가하고자 하였다.
