Separation technology combining adsorption and membrane is expected to be applied in many fields such as water treatment. In this fusion technique, a functional carbon membrane having a carbon whisker grown on the surface of the membrane was developed to inhibit membrane fouling, which is a problem in the membrane separation process. In this study, to elucidate the mechanism of manufacturing the functional carbon membrane, the membrane was pretreated with the polymer latex of each mixing ratio and the membrane was formed by the CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) method. The membrane was analyzed by scanning electron microscope (SEM), CHN analyzer (Elemental Analyzer), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). As a result, the diameter and density of carbon whiskers were higher in case of polyvinyl di-chloride (PVdC): polyvinyl chloride (PVC) = 4.5: 55. It seems possible to control the diameter and density of the carbon whiskers according to the hydrogen content of the polymer latex.

산업이 고도화되는 과정에서 에너지의 고효율화를 위하여 고온, 고압 등의 극한환경 하의 공정이 불가결하며, 이에 따라 초미세분진인 나노 입자가 증가되고 있다. 이에 따라 해당 나노의 입자 처리를 위하여 다양한 용도에서의 고온 필터가 산업적으로 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 디젤엔진 매연저감 후처리 장치, 소각로, 발전소 등의 미세 분진 포집 필터로서의 응용을 위해, 카본 파이버에 SiC 휘스커를 증착하는 실험을 진행하였다. 휘스커 증착 공정은 촉매없이 SiC 휘스커를 카본 파이버 위에 화학증착하였다. 휘스커 성장 시 증착 조건의 변화를 통하여 다양한 휘스커의 증착 형태 및 미세구조를 관찰하였다. 또한 높은 포집 효율 및 기체투과도를 갖추기 위해, 휘스커가 증착된 시편의 포집효율 및 기체투과도 향상을 위한 실험을 진행하였다. 해당 실험의 결과로, 증착된 필터는 70% 이상의 포집효율을 보이면서도 기체 투과도는 현재 상용화되어 있는 코디얼라이트보다 5배 이상 높았다. 또한 필터에 추가적인 SiC 침윤공정을 통하여 시편의 내산화성, 내마모성, 내열성 등의 특성이 향상됨을 확인하였다.

The Si3N4 composites reinforced with carbon-coated SiC whiskers were fabricated by hot-pressing at 180$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours to examine the effects of carbon-coated whiskers on the mechanical properties of SiC whisker reinforced Si3N4 composites. The flexural strength of the Si3N4 composites and Si3N4 monolith respectively. The weak interfacial bond between carbon-coated SiC whiskers and Si3N4 matrix which enhances the crack deflection and whisker pull-out could contribute to the improvement of mechanical properties of the composites.

The properties of AlN made by carbothermal reaction depend on the starting materials, quantity of liquid, the liquid-vapor phase reaction, the N$_2$ flow rate, and the reaction temperature. AlN whisker was synthesized by the VLS and VS methods. Solid ${\alpha}$-A1$_2$O$_3$(AES-11) was carbothermally reduced with carbon black in a high-purity N$_2$ atmosphere with AlF$_3$ to cause whisker grown and additional aluminum liquid to increase whisker yield. Aluminum nitride was perfectly formed at reaction temperatures of 1600$^{\circ}C$. At reaction temperature higher than 1600$^{\circ}C$ the aluminum nitride was completely formed, while the composition remains unaffected. Needle-shaped whiskers formed best at 1600$^{\circ}C$ while higher temperatures disrupted whisker formation. Adding 0 to 15 wt% aluminum to the synthesis favorably affects the microstructure for formation of needle-shaped AlN whisker. Additions over 15 wt% degraded formation of AlN whisker.

Alumina-coated SiC whiskers wee prepared by the calcination (1150$^{\circ}C$, 1h, Ar) of the alumina hydrate layer which was precipitated homogeneously on whisker surface from a solution of Al2(SO4)3 and urea as a precipitant. In addition carbon coated SiC whiskers were prepared by the pyrolysis (1000$^{\circ}C$, 4h Ar) of phenolic resin coated whisker. The effects of coating conditions on the thickness and morphology of the coated layers were examined by SEM and TEM. It was found that Al2O3-coating layers become thinner and more uniform with decreasing the Al2(SO4)3 concentration. Thin (0.075-0.1$\mu\textrm{m}$) and uniformly alumina-coating layers were obtained at the Al2(SO4)3 concentration 0.010mol/l. On the other han carbon-coating layers were uniform but very thin (5-16 nm) in thickness. For thicker carbon-coating layers ethanol as a disperse medium was found to be more efficient compared tousing acetone.
