A study is made on the characterization of damage tolerance by spherical indentation in hardly coated layer structure with modest elastic modulus mismatch. A hard silicon nitride is prepared for the coating material and silicon nitride with 5wt% of boron nitride composites for underlayer. Hot pressing to eliminate the effect of interface delamination during the fracture makes strong interfacial bonding. The elastic modulus mismatch between the layers is not only large enough to suppress the surface crack initiation from the coating layer but sufficiently small to prevent the initiation of radial crack from the interface. The strength degradation of the layer structure after sphere contact indentation does not significantly occur, while the degradation of silicon nitride-boron nitride composite is critical at a high load and high number of contacts.

The aluminum-magnesium (Al-Mg) aklloys have been proved to be an effective solvent for synthesis of cubic-phase boron nitride (cBN) from hexagonal-phase boron nitride (hBN) at the conditions of high pressures and high temperatures (HP/HT). Various kinds of hBN powders having different crystallinity have been tested for cBN synthesis with Al-Mg solvents. The conversion ratio from hBN to cBN and the shape of synthesized cBN crystals appeared to be affected strongly by chemical composition and added amount of Al-Mg solvents as well as crystallinity of BN powders. As the magnesium content increased in the Al-Mg solvents, the conversion ratio increased and the size of cBN crystals became larger. The crystal facets developed well in the specimens with solvents having high Mg content. It was observed that a hBNlongrightarrowcBN transformation occurred more easily in the specimens having well crystallized hBN powders. Amorphous BN having much $B_2O_3$ impurity exhibited a low threshold temperature for transformation to cBN, which was attributed to crystallization of amorphous BN to well crystallized hBN prior to transformation into cBN with help of $B_2O_3$.

본 연구에서는, 열 전도성 충진제로 충진 된 에폭시복합체를 사용하여 금속 구리판에 이를 코팅한 기판이 제조되었다. 에폭시 복합체의 열전도도를 향상시키기 위해서는 에폭시 매트릭스에 있는 전도성 필러의 최적 분산을 통한 전도성 네트워크를 형성하게 하고, 인접한 필러 입자들 사이에서 열 저항 접합의 수를 감소시키는 것이 중요한 요소이다. 이는 에폭시는 열전도도가 0.2~0.3 W 밖에 안되기 때문에 높은 열전도도를 유지하기 위해선 열전도성 필러가 서로 연결되어 입자간에 갭이 적어야 열저항을 감소시킬수 있기 때문이다. 본 연구의 목적은 에폭시 수지에 Al₂O₃와 Boron Nitride (BN) 충진제를 균일하게 분산시켜 고방열 에폭시 복합체를 개발하는 데 있다. 그 결과, Al₂O₃와 Boron nitride Filler가 에폭시 수지 매트릭스에 서로 연결되어 에폭시 수지와 알루미나/Boron nitride 하이브리드 필러 간에 계면 공극 없이 분산되어 열전도도 특성 향상을 확인 할 수 있었고, 표면 처리한 s-BN 필러가 에폭시 수지의 매트릭스의 계면접착력을 향상시켰으며, 계면 공극을 최소화함에 따라 높은 열전도도 특성을 확보 할 수 있었다.

Structural properties of rf sputtered boron nitride films were studied as a function of deposition parameters such as nitrogen pressure, substrate temperature and substrate bias using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy. Composition and information on chemical bonding of resultant films was determined by XPS. XPS core level spectra showed that ratio of boron to nitrogen varied from 3.11 to 1.45 with respect to partial nitrogen pressure. Curve fitting of XPS spectra revealed three kinds of bonding mechanism of boron in the films. XPS peak positions of both B 1s and N 1s shifted to higher energy with higher nitrogen pressure as well as increase in substrate bias voltage. AES was used to see possible contamination of films by carbon or oxygen as well.

Herein, we investigated the thermal conductivity and thermal stability of natural rubber composite systems containing hybrid fillers of boron nitride (BN) and aluminum nitride (AlN). In the hybrid system, the bimodal distribution of polygonal AlN and planar BN particles provided excellent filler-packing efficiency and desired energy path for phonon transfer, resulting in high thermal conductivity of 1.29 W/mK, which could not be achieved by single filler composites. Further, polyethylene glycol (PEG) was compounded with a commonly used naphthenic oil, which substantially increased thermal conductivity to 3.51 W/mK with an excellent thermal stability due to facilitated energy transfer across the filler-filler interface. The resulting PEG-incorporated hybrid composite showed a high thermal degradation temperature (T₂) of 290℃, a low coefficient of thermal expansion of 26.4 ppm/℃, and a low thermal distortion parameter of 7.53 m/K, which is well over the naphthenic oil compound. Finally, using the Fourier's law of conduction, we suggested a modeling methodology to evaluate the cooling performance in thermal management system.

The interaction of thiazole drug with (6,0) zigzag single-walled boron nitride nanotube of finite length in gas and solvent phases was studied by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In both phases, the binding energy is negative and presenting characterizes an exothermic process. Also, the binding energy in solvent phase is more than that the gas phase. Binding energy corresponding to adsorption of thiazole on the BNNT model in the gas and solvent phases was calculated to be -0.34 and -0.56 eV, and about 0.04 and 0.06 electrons is transferred from the thiazole to the nanotube in the phases. The significantly changes in binding energies and energy gap values by the thiazole adsorption, shows the high sensitivity of the electronic properties of BNNT towards the adsorption of the thiazole molecule. Frontier molecular orbital theory (FMO) and structural analyses show that the low energy level of LUMO, electron density, and length of the surrounding bonds of adsorbing atoms help to the thiazole adsorption on the nanotube. Decrease in global hardness, energy gap and ionization potential is due to the adsorption of the thiazole, and consequently, in the both phases, stability of the thiazole-attached (6,0) BNNT model is decreased and its reactivity increased. Presence of polar solvent increases the electron donor of the thiazole and the electrophilicity of the complex. This study may provide new insight to the development of functionalized boron nitride nanotubes as drug delivery systems for virtual applications.

A radio-frequency (RF) Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) torch system was used for boron-nitride nano-tube (BNNT) synthesis. Because of electrodeless plasma generation, no electrode pollution and effective heating transfer during nano-material synthesis can be realized. For stable plasma generation, argon and nitrogen gases were injected with 60 kW grid power in the difference pressure from 200 Torr to 630 Torr. Varying hydrogen gas flow rate from 0 to 20 slpm, the electrical and optical plasma properties were investigated. Through the spectroscopic analysis of atomic argon line, hydrogen line and nitrogen molecular band, we investigated the plasma electron excitation temperature, gas temperature and electron density. Based on the plasma characterization, we performed the synthesis of BNNT by inserting 0.5~1 um hexagonal-boron nitride (h-BN) powder into the plasma. We analysis the structure characterization of BNNT by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) and TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy), also grasp the ingredient of BNNT by EELS (Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy) and Raman spectroscopy. We treated bundles of BNNT with the atmospheric pressure plasma, so that we grow the surface morphology in the water attachment of BNNT. We reduce the advancing contact angle to purity bundles of BNNT.

Poly(dimethyl siloxane)(PDMS, 실리콘 고무)의 열전도도 향상을 위하여 보론 나이트라이드과 탄소나노튜브를 열전도성 충전제로 사용하였다. 보론 나이트라이드의 함량은 0에서 100 phr로 증가시켰으며, 탄소나노튜브의 함량은 보론 나이트라이드의 함량을 100 phr로 고정시킨 상태에서 0에서 4 phr로 증가시켰다. 실리콘 고무 복합재료의 열전도도는 보론 나이트라이드 함량의 증가에 따라 증가하였으나, 탄소나노튜브를 추가로 첨가하더라도 열전도도 향상에 대한 효과는 미미하였다. 100 phr 함량의 보론 나이트라이드 함량에 탄소나노튜브를 충전 시 복합재료의 열분해가 가속화되는 예상치 못한 결과를 얻었다. 이를 해석하기 위하여 Horowitz-Metzger 방법을 이용하여 열분해 활성화 에너지를 계산하였다. 또한 보론 나이트라이드/탄소나노튜브가 충전된 실리콘 고무 복합재료의 경화거동, 전기저항 및 기계적 물성을 연구하였다.
