Using various surfactants, multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) was dispersed in organic solvent, isopropylalcohol(IPA). To refine the MWNT and give the functional group, MWNT was treated with sulfuric acid/nitric acid(v/v=3/1). The cationic, nonionic and anionic surfactants were used as MWNT dispersion agents in the organic solvent. Dispersion effect of various surfactants was observed by optical microscope and HR-TEM. Surface resistivities of MWNT dispersions were measured after coating on PET film. MWNT was dispersed well by poly vinyl pyrrolidone(PVP), nonionic surfactant.

레이다나 전자장비에서 복사되어 나오는 전자기파의 차폐는 상업적으로나 군사적으로 매우 중요한 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 다중벽 탄소나노튜브가 모재에 첨가된 섬유강화 복합재의 전자기적 특성을 고찰하기에 앞서, 다중벽 카본나노튜브와 모재로 이루어진 복합재료를 제작하고 그것에 대한 전자기적 특성을 고찰하였다. 복합재료의 제작 방법을 확립하였고, X-band (8.2GHz~12.4GHz)에서 첨가량과 공정변수에 따른 다중벽 탄소나노튜브/에폭시 복합재료의 유전율을 측정하였다. 또한 MWNT의 재응집 현상을 관찰하였고, 이것이 물성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 복합재료의 유전율은 MWNT의 분산도에 영향을 받았고, MWNT의 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 거의 선형적인 증가를 보였다.

The electromagnetic intereference(EMI) shielding is very essential for commercial and military purposes. We fabricated multi-walled carbon nanoube(MWNT)/epoxy composites and studied the electromagnetic characteristics of the composites before we study the characteristics of MWNT-filled glass fiber-reinforced composites. After setting up the fabrication process, we measured the permittivities of MWNT/epoxy composites with process variables and MWNT concentrations in X-band(8.2GHz- 12.4GHz). Process variables changed the degree of dispersion, which influenced permittivities and permittivities increased rapidly from 0.5wt% to 1.0wt%.

Multi -walled carbon nanotube(MWNT)/poly(methyl methacrylate) composites were fabricate d through film casting. Manufacturing process was established using a ultrasonic cleaner and a homogenizer. Acetone was used as a solvent to melt PMMA and mix with MWNT. The ultrasonic cleaner performed an important role in producing MWNT/MMA nanocomposites. Ultrasonic energy was utilized to disperse MWNT in acetone. Also, melting PMMA in acetone and mixing MWNT and PMMA were achieved using the homogenizer. It was confirmed that the nanohlbes were well dispersed in PMMA according to SEM images.

A method of functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) at room temperature using dry ozone gas is described. The resulting MWNT were characterized by Fourier transform infrared, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. Combined to these analyses and solubility in liquids, it could be concluded that the dry ozone gas exposure introduces polar functional groups such as carboxylic groups to MWNT similar to acidic modification of MWNT. Particularly, the stable dispersion of MWNT in water after ozone treatment above a critical level could be obtained, implying potential bio-application. The hydrophilic functional groups on the MWNT introduced by ozone oxidation were helpful in improving the interaction with functional groups in PA6 such as $-NH_2$ and -CONH- resulting in improved mechanical properties.

The electrical, morphological, and mechanical properties of poly carbonate (PC)/multi-walled carbon nan-otube (MWNT) composites were studied by electrical conductivity, electromagnetic interference shielding efficiency (EMI SE), scanning electron microscopy, and tensile strength measurements. In the electrical property analysis of the PC/MWNT composites, the percolation threshold of the PC/MWNT composites was observed between 1.5 and 2.5 wt% MWNT content. From the electrical conductivity and EMI SE studies, the theoretical values of the EMI SE were in good agreement with the experimental values of the EMI SE. From the morphology of the PC/MWNT composites, it was observed that MWNT is dispersed homogenously in the PC matrix. From the electrical conductivity and morphological studies, it was suggested that the percolation threshold of the PC/MWNT composites is related with the morphological results in that MWNT is apparently interconnected to form an electrical pathway. The mechanical properties of the PC/MWNT composites peaked at the MWNT content of 2.5 wt%.

Rheological and electrical properties of the polycarbonate (PC) / multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) were studied. The MWNT was funtoinalized by treating with the hydrogen peroxide ($H_{2}O_{2}$). The electrical conductivity showed higher value for the PC/MWNT ($H_{2}O_{2}$ treated, freeze drying) composites compared that of the PC/MWNT ($H_{2}O_{2}$ treated, thermal drying) composites. From the results of the morphological, rheological, and electrical properties of the PC/MWNT composites, it is suggested that the electrical and rheological properties of the PC/MWNT composites are affected by the MWNT-MWNT network structure which is related with the MWNT morphologies such as the degree of aggregation and aspect ratio of the MWNT.

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.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have attracted an increasing attention due to their superior mechanical properties and potential application in industries. The strength of CNT has been predicted or calculated through several simulation techniques but actual experiments on stress-strain behavior are rare due to its dimensional limit, nanoscale positioning/manipulation, and instrumental resolution. We have attempted to observe straining responses of a multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) with different growth methods by performing an in-situ tensile testing in a scanning electron microscope. Linear deformation and fracture behaviors of MWNT were successfully observed and its force-displacement curve was also measured from the bending stiffness and displacement of the force sensor and manipulator. We also obtained different tensile load of carbon nanotube with different growth methods.

A single-wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) has been studied as a material of Nano-Eletro-Mechanical-System (NEMS) device together with various nanowires. In order for oscillation of a multi-wall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) or a single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) on plane surface, it needs suspension of a CNT across trench electrodes. So we propose fabrication method of a MWCNT resonator using dielectrophoresis and show successful results of suspeneded MWNT. Thin electrodes with large gaps could not suspend small diameter MWNT but thicker electrodes could. Thin MWNT could be suspended only when the electrode gap was reduced.
