  • Thermally or electrically conductive filler reinforced polymer composites are extensively being developed as the demand for light weight material increases rapidly in industiral applications need good conductivity such as heat sink of the electronics or light. Carbon or ceramic materials like graphite, carbon nanotube or boron nitride are typical conductive fillers with good thermal or electical conductivity. Using these conductive fillers, the polymer composites in the market show wide range of thermal conductivity from approximately 1 W/mK to 20 W/mK, which is quite enhanced considering the thermal conductivity lower than 0.5 W/mK for most polymeric materials. The practical use of these composites, however, is yet limited to specific applications because most composites are still not conductive enough or too difficult to process, too brittle, too expensive for higher conductivity. For practical use of conductive composite, the thermal conductivity required depending on the heat releasing mode are studied first for simplified unit cooling geometry to propose thermal conductivities of the composites for reasonable cooling performance comparing with the metal heat sink as a reference. Also, as a practical design for heat sink based on polymer composite, composite and metal sheet hybrid structures are investigated for LED lamp heat sink and audio amplication module housing to find that this hybrid structure can be a good solution considering all of the cooling performance, manufacturing, mechanical performance, cost and weight.

  • 저밀도 2-D 탄소/탄소 복합재료의 저속 충격에 의한 파괴 거동과 첨가제에 따른 충격 에너지 흡수 경향을 연구하였다. 저속 충격시험은 mini tower 낙추 충격 시험기를 이용하였으며, 흑연, 카본블랙, 분쇄탄소섬유를 첨가제로 선택하였다. 흑연의 첨가는 최대하중값을 증가시켰으며, 전체적인 관통이 일어나기까지 응력을 오랫동안 유지시키는 효과를 나타내었다. 특히 9 vol%의 함량에서 흑연이 첨가되지 않은 씨편보다 약 42%의 충격 흡수 개선을 보였다. 약 0.4 J의 낮은 충격에너지에 의한 충격 회수에 따른 실험에서 첨가제가 첨가되지 않은 시편의 경우, 충격에너지는 층간분리에 의해 소모되고, 흑연의 함량이 증가함에 따라 파괴 경향은 시편의 관통으로 변화함을 관찰할 수 있었다.

  • Conductive polymer composites (CPCs) consist of a polymeric matrix and a conductive filler, for example, carbon black, carbon fibers, graphite or carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The critical amount of the electrically conductive filler necessary to build up a continuous conductive network, and accordingly, to make the material conductive; is referred to as the percolation threshold. From technical and economical viewpoints, it is desirable to decrease the conductive-filler percolation-threshold as much as possible. In this study, we investigated the effect of polymer/conductive-filler interactions, as well as the processing and morphological development of low-percolation-threshold (${\Phi}c$) conductive-polymer composites. The aim of the study was to produce conductive composites containing less multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs) than required for pure polypropylene (PP) through two approaches: one using various mixing methods and the other using immiscible polymer blends. Variants of the conductive PP composite filled with MWCNT was prepared by dry mixing, melt mixing, mechanofusion, and compression molding. The percolation threshold (${\Phi}c$) of the MWCNT-PP composites was most successfully lowered using the mechanofusion process than with any other mixing method (2-5 wt%). The mechanofusion process was found to enhance formation of a percolation network structure, and to ensure a more uniform state of dispersion in the CPCs. The immiscible-polymer blends were prepared by melt mixing (internal mixer) poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF, PP/PVDF, volume ratio 1:1) filled with MWCNT.

  • The thermal conductivity and the adhesive properties were measured, after synthesis of thermal conductive composite which was obtained as a result of mixing alumina or graphite with acrylic adhesive synthesized by UV polymerization. The adhesive properties of the composite were evaluated measuring the peel strength at 180 degrees, the retention, and the initial tack;the thermal conductivity was estimated using laser flash analysis. As the filler contents increased, a decrease in peel strength and initial tack and an increase in retention and thermal conductivity were observed. When compared to alumina, the adhesion of graphite showed a dramatic decrease, whereas the thermal conductivity was further enhanced. It was found out that the small size of graphite increased the mechanical interlocking between the polymer and the filler, and it was easier for graphite to come into contact with other graphite in the matrix.

  • 본 논문은 매트릭스 수지로 LCP(Liquid crystal polymer)를 사용하였으며, 기계적 특성 및 화학적 특성을 증대시키기 위해 주 첨가제로 synthetic graphite, expanded graphite와 보조 첨가제로는 carbon black을 사용하여, 함량 별로 복합소재를 제조하였다. 사출성형 전 CAE 프로그램으로 해석을 하였으며, 유동성과 섬유 배향을 예측 했다. 복합 소재는 전동식 사출기를 이용하여 ASTM 복합 시편으로 사출성형 하였으며, 시편을 four point probe 장치를 사용하여 전기전도도를 측정/비교 하였으며, 기계적 강도는 굴곡강도, 굴곡탄성률, 충격강도를 측정하였다. 첨가제가 증가할 수록 전기전도도는 증가하나 첨가제의 brittle한 특성으로 인해 기계적 강도는 감소하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

  • 본 연구에서는 팽창흑연/탄소섬유 혼합 보강 전도성 고분자 복합재료를 2단계 성형 공법으로 제조하였으며, 탄소섬유의 첨가가 전도성 고분자 복합재료의 전기적, 기계적 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 전도성 충진재들은 고분자 수지와 기계적으로 혼합되었으며 이를 통하여 복합재료가 전기적 특성을 가지도록 하였다. 팽창흑연은 입자 간 접촉 면적이 넓기 때문에 복합재료 내 전도성 네트워킹의 형성에 매우 유리하지만, 팽창흑연과 고분자 수지만을 사용하여 상기 공정으로 복합재료를 제조할 경우 우수한 기계적 강도를 얻기가 어렵다. 따라서 이를 보완하기 위하여 탄소섬유를 복합재료에 첨가하였으며 전기적 기계적 물성을 바탕으로 탄소섬유의 혼합 비율을 최적화하였다. 굽힘 강도는 탄소섬유의 충친 비율이 증가할수록 섬유에 의한 강화 효과에 의하여 증가 하지만, 32wt.% 이상에서는 오히려 감소하였다. 이는 여분의 탄소섬유들이 공극을 발생시켜 응력집중이 발생하기 때문으로 판단된다. 전기 전도도는 탄소섬유의 비율이 증가할수록 전도성 공백이 발생하고 팽창흑연의 전도성 네트워킹이 저해되기 때문에 계속 감소한다.

  • Piezoelectric Fiber Composites with Interdigitated Electrodes (PFCIDE) were previously introduced as an alternative to monolithic wafers with conventional electrodes for applications of structural actuation. This paper is an investigation into the performance improvement of piezoelectric fiber composite actuators by changing the matrix material. This paper presents a modified micro-electromechanical model and numerical analyses of piezoelectric fiber/piezopolymer matrix composite actuator with interdigitated electrodes (PFPMIDE). Various concepts from different backgrounds including three-dimensional linear elastic and dielectric theories have been incorporated into the present linear piezoelectric model. The rule of mixture and the modified method to calculate effective properties of fiber composites were extended to apply to the PFPMIDE model. The new model was validated when compared with available experimental data and other analytical results. To see the structural responses of a composite plate integrated with the PFPMIDE, three-dimensional finite element formulations were derived. Numerical analyses show that the shape of the graphite/epoxy composite plate with the PFPMIDE may be controlled by judicious choice of voltages, piezoelectric fiber angles, and elastic tailoring of the composite plate.

  • Graphene is one of the most promising materials for many applications. It can be used in a variety of applications not only as a reinforcement material for polymer to obtain a combination of desirable mechanical, electrical, thermal, and barrier properties in the resulting nanocomposite but also as a component in energy storage, fuel cells, solar cells, sensors, and batteries. Recent research at Michigan State University has shown that it is possible to exfoliate natural graphite into graphite nanoplatelets composed entirely of stacks of graphene. The size of the platelets can be controlled from less than 10 nm in thickness and diameters of any size from sub-micron to 15 microns or greater. In this study we have investigated the influence of melt compounding processing on the physical properties of a polyamide 6 (PA6) nanocomposite reinforced with exfoliated graphite nanoplatelets (xGnP). The morphology, electrical conductivity, and mechanical properties of xGnP-PA6 nanocomposite were characterized with electrical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, AC impedance, and mechanical properties. It was found that counter rotation (CNR) twins crew processed xGnP/PA6 nanocomposite had similar mechanical properties with co-rotation (CoR) twin screw processed or with CoR conducted with a screw design modified for nanoparticles (MCoR). Microscopy showed that the CNR processed nanocomposite had better xGnP dispersion than the (CoR) twin screw processed and modified screw (MCoR) processed ones. It was also found that the CNR processed nanocomposite at a given xGnP content showed the lowest graphite X-ray diffraction peak at $26.5^{\circ}$ indicating better xGnP dispersion in the nanocomposite. In addition, it was also found that the electrical conductivity of the CNR processed 12 wt.% xGnP-PA6 nanocomposite is more than ten times higher than the CoR and MCoR processed ones. These results indicate that better dispersion of an xGnP-PA6 nanocomposite is attainable in CNR twins crew processing than conventional CoR processing.
