Graphites is well known to have superior advantages to high-temperature, high-pressured, and strong acid-state gas or liquid because it is very stable and chemical structure. Nowadays the new plant with high performance is developed in field of chemical industries, so the need of graphites is increasing rapidly. In this paper, newly developed graphite products with high density is investigated by the mechanical properties of that. I introduced the graphite material which developed for this experiment by the forming process in order to compare to the commercial graphite sheet from expanded graphite which made by the rolling process. Through measuring density and hardness test also tensile test, I investigated the characteristics of these materials. It is verified that the newly developed graphite products forming method is able to make graphite products which have superior mechanical properties than that of commercial graphite sheet.

In this study, an expanded graphite-titanium oxide composite is developed from expanded graphite (EG) and titanium n-butoxide (TNB). EG is synthesized by chemical intercalation of natural graphite (NG) and rapid expansion at high temperature. TNB is used as the titanium source. The performances of the prepared EG-$TiO_2$ composite are characterized by BET surface area measurements, scan electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The catalytic activities of the EG-$TiO_2$ composite are investigated by analysis of the degradation of methylene blue (MB) in aqueous solution under irradiation of UV light. Compared with the pristine $TiO_2$ and activity carbon-$TiO_2$ (AC-$TiO_2$) composite, the EG-$TiO_2$ composite shows very high efficiency against MB solution, and the EG could improve the photocatalytic effect of $TiO_2$ in the MB degradation reaction under the irradiation of UV light.

The 2-step manufacturing method consisting of preforming and stamping processes was developed to manufacture composite bipolar plates for PEMFCs. The preform was composed of expanded graphite, graphite flake and phenol resin. Precuring conditions were optimized by checking the electrical conductivity, flexural strength and microstructure. Precuring temperature ($100^{\circ}C$) slightly above the melting point of phenol powders ($90^{\circ}C$) induced moderate curing, but also prevented excessive curing. Preforms utilizing the tangled structure of expanded graphite were easily fabricated at low pressure of 0.07-0.28MPa. The proper precuring time, 5min, was determined to fabricate the preform stably because insufficient and excessive precuring deteriorated the flexural strength of composite bipolar plates.

Expanded graphite (EG) was prepared using a drying process for application as an oil-adsorbent: the morphology, expansion volume, and oil absorption capacity of the EG were investigated. The expanded volume of the EG increased with an increasing reaction time and heat treatment temperature. The oil adsorption capacity of the EG was 45 g of n-dodecane per 1 g of EG. It is noted that the drying process of EG is a useful technique for a new oil-adsorbent.

그라파이트 산화물(graphite oxide;G.O)는 그라파이트와는 다르게 물에서의 분산 능력이 뛰어나고 다양한 기판상에 단일 G.O layer를 형성할 수 있는 특성을 가지고 있으며, 유연(flexible)하고 투명(transparent)하기 때문에 다양한 전 자기 디바이스에 적용 가능하다. 특히, 최근 자성산화물 나노입자(magnetic oxide nanoparticles)에 대한 연구가 집중되고 있는데, 이러한 자성 나노입자와 G.O와의 복합체에 대한 연구는 다양한 분야로의 적용성에 대한 새로운 길을 열어주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 화학적 처리법을 적용하여 자성 나노입자(Co 나노입자)와 G.O 복합체를 제조하였다. Natural Graphite powder (N.G)에 $H_2O_4$ (98%) 및 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$를 적정 몰비로 첨가하여 반응 시킨 후 공기 중에서 열처리 공정을 수행하여 expanded graphite (E.G)를 제조 하였다. 열처리된 E.G를 $1,050^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 15~30초 및 30~60초 동안 공기 중에서 열처리 하여 expanded graphite oxide (E.G.O)를 제조하였으며, E.G.O와 $Co(acac)_3$의 화학적 반응을 통하여 Co 자성나노입자-G.O 복합체를 제조하였다. N.G, E.G, E.G.O 및 E.G.O+Co입자의 결정구조 분석을 위하여 XRD 측정을 수행하였으며, FTIR을 이용하여 각 단계에서의 반응성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 각 단계에서 표면 및 내부 미세구조 특성 분석을 위하여 SEM, TEM, 및 EDX 분석을 수행하였으며, E.G.O+Co 복합체의 자기적 특성 평가를 위하여VSM (vibrating sample magnetometer) 측정을 수행하였다. 이러한 연구 결과는 향후 자성나노입자와 그라핀과의 복합화를 위한 기저 기술로 활용가능하리라 판단된다.

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 various expanded graphites (EGs) was prepared and applied as anode material for high power Li-ion secondary battery (LIB). By changing the processing conditions of EG, a series of EG with different structure were produced, showing the changed electrochemical properties. The charge-discharge test showed that the initial reversible capacity of EG anodes prepared at the suitable conditions was over 400 mAh/g and the charge capacity at 5 C-rate was 83.2 mAh/g. These values demonstrated the much improved electrochemical properties as compared with those for the graphite anode of 360 mAh/g and 19.4 mAh/g, respectively, showing the possibility of EG anode materials for high power LIB.

In this work, expanded graphite (EG)-reinforced poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) nanocomposites were prepared by the melt mixing method and the content of the EG was fixed as 2 wt%. The effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as a co-carbon filler on the electrical and mechanical properties of the EG/PET was investigated. The results showed that the electrical and mechanical properties of the EG/PET were significantly increased with the addition of MWCNTs, showing an improvement over those of PET prepared with EG alone. This was most likely caused by the interconnections in the MWCNTs between the EG layers in the PET matrix. It was found that the addition of the MWCNTs into EG/PET led to dense conductive networks for easy electron transfers, indicating a bridge effect of the MWCNTs.
