이 연구에서는 고분자 전해질 막 연료전지의 분리판 용 고분자/흑연 복합소재의 혼합 특성 및 점도 측정 방법에 관하여 연구하였다. 분리판은 전도성이 있어야 하기 때문에 흑연의 함량이 매우 높고 이 때문에 제조된 복합재료의 점도가 높아 점도 측정이 어려운 문제가 있다. 일반적으로 캐필러리 레오메터에서 사용되는 다이로 점도를 측정한 결과 압력이 시간에 따라서 계속 변하고 정상상태의 값을 보이지 않아서 점도 측정이 불가능 했다. 다이의 디자인을 변경하여 측정하면 압력이 정상상태를 보이는 것을 관찰할 수 있었으나, 흑연과 PET를 단순 용융 혼합하여 점도를 측정하는 경우에는 측정된 점도 값이 재현성이 없는 결과를 나타냈다. 여러 차례의 시행 오차 끝에 흑연과 PET를 작은 입자로 분쇄한 후 용융 혼합하면 재현성 있는 점도를 측정할 수 있고, 제조된 복합재료의 전기전도도 값도 재현성 있는 결과를 보임을 관찰하였다.

Graphite reinforced conductive polymer composites were fabricated by the compression molding technique. Graphite powder was mixed with an phenol resin to impart electrical property in composites. The ratio and particle size of graphite powder were varied to investigate electrical conductivity of cured composites. In this study, graphite reinforced conductive polymer composites with high filler loadings(>66wt.%) were manufactured to accomplish high electrical conductivity. With increasing the loading ratio of graphite powder, the electrical conductivity and flexural strength increased. However. above 80wt.% filler loadings, flexural strength decreased due to lack of resin. Regardless of graphite particle size, electrical conductivity wasn’t varied. On the other hand, with decreasing particle size, flexural strength increased due to high specific surface area.

Graphite reinforced conductive polymer composites were fabricated by the compression molding technique. Graphite powder (conductive filler) was mixed with an epoxy resin to impart electrical property in composites. The ratio of graphite powder was varied to investigate electrical property of cured conductive composites. In this study, graphite filled conductive polymer composites with high filler loadings$(>60wt.\%)$ were manufactured to accomplish high electrical conductivity(> 100S/cm). Graphite powder increase electrical conductivity of composites by direct physical contact between particles. While high filler loadings are needed to attain good electrical property, the composites becomes brittle. So the ratio of filler to epoxy was varied to optimize of cured composites. The optimum molding pressure according to filler was proposed experimentally.

고분자 전해질 막 연료전지의 분리판 용 흑연/폴리프로필렌(PP)/액정고분자 (LCP) 복합소재의 기계적, 유변학 특성 및 전기전도도에 관하여 연구하였다. 저분자량 PP를 바인더로 사용하는 경우 다른 열가소성 고분자와 비교하여 상당히 높은 전기 전도도를 보임을 확인하였는데 이는 점도가 낮은 PP에 의해 흑연 입자의 분산이 향상되어 나타난 결과임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 탄소나노튜브를 소량 첨가하면 복합재료의 전기전도도가 크게 증가하였고 산처리를 하여 산소 관능기를 포함한 탄소나노튜브를 첨가했을 때에는 전기전도도의 증가가 거의 없었다. 이로부터 탄소나노튜브는 비극성 고분자와 친화도가 높음을 알 수 있었다. 저분자량 PP를 바인더로 사용하였을 때는 복합재료의 점도가 사출성형이 가능할 정도로 낮은 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러나 기계적인 강도는 다른 고분자에 비해 현저히 낮았다. 이를 보강하기 위하여 LCP를 혼합하여 복합재료를 제조한 결과 전반적인 물성 밸런스가 잘 맞는 복합재료를 얻을 수 있었다.

The bipolar plate is the most important and most costly component of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. The development of a suitable low density bipolar plate is scientifically and technically challenging due to the need to maintain high electrical conductivity and mechanical properties. Here, bipolar plates were developed from different particle sizes of natural and expanded graphite with phenolic resin as a polymeric matrix. It was observed that the particle size of the reinforcement significantly influences the mechanical and electrical properties of a composite bipolar plate. The composite bipolar plate based on expanded graphite gives the desired mechanical and electrical properties as per the US Department of Energy target, with a bulk density of 1.55 $g.cm^{-3}$ as compared to that of ~1.87 $g.cm^{-3}$ for a composite plate based on natural graphite (NG). Although the bulk density of the expanded-graphite-based composite plate is ~20% less than that of the NG-based plate, the I-V performance of the expanded graphite plate is superior to that of the NG plate as a consequence of the higher conductivity. The expanded graphite plate can thus be used as an electromagnetic interference shielding material.

Cu wire 발열패드는 대중화된 히터로 많이 이용되지만 높은 소비전력(70 w이상)으로 에너지 효율을 중요시 하는 미래 소재로는 적합하지 않아 효율이 높은 발열 소재의 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 이에 본 실험에서 Graphite표면에 Amide 기능화를 유도된 Carbon nanotube (Electrical Conductivity $10^5$ s/cm, Thermal Conductivity >3,000 w/mk)를 분산 시켜, Graphite의 우수한 전기 전도도의 특성을 이용할 뿐만 아니라 Carbon nanotube의 접착 특성을 통해 물리적 특성을 향상시켜 면상발열체의 도막 특성 향상뿐만 아니라 효율적 발열을 유도 하고자 한다.

The effect of varying amounts of graphite and $TiB_2$ on the electrical conductivity of composite bipolar plates was systematically studied. In this study, Titanium diboride ($TiB_2$) which has a high electrical conductivity, was selected as a filler and a additive material instead of conventional graphite. For proper distribution of the filler and matrix materials, ball milling using alumina balls was conducted for 1h, and then the hot press method was applied for the preparation of composite samples. The results showed a rapid increase in the electrical conductivity of composite bipolar plates at the critical filler content. However, $TiB_2$ and graphite composite bipolar plates showed similar increases in the electrical conductivity even though $TiB_2$ has a higher electrical conductivity than graphite. In addition, it was also found that a small addition of $TiB_2$ to graphite filler could be very effective for increasing the electrical conductivity and flexural strength of the composite bipolar plate.

In efforts to characterize and understand the properties and processing of phenylethynyl-terminated imide (LaRC PETI-5, simply referred to as PETI-5) oligomers and polymers as a high-temperature sizing material for carbon fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites, PETI-5 imidization and thermal curing behaviors have been extensively investigated based on the phenylethynyl end-group reaction. These studies are reviewed here. In addition, the use of PETI-5 to enhance interfacial adhesion between carbon fibers and a bismaleimide (BMI) matrix, as well as the dynamic mechanical properties of carbon/BMI composites, are discussed. Reports on the thermal expansion behavior of intercalated graphite flake, and the effects of exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets (xGnP) on the properties of PETI-5 matrix composites are also reviewed. The dynamic mechanical and thermal properties and the electrical resistivity of xGnP/PETI-5 composites are characterized. The effect of liquid rubber amine-terminated poly(butadiene-co-acrylonitrile) (ATBN)-coated xGnP particles incorporated into epoxy resin on the toughness of xGnP/epoxy composites is examined in terms of its impact on Izod strength. This paper provides an extensive overview from fundamental studies on PETI-5 and xGnP, as well as applied studies on relevant composite materials.

The effect of silicon carbide (SiC) and graphite fillers incorporation on the abrasive wear behaviour of glass-vinyl ester (G-V) composites have been investigated. The three-body abrasive wear behaviour was assessed by rubber wheel abrasion tests (RWAT). The worn surfaces were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The addition of SiC and graphite fillers in G-V composite improves the abrasion resistance under different loads/abrading distances. The SEM studies indicate the reasons for failure of composites and influencing parameters.
