Mechanical and thermal analysis properties of carbon fiber/epoxy composite for train carbody were evaluated by varying with environmental factors such as ultraviolet, temperature, and moisture. Accelerated environmental aging tester was utilized for this study. Testing temperature was set to $80^{\circ}C$ and ultraviolet was obtained through xenon-arc lamp. To consider moisture, water sprayed on specimen for 18 minutes every 2 hour. All the specimens were made of CF1263/Epoxy composite. Mechanical properties such as tensile, bending, and shear properties were evaluated through a material testing system. Also, thermal analysis properties such as storage shear modulus, loss shear modulus, and tan ${\delta}$ were measured through dynamic mechanical analyzer. Finally surfaces of the composite exposed to environmental factors were examined using a scanning electron microscope. From experimental results, those properties of CF1263/Epoxy composite were shown to be slightly decreased due to environmental factors.

Composite bipolar plates offer several advantages of low cost, light weight, and ease of manufacturing compared to traditional graphite plate. However, it is difficult to achieve both high electrical conductivity and high flexural strength. In this study, the hybrid carbons filled epoxy composite bipolar plates were fabricated to test electrical conductivity and flexural properties. Graphite powders were used as the main conducting filler and continuous carbon fiber fabrics were inserted to improve the mechanical properties of the composite. This hybrid composite showed improved in-plane electrical conductivity and flexural property. The moldability of the hybrid composite was also improved comparing to the continuous prepreg composite. This study suggested that the continuous carbon fiber inserted graphite/epoxy composites can be a potential candidate material to overcome the disadvantages of conventional graphite composite or continuous prepreg composite bipolar plates.

This study aims to characterize the dynamic tensile strength of unidirectional carbon/epoxy composites. Two different carbon/epoxy composite systems, the unidirectional T700S/2500 and TR50S/modified epoxy, are tested at the static condition and the strain rate of $100\;s^{-1}$. A high-strain-rate test was performed using a tension-type split Hopkinson bar technique with a specific fixture for specimen. The experimental results demonstrated that both tensile strength increase with strain rate, while the fracture behaviors are quite different. By the use of the rosette analysis and the strain transformation equations, the strain rate effects of material principal directions on tensile strength are investigated. It is experimentally found that the shear strain rate produces the more significant contribution to strain rate effect on dynamic tensile strength. An empirical failure criterion for characterizing the dynamic tensile strength was proposed based on the Hash-in's failure criterion. Although the proposed criterion is just the empirical formula, it is in better agreement with the experimental data and quite simple.

This present study provides the structural design and analysis of main wing, horizontal tail and control surface of a small scale WIG (Wing-in-Ground Effect) craft which has been developed as a future high speed maritime transportation system of Korea. Weight saving as well as structural stability could be achieved by using the skin.spar.foam sandwich and carbon/epoxy composite material. Through sequential design modifications and numerical structural analysis using commercial FEM code PATRAN/NASTRAN, the final design structural features to meet the final design goal such as the system target weight, structural safety and stability were obtained. In addition, joint structures such as insert bolts for joining the wing with the fuselage and lugs for joining the control surface to the wing were designed by considering easy assembling as well as more than 20 years service life.

In this study, we investigated compressive characteristics of seawater-absorbed carbon-epoxy composite under hydrostatic pressure environment. The hydrostatic pressures applied were 0.1 MPa, 100 MPa, 200 MPa, and 270 MPa. The results showed that the compressive elastic modulus increased about 10 % as the hydrostatic pressure increased from 0.1 MPa to 200 MPa. The modulus increased 2.3 % more as the pressure increased to 270 MPa. Fracture strength and fracture strain increased with pressure in a linear fashion. Fracture strength increased 28 % and fracture strain increased 8.5 % as the hydrostatic pressure increased from 0.1 MPa to 270 MPa.

Materials, matrices mixed with various kinds of conductive or magnetic powder, such as ferrite, have been used as the electromagnetic wave absorbing ones, so called RAM(radar absorbing material). The structure that does not only have electromagnetic waves absorbing property like RAM but also supports loads is called RAS(radar absorbing structure). One of the existing manufacturing process of RAS is to compound with conductive powders the glass fiber-reinforced composite with good permeability and the ability to support loads. The process, however, causes a number of problems, such as the degradation in the mechanical properties of the composite, especially, interlamina shear strength. In this study, mechanical properties of glass fabric/epoxy composite containing 7wt% carbon black powders were measured and compared with pure glass fabric/epoxy composites.

지난 10년간 효율적인 방열 재료 개발을 위해 유망한 매트릭스로서 액정 에폭시 수지(Liquid crystalline epoxy, LCER)는 많은 주목을 받아 왔다. 본 연구에서는 LECR중에서 대표적인 4,4-diglycidyloxybiphenyl (DP) 에폭시를 이용한 고분자/SWCNT 복합체의 합성과 제조 및 특성 분석을 포함한 포괄적인 연구를 제시한다. 복합 재료의 열전도 특성을 확인해보기 위해 에폭시 수지와 충전제인 단일벽 탄소나노튜브(Single-wall carbon nanotube, SWCNT)로 구성된 복합체 샘플이 준비되었다. 특히 DP 복합체는, LCER의 고도로 정렬 된 미세 구조로 인해 동일한 필러를 사용하는 상업용 에폭시의 복합체에 비해 높은 열 전도성을 보였다. 또한, DP 복합체의 열전도도는 충전제의 양을 조절하여 제어할 수 있으며, 특히 SWCNT의 함량이 50 wt%인 DP 복합체는 열전도도는 2.008 W/mK로 가장 높은 열전도도를 나타내었다.

본 연구는 기존의 폐CFRP를 재활용하여 얻은 재생 탄소섬유를 다시 CFRP 제조에 활용하는 대신 탄소를 모재로 구성하는 탄소/탄소 (Carbon/Carbon, C/C) 복합소재를 제조하는 원료로 활용하기 위한 것이다. 먼저 일반적으로 많이 활용되는 에폭시수지 복합재료의 열분해 공정에 산화-불활성 분위기 변환 기술을 적용하여 1~2% 수준의 잔탄률을 19%까지 향상시켰으며, 이를 통해 에폭시수지 활용 C/C 복합재료 제조 가능성을 확인하였다. 다만, 산화-불활성 분위기 제어를 통한 열분해 공정으로 얻은 탄소의 경우 산소결합도가 높아 추후 개선 연구가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 폐CFRP를 열분해 열처리 후 파쇄 및 해쇄 공정을 통해 단섬유 C/C 복합재료 시험편을 제조하였으며 이에 대한 기계적 물성 평가를 통해 최적 공정 조건을 도출하였다.

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) produced by chemical vapor deposition were treated with acidic solution for purification and oxidization of CNTs. The surface modification of the oxidized CNTs was achieved by amine treatment and oxygen plasma treatment. The functionalized CNTs were embedded in the epoxy resin by sonication method and the resulting composite was investigated by FESEM. Rheological and mechanical properties of nanocomposites were measured by AR2000 and Instron. The rheological properties and dispersion of modified CNTs/epoxy composites were improved as CNTs were modified, because the modification of CNTs led to a improvement interaction between the CNTs and the epoxy resin. In addition to this, mechanical properties are also improved because of the effective stress transfer between the CNTs and the polymer.

In recents years, the statistical properties has become an important quantity for reliability based design of a component. The effects of the materials and test conditions for parameter estimation in residual strength degradation model are studied in carbon/epoxy laminate. It is shown that the correlation between the experimental results and the theoretical prediction on the fatigue life distribution using the life distribution convergence method is very reasonable.
