Since crack detection for laminated composites in-service is effective to improve the structural reliability of laminated composites, it have been tried to detect cracks of laminated composites by various nondestructive methods. An electric potential method is one of the widely used approaches for detection of cracks for carbon fiber composites, since the electric potential method adopts the electric conductive carbon fibers as reinforcements and sensors and the adoption of carbon fibers as sensors does not bring strength reduction induced by embedding sensors into the structures such as optical fibers. However, the application of the electric method is limited only to electrically conductive composite materials. Recently, a piezoelectric method using piezoelectric characteristics of epoxy adhesives has been successfully developed for the adhesive joints because it can monitor continuously the damage of adhesively bonded structures without producing any defects. Polymeric materials for the matrix of composite materials have piezoelectric characteristics similarly to adhesive materials, and the fracture of composite materials should lead to the fracture of polymeric matrix. Therefore, it seems to be valid that the piezoelectric method can be applied to monitoring the damage of composite materials. In this research, therefore, the feasibility study of the damage monitoring for composite materials by piezoelectric method was conducted. Using carbon fiber epoxy composite and glass fiber composite, charge output signals were measured and analyzed during the static and fatigue tests, and the effect of fiber materials on the damage monitoring of composite materials by the piezoelectric method was investigated.

Fracture of uni-directional carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix composite is strongly dependent on the orientation of basal plane in graphite matrix when it is limited within matrix. The orientation of basal planes are vertically stacked to carbon fiber which results in the weakness for applied tensile or shear force in thermosetting resin derived-carbon matrix composite. Microtextural control of the matrix was tried through chemical interaction between metal carbides and furan resin derived-carbon matrix. SiC and TiO2 addition made the orientation disordered. However, porosity increased due to decomposition of SiC. Interfacial bonding could be controlled by TiO2 addition, but carbon fiber was considerably reacted with TiC during thermal treatment higher than 2$600^{\circ}C$. Therefore, it is desirable to control the thermal treatment temperature at which decomposition of SiC was not serious and TiC/C was not formed eutectoid.

탄소섬유 복합재료는 내열성 및 우수한 기계적 특성을 가지고 있는 우수한 재료이지만 가격이 비싼 결점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 높은 기계적 강도를 가지며, 가격이 비싸지 않은 재료의 개발을 위해 탄소섬유에 현무암 섬유를 첨가하여 하이브리드 복합재료를 제작하였다. 현무암 섬유의 함유 비율이 높아질수록 강도는 감소하였으며, 탄소의 강화재 비율이 80% 정도에서 CFRP와 유사한 강도를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 섬유 각각을 적층하여 복합재료를 제작하는 것 보다 섬유사를 혼합시켜 제작한 복합재료에서 더 우수한 기계적 특성을 얻을 수 있었다.

대량의 폐기물에 의한 환경오염, 세계 평균기온 상승에 의한 기후위기가 인류의 생존을 위협하는 수준에 이르고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 다양한 분야에서 관련 연구가 이루어지고 있으며 재료분야에서도 친환경적이며 탄소중립적인 소재를 개발하기 위한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄소섬유에 천연섬유를 조합함으로써 천연섬유의 장점인 친환경성과 탄소배출 저감을 달성하고자 하였다. 일반적으로 고강도와 저강도 소재를 조합할 경우 그 중간의 물성을 가지는 것으로 알려져 있지만, 본 연구에서는 일부 물성이 탄소섬유 복합재료의 물성을 초과하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이를 검증하기 위하여 탄소섬유복합재료와 탄소섬유/천연섬유 하이브리드 복합재료를 제조하고 다양한 기계적시험을 통하여 기계적 물성을 비교하고 우수한 물성을 보이는 시험에 대하여 강도향상 기구를 분석하였다. 시험결과 하이브리드 복합재료의 굽힘강도와 파괴인성치가 탄소섬유 복합재료에 비하여 우수하게 나타났으며 강도향상 기구를 규명하였다. 하이브리드 복합재료를 활용할 경우 더욱 우수한 강도의 구조물을 제작할 수 있을 뿐만아니라 환경오염 및 기후위기에도 도움이 될 것으로 예상된다.

본 연구에서는 탄소섬유의 표면처리에 따른 탄소섬유/폴리프로필렌 복합재료의 기계적 물성을 평가하였다. 탄소섬유와 폴리프로필렌 사이의 계면 결합력을 증가시키기 위해 실란 커플링제 처리와 플라즈마 처리 같은 탄소섬유의 표면처리를 실시하였다. XPS, SEM 그리고 단일섬유 인장강도 시험을 통해 표면 처리된 탄소섬유의 표면 특성을 분석하였으며, Short beam 전단시험을 통해 표면 처리에 따른 복합재료의 계면 전단 강도를 측정하였다. 실험 결과로부터 플라즈마 처리 시간에 따라 복합재료의 계면 전단 강도는 증가하였으며, 1 분 동안 플라즈마 처리 후 실란 커플링제 처리된 시편의 계면 전단 강도는 처리하지 않은 시편에 비해 48.7% 증가하였다.

In this paper we present the results of an analytical investigation on the existing concrete structures which are reinforced with carbon fiber grid. The carbon fiber grid and polymer mortar are utilized in the reinforcement of concrete column, beam, and tunnel lining. The physical and mechanical properties of the carbon fiber grid and polymer mortar were obtained experimentally and then used in the analytical investigation. In the analysis concrete structures are modeled with 3-D solid finite elements and the carbon fiber grid is modeled with space frame elements. Through the investigation reinforcing effect of carbon fiber grid on the existing concrete structures is confirmed.

Delamination crack detection is very important for improving the structural reliability of laminated composite structures. This requires real-time delamination detection technologies. For composite laminates that are reinforced with carbon fiber, an electrical potential method uses carbon fiber for reinforcements and sensors at the same time. The use of carbon fiber for sensors does not need to consider the strength reduction of smart structures induced by imbedding sensors into the structures. With carbon fiber reinforced (CF/) epoxy matrix composites, it had been proved that the delamination crack was detected experimentally. In the present study, therefore, similar experiments were conducted to prove the applicability of the method for delamination crack detection of CF/polyetherethereketone matrix composite laminates. Mode I and mode II delamination tests with artificial cracks were conducted, and three point bending tests without artificial cracks were conducted. This study experimentally proves the applicability of the method for detection of delamination cracks. CF/polyetherethereketone material has strong electric resistance anisotropy. For CF/polyetherethereketone matrix composites, a carbon fiber network is constructed, and the network is broken by propagation of delamination cracks. This causes a change in the electric resistance of CF/polyetherethereketone matrix composites. Using three point bending specimens, delamination cracks generated without artificial initial cracks is proved to be detectable using the electric potential method: This method successfully detected delamination cracks.

In the present study, exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets (xGnP) with different particle sizes were coated onto polyacrylonitrile-based carbon fibers by a direct coating method. The flexural properties, interlaminar shear strength, and the morphology of the xGnP-coated carbon fiber/phenolic matrix composites were investigated in terms of their longitudinal flexural strength and modulus, interlaminar shear strength, and by optical and scanning electron microscopic observations. The results were compared with a phenolic matrix composite counterpart prepared without xGnP. The flexural properties and interlaminar shear strength of the xGnP-coated carbon fiber/phenolic matrix composites were found to be higher than those of the uncoated composite. The flexural and interlaminar shear strengths were affected by the particle size of the xGnP, while the particle size had no significant effect on the flexural modulus. It seems that the interfacial contacts between the xGnP-coated carbon fibers and the phenolic matrix play a role in enhancing the flexural strength as well as the interlaminar shear strength of the composites.
