Because particulate matter has emerged as a major contributor to air pollution, the tire industry has conducted studies to reduce particulate matters from tires by improving tire performance. In this study, we compared the conventional blending method, in which rubber, filler, and additives are mixed simultaneously, to the Y-blending method, in which masterbatches are blended. We manufactured carbon black (CB)-filled natural rubber (NR)/butadiene rubber (BR) blend and silica-filled epoxidized NR/BR blend compounds to compare the effects of the two blending methods on the physical properties of the compounds and the amount of particulate matter generated. The Y-blending method provided uniform filler distribution in the heterogeneous rubber matrix, improved processability, and exhibited low rolling resistance. This method also improved physical properties owing to the excellent filler-rubber interaction. The results obtained from measuring the generation of particulate matter indicated that, the Y-blending method reduced PM_2.5 particulate matter generation from the CB-filled and silica-filled compounds by 38% and 60%, and that of PM₁₀ by 29% and 67%, respectively. This confirmed the excellence of the Y-blending method regarding the physical properties of truck bus radial tire tread compounds and reduced particulate matter generated.

입자강화복합재료에 관한 연구는 오래 전부터 수행되어왔다. 최근 활발한 연구가 이루어지고 있는 나노복합재료도 역시 입자강화복합재료의 한 종류라 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 섬유강화 복합재료의 모재로서 사용되어질 수 있는 다중벽탄소나노튜브/에폭시 복합재료를 제작하고 그 물성을 고찰하였다. 본 연구에서 정립한 제작 공정을 사용하여 제작 된 다중벽 탄소나노튜브/에폭시 복합재료의 인장 물성을 MWNT의 첨가량에 따라 고찰하였다 0.5wt%의 MWNT를 첨가 하였을 때, 인장강성은 19%, 인장강토에서는 12%의 증가를 보였다. 또한 경화시 발생하는 재응집 현상을 관찰하고, 기계적 물성을 더 높이 항상시키기 위해서는 이 현상을 억제해야 함을 확인하였다.

In order to investigate the behavior of fatigue crack growth of SiC-particulate- reinforced Al-Si alloy composites, fatigue tests using single edge notched tension(SENT) specimens were performed. Composite materials were manufactured by using both permanent die casting and extrusion processes with different volume fractions of $10\%\;and\;20\%$. $SiC_p-reinfurced$ Al-Si composites showed the increased levels of threshold stress intensity factor range, ${\Delta}K_{th}$, for the increased volume fractions of SiC particles, which implies the increased fatigue crack growth resistance at the threshold or low ${\Delta}K$ levels, compared to the unreinforced Al-Si alloy. In the Paris region, however, the composites showed the increased rate of crack growth resulting in the unfavorable effects on the fatigue crack growth resistance. Critical stress intensity factor range at unstable crack growth leading to final fracture decreased as the volume fraction of SiC particle increased, because of the reduced fracture toughness of the composites. Extruded materials showed higher threshold and critical values than the cast materials.

Since the emergence of domestically produced automobiles in 1964, the number of automobiles in circulation in South Korea has increased constantly. With this rapidly increasing number of automobiles, automobile-induced environmental pollution has become an issue of great concern, especially with regard to air pollution. Of the carbon composites contained in automobile exhaust gas, PAHs are known to be carcinogenic and highly deleterious to humans and thus need to be urgently mitigated. To address this issue of PAHs, this study was conducted to estimate qualitative of particulate PAHs contained in carbon composites in automobile exhaust gas, by capturing all particulate matter discharged from the latter. To allow for differentiated analyses, the automobiles investigated were divided into 4 groups: gasoline vehicle, motocycle, diesel vehicle, and LPG vehicle. Samples were analyzed using two methods. First, in-depth analysis was performed on organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) composites with analysis parameters, using the Thermal Optical Transmittance Method (NIOSH 5040). Second, for the examination of particulate PAHs, GC/MSD was used to analyze the 16 PAH species specified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The analyses yielded the findings that diesel vehicles had the highest mass concentration ($2,007{\mu}g/m^3$), followed by motocycle ($1,066{\mu}g/m^3$), LPG vehicle ($392{\mu}g/m^3$), and gasoline vehicles ($270{\mu}g/m^3$). The highest carbon concentrations in total particulate matter by vehicle weight were produced from LPG vehicle (79.8%), followed by gasoline vehicle (77.4%), motocycle (69.8%), and diesel vehicle (59.1%).

Both an unreinforced $Al_2O_3$/Al matrix and a ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ particulate reinforced composite have been produced by the oxidation of an Al surface doped with NaOH in the absence of any other dopant. Fabrication of the matrix was initiated by the formation of $NaAlO_2$, which provides a favorable surface structure for the matrix formation by breaking the protective $Al_2O_3$ layer on Al. During the matrix growth, the external surface of the growth front was covered with a very thin sodium-rich oxide. A cyclic formation process of the sodium-rich oxide on the growth surface was proposed for the sodium-induced directed metal oxidation process. This process involves dissolution of the sodium-rich oxide, motion of Na to the growth front, and re-formation of the oxide on the surface. Near-net-shape composites were fabricated by infiltrating an $Al_2O_3$/Al matrix into a ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ particulate preform, without growth barrier materials. The infiltration distance increased almost linearly in the NaOH-doped preform.

SiC가 강화된 금속복합재료는 기존의 금속재료에 비하여 비탄성계수와 비강도가 높기 때문에 자동차 및 항공산업에 많은 응용이 기대되고 있다. 금속복합재료의 파손기구는 적용된 하중에 의한 미시적 손상의 축적에 의해 많은 영향을 받기 때문에 금속복합재료의 광범위한 응용을 위해서는 금속복합재료가 반복 하중을 받을 때 미시적 파손기구를 이해하는 것이 대단히 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 SiCp/A356 금속복합재료의 미시적 손상 축적을 모니터링 하기 위하여 초음파와 음향방출기법을 적용하였다. 반복하중의 증가에 따라 초음파의 속도와 감쇠의 변화는 각 미시적 손상기구에 따라 3영역으로 나눌 수 있었다. 또한 각 영역에서 발생하는 AE 신호의 특징은 초음파의 속도 및 감쇠 변화와 비교, 분석되었다.

입자강화 알루미늄 복합재료의 고온거동을 조사하기위하여, 온도 623K~823K에서 $10^{-2}$ ~1.0 S$^{-1}$ 변형속도로 열간 압축 가공 시험을 행하여 복합재의 고온유동응력에 미치는 강화입자의 첨가량, 강화입자의 종류 및 크기와 변형속도 및 변형온도 등의 영향을 조사하였다. 강화입자의 체적분율이 증가함에 따라서 고온유동음력은 증가하였으나 항복점에서의 차이가 변형량이 증가되어도 그대로 유지되고 있었다. 변형속도 민감도(m)로 볼때 SiCp첨가된 복합재가 A1$_2$O$_3$p를 첨가한 복합재보다 비교적 균일하게 가공할 수 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 823K에서 최적변형속도는 0.1Sec$^{-1}$ 이었다. 변형에 필요한 활성화 에너지는 A6061기지금속이 290KJmole$^{-1}$, A6061-20vo1% SiCp = 327KJmo1e$^{-1}$, A6061-20vo1% $Al_2$O$_3$= 531KJmole$^{-1}$이었다. 이것은 알루미늄의 자기활성화에너지 138KJmo1e$^{-1}$보다 큰 값으로 A1$_2$O$_3$강화복합재료가 SiCp 강화 복합재료보다 열간가공이 어렵다는 것을 나타내는 것이다.
