Nondestructive damage sensing and mechanical properties for acid-treated carbon nanotube (CNT) and nanofiber (CNF)/epoxy composites were investigated using electro-micromechanical technique and acoustic emission (AE). Carbon black (CB) was used to compare to CNT and CNF. The results were compared to the untreated case. The fracture of carbon fiber was detected by nondestructive acoustic emission (AE) relating to electrical resistivity under double-matrix composites test. Sensing for fiber tension was performed by electro-pullout test under uniform cyclic strain. The sensitivity for fiber damage such as fiber fracture and fiber tension was the highest for CNT/epoxy composites. Reinforcing effect of CNT obtained from apparent modulus measurement was the highest in the same content. For surface treatment case, the damage sensitivity and reinforcing effect were higher than those of the untreated case. The results obtained from sensing fiber damage were correlated with the morphological observation of nano-scale structure using FE-SEM. The information on fiber damage and matrix deformation and reinforcing effect of carbon nanocomposites could be obtained from electrical resistivity measurement as a new concept of nondestructive evaluation.

Electro-micromechanical techniques were applied using four-probe method for carbon nanotube (CNT) or nanofiber (CNF)/epoxy composites with their content. Carbon black (CB) was used to compare with CNT and CNF. The fracture of carbon fiber was detected by nondestructive acoustic emission (AE) relating to electrical resistivity for double-matrix composites test. Sensing for fiber tension was performed by electro-pullout test under uniform cyclic strain. The sensitivity for fiber damage such as fiber fracture and fiber tension was the highest for CNT/epoxy composites, and in CB case they were the lowest compared with CNT and CNF. Reinforcing effect of CNT obtained from apparent modulus measurement was the highest in the same content. The results obtained from sensing fiber damage were correlated with the morphological observation of nano-scale structure using FE-SEM. The information on fiber damage and matrix deformation and reinforcing effect of carbon nanocomposites could be obtained from electrical resistivity measurement as a new concept of nondestructive evaluation.

탄소직포/탄소/SiC 복합재는 탄소직포/탄소 프로폼을 SiC의 유기전구체인 polycarbosilane에 다중함침 열처리하여 제조하였다. 더불어 탄소 섬유의 분율과 배열 형태가 다른 두 가지 종류의 저밀도 탄소/탄소 복합재 즉, 탄소직포($\thickapprox$55 vol%)/탄소 복합재와 chopped 탄소섬유($\thickapprox$40 vol%)/탄소 복합재를 $1700^{\circ}C$ 진공 분위기에서 용융 실리콘과 반응결합하여 고밀도의 탄소섬유/Si/SiC 복합재도 제조하였다. 이 반응 결합 공정 이전 각 밀도가 1.6g/$cm^3$인 탄소직포/탄소 복합재와 1.15g/$cm^3$인 chopped 탄소섬유/탄소 복합재는 반응결합 후 그 밀도가 각각 2.1g/$cm^3$로 증가하였다. 제조한 복합재는 전형적인 섬유강화 복합재의 파괴거동을 보였으며 반응결합 후 밀도와 stiffness 그리고 탄성 한계 강도 등은 모두 현저히 증가하였다. 3점 곡강도와 인장 시험으로 기계적 물성을 비교평가하였다. 탄소직포/탄소 복합재와 chopped 탄소섬유/탄소 복합재의 곡강도에 대한 인장 강도의 비는 약 1/3이었다. 탄소직포/Si/SiC 복합재의 밀도는 2.06g/$cm^3$, 최대 곡강도는 ~120 MPa, 탄성한계 응력은 ~80 MPa를 나타내었다.

Interfacial and microfailure properties of carbon liber/bismaleimide (BMI) composites were evaluated using both tensile fragmentation and compressive Broutman tests with acoustic emission (AE). Since BMI is rather difficult matrix to apply for the conventional fragmentation test because of its too low elongation and too brittle and high modulus properties, dual matrix composite system was applied. After carbon fiber/BMI composite was prepared for rod shape by controlling differing curing stage, composites rod was embedded in toughened epoxy as outer matrix. The typical microfailure modes including fiber break, matrix cracking, and interlayer failure were observed during tensile testing, whereas the diagonal slippage in fiber ends was observed during compressive test. On the other hand, AE amplitudes of BMI matrix fracture were higher than carbon fiber tincture under tensile test because BMI matrix has very brittle and high modulus. The waveform of signals coming from BMI matrix fractures was consistent with AE amplitude result under tensile tests.

$ZrO_2$-based composites reinforced with 6.5 vol.% of carbon foam, carbon fiber, and graphite were fabricated using spark plasma sintering, and characterized using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. Their thermal properties were also investigated. The microstructures of the reinforced composites showed that carbon fiber fully reacted with $ZrO_2$, whereas carbon foam and graphite did not. The carbothermal reaction of carbon fiber had a negative effect on the thermal properties of the reinforced $ZrO_2$ composites because of the formation of zirconium oxycarbide. Meanwhile, the addition of carbon foam had a positive effect, increasing the thermal conductivity from 2.86 to $3.38Wm^{-1}K^{-1}$ at $1,100^{\circ}C$. These findings suggest that the homogenous distribution and chemical stability of reinforcement material affect the thermal properties of $ZrO_2$-based composites.

본 연구에서는 팽창흑연/탄소섬유 혼합 보강 전도성 고분자 복합재료를 2단계 성형 공법으로 제조하였으며, 탄소섬유의 첨가가 전도성 고분자 복합재료의 전기적, 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 전도성 충진재들은 고분자 수지와 기계적으로 혼합되었으며 이를 통하여 복합재료가 전기적 특성을 가지도록 하였다. 팽창흑연은 입자 간 접촉 면적이 넓기 때문에 복합재료 내 전도성 네트워킹의 형성에 매우 유리하지만, 팽창흑연과 고분자 수지만을 사용하여 상기 공정으로 복합재료를 제조할 경우 우수한 기계적 강도를 얻기가 어렵다. 따라서 이를 보완하기 위하여 탄소섬유를 복합재료에 첨가하였으며 전기적 기계적 물성을 바탕으로 탄소섬유의 혼합 비율을 최적화하였다. 굽힘 강도는 탄소섬유의 충친 비율이 증가할수록 섬유에 의한 강화 효과에 의하여 증가 하지만, 32wt.% 이상에서는 오히려 감소하였다. 이는 여분의 탄소섬유들이 공극을 발생시켜 응력집중이 발생하기 때문으로 판단된다. 전기 전도도는 탄소섬유의 비율이 증가할수록 전도성 공백이 발생하고 팽창흑연의 전도성 네트워킹이 저해되기 때문에 계속 감소한다.

The mechanical properties of nano composites were evaluated for structural performance in order to enhance their applicability to the car and machine industrial fields. Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) and GFRP were manufactured by vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) process with good mechanical properties. Tensile test was conducted to obtain the process factor of each composite. Also, carbon nano fiber (CNF) was dispersed in the composites and the relationship between the mechanical property and the CNF fraction was compared. The tensile strength and stiffness of 0/90 laminated CFRP were the best. CFRP/CNF (0.5 wt.%) was confirmed to be an excellent material for its elasticity and tensile strength.

섬유체적비에 따라 복합재료의 기계적 열적 특성이 크게 달라지기 때문에, 복합재료 설계시 섬유체적비를 올바르게 측정하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 일반적으로 섬유체적비를 측정하는 여러 방법은 산화되지 않는 유리섬유나 세라믹섬유를 사용한 복합재료의 경우에는 적합하고 효율적이다. 하지만 산화현상이 있는 탄소섬유의 경우에는 산화 방법과 조건에 따라서 다른 결과를 가져오게 되며 그러므로 올바른 섬유체적비를 측정이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 Thermogravimetric analysis를 수행하여 산화되는 탄소섬유의 질량 감소량을 보정하여 탄소섬유 복합재료의 섬유체적비를 측정하였고 현미경 단면 이미지를 이용하여 그 결과를 검증하였다.

A manufacturing technology of carbon fiber composites with thermoplastic polymer pellets and continuous woven fiber was investigated using a compression molding process. To secure the impregnation of resin into the porosity of fabric the composite specimens were prepared with general injection-molding grade polypropylene pellets and low viscosity polycarbonate pellets. Tensile tests of polypropylene and polycarbonate composites were performed. Polycarbonate composites showed higher fracture strength than that of polypropylene composites because of the difference of matrix properties. However, the increase rate of strength was lower than that of polypropylene composites due to the difference of coherence between matrix and reinforcement. To investigate the effect of carbon fiber volume fraction on the fracture strength variation polypropylene composites with different volume fraction were compression molded and tensile tests were performed together. It was shown that the fracture strength of the polypropylene composites increased by 3.2, 5.4 and 6.9 times with the increase of carbon fabric volume fraction of 0.256, 0.367, and 0.480, respectively.

본 연구에서는 유리섬유, 탄소섬유 및 유리섬유-탄소섬유 복합재에 MWCNT층을 삽입하는 경우 복합재의 전자파차폐 물성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 유리섬유 복합재의 경우, $200mm{\times}200mm$ 면적에 0.1~0.2 g의 MWCNT를 도포했을 때 (1.8~3.6 ${\mu}m$ 두께) 전자파차폐효과가 현격히 증가함을 발견하였다. 아울러, 두개 이상의 MWCNT층을 삽입하는 경우, 이들을 분산배치 하는 것 보다는 복합재 중앙에 집중배치 하는 것이 더 효과적이었다. 반면, 탄소섬유 및 유리섬유-탄소섬유 복합재의 경우, MWCNT층이 전자파차폐효과에 영향을 미치지 않음을 알 수 있었다. MWCNT를 비롯한 탄소나노소재를 전자파차폐용 소재로 효과적으로 활용하기 위해서는, 탄소나노소재의 첨가에 의한 다양한 전자파차폐 메커니즘 간 상관관계를 이해하는 것이 중요하다.
