Graphene oxide (GO) has been of particular interest because it provides unique properties due to its high surface area, chemical functionality and ease of mass production. GO is produced by chemical exfoliation of graphite and is decorated with oxygen-containing groups such as phenol hydroxyl, epoxide groups and ionizable carboxylic acid groups. Due to the presence of those functional groups, GO can be utilized as a novel platform for hybrid nanocomposites in chemical synthetic approaches. In this work, GO-$SnO_2$ nanocomposites have been prepared through the spontaneous formation of molecular hybrids. When $SnO_2$ precursor solution and GO suspension were simply mixed, $Sn^{2+}$ was spontaneously formed into $SnO_2$ nanoparticles upon the deoxygenation of GO. Through further chemical reduction by adding hydrazine, reduced GO-$SnO_2$ hybrid was finally created. Our investigation for the electrocapacitive properties of hybrid electrode showed the enhanced performance (389 F/g), compared with rGO-only electrode (241 F/g). Our approach offers a scalable, robust synthetic route to prepare graphene-based nanocomposites for supercapacitor electrode via spontaneous hybridization.

스테아릴트리메틸암모늄 이온만 삽입된 몬모릴로나이트는 나노복합재료를 형성하지 못하였다. 그러나 스테아릴트리메틸암모늄과 m-페닐렌디암모늄 염이 함께 삽입된 몬모릴로나이트와 diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A(DGEBA)와 가열하면 중합반응이 일어나 폴리에테르-몬모릴로나이트의 나노복합재료를 합성하였다. 합성한 나노복합재료를 XRD과 TEM을 통하여 에폭시 메트릭스내의 몬모릴로나이트의 실리케이트층이 한층 균일하게 분산되어 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 각각의 실리케이트 층간거리는 $250{\sim}500{\AA}$ 정도였다.

Polymer/layered silicate nanocomposites have recently received considerable attention from both academia and industry as an effective way to overcome the shortcomings of conventional polymer. When the silicate layers are exfoliated and randomly distributed in polymer matrix, the nanocomposites exhibit improved mechanical, thermal and barrier properties. (omitted)

Mechanical exfoliation 방법에 의해 제작된 그래핀(Few Layer Graphene: FLG) 소자에 양성자를 조사하여 의도적으로 결함의 수를 증가시켰다. 그 후 공기중에 노출되었을 때와 진공상태에서 보관한 후에 측정된 전기적 특성을 확인하였다. 또한 UV에 노출시킨 후와 진공상태에서 열처리를 진행한 후에 전기적 특성의 변화들을 관찰하였다. 진공상태에서 보관한 그래핀 소자는 표면에 흡착되어 도펀트로 작용하게되는 species의 수가 감소하기 때문에 전류가 감소하는 결과를 나타내었다. UV에 노출된 상태에서는 오존에 의한 영향으로 약간의 전류 상승이 일어나지만 케리어의 이동도가 감소하게 된다. 반면 진공상태에서 열처리 후에는 전류는 매우 감소하게 되지만 결함과 도펀트에 의한 케리어 산란 현상이 감소하게 되므로 이동도는 크게 증가하게 된다.

Polycarbonate (PC)/sulfonated polystyrene (SPS) ionomer/organoclay nanocomposites were prepared by a solution intercalation process using the SPS ionomer as a compatibilizer. The effect of an organoclay on the melt crystallization behavior of the ionomer compatibilized PC were examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The melt crystallization behavior of PC was dependent on the extent of organoclay dispersion. The effect of the ionomer loading and cation size on intercalation/exfoliation efficiency of the organoclay in PC/SPS ionomer matrix was also studied using wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Dispersion of the organically modified clay in the polymer matrix improved with increasing ionomer compatibilizer loadings and cation size. The SPS ionomer compatibilized PC/organoclay nanocomposite showed enhanced melt crystallization compared to the SPS ionomer/PC blend. Well dispersed organoclay nanocomposites showed better crystallization than the poorly dispersed clay nanocomposites. These nanocomposites also showed better thermal stability than the SPS ionomer/PC blend.

Mesoporous nickel intercalated aluminosilicate nanohybrid has been synthesized through a recombination reaction between the colloidal suspension of exfoliated montmorillonite nanosheets and aqueous nickel acetate solution. According to powder X-ray diffraction and field emission-scanning electron microscopic analyses, the intercalation of nickel species expands significantly the basal spacing of the host montmorillonite clay and the crystallites of the intercalation compound are assembled to form a house-of-card structure. $N_2$ adsorption-desorption isotherm measurements with BJH pore analyses clearly demonstrated that the porosity of the intercalate originates mainly from mesopores (diameter $\sim50\;\AA$) formed by the house-of-card type stacking of clay crystallites. From FT-IR and X-ray absorption spectroscopic analyses, it becomes certain that intercalated nickel ion is stabilized in an isolated $NiO_6$ octahedral unit. The present mesoporous intercalation compound is expected to be applicable as efficient catalysts or absorbents.

In this wort, the $Na^+-MMT$ has organically modified with silane intercalant to prepare the polymer/clay nanocomposites. The pH. X-ray diffraction (XRD), and contact angles were used to analyze the surface properties of clay and the exfoliation phenomenon of clay interlayer, The mechanical interfacial properties of epoxy/clay nanocomposites were investigated by three-point bending test. From the experimental results. the surface modification made by silane intercalant on clay surface leads to an increase of distance of silicate layers, surface acid value. and electron acceptor parameter of organoclay. The treatments are also necessary and useful for epoxy to intercalate into the interlayer by interacting of electron donor-accepter between basic epoxy and clay surface. The mechanical interfacial properties of the nanocomposites was improved by the presence of dispersed clay nanolayer containing low content of organoclay in comparison with the conventional, which increase the interfacial adhesion between dispersed clay and epoxy resins.

Graphene has recently attracted significant attention because of its unique optical and electrical properties. For practical device applications, special attention has to be paid to the synthesis of high-quality graphene on large-area substrates. Graphene has been synthesized by eloborated mechanical exfoliation of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite, chemical reduction of exfoliated grahene oxide, thermal decomposition of silicon carbide, and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) on Ni or Cu substrates. Among these techniques, CVD is superior to the others from the perspective of technological applications because of its possibility to produce a large size graphene. PECVD has been demonstrated to be successful in synthesizing various carbon nanostructures, such as carbon nanotubes and nanosheets. Compared with thermal CVD, PECVD possesses a unique advantage of additional high-density reactive gas atoms and radicals, facilitating low-temperature, rapid, and controllable synthesis. In the current study, we report results in synthesizing of high-quality graphene films on a Ni films at low temperature. Controllable synthesis of quality graphene on Cu foil through inductively-coupled plasma CVD (ICPCVD), in which the surface chemistry is significantly different from that of conventional thermal CVD, was also discussed.

Graphene is an interesting material because it has remarkable properties, such as high intrinsic carrier mobility, good thermal conductivity, large specific surface area, high transparency, and high Young's modulus values. It is produced by mechanical and chemical exfoliation, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and epitaxial growth. In particular, large-area and uniform single- and few-layer growth of graphene is possible using transition metals via a thermal CVD process. In this study, we utilize polystyrene and boron oxide, which are a carbon precursor and a doping source, respectively, for synthesis of pristine graphene and boron doped graphene. We confirm the graphene grown by the polystyrene and the boron oxide by the optical microscope and the Raman spectra. Raman spectra of boron doped graphene is shifted to the right compared with pristine graphene and the crystal quality of boron doped graphene is recovered when the synthesis time is 15 min. Sheet resistance decreases from approximately $2000{\Omega}/sq$ to $300{\Omega}/sq$ with an increasing synthesis time for the boron doped graphene.
