Electrospun polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers were carbonized with or without iron (III) acetylacetonate to induce catalytic graphitization within the range of 900-1,500$^{circ}C$, resulting in ultrafine carbon fibers with a diameter of about 90-300 nm. Their structural properties and morphologies were investigated. The carbon nanofibers (CNF) prepared without a catalyst showed amorphous structures and very low surface areas of 22-31 $m^{2}$/g. The carbonization in the presence of the catalyst produced graphite nanofibers (GNF). The hydrogen storage capacities of these CNF and GNF materials were evaluated through the gravimetric method using magnetic suspension balance (MSB) at room temperature and 100 bar. The CNFs showed hydrogen storage capacities which increased in the range of 0.16-0.50 wt$\%$ with increasing carbonization temperature. The hydrogen storage capacities of the GNFs with low surface areas of 60-253 $m^{2}$/g were 0.14-1.01 wt$\%$. Micropore and mesopore, as calculated using the nitrogen gas adsorption-desorption isotherms, were not the effective pore for hydrogen storage.

신축성 스트레인 센서는 웨어러블 기기나 건강 모니터링과 같은 미래 응용 분야에 적용하기 위하여 개발되고 있는데, 센서의 신뢰성을 높이기 위해 안정성과 반복성이 고려되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 3D 프린팅을 통해 키리가미 패턴이 있는 고분자 구조를 제작하여 센서의 신축성과 히스테리시스를 개선하였다. 견고한 전도성 네트워크를 구현하기 위하여 그래핀과 탄소나노섬유를 혼합한 하이브리드 소재를 고분자 구조에 코팅하였다. 제작한 신축성 스트레인 센서는 32%의 스트레인에 대해 게이지팩터가 36을 보였으며, 1%부터 30%까지의 다양한 스트레인에 대해서 안정적인 저항 변화 응답을 나타냈다.

크라프트 리그닌-polyacrylonitrile (PAN) 그라프트 공중합체의 전기방사 나노섬유매트를 열처리와 이산화망간($MnO_2$) 전기증착법을 이용하여 리그닌 기반 탄소나노섬유 매트(lignin based carbon nanofiber mat, LCNFM)로 제조하고, 슈퍼캐퍼시터용 전극소재(electrode)로의 응용가능성에 대하여 조사하였다. 전기증착 처리시간이 길수록 $MnO_2$-LCNFM 표면의 흡착되는 이산화망간양이 증가하였으며, 이에 따른 탄소나노섬유의 직경과 이산화망간 흡착층이 증가하였다. $MnO_2$-LCNFM 전극의 전기 화학적 특성을 순환전압전류측정(cyclic voltammetry)을 통해 평가하였고, 최대 $168.0mF{\cdot}cm^{-2}$의 비축적용량을 보였다. $MnO_2$-LCNFM를 이용하여 $H_3PO_4$/Polyvinyl alcohol 겔 전해질로 제작한 하이브리드 슈퍼캐퍼시터(hybrid supercapacitor)는 약 90%의 전기용량 효율(capacitance efficiency)을 보였으며, 1,000회의 충 방전 시험에서 안정적인 거동을 나타냈다.

Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) has received widespread attention in the field of civil engineering because of its superior durability and corrosion resistance. This article presents the damage mechanisms of a novelty composite called carbon nanofiber modified flax fiber polymer (CNF-modified FFRP). The ability of acoustic emission (AE) to detect damage evolution for different configurations of specimens under uniaxial tension was examined, and some useful AE characteristic parameters were obtained. Test results shows that the mechanical properties of modified composites are associated with the CNF content and the evenness of CNF dispersed in the epoxy matrix. Various damage mechanisms was established by means of scanning electron microscope images. The fuzzy c-means clustering were proposed to classify AE events into groups representing different generation mechanisms. The classifiers are constructed using the traditional AE features -- six parameters from each burst. Amplitude and peak-frequency were selected as the best cluster-definition features from these AE parameters. After comprehensive comparison, a correlation between these AE events classes and the damage mechanisms observed was proposed.

Graphite nanofiber (GNF) and carbon nanotube (CNT) are novel fiber reinforcing materials which have outstanding physical and mechanical properties. Aluminum matrix composites reinforced graphite nanofiber were fabricated by conventional powder metallurgy (PM) method. The composites were prepared through ultrasonication, ball milling, and hot isostatic pressing. A uniform distribution of GNF in aluminum matrix could be obtained. To measure the mechanical properties of GNF-Al composites testings were done in indentation and compression. The compressive strength was enhanced according to reinforcing graphite nanofiber while the hardness was decreased. This study makes the high performance composites for future applications.

The surge in demand for lithium is primarily fueled by the expanding electric vehicle market, the necessity for renewable energy storage, and governmental initiatives aimed at achieving carbon neutrality. This study proposes a straightforward method for lithium extraction utilizing cellulose nanofiber (CNF) via a vacuum filtration process. This approach yields a porous CNF film, showcasing its potential utility as a lithium extractor and indicator. Given its abundance and eco-friendly characteristics, cellulose nanofiber (CNF) emerges as a material offering both economic and environmental advantages over traditional lithium extraction techniques. Hence, this research not only contributes to lithium recovery but also presents a sustainable solution to meet the growing demand for lithium in energy storage technologies.

In order to improve the lithium ion battery's performance, the carbon nanofibers were introduced to the anode electrode fabricated with natural graphite particles. The influence of structural adjustment of the particles by the introduction method of carbon nanofibers and the content of carbon nanofibers on the electrical property and charge/discharge characteristics of the electrode were investigated. The electrode fabricated with the mixture of 10 wt% of carbon nanofibers grown separately and 90 wt% of graphite particles showed an excellent discharge capacity of 400 mAh/g and the improved cycle performance. The improved performance could be explained by that the carbon nanofibers shortened and uniformly distributed on the surface of graphite particles by ball milling increased the stability for the intercalation/deintercalation of lithium ion and increased the electrical conductivity due to the closed packing between graphite particles.

Composite electrodes consisting of $CoMnO_2$ and carbon nanofibers(vapor grown carbon nanofiber, VGCF) with high electrical conducivity($CoMnO_2$/VGCF) were prepared on a porous nickel foam substrate as a current collector and their supercapacitive properties were investigated using cyclic voltammetry in 1 M KOH aqueous solution. The $CoMnO_2$/VGCF electrode exhibited high specific capacitance value of 630 F/g at 5 mV/s and excellent capacitance retention of 95% after $10^4$ cycles, indicating that the used VGCF played the important roles in reducing the interfacial resistance in the composite electrode to improve supercapacitive performance.

For microelectronic circuits, the main type of failure is thermal fatigue. Therefore, the search for matched coefficients of thermal expansion (CTE) of packaging materials in combination with a high thermal conductivity is the main task for developments of heat sink materials electronics, and good mechanical properties are also required. The aim of this work is to develop copper matrix composites reinforced with carbon nanofibers to meet these requirements. In this paper, a technology for obtaining a homogeneous mixture of copper and nanofibers will be presented and the microstructure and properties of consolidated samples will be discussed.
