In an effort to predict the long term durability of carbon fiber/epoxy composites in a space environ-ment interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of the composites was measured as a function of 0.5 MeV electron radiation dosage. For the ILSS measurements a notch method (ASTM D3846) was used with and without side-supports. the supports were used to prevent peeling or bending during the test. The ILSS of both T300/ 5209 longitudinal composite system increases monotonically with radiation when the test is corried out without the support the ILSS of the composites increases initially but then decreases with further radiation. It is also observed that the ILSS of the unsupported case is much lower than that of the supported case. Measurement of epoxy modulus shows that the elastic modulus increases monotonically with radiation. But the breaking strength of the epoxy decreases with radiation. Electron Spectroscopy for Chemcal Analysis shows that the oxygen contents at both the pure epoxy surface and the composite fracture surface increase with radiation dose resulting in the increase of polarity at the interfacial region. This may be a supporting evidence for the increase in the ILSS of the composites.

The effects of ammonia-treated graphene oxide (GO) on composites based on epoxy resin were investigated. Ammonia solutions of different concentrations (14-28%) were used to modify GO. Nitrogen functional groups were introduced on the GO surfaces without significant structural changes. The ammonia-treated GO-based epoxy composites exhibited interesting changes in their mechanical properties related to the presence of nitrogen functional groups, particularly amine ($C-NH_2$) groups on the GO surfaces. The highest tensile and impact strength values were 42.1 MPa and 12.3 J/m, respectively, which were observed in an epoxy composite prepared with GO treated with a 28% ammonia solution. This improved tensile strength was 2.2 and 1.3 times higher than those of the neat epoxy and the non-treated GO-based epoxy composite, respectively. The amine groups on the GO ensure its participation in the cross-linking reaction of the epoxy resin under amine curing agent condition and enhance its interfacial bonding with the epoxy resin.

입자강화복합재료에 관한 연구는 오래 전부터 수행되어왔다. 최근 활발한 연구가 이루어지고 있는 나노복합재료도 역시 입자강화복합재료의 한 종류라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 섬유강화 복합재료의 모재로서 사용되어질 수 있는 다중벽탄소나노튜브/에폭시 복합재료를 제작하고 그 물성을 고찰하였다. 본 연구에서 정립한 제작 공정을 사용하여 제작 된 다중벽 탄소나노튜브/에폭시 복합재료의 인장 물성을 MWNT의 첨가량에 따라 고찰하였다 0.5wt%의 MWNT를 첨가 하였을 때, 인장강성은 19%, 인장강토에서는 12%의 증가를 보였다. 또한 경화시 발생하는 재응집 현상을 관찰하고, 기계적 물성을 더 높이 항상시키기 위해서는 이 현상을 억제해야 함을 확인하였다.

This study investigated the open hole tensile (OHT) properties of carbon fiber/epoxy composites and compared them to bolt joint tensile (BJT) properties. The net nominal modulus and strength (1376 MPa) were found to be higher than the gross nominal strength (1041 MPa), likely due to increasing hole size. The OHT and BJT specimens exhibited similar stiffness, as expected without bolt rotation causing secondary bending. OHT specimens experienced a sharp drop in stress indicating unstable crack propagation, delamination, and catastrophic failure. BJT specimens failed through shear out on the bolt side and bearing failure on the nut side, involving fiber kinking, matrix splitting, and delamination, resulting in lower strength compared to OHT specimens. The strength retention of carbon fiber/epoxy composites with open holes was 66%. Delamination initiation at the hole's edge caused a reduction in the stress concentration factor. Filling the hole with a bolt suppressed this relieving mechanism, leading to lower strength in BJT specimens compared to OHT specimens. Bolt joint efficiency was calculated as 15%. The reduction in strength in bolted joints was attributed to fiber-matrix splitting and delamination, aligning with Hart Smith's bolted joint efficiency diagram. These findings contribute to materials selection and structural reliability estimation for carbon fiber/epoxy composites. They highlight the behavior of open hole and bolt joint configurations under tensile loading, providing valuable insights for engineering applications.

근래에 와서 강화 플라스틱 복합재료의 생산과 함께 열경화성 수지 폐기물들의 양이 급격하게 증가하여 심각한 환경문제를 야기하고 있다. 우수한 기계적 물성을 지닌 유용한 열경화성 수지의 하나인 에폭시 수지는 열가소성 수지처럼 용융되거나 재 성형되지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 철도 차량용 탄소섬유 강화 에폭시 수지 복합재로부터 에폭시 수지를 분해하여 탄소섬유를 회수하는 일련의 실험을 수행하였다. 여러 분해공정들을 실험적으로 조사하여, 분해 효율과 회수되는 탄소섬유의 기계적 물성을 비교 검토하였다. 회수되는 탄소섬유가 서로 엉키는 것을 방지하기 위해서 각 복합재료 시편은 테플론 지지대로 고정시키고, 기계적인 교반을 가하지 않았다. 분해 생성물은 전자현미경(SEM), 기체 크로마토그라피 질량분석기(GC-MS) 및 만능재료시험기를 사용하여 분석하였다. 질산 수용액을 사용하는 분해 공정과 액상 및 기상 열분해 공정에서는 탄소섬유가 완전하게 회수되었다. 회수된 탄소섬유의 인장강도 감소율은 4% 미만으로 미미하였다.

Mode II interlaminar fracture behaviors of carbon fabric/epoxy composites, which are applicable to tilting train carbodies, was investigated by the ENF (End notched flexure) test. The specimens were made of CF3327 plain woven fabric with epoxy and a starter delamination at one end was made by inserting Teflon film with the thickness of 12.5$mu$m or 25.0$mu$m. The equation for mode II interlaminar fracture toughness was suggested based on the effective crack length from the compliance of load-displacement curve. Mode II interlaminar fracture toughness was evaluated for several types of the specimens. Also crack propagating behaviors and fracture surfaces were examined through an optical travelling scope and a scanning electron microscope.

Interfacial adhesion and nondestructive behavior of electrodeposited (ED) carbon fiber rein-forced composites were evaluated using electro-micromechanical techniques and acoustic emission (AE). The interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of the ED carbon fiber/epoxy composites was higher than that of the untreated fiber. This might be expected because of the possibility of chemical or hydrogen bonding in an electrically adsorbed polymeric interlayer. The logarithmic electrical resistivity of the untreated single-carbon fiber composite increased suddenly to infinity when fiber fracture occurred, whereas that of the ED composite increased relatively gradually to infinity. This behavior may arise from the retarded fracture time due to enhanced IFSS. In single- and ten-carbon fiber composites, the number of AE signals coming from interlayer failure of the ED carbon fiber composite was much larger than that of the untreated composite. As the number of the each first fiber fractures increased in the ten-carbon fiber composite, the electrical resistivity increased stepwise, and the slope of the logarithmic electrical resistance increased.

Aluminum oxide ($Al_2O_3$) nanofibers were treated thermally under an ammonia ($NH_3$) gas stream balanced by nitrogen to form a thin aluminum nitride (AlN) layer on the nanofibers, resulting in the enhancement of thermal conductivity of $Al_2O_3$/epoxy nanocomposites. The micro-structural and morphological properties of the $NH_3$-assisted thermally-treated $Al_2O_3$ nanofibers were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AEM), respectively. The surface characteristics and pore structures were observed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Zeta-potential and $N_2$/77 K isothermal adsorptions. From the results, the formation of AlN on $Al_2O_3$ nanofibers was confirmed by XRD and XPS. The thermal conductivity (TC) of the modified $Al_2O_3$ nanofibers/epoxy composites increased with increasing treated temperatures. On the other hand, the severely treated $Al_2O_3$/epoxy composites showed a decrease in TC, resulting from a decrease in the probability of heat-transfer networks between the filler and matrix in this system due to the aggregation of nanofiber fillers.

군사적 목적뿐만 아니라 상업적 목적에서도 레이더나 기타 전자파를 방출하는 기기들로부터 생성되는 전자파의 흡수 또는 차폐는 매우 중요한 일이다. 본 연구에서는 다른 유전적 성질을 가지는 복합재층을 배열하여 전자기파의 반사를 최소화하는 연구를 수행하였다. Glass fabric/epoxy에 전도성을 가지는 카본블랙 분체를 혼합한 복합재와 Carbon fabric/epoxy 복합재 대만 유전성질을 측정하였고, 이를 이용하여 X-band(8.2 GHz-l2.4GHz)에 대한 전자기파 반사의 최소화 구조를 구성하였다. 두께2.6mm의 다층 구조로 최대 30dB 이상의 반사 손실과 최대 흡수 주파수로부터 2GHz 주파수 대역에 걸쳐 10dB이상의 반사손실을 일으킬 수 있었다.
