A novel flame retardant and antibacterial composite membrane coating for wood surfaces was prepared by adding POSS-based phosphorous nitrogen flame retardant (later referred to as NH₂-POSS) and silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) to chitosan (CS). The effects of NH₂-POSS content (mass fractions of CS 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%) on the structure and properties of the composite membrane coating on wood were investigated. The composite film was prepared by the method of blending and ducting. Contact angle, tensile property and antibacterial effects of the composite film were measured, and infrared spectroscopy was used. The results show that the addition of NH₂-POSS can not only improve the toughness of the membrane, but also the flame retardancy of the membrane, which improves the application of the membrane in wood products. However, with the addition of NH₂-POSS, the transparency of the composite membrane was weakened. The inhibitory effect of the composite membrane on the growth of Escherichia coli was enhanced with the increase in Ag NPs. This research provides a foundation for the application of functional wood.

Vibration analysis of embedded functionally graded (FG)-carbon nanotubes (CNT)-reinforced piezoelectric cylindrical shell subjected to uniform and non-uniform temperature distributions are presented. The structure is subjected to an applied voltage in thickness direction which operates in control of vibration behavior of system. The CNT reinforcement is either uniformly distributed or functionally graded (FG) along the thickness direction indicated with FGV, FGO and FGX. Effective properties of nano-composite structure are estimated through Mixture low. The surrounding elastic foundation is simulated with spring and shear constants. The material properties of shell and elastic medium constants are assumed temperature-dependent. The motion equations are derived using Hamilton's principle applying first order shear deformation theory (FSDT). Based on differential cubature (DC) method, the frequency of nano-composite structure is obtained for different boundary conditions. A detailed parametric study is conducted to elucidate the influences of external applied voltage, elastic medium type, temperature distribution type, boundary conditions, volume percent and distribution type of CNT are shown on the frequency of system. In addition, the mode shapes of shell for the first and second modes are presented for different boundary conditions. Numerical results indicate that applying negative voltage yields to higher frequency. In addition, FGX distribution of CNT is better than other considered cases.

The aluminum (Al)/copper oxide (CuO) complex is known as the most promising material for thermite reactions, releasing a high heat and pressure through ignition or thermal heating. To improve the reaction rate and wettability for handling safety, nanosized primary particles are applied on Al/CuO composite for energetic materials in explosives or propellants. Herein, graphene oxide (GO) is adopted for the Al/CuO composites as the functional supporting materials, preventing a phase-separation between solvent and composites, leading to a significantly enhanced reactivity. The characterizations of Al/CuO decorated on GO(Al/CuO/GO) are performed through scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping analysis. Moreover, the functional bridging between Al/CuO and GO is suggested by identifying the chemical bonding with GO in X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. The reactivity of Al/CuO/GO composites is evaluated by comparing the maximum pressure and rate of the pressure increase of Al/CuO and Al/CuO/GO. The composites with a specific concentration of GO (10 wt%) demonstrate a well-dispersed mixture in hexane solution without phase separation.

In order to develop electrical insulation materials, epoxy-nanosilica-microsilica mixture composites (ENMC) was synthesized, and mechanical properties such as their tensile and flexural strength, and AC insulation breakdown strength were investigated. Properties of mechanical strength and AC insulation breakdown strength are analyzed as scale and shape parameter with respect to weibull plot. Their tensile and flexural strength, AC insulation breakdown strength were compared original epoxy or EMC to ENMC. The 4 phr nano-silica addition and the 65 wt% micron-silica mixture composite (ENMC) was found to have the highest tensile and flexural strength. In the tensile strength was improved 29%, and flexural strength was improved 60.9% higher than those of the original epoxy. In the insulation breakdown strength, ENMC_4 phr was improved 17% and ENMC_5 phr was improved 15.8% higher than those of the EMC.

In this paper the buckling analysis of the nanoplate made of arbitrary bi-directional functionally graded (BDFG) materials with small scale effects are investigated. To study the small-scale effects on buckling load, the Eringen's nonlocal theory is applied. Employing the principle of minimum potential energy, the governing equations are obtained. Generalize differential quadrature method (GDQM) is used to solve the governing equations for various boundary conditions to obtain the buckling load of BDFG nanoplates. These models can degenerate into the classical models if the material length scale parameter is taken to be zero. Comparison between the results of GDQ method and other papers for buckling analysis of a simply supported rectangular nano FGM plate reveals the accuracy of GDQ method. At the end some numerical results are presented to study the effects of material length scale parameter, plate thickness, aspect ratio, Poisson's ratio boundary condition and side to thickness ratio on size dependent Frequency.

Recently, a lot of nano-scale material technology development and research have been conducted in construction fields to improve the compressive strength and durability of cement-based Composites. There are some studies that have confirmed the properties and application effects of cement-based complex using each nanomaterial, but development and research using both materials are relatively limited. This study sought to confirm the effect of multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and nanosilica, which are representative construction nanomaterials, on the compressive strength, voids, and microstructure formation of cement. The purpose was to produce a cement composite by changing the mixing rate of the two nanomaterials, and to find the optimal mixing amount considering its mechanical and rheological properties.

The existence of active material in the environment causes the small-scale systems to be sensitive to the actual environment. Carbon dioxide is one of the active materials that exists a lot in the air conditions of the living environment. However, in some applications, the carbon dioxide-coated is used to improve the performance of systems against the destructive factors such as the corrosion; nevertheless, in the current research, the stability analysis of a carbon dioxide capture mechanism-coated beam is investigated according to the mathematical simulation of a rectangular composite beam utilizing the modified couple stress theory. The composite mechanism of carbon dioxide trapping is made of a polyacrylonitrile substrate that supports a cross-link polydimethylsiloxane gutter layer as the carbon dioxide mechanism trapping. Three novel types of carbon dioxide trapping mechanism involving methacrylate, poly (ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate, and three pedant methacrylates are considered, which were introduced by Fu et al. (2016). Finally, according to introducing the methodology of carbon dioxide (CO₂) trapping, the impact of various effective parameters on the stability of composite beams will be analyzed in detail.

This study explores the transmission of waves through polymer composite nanoplates situated on varying elastic foundations. The reinforcement of these nanoplates is assured by graphene nanoplatelets (GNP). Furthermore, the material's behavior is assessed using the Halpin-Tsai model, while the precise representations of stress and strain effects are ensured by the four variables higher order shear deformation theory. The equations of motion are obtained and resolved through the application of Hamilton's principle and the trial function. The study examines how different factors, like the nonlocal parameter, strain gradient parameter, weight fraction, and variable elastic foundations affect the outcomes of wave propagation in nanoplates. This thorough investigation offers valuable insights into the difficult behavior of wave dynamics in nanoplates, this has led to substantial advancements in engineering applications for the future.

나노실리카볼 입자를 합성하고 표면에 비닐기를 부여하는 합성 연구를 통해 다양한 크기로 조절이 된 유-무기하이브리드 입자인 비닐-나노실리카볼이 합성되었다. 다양한 크기의 비닐-나노실리카볼 입자를 상업적으로 적용되고 있는 아크릴-멜라민 클리어코트에 후첨시키고 경화시켰을 때, 클리어코트의 광택도 증가 및 유지 특성에 대해 연구하였다. 실리카볼 입자가 250 nm 정도인 경우 Matting effect에 의한 광택도 감소가 관측되었으나 20~30 nm로 작아지면 광택도 유지 효과가 약 7%까지 증가하였다. 나노실리카볼 대신 상업용 친수 실리카 Aerosil 200 (Hydrophilic fumed silica, 평균입도 12 nm, Degussa)을 사용하여 비닐- fumed 실리카 화합물을 합성하여 클리어코트에 적용하면 광택도 유지 효과가 약 2% 정도만 증가하였다.

브롬화 이소부틸 이소프렌 (BIIR) 고무의 점착성에 미치는 나노점토(Cloisite 20A)의 영향을 조사하였다. 고무내 나노점토의 분산성은 SEM, TEM, XRD으로 분석하였다. 나노점토 충전 및 미충전 고무의 열적안정성은 TGA로 분석하였으며, 충전고무에서 열적안정성을 보였다. 또한 나노점토를 첨가하면 보강효과에 의해 고무의 강도가 증가하였다. 나노점토 첨가로 계면간 분자확산 정도는 감소할 것으로 판단되었지만, 본 연구에서 관찰된 분자확산에 의해 형성된 계면의 두께는 분자사슬간 엄킴현상을 유발하는데 충분하여 계면점착력이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 계면점착력 증가현상은 일정한 이상 (8 phr)의 나노점토가 첨가되었을 때 나타났다. 나노점토 첨가에 따른 표면특성의 변화를 조사하기 위해 접촉각 측정을 하였는데 큰 변화는 관찰되지 않았다.
