Nanomaterials having large surface area, uniform dimensions or pores can be utilized in various membrane applications Amongst them, many studies have been focused on nanocarbon materials: graphene, graphene oxide and carbon nanotubes. Carbon nanotubes, one-dimensional structure, have excellent characteristics in thermal, chemical and mechanical strength properties. However, carbon nanotubes was mainly used to reinforce mechanical properties of polymer materials in previous applications. In contrast to previous studies, we focused on modified carbon nanotubes/polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) composite membrane preparation for improvement of permeability and selectivity on gas separation.

Polypropylene films reinforced with multi-walled carbon nanotubes and exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets were fabricated by extrusion, and the effects of filler type and take-up speed on the mechanical properties and microstructure of composite films were investigated. Differential scanning calorimetry revealed that the addition of carbon nanomaterials resulted in increased degree of crystallinity. However, increasing the take-up speed reduced the degree of crystallinity, which indicates that tension-induced orientations of polymer chains and carbon nanomaterials and the loss of degree of crystallinity due to rapid cooling at high take-up speeds act as competing mechanisms. These observations were in good agreement with tensile properties, which are governed by the degree of crystallinity, where the C-grade exfoliated graphite nanoplatelet with a surface area of $750m^2/g$ showed the greatest reinforcing effect among all types of carbon nanomaterials used. Scanning electron microscopy was employed to observe the carbon nanomaterial dispersion and orientation, respectively.

다이아몬드상 탄소 박막(Diamond-like carbon, DLC) 박막은 낮은 마찰 계수, 높은 내마모성, 화학적 안정성, 적외선 영역에서의 높은 투과율 등의 장점을 바탕으로 MEMS (Micro-Electro Mechanical System) 소자와 MMAs (Moving Mechanical Assemblies)의 고체윤활코팅, 마그네틱 미디어와 하드디스크의 슬라이딩 표면 등 다양한 분야에 코팅소재로써 응용되어왔다 [1,2]. 현재 전기철도용 집전판은 마찰이 적고 전도성을 지니는 카본 소재로 구성되어 있다. 그러나 그 마모 비율이 너무 심하여 이를 개선할 수 있는 방안으로 고경도 저마찰력을 지니는 DLC 박막을 코팅 소재로써 제안하고자 한다. 그러나 기존에 DLC 박막은 절연특성이 매우 우수하기 때문에 기존에 전도성을 지니는 카본 집전판에 적용하기에는 어려움이 따른다. 따라서 DLC 박막 내에 실리콘(Si) 또는 금속(Metal)을 첨가시키거나, 금속 중간층을 포함시켜 전기적으로 전도특성을 향상시키는 방안이 제시되고 있으며, 본 연구에서는 DLC 박막과 유사하게 우수한 경도특성을 지니고, 낮은 마찰계수등을 지니는 비정질 탄소박막을 연구하여 카본 집전판에 코팅하고자하며, 특히 비정질 탄소박막에 금속 Ti를 도핑하여 집전판과의 접착력과 전기적 전도 특성을 향상시키고자 한다. Ti가 도핑된 탄소박막(TiC) 박막은 비대칭 마그네트론 스퍼터링(unbalanced magnetron sputtering; UBMS) 시스템을 이용하여 제작하였으며, 스퍼터링 조건 중 기판에 인가되어지는 기판온도에 따라 변화되어지는 TiC 박막의 트라이볼로지(Tribology) 특성을 고찰하고자 하였다. 증착시 기판온도의 증가는 TiC 박막의 경도, 마찰계수 특성등 트라이볼로지 특성을 향상시켰으며, 전기적 전도 특성을 향상시켰다. 이러한 결과는 스퍼터링 방법에 의해 증착되어진 TiC 박막내에 존재하는 sp2 결합과 관계가 있음을 확인할 수 있으며, 트라이 볼로지 특성은 TiC 박막내에 sp2 탄소결합의 비율 증가와 관련되어졌다. 특히 sp2 탄소결합은 TiC 박막 증착시 증가된 기판온도와 밀접한 관계가 있으며 기판온도의 증가에 따라 나노결정 클러스터의 크기와 수의 변화와 밀접한 관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 결국 기판온도는 TiC 박막의 트라이볼로지 특성을 향상시켰으며, 전기적 특성 또한 향상시켜 전기철도 집전판에 응용을 위한 소재로 평가할 수 있다.

In this study, the failure modes and energy absorption characteristics of four different kinds of circular tubes made of carbon, glass, Kevlar and carbon-Kevlar hybrid fibres composites with epoxy resin have been evaluated. To achieve these goals, compressive tests were conducted for the tubes under 10mm/min loading speed. Based on the test results, the carbon/epoxy tube showed the best energy absorption capability, while carbon-Kevlar/epoxy tubes were worst. In the failure mode during crushing, both of the carbon/epoxy tubes and the glass/epoxy tubes were crushed by brittle fracturing mode. The Kevlar/epoxy tubes were collapsed by local buckling mode like steel, while the carbon-Kevlar hybrid tubes were collapsed by mixed mode of local buckling and lamina bending.

The development of new materials is an essential key for unraveling the environmental and energy problems all over the world. Among the various application materials in this area, crystalline and two-dimensional carbon materials have been studied from points of view such as electrical conductivity, chemical stability, and surface engineering due to the assembly of honeycomb and sp/sp² hybridization structure. Novel two-dimensional materials, including graphene and graphyne, have been continuously reported for several decades to develop in renewable energy fields. Also, various pristine/engineered two-dimensional carbon allotropes have been researched to combine metal nanoparticles in the form of a sphere, cubic, and so on. The renewable energy performance to apply for these materials is drastically increased. In this review, we introduce the research points of the 2D carbon allotrope materials, graphene and graphyne, and applications to improve the performance of renewable energy applications.

Carbon material was used for the new module-type bicycle accessory focusing on the user convenience through service design methodology. In the case of using the existing carbon material, the impact could not be endured while riding the bicycle and there was the case of breaking. To resolve this kind of problem, the new type of material (S Foam Core material) was applied. The intensity, twist intensity, shock absorbing power, and vibration were measured for the existing carbon material and the S Foam Core material. As a result, the S Foam Core material showed more outstanding results than the existing carbon material. This study produced prototype with the S Foam Core material to verify the performance through tests and report the result.
