Since crack detection for laminated composites in-service is effective to improve the structural reliability of laminated composites, it have been tried to detect cracks of laminated composites by various nondestructive methods. An electric potential method is one of the widely used approaches for detection of cracks for carbon fiber composites, since the electric potential method adopts the electric conductive carbon fibers as reinforcements and sensors and the adoption of carbon fibers as sensors does not bring strength reduction induced by embedding sensors into the structures such as optical fibers. However, the application of the electric method is limited only to electrically conductive composite materials. Recently, a piezoelectric method using piezoelectric characteristics of epoxy adhesives has been successfully developed for the adhesive joints because it can monitor continuously the damage of adhesively bonded structures without producing any defects. Polymeric materials for the matrix of composite materials have piezoelectric characteristics similarly to adhesive materials, and the fracture of composite materials should lead to the fracture of polymeric matrix. Therefore, it seems to be valid that the piezoelectric method can be applied to monitoring the damage of composite materials. In this research, therefore, the feasibility study of the damage monitoring for composite materials by piezoelectric method was conducted. Using carbon fiber epoxy composite and glass fiber composite, charge output signals were measured and analyzed during the static and fatigue tests, and the effect of fiber materials on the damage monitoring of composite materials by the piezoelectric method was investigated.

본 연구에서는 마이크로 강섬유와 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(multi-walled carbon nanotube, MWCNT)를 혼입한 전도성 모르타르의 발열성능, 휨강도 및 미세구조를 분석하기 위해 실험적으로 수행하였다. 전도성 모르타르 발열성능 및 휨강도 시험에서 MWCNT의 혼입 농도는 시멘트 중량 대비 0.0wt%, 0.5wt% 및 1.0wt%로 선정하였으며, 마이크로 강섬유는 부피 대비 2.0vol%로 혼입하였다. 발열성능 실험은 다양한 인가전압 (DC 10V, 30V, 60V) 및 상이한 전극간격 (40 mm, 120 mm)을 매개변수로 수행하였으며, 양생 재령 28일에서 휨강도를 측정하여 일반 모르타르와 비교, 분석하였다. 더 나아가, 전계방사 주사전자현미경(field emission scanning electron microscope, FE-SEM)을 이용하여 전도성 모르타르의 표면 형상과 미세구조를 분석하였다. 그 결과 MWCNT의 혼입 농도와 인가전압이 증가할수록 발열성능이 향상되었으며, 전극간격이 좁을수록 발열성능이 더욱 향상되는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 MWCNT의 혼입 농도를 1.0wt%까지 추가하더라도 발열성능은 크게 향상되지 못하였다. 휨강도 시험결과, PM 시편과 MWCNT를 혼입한 시편을 제외한 모든 시편의 평균 휨강도가 4.5 MPa 이상으로 나타나 마이크로 강섬유 혼입에 따른 높은 휨강도를 보였다. FE-SEM 이미지 분석을 통해 시멘트 매트릭스 내 마이크로 강섬유와 MWCNT 입자 사이에 전도성 네트워크가 형성되는 것을 확인하였다.

Conductive polymer composites with high electrical and mechanical properties are in demand for bipolar plates of phosphoric acid fuel cells (PAFC). In this study, composites based on natural graphite/fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) and different ratios of carbon black are mixed and hot formed into bars. The overall content of natural graphite is replaced by carbon black (0.2 wt% to 3.0 wt%). It is found that the addition of carbon black reduces electrical resistivity and density. The density of composite materials added with carbon black 3.0 wt% is 2.168 g/㎤, which is 0.017 g/㎤ less than that of non-additive composites. In-plane electrical resistivity is 7.68 μΩm and through-plane electrical resistivity is 27.66 μΩm. Compared with non-additive composites, in-plane electrical resistivity decreases by 95.7 % and through-plane decreases by 95.9 %. Also, the bending strength is about 30 % improved when carbon black is added at 2.0 wt% compared to non-additive cases. The decrease of electrical resistivity of composites is estimated to stem from the carbon black, which is a conductive material located between melted FEP and acts a path for electrons; the increasing mechanical properties are estimated to result from carbon black filling up pores in the composites.

Smartphone is integrated into the daily lives of all types of people not even young generation. A touch screen display is a primary input device of a smart phone, a tablet computer, etc. While there are many tough technologies in existence, resistive and capacitive are dominant and currently lead the touch screen panel industry. And a capacitive touch screen panel widely used in smart phones is coated with a material that stores electrical charges. In this study, we tried to manufacture gloves produced with electro-conducting leather as a tool to operate a touch panel screen. Therefore, electrically conductive materials, Polyaniline(PANI), Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), and Carbon nanotubes (CNT) were applied to the surface of leather to be used as a touching operator for capacitive touch screen panel. The leather samples were treated by simple painting method; firstly, they were painted with aqueous solution containing each of the electrically conductive materials and then dried. This cycle was repeated three times. Consequently, the treated leather samples showed electrical conductivity and reasonable working performance to the capacitive touch screen. And, PANI showed the best performance and highest electrical conductivity, and then PEDOT and, CNT in decreasing order. This is because the solubilities of PANI and PEDOT show higher than dispersibility of CNT. Thus, the concentration of conducting polymers was greater than that of CNT in the treating solutions.

새로운 복합재료 제조 기술인 electron-ion technology (EIT)를 이용하여 전도성 탄소섬유/고밀도 폴리에틸렌 (CF/HDPE) 복합필름을 제조하고 탄소섬유 에폭시 sizing이 제조된 필름의 체적비저항과 인장강도 그리고 계면 특성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 에폭시 sizing은 tunneling 효과를 좋게 해서 복합재료 필름의 전도성을 향상시키는 반면, 극성인 에폭시 sizing은 무극성인 폴리에틸렌과의 친화성이 없어서 탄소섬유와 폴리에틸렌간의 계면결합력을 감소시키므로 에폭시 sized 탄소섬유(CF(S))는 unsized 탄소섬유(CF(U))에 비하여 필름의 체적비저항과 인장강도를 감소시켰다. 에폭시 sizing은 탄소섬유의 nucleating efficiency를 떨어뜨려서 CF(S)/HDPE 필름이 CF(U)/HDPE 필름보다 불규칙적이고 덜 발달된 transcrystalline layer를 형성함을 관찰할 수 있었다.

In this paper, novel carbon nanotube (CNT)-filled Solderable electrically conductive adhesive (ECA) and joining process have been developed. To investigate the bonding characteristics of CNT-filled Solderable ECA, three types of Solderable ECAs with different CNT weight percent (0, 0.1, 1wt%) were formulated. For a joining process, the quad flat package (QFP) chip was used. The QFP chip had a size of $14{\times}14{\times}2.7$ mm and a 1 mm lead pitch. The test board had a Cu daisy-chained pattern with 18 ${\mu}m$ thick. After the bonding process, the bonding characteristics such as morphology of conduction path, electrical resistance and pull strength were measured for each formulated ECAs. As a result, the electrical and mechanical bonding characteristics for a QFP joints using CNT-filled ECA were improved about 10% compared to those of QFP joints using ECA without CNT.

Objectives: The purposes of this study were to compare the surface resistance of cassettes according to the material, and to evaluate the wall deposition of carbon nanotubes(CNTs) by electrostatic loss in the inner wall of the cassette. Methods: Surface resistance was measured for three types of cassettes(25 mm polypropylene conductive cowl, 25 mm and 37 mm clear styrene cassettes) with a surface resistance meter. Also, electrostatic wall loss was measured at different weights of CNTs depending on the cassette. CNTs were laid on a weight dish with the cassette for five minutes to provide sufficient time to attach on the wall. Wipe sampling was performed to collect CNTs deposited on the wall and elemental carbon, known as a surrogate for CNTs, was analyzed. Results: The cassette with conductive materials(18% of black carbon) showed the lowest surface resistance($<1.21{\times}10^3{\Omega}$). Cassettes made from clear polystyrene showed the relatively highest surface resistance(25 mm: $10.02{\times}10^9{\Omega}$, 37 mm: $10.59{\times}10^9{\Omega}$). This means that particles are more likely to stick to the internal wall of styrene cassettes due to electrostatic electricity. This may lead to an underestimation of the airborne concentration of CNTs. The experiment showed that EC was not detected when using a 25 mm conductive cowl cassette, while EC was detected at the internal wall of 25 mm and 37 mm polystyrene cassettes. Conclusions: This study confirms that cassettes with a conductive cowl have low surface resistance and are more appropriate for CNT sampling. In addition, this finding could be applied for other types of particulate, especially regarding electrostatic charge and sampling.

Here, we describe a versatile strategy for precise control of the optoelectrical properties of the single walled carbon nanotube (SWNT)/silane binder hybrid films by noncovalent hybridization. Stable SWNT/silane binder solutions were prepared by direct mixing of high concentration CNT solutions and silane sol solutions. The critical binder content was determined by varying the amount of binder in the SWNT/binder solutions. A binder content of 50 wt% was used to prepare the other SWNT/binder solutions. This study demonstrates how the intermolecular interactions between the SWNTs and the silanes can affect the conductivity of the CNT/binder network films by characterizing the optoelectrical and Raman spectroscopic properties of the SWNT/silane films containing silane binders with various functional groups. The use of the PTMS binder with phenyl groups was found to be most effective in the fabrication of transparent and conductive films on glass substrates. Such a precise control of the optoelectrical properties of SWNT/binder films can be useful to fabricate the high performance conductive thin films, with ramifications for understanding the fundamental intermolecular interaction in carbon materials science.

The electrochemical behavior of the $LiCoO_2$ electrode, containing carbon black as a conductor, depends upon the nature and characteristics of carbon black. In this study, six different kinds of carbon blacks were employed to investigate the relationship between the properties of carbon blacks and electrochemical characteristics of the electrode. The larger amount of surface oxygen functional groups brought the lower electrical conductivity for the carbon blacks. The electrical conductivity of carbon blacks was closely related to the impurities such as ash and volatile content. The rate capability and cyclability of the electrode were improved with the higher conductivity of carbon blacks used. So, it can be concluded that high conductive carbon black plays an important role as a conductor for high rate of charge-discharge capability and initial efficiency.
