본 연구에서는 용량 및 장기 안정성을 개선하기 위하여 나노 실리콘 시트와 CNT를 정전기적 결합을 통해 피치가 코팅된 나노 실리콘 시트/CNT 복합체를 합성하였다. NaCl의 결정면에 스토버 법을 통해 제조된 나노 실리카 시트를 마그네슘 열 환원법을 사용하여 나노 실리콘 시트로 환원하였다. 산 처리를 통해 음으로 도전된 CNT와 APTES 표면처리를 통한 양으로 도전된 나노 실리콘 시트를 결합하여 나노 실리콘 시트/CNT 복합소재를 합성하였으며, 석유계 피치를 코팅하기 위하여 THF를 용매로 사용하였다. 제조된 음극복합소재의 물리적 특성은 FE-SEM, XRD, EDS를 통하여 분석하였고, LiPF₆ (EC:DMC:EMC = 1:1:1 vol%)를 전해액으로 사용하여 전지를 제조하였으며, 전기화학적 특성을 충·방전 사이클, 율속, differential capacity, EIS 테스트를 통해 조사하였다. 높은 조성의 실리콘과 전도성이 좋은 CNT를 사용할 경우 고용량 및 안정성이 우수한 음극소재를 제조할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 피치가 코팅된 나노 실리콘 시트/CNT 음극복합소재는 초기 방전 용량이 2344.9 mAh/g을 보였으며, 50 사이클 이후 용량 유지율이 81%로 피치가 코팅되지 않은 복합소재에 비해 개선된 전기화학적 성능을 확인할 수 있었다.

A porous metal-organic framework (MOF), MIL-101, was synthesized in the presence of sulfated zirconia (SZ) to produce acidic SZ/MIL-101 composites for the first time. The composites were characterized with XRD, nitrogen adsorption, FT-IR, scanning electron microscope, chemical analysis and so on. The composites (SZ/MIL-101s) were successfully applied in a liquid-phase esterification for a high yield of ester. This catalytic result of SZ/MIL-101, compared with that of pure SZ or MIL-101 (showing a negligible yield of ester), suggests that the SZ in the composite is highly active in the acid catalysis probably because of the well-dispersed active species of SZ. Moreover, the esterification is catalyzed in heterogeneous mode as confirmed by negligible esterification after filtration of the catalyst. Finally, microwaves can be efficiently applied both in the synthesis of the composites and the esterification reaction to accelerate the two processes of synthesis and esterification by about 5 times.

다층벽탄소나노튜브(MWCNT)와 titanium(IV) butoxide(TNB) 그리고 silver nitrate($AgNO_3$)를 이용하여 졸-겔법으로 $MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체와 $Ag-MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체를 제조하였다. 복합체에서의 Ag의 분산 및 구조를 주사전자현미경(SEM)과 투과전자현미경(FE-TEM)으로 관찰하였다. X선 회절 분석기(XRD)를 이용하여 복합체의 패턴을 보았을 때 anatase 결정구조를 확인할 수 있었다. 에너지 분광 분석기(EDX)로 원소성분을 분석한 결과 주요 원소인 C, Ti, O 그리고 Ag가 확인되었다. $TiO_2$ 입자는 MWCNT에 균일하게 분산되었고, Ag 입자는 튜브 표면에 고정되었다. 또한 UV 조사 시간에 따른 메틸렌블루의 분해를 통하여 광촉매 활성평가를 하였다. $Ag-MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체는 $MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체보다 높은 광분해능을 보였다. Ag의 높은 전도성이 $MWCNT-TiO_2$ 복합체의 광활성을 향상 시킨다는 결과를 나타냈다.

The present approach shows the use of nano-silica/nano-alumina in polyurethane (PU) matrix, which lead to significant improvements in the mechanical and thermal properties of the nano-composite. It is observed that with incorporation of 1% of nano-alumina into the PU matrix, there is an improvement in the tensile strength of around 50%, and for nano-silica the improvement is around 41%, at the same concentration. The morphological data shows that above 3% of the nano particles there are agglomerations in the nanocomposite. Again with the absorption of moisture, there is a decrease in the thermal and mechanical properties of the PU resin, but in this research work it is observed that with the incorporation of the nano particles, in the presence of absorbed moisture there is an improvement in mechanical and thermal properties of the composite, over that of the PU matrix.

The $(1-x)La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}MnO_3(LSMO)/xZnFe_2O_4$(ZFO) (x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.06 and 0.09) composites were prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction method. We investigated the structural properties, magnetic properties and electrical transport properties of (1-x)LSMO/xZFO composites using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field-cooled dc magnetization and magnetoresistance (MR) measurements. The XRD and SEM results indicate that LSMO and ZFO coexist in the composites and the ZFO mostly segregates at the grain boundaries of LSMO, which agreed well with the results of the magnetic measurements. The resistivity of the samples increased by the increase of the ZFO doping level. A clear metal-to-insulator (M-I) transition was observed at 360K in pure LSMO. The introduction of ZFO further downshifted the transition temperature (350K-160K) while the transition disappeared in the sample (x = 0.09) and it presented insulating/semiconducting behavior in the measured temperature range (100K to 400K). The MR was measured in the presence of the 10kOe field. Compared with pure LSMO, the enhancement of low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) was observed in the composites. It was clearly observed that the magnetoresistance effect of x = 0.03 was enhanced at room temperature range. These phenomena can be explained using the double-exchange (DE) mechanism, the grain boundary effect and the intrinsic transport properties together.

Oragnic/inorganic hybrid materials prepared by sol-gel method have rapidly become a fasci nating research field in materials science. In this study, Polyimide/$\textrm{TiO}_2$ composites were synthesized from nano-sized anatase $\textrm{TiO}_2$ and two types of Polyimide (BTDA-PPD, PMDA-ODA) by Sol-gel method. Nano-sized $\textrm{TiO}_2$ particles were prepared from $\textrm{TiOEt}_4$ solution. The composites were charcaterized by using XRD, TGA, IR, TEM, and Atomic Force Microscope(AFM). $\textrm{TiO}_2$ nano particles were dispersed well in polyimide matrix and the thermal stability of polyimide was improved with $\textrm{TiO}_2$ nano-sized particles.

Extraordinary properties of nanocomposites make them a primary replacement for many conventional materials. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, which is a frequent surgery in sport activities, is one of the fields in which nanocomposites could be utilized. In the present study, the mechanical properties of different porous scaffolds made from graphene nano-composites are presented ad load bearing capacity of these materials is calculated using finite element method. The numerical results are further compared with experimental published data. In addition, several geometrical and material parameters are analyzed to find the best configuration of nanocomposite scaffolds in reconstruction of ACL. Moreover, coating of detoxification chemicals are extremely easier on the nano-structured materials than conventional one. Detoxification potential of nano-composites in the injured body are also discussed in detail. The results indicated that nano-composite could be successfully used in place of auto- and allografts and also instead of conventional metallic screws in reconstruction of ACL.

Surface contamination and leakage current have caused operating problems. A flashover in a substation may result in destruction of an insulator or many others electrical equipment. Engineering plastics have good characteristic (light weight, good productivity and little of void) as compare with epoxy or porcelain insulators. Outdoor insulator must have resistance to contamination. However, it isn't suited to outdoor insulator because it is not hydrophobic. RTV(Room temperature vulcanizing) has a good property of hydrophobic and micro-filler. nano-filler have characteristics of obstructing exothermic reaction. In order to reduce the incidence of insulator flashover and damage, the silicon rubber contained with micro, nano-filler coating on surface of engineering plastics. In this paper, it compares tracking resistance, leakage current of the engineering plastic coated RTV with that of non-coated engineering plastic. And filled-composites performed much better than non-filled composites.

Only the power is converted from AC to DC, in accordance with IEC 60587 based test method, in order to develop the LSR(Liquid Silicone Rubber) insulator material for HVDC, the experiment of Inclined Plate Tracking and Erosion Resistance was conducted. A contaminant (2.5 mS/cm: ammonium chloride) was applied at a rate of 0.3 ml/min and a voltage of ${\pm}3.5kV$, and was evaluated on the basis of 60 mA/2s. The samples were prepared by dispersing LSR/Nano silica_25wt% Composites in LSR. The erosion phenomena of surface discharge and tracking due to DC polarity and negative polarity were measured by image, leakage current maximum and thermal camera. The thermal imaging camera measured the surface temperature generated by the joule heat of the leakage current due to the drying discharge and the conductive current. After the measurement, the tracking and erosion mechanisms were evaluated for erosion weight, erosion depth and erosion length. Positive and negative polarity of LSR/Nano Silica_25wt% composite Tracking and erosion results show that positive polarity is more severe than negative polarity.

In this work, the electromagnetic interference shielding effectiveness (EMI-SE) of carbon nanotube/carbon fiber-reinforced HDPE matrix composites are investigated with various preparation conditions, such as the carbon fiber and carbon nanotube content, the presence of metal additives, as well as mixing speed and time. It was found that the EMI-SE of the composites increased with filler contents and metal additives. These results indicate that the content and length of carbonaceous fillers determine the electric networks in the composites, resulting in the control of the EMI-SE of the composites.
