The time to ignition, heat release rate characteristics, and carbon monoxide yield of fiber reinforced and sandwich phenol resin were investigated with cone calorimeter. The fire characteristics of unsaturated polyester, mostly being applied to the existing passenger train, and phenolic resin were compared. DSC & TGA was used to monitor the degree of thermal decomposition and weight loss for the phenolic resin. According to the cone calorimeter data, the time to ignition was shorter, heat release rate, and CO yield was higher as the external heat flux increased. Under the same heat flux, the time to ignition of sandwich type phenolic resin was shorter than that of laminated. The result of comparison between unsaturated polyester and phenolic resin was that phenolic resin was shown to have better fire resistance than unsaturated polyester.

This paper presents the tensile characteristics for carbon/epoxy, carbon/phenolic and silica/phenolic composites under elevated temperature, which are considered for vehicle structure or thermal protection materials. The tensile test was conducted with servo-hydraulic testing machine and high temperature furnace, and the mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio were evaluated by using high temperature strain gages. Also, they were compared each other with respect to fiber orientation and temperature effect. These test results were used for designing and analyzing some airframe structures with these composites.

The purpose of this study was to investigate nutritional and functional ingredients and antioxidant activity after fermenting rice bran using Lactobacillus brevis for 24, 36, and 48 hours. The results of the analysis of the nutritional ingredients revealed that there was no significant difference in the carbohydrate, crude protein, crude fat and ash content regardless of the fermentation process and fermentation time. The amount of dietary fiber was significantly different between the unfermented and fermented rice bran and was observed to be the highest after a 48-hour fermentation. The γ-oryzanol, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and total phenolic contents were significantly higher in the fermented rice bran compared to the unfermented rice bran (p<0.05) and the GABA and total phenolic contents increased significantly as the fermentation time increased (p<0.05). The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), superoxide and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities used to measure antioxidant effects significantly increased as the fermentation time increased (p<0.05). From these results, it was confirmed that the antioxidant effect and functional components, namely γ-oryzanol, GABA, and the total phenolic content of rice bran improved with fermentation. Based on these results, fermented rice bran could be presented as a functional material for use in high value-added industries.

The PAN (Polyacrylonitrile) based carbon fiber-ceramic composites (CFCC) were prepared from mixtures of short carbon fibers, phenolic resin and ceramic binder. The effects of carbonization temperature of a pre-cursor fiber, the stabilized PAN fiber, on the specific surface area and the bending strength of the activated CFCC were studied in this work. The precursor fiber was carbonized at 80$0^{\circ}C$ and 100$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The CFCC were activated at 85$0^{\circ}C$ in carbon dioxide for 10~90 minutes. As the burn-off of the activated CFCC made of the precursor fiber carbonized at 80$0^{\circ}C$ was increased from 37% to 76%, the specific surface area in-creased from 493m2/g to 1090m2/g, and the bending strength decreased from 4.5MPa to 1.4MPa. These values were about two times larger than those of the activated CFCC of which precursor fiber was car-bonized at 100$0^{\circ}C$. The effects of carbonization temperature of a precursor fiber on the specific surface area and bending strength of the activated CCFC were explained by bonding force between carbon fiber and car-bonized phenolic resin as well as by relative shirnkage between carbon fiber and ceramic film.

Unidirectional polymer composites were prepared using high-strength carbon fibers as reinforcement and phenolic resin as matrix precursor with keeping fiber volume fraction at 30, 40, 50 and 60% respectively. These composites were carbonized at $1000^{\circ}C$ and graphitised at $2600^{\circ}C$ in the inert atmosphere. The carbonized and graphitised composites were characterized for mechanical properties as well as microstructure. Microscopic studies were carried out of the polished surface of carbonized and graphitised composites after etching by chromic acid, to understand the effect of fiber volume fraction on oxidation at fiber-matrix interface. It is found that the flexural strength in polymer composites increases with fiber volume fraction and so does for the carbonised composites. However, the trend was found to be reversed in graphitised composites. In all the carbonized composites anisotropic region has been observed at fiber-matrix interface which transforms into columnar type microstructure upon graphitisation. The extension of strong and weak columnar type microstructure is function of fiber volume fraction. SEM microscopy of the etched surface of the sample reveal that composites containing 40% fiber volume has minimum oxidation at the interface, revealing a strong interfacial bonding.

Rigid porous carbon fiber composites with the uniform pore size distribution were prepared by vacuum forming from water slurries containing carbonized PAN fibers, a phenolic resin and ceramic binders. The composites were designed to use for highly efficient carbon fiber filters for particulate filtration and gas adsorption. As the as-received carbon fibers of 1mm in length were milled to an approximate average length of 300${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, modulus of rupture (MOR) of the composite filter was increased from 1MPa to the value larger than 5 MPa. Modulus of rupture (MOR) for the composite filter fabricated using the milled carbon fiber was increased from 5 MPa to 10 MPa as the carbonization temperature of the PAN fiber was raised from 90$0^{\circ}C$ to 140$0^{\circ}C$. The air permeability and an average pore size of the composite filter were increased from 40 to 270cc/min.$\textrm{cm}^2$ and from 35 to 80${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, respectively, as the apparent porosity increased from 80 to 95%. It was shown that the MOR of the carbon fiber composite filter was dependent primarily on the average length of carbon fiber, carbonization temperature and the type of bonding materials.

Carbon fiber reinforced composites(CFRP) were fabricated with phenolic resin matrix by hot press molding, and its surface was modified by the ion-assisted reaction process. When we tested the friction coefficient and wear rate variation and observed the effect of fibers with respect to friction and wear characteristics, the amount of pitch based carbon fiber was 45wt% and the average friction coefficient was the lowest at 0.12. When the amount of ion-irradiation was $1\times10^{l6}ions/cm^2$, the friction coefficient of the composites was about 0.12 and the wear mode was stable, whereas, the friction coefficient of the non-treated composites was about 0.16 and the wear mode was very unstable. But if the amount of ion-irradiation was $5\times10^{l6}ions/cm^2$$1\times10^{l6}ions/cm^2$ion-irradiation case.

In this study, a number of natural fiber henequen reinforced polymer matrix composites were successfully fabricated by means of a compression molding technique using chopped henequen fibers surface-treated with different electron beam irradiation (EBI) dosages, thermoplastic poly(butylene succinate), thermosetting unsaturated polyester and phenolic resins. Their interfacial and thermal characteristics were studied in terms of interfacial shear strength, fracture surface, dynamic mechanical properties, dimensional stability, and thermal stability using single fiber microbonding test, SEM, DMA, TMA, and TGA. The results show that their interfacial and thermal properties significantly depend on the intensity of EBl treatment on the natural fiber surface.

폴리아크릴로나트릴(PAN)계 탄소섬유 및 안정화 PAN섬유를 사용하여 제조한 페놀수지 복합재료의 열주기 산화저항성에 섬유표면의 인산코팅 유.무가 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 각 복합재료의 열주기 산화저항성은 열중량분석기의 원리를 응용하여, 공기중에서 hot zone과 cold zone을 주기적으로 반복이동하는 열충격조건에 노출되면서 초래되는 복합재료의 중량변화를 측정하여 비교하였다. 시험변수로는 hot zone에 노출된 온도, 시간 및 싸이클횟수를 선정하였다. 이 시험방법은 비교적 단순하며, 작은 크기의 시편으로도 가능하고, 중량변화가 온-라인 모니터에서 직접 감지되므로 데이타의 신뢰성이 \ulcorner다. 각 시험조건에서 인산코팅한 섬유를 사용한 복합재료가 그렇지 않은 재료보다 고온에서의 높은 산화저항성 때문에 우수한 열주기저항성을 보여 주었다. 또한 인산코팅의 존재 여부가 열주기시험 후의 탄소섬유-페놀수지 및 안정화 PAN섬유-페놀수지 복합재료의 미세구조에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다.
