폴리실록산 고분자의 자가 발포과정을 이용하여 세라믹 다공질체를 제조하였다. 고분자가 가교반응을 하는 과정에서 발생하는 물과 알콜 증기를 이용하면 고분자 용융액 내에 기공을 형성할 수 있다. 세라믹 다공질체 내의 기공의 크기와 모양은 고분자 용융액의 점도에 따라 크게 달라진다. 충진제인 A1$_2$O$_3$ 함량이 증가하면 기공 크기는 감소하며 이는 A1$_2$O$_3$의 입자크기가 감소하여도 비슷한 양상을 보였다. 고분자 용융액의 점도는 고분자의 가교반응정도에 따라서도 영향을 받는다. 발포 전에 13$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리를 하면 점도는 증가하며 다공질체의 기공 안정성은 증가한다. 제조된 세라믹 다공질체의 밀도와 압축강도는 발포과정에서의 승온속도에 따라 다른 값을 보였다.

용융 압출 발포에 의하여 폴리락틱산(PLLA) 지지체를 제조하고 발포 조건이 지지체의 구조와 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고 이를 염 추출법에 의하여 제조된 지지체와 비교하였다. 발포제를 함유한 PLLA 용융체가 압출기 및 다이에서 체류하는 시간이 발포제의 무게를 최대로 감소시키는 시간과 일치하여야 최적의 PLLA 지지체의 구조를 얻을 수 있음을 확인하였다. PLLA지지체의 구조를 유지하기 위해서는 발포제의 함량을 $10\;wt\%$ 이하로 조절해야 하며 PLLA 지지체의 다공도는 PLLA의 압출기에서의 체류시간에 가장 큰 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었다. 용융 압출 발포에 의하여 얻어진 지지체는 일반적으로 염 추출법에 의하여 제조된 지지체보다 다소 낮은 다공도를 갖지만 발포 조건의 조절에 의하여 적절한 다공 크기와 다공의 연결성을 가지며 동시에 우수한 기계적 특성을 가져 경조직 재생(hard tissue regeneration)용으로 사용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Isotropic pitch-based fibers produced from coal tar pitch with the melt-blowing method were carbonized at temperatures ranging from 800 to $1600^{\circ}C$ to investigate their crystalline structure and physical properties as a function of the carbonization temperature. The in-plane crystallite size ($L_a$) of the carbonized pitch fiber from X-ray diffraction increased monotonously by increasing the carbonization temperature resulting in a gradual increase in the electrical conductivity from 169 to 3800 S/cm. However, the variation in the $d_{002}$ spacing and stacking height of the crystallite ($L_c$) showed that the structural order perpendicular to the graphene planes got worse in carbonization temperatures from 800 to $1200^{\circ}C$ probably due to randomization through the process of gas evolution; however, structural ordering eventually occurred at around $1400^{\circ}C$. For the carbonized pitch powder without stabilization, structural ordering perpendicular to the graphene planes occurred at around $800-900^{\circ}C$ indicating that oxygen was inserted during the stabilization process. Additionally, the shear stress that occurred during the melt-blowing process might interfere with the crystallization of the CPF.

This paper describes the application of our recently developed two-phase model for flow-induced crystallization (FIC) to the simulation of fiber spinning and film blowing. 1-D and 2-D simulations of fiber spinning include the combined effects of (FIC), viscoelasticity, filament cooling, air drag, inertia, surface tension and gravity and the process dynamics are modeled from the spinneret to the take-up roll device (below the freeze point). 1-D model fits and predictions are in very good quantitative agreement with high- and low-speed spinline data for both nylon and PET systems. Necking and the associated extensional softening are also predicted. Consistent with experimental observations, the 2-D model also predicts a skin-core structure at low and intermediate spin speeds, with the stress, chain extension and crystallinity being highest at the surface. Film blowing is simulated using a "quasi-cylindrical" approximation for the momentum equations, and simulations include the combined effects of flow-induced crystallization, viscoelasticity, and bubble cooling. The effects of inflation pressure, melt extrusion temperature and take-up ratio on the bubble shape are predicted to be in agreement with experimental observations, and the location of the frost line is predicted naturally as a consequence of flow-induced crystallization. An important feature of our FIC model is the ability to predict stresses at the freeze point in fiber spinning and the frost line in film blowing, both of which are related to the physical and mechanical properties of the final product.l product.

Petroleum based isotropic pitch was spun into short fiber by melt-blown spinning technology. The processing parameters chosen were air velocity, die temperature, and throughput rate of the pitch within the ranges of experimental tolerances. The fiber diameter was reduced to $6{\mu}m$ by increases of hot air velocity, and spin die temperature. Also, the fiber diameter was strongly dependent on the throughput rate of the pitch and jet speed of hot air through the spinnerets. Even fibers with $10{\mu}m$ diameter were produced at throughput rate of $0.17g/min{\cdot}hole$ and at die temperature of $290^{\circ}C$.
