Tribological behaviors of carbon epoxy composites whose surfaces have many small grooves were compared with respect to coating method under dry sliding and water lubricating conditions. The surface coating materials were epoxy (Ep) and polyethylene (PE) mixed with self-lubricating $MoS_2$ and PTFE powders. The wear morphology of the composites observed with a scanning electron microscopic (SEM) revealed that the surface coating layer mixed with the self-lubricating powder on the grooved surface significantly improved the wear resistance under water lubricating condition because the surface coating layer blocked water to penetrate the composite surface and the self-lubricating powder reduced the wear on the coating by suppressing the generation of blisters.

The present research was aimed at comparing performance of metallic and polymer composite shells of a typical underwater vessel of length and inner diameter of 1650 mm and 350 mm respectively, based on the critical buckling pressure for operating depth of 1000 m using ANSYS. High strength steel, aluminium alloy, titanium alloy, glass / epoxy and carbon / epoxy materials were examined. The results indicated weight savings of 46 % in carbon/epoxy and 31 % in glass / epoxy when compared with high strength steel, based on the thickness of the shell for sustaining 10 MPa buckling pressure.

본 연구는 철도차량에 적용되는 직물 유리섬유/에폭시 적층 복합재의 피로특성 및 피로수명에 대해 평가하였다. 이때, 피로시험은 0.1의 응력비(R)와 5Hz의 주파수에서 인장-인장 하중 조건이 고려되었으며, 시험편은 카본/에폭시 플라이가 보강된 시험편과 보강되지 않은 시험편 두 가지 타입을 고려하였다. 또한, 직물 유리섬유/에폭시 적층 복합재의 피로수명을 평가하기 위해 철도차량 차체와 언더프레임에 주로 사용되는 알루미늄 6005와 비교하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 3장의 카본/에폭시 플라이가 보강된 직물 유리섬유/에폭시 적층 복합재 시험편이 보강되지 않은 기본 시험편보다 피로강도 및 피로수명이 크게 향상됨을 확인하였다.

A hybrid composite (APAL;Aramid Patched ALuminum alloy, CPAL;Carbon Patched ALluminum alloy), consisting of a Al 2024-T3 aluminum alloy plate sandwiched between two aramid/epoxy and carbon/epoxy laminate, was developed. Fatigue crack growth behavior was examined at stress ratios of R=0.2, 0.5. The APAL and CPAL showed superior fatigue crack growth resistance, which may be attributed to the crack bridging effect imposed by the intact fibers in the crack wake.

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.

2개 이상의 에폭시 기지재의 배합비를 이용하여 최적의 에폭시 복합재료를 제조하였다. 이 실험에서 노볼락계 에폭시 및 아이소시아네이트계 에폭시를 기지재로 사용하였다. 그에 따라 화학적 조성의 변화를 이용하여 다양한 실험을 통한 최적의 에폭시 배합비를 유추하였고, 에폭시의 내열성 및 계면을 파악하기 위하여 열중량측정기를 이용하여 유리전이온도의 변화를 파악하였고 정적 접촉각을 측정하였다. 기계적 물성을 파악하기 위하여 에폭시 배합비에 따른 유리섬유/에폭시 복합재료의 인장, 압축, 굴곡강도를 상온에서 및 노화시간에 따라 파악하였다. 에폭시와 유리섬유간 계면을 개념도로 나타냈다. 시험 결과 에폭시 배합비에 따른 적외선 피크 및 유리전이온도 변화를 확인하였다. 서로 다른 에폭시의 배합비가 1:1일 때 기계적물성이 상대적으로 좋은 것을 확인하였다.

탄소/에폭시 복합재료 분리판(BP)은 높은 기계적 특성과 생산성으로 인해 바나듐 레독스 흐름전지(VRFB)의 기존 흑연 분리판을 대체할 가능성이 있는 BP이다. 다기능 구조인 탄소/에폭시 복합재료 BP는 계면접촉저항(ICR)을 줄이기 위해 흑연 코팅 또는 추가 표면 처리가 필요하다. 그러나 팽창 흑연 코팅은 VRFB 작동 조건에서 낮은 내구성을 가지며 별도의 표면 처리는 추가 비용이 발생한다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 폴리에스테르 직물을 적용하여 탄소/에폭시 복합재료 BP 표면의 잉여 수지층을 균일하게 제거하여 탄소섬유를 노출시키는 잉여 수지 흡수법을 개발하였다. 이 방법은 BP 표면에 탄소섬유를 노출하여 ICR을 감소시킬 뿐만 아니라 탄소 펠트 전극을 효과적으로 고정할 수 있는 고유한 도랑 패턴을 형성한다. 잉여 수지 흡수법에 의해 제작된 복합재료 BP의 산성 환경 내구성, 기계적 특성 및 기체 투과도에 대해 실험적으로 검증하였다.

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.

Vapor grown carbon fibers (VGCF) were treated with atmospheric plasma enhancing the surface area in order to improve the bonding to the matrix in epoxy composites. The changes in the mechanical properties of VGCF/epoxy nanocompostes, such as tensile modulus and tensile strength were investigated in this study. VGCF with and without atmospheric plasma treatment for surface modification were used in this investigation. The interdependence of these properties on the VGCF contents and interfacial bonding between VGCF/epoxy matrix were discussed. The mechanical properties of atmospheric plasma treated (APT) VGCF/epoxy were compared with raw VGCF/epoxy. The tensile strength of APT VGCF/epoxy nanocomposites showed higher value than that of raw VGCF. The tensile strength was increased with atmospheric plasma treatment, due to better adhesion at VGCF/epoxy interface. The tensile modulus of raw VGCF and APT VGCF/epoxy matrix were of the similar value. The dispersion of the VGCF was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), SEM micrographs showed an excellent dispersion of VGCF in epoxy matrix by ultrasonic method.
