Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) represent a class of non-brittle refractory materials for harsh and extreme environments in aerospace and other applications. The quasi-ductility of these structural materials depends on the quality of the interface between the matrix and the fiber surface. In this study, a manufacture route is described where in contrast to most other processes no additional fiber coating is used to adjust the fiber/matrix interfaces in order to obtain damage tolerance and fracture toughness. Adapted microstructures of uncoated carbon fiber preforms were developed to permit the rapid infiltration of molten alloys and the subsequent reaction with the carbon matrix. Furthermore, any direct reaction between the melt and fibers was minimized. Using pure silicon as the reactive melt, C/SiC composites were manufactured with an aim of employing the resulting composite for friction applications. This paper describes the formation of the microstructure inside the C/C preform and resulting C/C-SiC composite, in addition to the MAX phases.

Recently, prepackaged-type surface preparation materials using redispersible polymer powders are widely used for interior and exterior finishing in the construction work. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance and the quality of prepackaged-type surface preparation materials using a VA/E/MMA terpolymer powder. Surface preparation materials using a VA/E/MMA terpolymer powder were prepared with shrinkage reducing agent contents of 0, 4 % and cellulose fiber contents of 0, 0.5, 1.0 %, and tested for drying shrinkage, strengths, adhesion in tension, crack and impact resistance, water absorption, permeability. As a result, prepackaged-type surface preparation materials show outstanding performance depending on the shrinkage reducing agent and cellulose fiber contents.

탄소섬유강화 플라스틱(CFRP)의 계면 특성은 복합재료의 전체적인 기계적 특성을 제어하므로 매우 중요하다. 이에 따라, 탄소나노튜브(CNT)로 탄소섬유(CF) 표면을 개질하는 것이 계면을 강화하기 위해 활발히 연구되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 표면 개질 방법은 자체적으로 한계가 있다. 예를 들어, CVD 성장에서 탄소섬유의 CNT를 성장시키기 위해 600~1000℃ 범위의 고온을 적용해야 하며, 이는 탄소섬유 자체에 손상을 줄 수 있으므로 물성이 저하될 수 있다. 한편, 본 연구에서는, 폴리아마이드(PA) 610/CF/CNT 복합재가 PA610의 계면중합을 통해 제조되었으며, 유기계와 수계 사이의 계면에서 PA610/CNT 중합이 일어난다. 탄소섬유는 CNT가 균일하게 분산된 PA610으로 코팅되었다. 복합재 내에서의 CNT 분산상태는 주사전자현미경으로 관찰되었으며, 열중량 분석을 통해 복합재의 열안정성을 분석하였다. 그리고 섬유 뽑힘 시험을 통해 섬유와 기지 간의 계면 결합력을 측정하였다.

활성탄소섬유(Activated carbon fiber, ACF)의 비표면적을 향상시키는 대표적인 방법은 알칼리금속을 이용한 화학적 활성화(Chemical activation, CA)와 산화제를 이용한 표면처리(Surface treatment, ST)방법이 있다. 알칼리금속을 이용한 CA 공정은 열처리 과정에서 알칼리금속의 화학반응에 의하여 미세기공이 발달되며, ST 공정은 산화제의 산화력에 의하여 표면의 미세기공을 발달시킨다. 본 연구에서는 대표적인 표면개질 방법인 CA 공정의 효과를 증대하기 위하여 전처리로 ST 공정을 수행하였으며, ST 공정 유무에 따라 CA된 ACF의 특성변화를 관찰하였다. ST 및 CA 유무에 따른 ACF 특성을 조사하기 위하여 무게변화, FT-IR, TGA, 원소분석을 수행하였으며, 대표적인 VOC물질인 톨루엔을 이용하여 흡착특성을 평가하였다. 실험결과 초기 raw ACF의 비표면적과 톨루엔 흡착량은 각각 1,483 $m^2/g$, 0.22 $g_{-Tol.}/g_{-ACF}$였으며, CA 처리시 1,998 $m^2/g$, 0.27 $g_{-Tol.}/g_{-ACF}$로 증가하였고, ST된 ACF를 CA 처리한 경우 2,743 $m^2/g$, 0.37 $g_{-Tol.}/g_{-ACF}$로 증가하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 ST 및 CA 결합공정을 통한 ACF의 표면특성을 증가를 확인하였다.

SiC hollow fiber was fabricated by curing, dissolution and sintering of Al-PCS fiber, which was melt spun the polyaluminocarbosilane. Al-PCS fiber was thermally oxidized and dissolved in toluene to remove the unoxidized area, the core of the cured fiber. The wall thickness ($t_{wall}$) of Al-PCS fiber was monotonically increased with an increasing oxidation curing time. The Al-PCS hollow fiber was heat-treated at the temperature between 1200 and $2000^{\circ}C$ to make a SiC hollow fibers having porous structure on the fiber wall. The pore size of the fiber wall was increased with the sintering temperature due to the decomposition of the amorphous $SiC_xO_y$ matrix and the growth of ${\beta}$-SiC in the matrix. At $1400^{\circ}C$, a nano porous wall with a high specific surface area was obtained. However, nano pores grew with the grain growth after the thermal decomposition of the amorphous matrix. This type of SiC hollow fibers are expected to be used as a substrate for a gas separation membrane.

The improvement of fouling resistance of porous polymeric membrane is one of the most important targets in membrane preparation for water purification in many process like wastewater treatment. Membranes can be modified by various techniques, including the treatment of polymer material, blending of hydrophilic polymer into polymer solution, and post treatment of fabricated membrane. This research proposed the modifications of morphology and surface property of hydrophobic membrane by blending polyethersulfone (PES) with three polymeric additives, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), Pluronic F127 (Plu), and Tetronic 1307 (Tet). PES hollow fiber membranes were fabricated via dry-wet spinning process by using a spinneret with inner and outer diameter of 0.7 and 1.0 mm, respectively. The morphology changes of PES blend membrane by those additives, as well as the change of performance in ultrafiltration module were comparatively observed. The surface structure of membranes was characterized by atomic force microscopy and Fourier transform infra red spectroscopy. The cross section morphology of PES blend hollow fiber membranes was investigated by scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that all polymeric additives blended in this system affected to improve the performances of PES membrane. The ultra-filtration experiment confirmed that PES-PVP membrane showed the best performance among the three membranes on the basis of filtration stability.

In order to do continuous health monitoring of large structures, it is necessary that the distributed sensing of strain and temperature of the structures be measured. So, we present the temperature compensation of a signal from a fiber optic BOTDA (Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis) sensor. A fiber optic BOTDA sensor has good performance of strain measurement. However, the signal of a fiber optic BOTDA sensor is influenced by strain and temperature. Therefore, we applied an optical fiber on the beam as follows: one part of the fiber, which is sensitive to the strain and the temperature, is bonded on the surface of the beam and another part of the fiber, which is only sensitive to the temperature, is located nearby the strain sensing fiber. Therefore, the strains can be determined from the strain sensing fiber while compensating for the temperature from the temperature sensing fiber. These measured strains were compared with the strains from electrical strain gages. After temperature compensation, it was concluded that the strains from the fiber optic BOTDA sensor had good coincidence with those values of the conventional electrical strain gages.

The friction and wear characteristics of brake friction materials reinforced with aramid fiber, carbon fiber, glass fiber, and potassium titanate whiskers were investigated using a pad-on-disk type friction tester. In particular, the morphology of rubbing surfaces was carefully investigated to correlate the friction performance and properties of transfer films. The aramid fiber reinforced specimen showed severe oscillation of friction coefficient at low speed and low applied pressure. The carbon fiber reinforced specimen showing better friction stability exhibited uniform and stable transfer film than any other specimens. The glass fiber reinforced specimen showed unstable friction changes at high speed and high-applied pressure and the non-uniform transfer film was observed in both friction material and rotor surface. The potassium titanate whiskers reinforced specimen showed stable coherent transfer film. The wear test exhibited the potassium titanate whiskers reinforced specimen was lowest in wear amount and glass fiber reinforced specimen showed the severe wear.

Fire ranks high among the potential risks faced by most buildings and structures. A full understanding of temperature effects on fiber reinforced concrete is still lacking. This investigation focuses on the study of the residual compressive strength, stress strain behavior and surface cracking of structural polypropylene fiber-reinforced concrete subjected to temperatures up to $300^{\circ}C$. A total of 48 cubes was cast with different fiber dosages and tested under compression after exposing to different temperatures. Concrete cubes with varying macro (structural) fiber dosages were exposed to different temperatures and tested to observe the stress-strain behavior. Digital image correlation, an advanced non-contacting method was used for measuring the strain. Trends in the relative residual strengths with respect to different fiber dosages indicate an improvement up to 15 % in the ultimate compressive strengths at all exposure temperatures. The stress-strain curves show an improvement in post peak behavior with increasing fiber dosage at all exposure temperatures considered in this study.
