The surface treatment effects of reinforcement filler were investigated based on the dynamic mechanical properties of mutiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/epoxy composites. The as-received MWCNTs(R-MWCNTs) were chemically modified by direct oxyfluorination method to improve the dispersibility and adhesiveness with epoxy resins in composite system. In order to investigate the induced functional groups on MWCNTs during oxyfluorination, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy was used. The thermo-mechanical property of MWCNTs/epoxy composite was also measured based on effects of oxyfluorination treatment of MWCNTs. The storage modulus of MWCNTs/epoxy composite was enhanced about 1.27 times through oxyfluorination of MWCNTs fillers at $25^{\circ}C$. The storage modulus of oxyfluorinated MWCNTs (OF73-MWCNTs) reinforced epoxy composite was much higher than that of R-MWCNTs/epoxy composite. It revealed that oxygen content led to the efficient carbon-fluorine covalent bonding during oxyfluorination. These functional groups on surface modified MWCNTs induced by oxyfluorination strikingly made an important role for the reinforced epoxy composite.

In this study, the oxyfluorination of PAN-based carbon fibers was undertaken at room temperature using fluorine-oxygen mixtures, and the influence of oxyfluorination on properties was investigated. The surface characteristics of the modified fiber were determined by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and dynamic contact angle analyzer. The oxyfluorination of carbon fibers was one of the more effective methods to increase surface wettability by the formation of semicovalent C-F bond and C-O bond depending on reaction conditions. When oxygen mole fraction is increased from 0.5 to 0.9, it is probable that attached fluorine atoms at the surface of the fibers reacted with other components. As increased oxyfluorination time and decreased its pressures, semi-covalent peak is increased at 0.5 of oxygen mole fraction. The total surface free energy of oxyfluorinated carbon fibers decreased with increasing oxygen mole fraction over 0.5. These results indicate that the surface of carbon fibers became much more hydrophilic after the short oxyfluorination. The surface free energy of oxyfluorinated carbon fibers progressively decreased after 10 min treatment. The polar components of surface free energies were however, significantly higher for all oxyfluorinated samples than that for the untreated carbon fiber.

The oxyfluorination effects of electrospun carbon nanofibers (OFACFs) were investigated for $CO_2$ storage. Carbon nanofibers were prepared form poly acrylonitrile / N,N-dimethylformamide solution through electrospinning method and heat treatment. Chemical activation of carbon nanofibers were carried out in order to improve the pore structure. And the surface modification of activated carbon nanofibers was conducted by oxyfluorination to improve the $CO_2$ storage on effect of introduced functional groups. The samples were labeled CF (electrospun carbon nanofiber), ACF (activated carbon nanofibers), OFACF-1 ($F_2:O_2$ = 3:7), OFACF-2 ($F_2:O_2$ = 5:5) and OFACF-3 ($F_2:O_2$ = 7:3). The functional group of OFACFs was investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. The specific surface area, pore volume and pore size of OFACFs were calculated and pore shape was estimated by the BET equation. Through the adsorption isotherm, the specific surface area and pore volume significantly decreased by oxyfluorination.

The effect of oxyfluorination temperature on the surface properties of carbon fibers and their reinforced epoxy composites was investigated. Infrared (IR) spectroscopy results for the oxyfluorinated carbon fibers revealed carboxyl/ester (C=O) and hydroxyl (O-H) groups at 1632 and 3450 $cm^{-1}$, respectively, and that the oxyfluorinated carbon fibers had a higher O-H peak intensity than that of the fluorinated ones. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results indicated that after oxyfluorination, graphitic carbon was the major carbon functional component on the carbon fiber surfaces, while other functional groups present were C-O, C=O, HO-C=O, and $C-F_x$. These components improved the impact properties of oxyfluorinated carbon fibers-reinforced epoxy composites by improving the interfacial adhesion between the carbon fibers and the epoxy matrix resins.

To study the effect of oxyfluorination on water dispersion of phthalocyanine blue(C.I. pigment blue 15:3), the pigment was oxyfluorinated using various oxygen to fluorine ratio of the reactant gas. After the oxyfluorination of the phthalocyanine blue pigment, no significant change in FT-IR spectra was observed, whereas XPS spectra showed the introduction of oxygen and fluorine containing functional groups. This suggests that the oxyfluorination of the pigment only occurred on the surface of the pigment particle and resulted in no significant change in UV-Vis spectra of the pigment. However, the oxyflurinated pigments showed improved water dispersion, compared to the non-treated pigment. Especially, when the oxygen to fluorine ratio was 47:3, the water dispersion of the oxyfluorinated pigments significantly increased, compared to the non-treated pigments. This suggests that the oxyfluorination of the phthalocyanine blue pigment has a potential to be used as a water dispersion improving method.

The oxyfluorination effects of activated carbon nanofibers (OFACFs) were investigated for $CO_2$ storage. Electrospun CFs were prepared from a polyacrylonitrile/N,N-dimethylformamide solution via electrospinning and heat treatment. The electrospun CFs were chemically activated in order to generate the pore structure, and then oxyfluorination was used to modify the surface. The samples were labeled CF (electrospun CF), ACF (activated CF), OFACF-1 ($O_2:F_2$ = 7:3), OFACF-2 ($O_2:F_2$ = 5:5) and OFACF-3 ($O_2:F_2$ = 3:7). The functional group of OFACFs was investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. The C-F bonds formed on surface of ACFs. The intensities of the C-O peaks increased after oxyfluorination and increased the oxygen content in the reaction gas. The specific surface area, pore volume and pore size of OFACFs were calculated by the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and density functional theory equation. Through the $N_2$ adsorption isotherm, the specific surface area and pore volume slightly decreased as a result of oxyfluorination treatment. Nevertheless, the $CO_2$ adsorption efficiency of oxyfluorinated ACF improved around 16 wt% due to the semi-ionic interaction effect of surface modificated oxygen functional groups and $CO_2$ molecules.

본 연구에서는 폴리메틸메타아크릴에이트(polymethylmethacrylate : PMMA) 표면을 친수성으로 개질하기 위하여 불소와 산소의 혼합비율을 변수로 하여 함산소불소화를 실시하였다. 함산소불소화 처리 된 PMMA 표면 및 광투과 특성을 접촉각, 표면자유에너지. X-ray 광전자 분광기(XPS), UV-Vis 분광기를 통하여 분석하였다. 함산소불소화 처리된 PMMA의 표면은 친수화 되어 물 접촉각이 $69^{\circ}$에서 $44^{\circ}$로 감소하였다. 또한 PMMA의 표면자유에너지가 $46\;mN\;m^{-1}$ 에서 $58\;mN\;m^{-1}$로 증가하였다. 이는 함산소불소화를 통한 PMMA표면에 친수성 관능기의 형성으로 기인하였다. 또한, XPS 분석 결과로부터 함산소불소화 처리 시 PMMA 표면에 O/C비율이 증가하였고, 불소 부분압이 증가할수록 친수성을 나타내는 C-OH 결합의 �t량이 6.7%에서 24.8%로 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 함산소불소화 조건(상온, 총압 1 bar, 불소 및 산소 혼합비 5 : 5)에서는 함산소불소화가 PMMA의 광투과 특성에 영향을 주지 않으면서도 그 표면특성이 개선됨을 관찰할 수 있었다. 이 결과로부터 함산소불소화는 PMMA 표면을 친수성으로 개질하는데 효과적인 방법으로 기대된다.

In this work, the effect of a direct oxyfluorination on surface and mechanical interfacial properties of PAN-based carbon fibers is investigated. The changes of surface functional groups and chemical composition of the oxyfluorinated carbon fibers are determined by FT-IR and XPS measurements, respectively. ILSS of the composites is also studied in terms of oxyfluorination conditions. As a result, FT-IR exhibits that the carboxyl/ester groups (C=O) at 1632 $cm^{-1} and hydroxyl group (O-H) at 3450 $cm^{-1} are observed in the oxyfluorinated carbon fibers. Especially, the oxyfluorinated carbon fibers have a higher O-H peak intensity than that of the fluorinated ones. XPS result also shows that the surface functional groups, including C-O, C=O, HO-C=O, and C-$F_x$ after oxyfluorination are formed on the carbon fiber surfaces, which are more efficient and reactive to undergo an interfacial reaction to matrix materials. Moreover, the formation of C-$F_x$ physical bonding of the carbon fibers with fluorine increases the surface polarity of the fibers, resulting in increasing ILSS of the composites. This is probably due to the improvement of interfacial adhesion between fibers and matrix resins.

In order to investigate functional groups on the surface of Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) induced by oxyfluorination, XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) analysis was carried out. All core level spectra of MWCNTs were deconvoluted to several Pseudo-Voigt functions (sum of Gaussian-Lorentzian functions). Both O1s and F1s binding energy of oxyfluorinated MWCNTs shifted high value as increment of fluorine mixing ratio. The carbon-fluorine covalent bonding concentration increased as increment of fluorine mixing ratio. The shape and intensity of OF10-MWCNTs are similar with those of as-received MWCNTs. However, the intensity and binding energies of main peak position of OF20-MWCNTs and OF30-MWCNTs were dramatically increased by oxyfluorination.

전기이중층 커패시터(electric double layer capacitor, EDLC) 전극용 핏치계 활성탄소섬유의 고출력 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 불소와 산소 혼합가스의 다양한 불소분압에 따라 함산소불소화 표면처리를 수행하였다. 함산소불소화 처리된 핏치계 활성탄소섬유는 불소 부분압이 증가함에 따라 선형적인 불소관능기의 증가를 보였고, 산소관능기는 증가하였으나 부분압에 따라 차이가 없었다. 또한 함산소불소화를 통하여 활성탄소섬유 표면의 식각 반응으로 인하여 비표면적 및 기공부피는 감소하였으나 중간기공 부피는 약 4.5배 증가하였다. 50%의 불소가스 분압으로 처리한 활성탄소섬유의 경우 5와 50 mV/s의 전압주입속도에서 비정전용량이 약 29%와 61%로 증가함을 확인하였다. 이러한 비정전용량의 향상은 함산소불소화 처리를 통한 활성탄소섬유 표면의 산소 및 불소 관능기의 도입과 중간기공의 증가에 의한 효과로 사료된다.
