Carbon cloth was impregnated into PTFE emulsion. PTFE is a fluoropolymer used as a coating material in various fields due to its hydrophobicity and excellent mechanical properties. In this study, PTFE emulsion was prepared different particle size of 5~500 nm and $3{\sim}5{\mu}m$. FE-SEM and FT-IR spectroscopy were used microscopic observation and investigation of chemical structure change after PTFE coating. Mass variations, gas permeability and water contact angles were analyzed to determine a GDL performance of PTFE coated carbon cloth. PTFE coated carbon cloth show different mass increase according as PTFE concentration and the number of coating times. Water contact angle of PTFE coated carbon cloth was not effected by size of PTFE particle and the number of coating time; meanwhile, gas permeability was rapidly changed at carbon cloth coated by emulsion with size of $3{\sim}5{\mu}m$ PTFE particle.

이차전지의 에너지 밀도를 높이기 위한 방법으로 전극의 로딩을 높이는 방법에 대하여 많은 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 리튬이온 이차전지용 양극에서 보편적으로 사용되어 온 기존의 polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) 바인더가 아닌 polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) 바인더를 적용하여 고로딩의 LiNi_0.5Co_0.2Mn_0.3O₂ (NCM523) 양극을 제조하였다. 기존의 슬러리 공정이 아닌 PTFE 현탁액을 이용한 반죽공정을 통하여 로딩을 높인 두꺼운 전극이 용이하게 제조되었다. PTFE 및 PVdF 기반의 전극을 5.0 mAh/cm²의 로딩레벨로 각각 제조한 결과로 PTFE를 적용한 전극이 좀 더 우수한 사이클 수명과 속도특성을 지니고 있음을 확인하였다. PTFE 바인더를 사용한 반죽공정으로 제조된 전극은 기공도가 커서 전극밀도가 높지 않기 때문에 압연을 상온이 아닌 120℃ 이상의 고온에서 진행함으로써 기공도를 낮출 수 있었으나, 이에 따른 사이클 성능의 차이는 크지 않았다. 또한, 전극조성에서 도전재의 함량을 높임으로써 고로딩 전극의 사이클 수명을 소폭 향상시킬 수 있었다. PTFE 바인더 적용으로 고로딩 전극의 성능을 향상시킬 수 있었으나, 추가적인 개선이 필요할 것이다.

Aluminum was used as metallic bipolar plate material to reduce a stack weight. The functional materials such as conductive material, Au and nonconductive material, PTFE [polytetrafluoroethylene] were coated on the bipolar plate to enhance electrical contact and corrosion prevention in PEMFC. The active area of bipolar plate is divided into the top layer part that electric current mainly passes, and the bottom layer part that gas and water pass. The bottom layer part in the flow channel needs not to have electrical conductivity because it doesn't pass electric current directly. In this reason, Au on the top layer and PTFE on the bottom layer were coated to apply high electrical conductivity and/or good corrosion resistance. Although the single cell performance using Au-PTFE/Al bipolar plate was shown 78% in comparison with that of graphite, specific power of Au-PTFE/Al bipolar plate(0.4 W/g) was twice as much as graphite bipolar plate.

아라미드 레노직물은 컨베이어벨트, 건조벨트, 스크림직물, 전자산업용 이송체 등 여러 산업분야에 사용되고 있다. 레노는 2D 구조의 메쉬 형태 직물이고 치수안정성이 낮다. 그렇기 때문에 치수안정성을 부여할 수 있는 후가공이 필요하며, 현재는 치수안정성을 부여하고 여러 물성보완과 내수성을 향상시키기 위해 PTFE(Polytetrafluoroethylene) 코팅을 하고 있다. 우리는 이러한 PTFE코팅의 영향을 분석하기 위해 강도, 탄성률, 열팽창계수, 내산성 등을 분석하였고, 그 결과 강도와 탄성률, 열팽창계수, 내산성 등이 PTFE 코팅에 의해 향상된 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 PTFE 코팅에 의해 형태안정성이 향상되었고, 동시에 열적 안정성이 향상되었기 때문인 것으로 판단된다.

PTFE(Polytetrafluoroethylene)은 매우 낮은 마찰계수를 나타내고, -260부터 +260$\circ$C의 온도에서 계속적으로 사용할 수 있는 유용한 기계적 성질들을 유지한다. 결정 용융점은 327$\circ$C로서, 대부분의 다른 준결정(semicrystalline) 복합 재료들 보다 훨씬 높다. 더욱이, PTFE는 응력 상태에서 냉간 유동성을 보이며, 준결정 고분자들 중에서 가장 높은 마모율을 보인다. 하지만, 이러한 단점들은 PTFE내에 충전재(filler)를 첨가함으로써 매우 향상될 수 있다. PTFE의 독특한 특성의 하나는 충전재가 함유될 때의 내마모성의 증가가 다른 준결정 고분자보다 대단히 큰 것이다. 위에서 언급된 특성으로 인하여, PTFE는 마찰에 응용되는 고분자계 복합 재료들 중에서 매우 중요한 메트릭스 고분자이다. PTFE의 독특한 트라이볼로지적 성질들은 고유의 분자적 그리고 형태적 구조에 기인한다.

Expanded polytetrafluoroethyene(expanded PTFE) 인조혈관을 이용한 동정 맥루조성술은 장기간의 혈액투석을 시행받는 환자들의 이차적인 동정 맥루조성술로서 많이 이용되고 있는 방법이다. 충남대학교병원 흉부외과에서는 1990년 8월부터 1995년 8월까지 35명의 환자에서 48례의 expanded PTFE인조혈관을 이용한 동정 맥루조성술을 시행하였고, 이중 32명의 환자 43례 에서 1개월에서 46개월 까지 추적관찰하였다. 저자들은 forearm에 36례의 수술을 시행하였고 upperarm에는 7례의 수술을 시행하였다. 수술실패가 3례, 조기 및 만기 합병증이 22례였었다(15례의 인조혈관 혈전, 기타 7례). 전체 동정맥루의 누적개존율은 12개월이 63%, 24개월 32%, 36개월 32%, 46개월이 21%였다. Fore- arm graft의 누적개존율은 12개월이 55%, 24개월이 30%, 36개월이 30%, 46개월이 20%이었으며 upperarm graft의 누적 개존율은 12개 월이 83%, 24개 월이 41%, 29개 월이 41 %였다. 위의 결과를 볼때, 이차적인 동정 맥루술로서의 expanded PTFE graft는 아직 자가정맥에 의한 동정맥루술보다 개존율이 낮고많은 합병증을 갖고 있지만, 개존율을 높이기 위해서는 더 좋은 梔行仄袖\ulcorner개발과 술후 관심 있는 관찰 및 기능을 유지하기 위한 관심이 필요하다고 생각된다.

In order to investigate tribological effects of nano copper particles impregnated(CuN) on surface polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) on sealing wear and an experimental study was carried out to determine the wear behavior of copper nano-particles impregnation two kind thickness in super critical $CO_2$ liquid. Experimental results showed that the friction coefficients of CuN PTFE at the low sliding speed(0.44m/s) and the oil temperature ($60^{\circ}C$) were higher than that of virgin PTFE. And a thin nano copper particles impreganated thickness was formed on the surface in the PTFE and the specimen with this treatment has much better friction properties than the original one. Fortunately, at the high load(80 N) and the oil temperature, the friction coefficient of CuN PTFE was lower than that of virgin PTFE. This evidenced the load carrying capacity of CuN PTFE was much better than that of virgin PTFE under the high load condition(80 N) specially. Therefore, it can be concluded that the friction coefficient variation of CuN PTFE is very small but its wear rate decreases greatly with increase in sliding speed.

From January 1983 to December 1994, 48 cyanotic patients were underwent a subclavian artery-pulmonary artery shunt using polytetrafluoroethylene[PTFE for the purpose of improvement of reduced pulmonary blood flow. The diameters of the PTFE used were 4mm[4 cases , 5mm[36 cases , and 6mm[8 cases sizes. The effectiveness of modified Blalock-Taussig shunts was evaluated clinically and angiographically. There were 5 early deaths and 2 late deaths. There were 3 early shunt failures and 5 late shunt failures. The overall graft patency rate was 83.3%. Postoperative hemoglobin was reduced significantly[p = 0.0011 in comparison of the preoperative and postoperative hemoglobin, SaO2, PaO2, and cardiothoracic ratio.

Micro/nano tribological characteristics of PTFE coating films were experimentally studied. PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) modified polyethylene and low molecular weight PTFE were used as a coating materials. These films were deposited on Si-wafer (100) by IBAD (ion beam assisted deposition) method. The Ar ion beam sputtering was performed to change the surface topography of films using a hollow cathode ion gun under different Ar ion dose conditions in a vacuum chamber. Micro/nano tribological characteristics, water wetting angles and roughness were measured with a micro tribotester, SPM (scanning probe microscope), contact anglemeter and profilometer, respectively. The durability of the films were measured with macro tribotester. Results showed that the PTFE coating surfaces were converted to hydrophobic. The water contact angle of coated surfaces and surface roughness increased with the coating thickness. Adhesion and friction in micro and nano scale were governed by magnitude of normal load in soft material such as PTFE films. As the increase of sputtering time on low molecular weight PTFE films, the surface roughness was increased and nano adhesion and friction were decreased. The nano tribological characteristics of surfaces are mainly improved by chemical modification such as PTFE coating and given a synergy effect by the physical modification such as topographic modification.

Treatment for water repellency on the carbon supports of GDL which composed a part of MEA has been suggested as a solution to prevent flooding. PTFE is a fluoropolymer that has hydrophobic property and a PTFE emulsion was selected as waterproof agent in this investigation. Carbon paper was coated by PTFE emulsion with different particle size of 5~500 nm and 3~$5\;{\mu}m$ as various concentration. PTFE coated carbon paper has difference in weight variation changed proportionally at PTFE concentration and coating times. Then gas permeability of the coated carbon paper with emulsion of 3~$5\;{\mu}m$ PTFE was changed vastly. Characteristics of carbon paper coated with different PTFE emulsion were analyzed by FE-SEM, FT-IR spcetroscopy and were evaluated by weight variations, gas permeability and water contact angle.
