탄소섬유는 전구체의 종류에 따라 PAN계, 피치계 그리고 레이온계로 나뉘며 최종 탄소섬유의 특성에도 차이가 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근에는 PAN계 탄소섬유가 세계 시장의 대부분을 차지하고 있으며, PAN계 탄소섬유의 초경량, 고강도, 고탄성, 내약품성 그리고 열안정성 등의 우수한 특성으로 최첨단 고기능성 제품의 복합재로 많이 이용되고 있다. 그러나 탄소섬유가 가지고 있는 높은 열전도성은 적용에 따라 단점으로 작용될 수도 있다. 예를 들면, 로켓 엔진의 노즐이나 원자로의 구조물 그리고 극한조건용 구조재료 등, 고강도 단열특성을 요하는 최첨단 복합재로 응용 범위를 넓히는데 한계로 작용한다. 레이온은 최초의 탄소섬유 전구체였으나 공정상 경제성이 떨어지는 이유로, 지금은 고탄성을 요구하는 특수 목적으로만 소량 생산되고 있다. 레이온의 주원료는 셀룰로오스이며 셀룰로오스는 지구상에서 가장 흔한 재료이므로 오늘날 셀룰로오스를 보강재로 이용하려는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 탄소섬유의 열전도도를 낮추기 위한 방법으로 안정화셀룰로오스를 첨가한 PAN용액을 출발물질로 탄소섬유를 제조하고 특성 연구를 진행하였다. PAN용액에 셀룰로오스의 분산성을 향상시키기 위해 셀룰로오스를 열처리하였다. 이 과정에서 얻어진 안정화 셀룰로오스의 수율을 높이기 위해 셀룰로오스를 난연 처리하였으며, 그 결과 안정화셀룰로오스의 수율을 향상시킬 수 있었다. 안정화셀룰로오스를 첨가시킨 PAN계 탄소섬유의 물리적, 기계적 그리고 열적 특성을 SEM, XRD, 만능 인장시험기, TGA 그리고 Laser Flash Method 등을 통해 주요 특성 및 변화를 관찰한 결과, 순수한 PAN계 탄소섬유의 특성과 유사한 결과를 얻었다. 향후 몇 가지 공정상의 문제점을 개선한다면 흥미로운 결과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 본다.

The direct tensile strength of the mortar specimen containing pitch-based carbon fiber was ranged between 1/27~1/22 as compared to the average compressive strength of mortar. It was found that the direct tensile strength of the mortar containing the same amount of PAN-based carbon fiber was around 1/15. While the case of the control specimen without the carbon fiber was around 1/29. One the other hands, the flexural tensile strength of the mortar containing pitch-based carbon fibers was about 1/12 as compared to the average compressive strength. In case of the mortar specimen with PAN-based carbon fiber and control mortar were 1/10 and 1/13.5, respectively. The tensile performance of the mortar with pitch-based carbon fiber was found to be intermediate between control mortar and the reinforced mortar incorporated with the PAN-based carbon fiber.

General purpose PAN-based carbon fibers were heat treated up to $1500^{\circ}C$, and analyzed their carbon contents, crstallinity, and crystalline size(Lc). Exothermic characteristics of carbon fiber were investigated in relation to crystallinity, and crystalline size(Lc). Carbon contents, crystallinities, and crystalline size(Lc) of PAN-based carbon fibers increased from 37.08 to 53.69%, and 1.62 to 1.82 nm, respectively as the increase of heat treatment temperature from $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1500^{\circ}C$. Initial surface temperature of fiber tow also linearly increased as the increase of crystallinity, and crystalline size(Lc). Therefore, the crystallinity and crystal size(Lc) of carbon fibers can indirectly and rapidly be estimated by measuring the surface temperature increase.

In this work, the pitch-based carbon paper (P-CP) was prepared by re-impregnating of binder pitches and PAN-based milled carbon fibers (MCF) at low temperature carbonization process. The influence of MCF content on physicochemical properties of MCF/P-CP was investigated. As a result, the tensile strength of MCF/P-CP was increased sharply from 10 wt.% to 20 wt.% of MCF. Also, the increase of MCF content led to the decrease of interfacial contact resistivity and the improvement of electrical and thermal conductivity of MCF/P-CP. These results were probably due to the increase of density of MCF/P-CP, resulting in the formation of electrically and thermally conductive paths of the carbon paper.

In this study activated carbon fibers were prepared from PAN-based carbon fibers by physical activation with steam or carbon dioxide. The variations in specific surface area amount of iodine adsorption and pore size distribution of the activated carbon fibers after the activation process were discussed. in steam activation BET surface area of about 1019 m2/g was obtained after 77% burn-off while carbn dioxide activation produced ACF with 694m2/g of BET surface area after 52% burn-off. However carbon dioxide activation produced at a similar degree of activation higher micropore volume(0.37 cc/g) and amount of iodine adsorption (1589mg/g) than steam activation. Nitrogen adsorption isotherms for (PAN based activated carbon fibers that prepared by physical activation were of type I in the Brunauer-Deming-Deming-Teller classification

Activated carbon fibers were prepared from stabilized PAN fibers by physical and chemical activation to compare their characteristics. In this study, stabilized PAN fibers were activated by physical activation with steam and CO$_2$, and by chemical activation with KOH. The fabricated activated carbon fibers were evaluated and compared such as specific surface area, pore size distribution, pore volume, and amount of iodine adsorption. In the steam activation, a specific surface area of 1635 m$^2$/g was obtained after heat treatment at 990$^{\circ}C$. Otherwise, in the CO$_2$ activation, produced activated carbon fibers had been a specific surface area of 671 m$^2$/g after heat treatment at 990$^{\circ}C$. In chemical activation using KOH, a specific surface area of 3179 m$^2$/g was obtained with a KOH/ stabilized PAN fiber ratio of 1.5 : 1 at 900$^{\circ}C$. Nitrogen adsorption isotherms for fabricated activated carbon fibers showed type I and transformation from type I and II in the Brunauer-Deming-Deming-Teller (B.D.D.T) classification. Increasing specific surface area Increased the amount of iodine adsorption in both activation methods. Because the ionic radius of iodine was smaller than the interior micropore size of activated carbon fibers.

The results of an experimental study on the manufacture and the mechanical properties of carbon fiber rekforced silica fume . cement composites and light weight fly ash . cement composites are presented in this paper. 11s the test results show, the flexural strength, fracture toughness and ductility of CF reinforced silica fume . cement composites were remarkably increased by the increase of carbon fiber contents. And the workability of the fly ash . cement composites were improved, but the compressive and flexural strength and bulk specific gravity of them are decreased by increasing the ratio of fly ash to cement. And the compressive and flexural strength of the fly ash cement composites by cured under the hot water were improved than those by mositure cured. Also, the manufacturing process technology of lightweight fly ash . cement composites in replacement of general autoclaved lightweight concrete was developed and its optimum mix proportions were proposed.

Fafbric 4종, 수지2종과 상용화된 프리프레그 2종에 대한 내열특성에 관하여 비교 연구 하였다. Fabric의 특성은 알려진 바와 같이 PAN계 카본 fabric의 경우 내삭마성은 우수하나 단열성능이 떨어지고, Rayon계의 경우는 그 반대이다. 공정성면에서는 rayon spun yarn으로 제직한 경우가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. Spun PAM으로 제직한 경우는 직조후 탄화공정을 채택함으로써. 노즐재료로서 PAN계 탄소섬유의 사용을 가능하게 하였지만 즉 공정성은 좋으나 단열성 및 내삭마성 모두가 떨어졌다. F940수지의 경우는 SC1008과 페놀수지의 화학적특성은 다소 차이가 있으나 물리적특성이나 열적특성은 거의 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 프리프레그의 제조는 각수지와 Fabric의 조건에 맞게 R/C, V/C를 조정하여 코팅하였다. 토오치 테스트등 결과들을 종합해보면 전체적인 노즐재료로서의 성능은 아직은 Rayon계 카본이 우수한것으로 판단할수 있으나, 보다 정확한 평가를 위해서는 실제 노즐 테스트가 필요하다.

The study on the adsorption, the surface properties and the antibacterial effects of the Ni-treated PAN based activated carbon fibers was carried out. In the adsorption study on the Ni-treated PAN based ACFs, Type I isotherms for N1-N3 and Type II-Type III isotherms for N4-N6 were obtained, respectively. Futhermore, their adsorbed volumes slowly were decreased with the increase in the mole concentration of Ni on the treated PAN based ACFs. From the BET equation, the specific surface areas of the Ni-treated PAN based ACFs were in the range of $692.58-895.24m^2/g$. The micropore volumes obtained from ${\alpha}_s$-method using common-t value were $0.19-0.56cm^3/g$. The surfaces of PAN based ACFs partially blocked by metal after the treatment were observed from the SEM micrographs. Finally, from the antibacterial effects using Shake flask method against E. coli, the percentage of the effects was 92.5-100% and the antibacterial effect was increased with the increase in mole concentration of Ni treated.
