  • 현재까지 개발되어 온 고체산화물 연료전지는 전해질로 사용되는 산소이온전도성 산화물의 저온에서의 낮은 전도도로 인해 그 사용영역이 제한되어 왔으며, 기판재료가 연료가스 확산층으로 사용되어야 한다는 점 때문에 저온작동을 위한 박막화 역시 명확한 한계를 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점은 고도의 평활도를 갖는 균일한 나노기공성 기판재를 도입함으로써 해결될 수 있으며, 본 연구에서는 나노기공성 기판에 비정질 금속박막을 증착/산화하는 방안을 제시한다. 초박막형 성공정으로서, 산화 후 산소이온전도성 산화물을 구성하는 합금 타겟을 장착한 DC-magnetron sputter를 사용하여 $20{\sim}200nm$의 기공크기를 갖는 나노기공성 양극산화 알루미나 기판에 비정질 금속합금막을 형성하여 산화/열처리 과정을 거쳐 초박막 산화물 전해질의 제조공정을 실현하였다. 얻어진 박막의 가스투과특성, 입자/입계의 관찰, 상전이에 따른 결정구조/미세구조변화를 관찰하여 초박막 증착 및 전해질의 나노구조제어에 필요한 제반 기본물성데이터를 확보하였다.

  • DLC films were deposited on Si wafer by RF plasma assisted CVD using CH4 gas. Tribological tests were conducted using rotating type ball on disk friction tester in dry air. Four kinds of mating balls were used. The mating balls were made with stainless steel but apply different annealing conditions to achieve different hardness conditions. Testing results in all load conditions showed that the harder the mating materials, the lower the friction coefficient among the three kind of martensite mating balls. In case of austenite balls, the friction coefficients were lower than fully annealed martensite ball. The high friction coefficient in soft martensite balls seems to be caused by the larger contact area between DLC film and ball. The wear tracks of DLC films and mating balls could have proven that effect. Measuring the wear track of both DLC films and mating balls have similar tendency comparing to the results of friction coefficients. Wear rate of austenite balls were also smaller than that of fully annealed martensite ball. The results of effect of applying load showed, the friction coefficients were become decrease when the applying loads exceed critical load conditions. The wear track of mating balls showed that some material transfer occurs from DLC film to mating ball during the high friction process. Raman spectra analysis showed that transferred material was a kind of graphite and contact surface of DLC film seems to undergo phase transition from carbon to graphite during the high friction process.

  • Cracking of concrete cover induced by reinforcement corrosion is a critical issue for life-cycle design and maintenance of reinforced concrete structures. However, the critical degree of corrosion, based on when the concrete surface cracks, is usually hard to predict accurately due to the heterogeneity inherent in concrete. To investigate the influence of concrete heterogeneity, a modified rigid-body-spring model, which could generate concrete sections with randomly distributed coarse aggregates, has been developed to study the corrosion-induced cracking process of the concrete cover and the corresponding critical degree of corrosion. In this model, concrete is assumed to be a three-phase composite composed of coarse aggregate, mortar and an interfacial transition zone (ITZ), and the uniform corrosion of a steel bar is simulated by applying uniform radial displacement. Once the relationship between radial displacement and degree of corrosion is derived, the critical degree of corrosion can be obtained. The mesoscale model demonstrated its validity as it predicted the critical degree of corrosion and cracking patterns in good agreement with analytical solutions and experimental results. The model demonstrates how the random distribution of coarse aggregate results in a variation of critical degrees of corrosion, which follows a normal distribution. A parametric study was conducted, which indicates that both the mean and variation of critical degree of corrosion increased with the increase of concrete cover thickness, coarse aggregates volume fraction and decrease of coarse aggregate size. In addition, as tensile strength of concrete increased, the average critical degree of corrosion increased while its variation almost remained unchanged.

  • Polycaprolactone (PCL)과 열가소성 전분(thermoplastic starch (TPS))을 이용하여 여러 조성의 블렌드를 제조하였다. PCL/TPS 조성을 90/10, 80/20, 70/30, 60/40, 50/50, 40/60, 30/70, 20/80, 10/90으로 조절한 블렌드의 기계적 물성, 열적 특성, 흡습성, 퇴비화법에 의한 생분해도, 표면 형상 등을 측정, 분석하였다. 인장강도와 신장률은 TPS 함량이 증가함에 따라 감소하였으나, 탄성률은 TPS의 함량이 30%까지 증가하였다. TPS는 23$^{\circ}C$와 126$^{\circ}C$에서 2개의 유리전이온도(T$_{g}$ )를 의였으며, 결정의 용융점 (T$_{m}$ )을 나타내는 흡열 곡선은 보이지 않는 것으로 보아 열가소성 전분은 무정형 고분자임을 알 수 있었다. PCL/TPS 블렌드의 T$_{g}$ 와 T$_{m}$ 변화는 PCL과 TPS 사이의 상용성은 없는 것으로 나타났지만, 블렌드 필름의 파단면 형상을 보여주는 전자현미경 사진은 PCL과 TPS는 서로 상분리가 일어나지만 기계적 상용성은 있는 것으로 나타났다. 45일간의 생분해 실험에서 PCL의 생분해도는 44%였고 PCL/TPS 블렌드의 생분해도는 TPS의 함량이 증가함에 따라 생분해도가 증가하였다.

  • ZrN nanoparticles were prepared by an exothermic reduction of $ZrCl_4$ with $NaN_3$ in the presence of NaCl flux in a nitrogen atmosphere. Using a solid-state combustion approach, we have demonstrated that the zirconium nitride nanoparticles synthesis process can be completed in only several minutes compared with a few hours for previous synthesis approaches. The chemistry of the combustion process is not complex and is based on a metathesis reaction between $ZrCl_4$ and $NaN_3$. Because of the low melting and boiling points of the raw materials it was possible to synthesize the ZrN phase at low combustion temperatures. It was shown that the combustion temperature and the size of the particles can be readily controlled by tuning the concentration of the NaCl flux. The results show that an increase in the NaCl concentration (from 2 to 13 M) results in a temperature decrease from 1280 to $750^{\circ}C$. ZrN nanoparticles have a high surface area (50-70 $m^2/g$), narrow pore size distribution, and nano-particle size between 10 and 30 nm. The activation energy, which can be extracted from the experimental combustion temperature data, is: E = 20 kcal/mol. The method reported here is self-sustaining, rapid, and can be scaled up for a large scale production of a transition metal nitride nanoparticle system (TiN, TaN, HfN, etc.) with suitable halide salts and alkali metal azide.

  • 본 논문에서는 리튬이온 이차전지의 음극에 사용될 수 있는 $CNT/Co_3O_4$ 나노복합체의 합성과 전기화학적 특성에 대해 보고하고 있다. 고용량을 가진 산화물 음극 중 하나인 $Co_3O_4$의 부족한 전기 전도성을 보완하고 상변이 과정에서 발생하는 응력(stress)를 완충하기 위해 CNT와의 복합화가 시도되었다. 그 결과 카본나노튜브 표면에 수 nm 크기의 $Co_3O_4$를 균일하게 분산시켜 복합화 하는데 성공하였으며 제조된 $CNT/Co_3O_4$ 나노복합체는 우수한 고율특성과 안정적인 사이클 특성을 나타내었다. 또한 기존의 상용화된 음극물질인 흑연 보다 높은 방전용량을 가지고 있어 리튬이온 이차전지의 음극물질로 활용될 수 있는 가능성을 보여주었다.

  • 전융실리카 분말로 소결하여 만든 sihca preform을 마그네슘이 함유된 용융 알루미늄에 침적시킨후 공기중에서 반응시켜 Al2O3/Al 복합체를 제조하였다. 복합체 제조시 반응온도의 변화에 대해 용융 알루미늄의 침투거동을 조사한 결과 3가지 영역, 즉 저온영역(75$0^{\circ}C$-85$0^{\circ}C$), 중온영역(90$0^{\circ}C$-95$0^{\circ}C$), 고온영역(100$0^{\circ}C$$\leq$)으로 구분되었다. 저온영역에서는 반응온도에 비례해서 침투속도가 증가하였으나, 중간온도 영역은 치환반응에 의해 생성된 알루미나의 상전이에 따른 영향으로 저온영역인 85$0^{\circ}C$에서보다 오히려 침투속도가 감소하였다. 고온영역중 100$0^{\circ}C$이상에서 침투가 일어나지 않는 것은 용융 알루미늄중의 마그네슘이 먼저 실리카와 반응하여 silica preform의 표면에 치밀한 스피넬층을 형성하기 때문으로 판명되었다.

  • In this study, we investigated the growth of single-crystallinity α-Ga2O3 thin films on c-plane sapphire substrates using halide vapor pressure epitaxy. We also found the optimal growth conditions to suppress the phase transition of α-Ga2O3. Our results confirmed that the growth temperature and partial pressure of the reactive gas greatly influenced the crystallinity. The optimal growth temperature range was about 460~510℃, and the α-Ga2O3 thin films with the highest crystallinity were obtained at a III/VI ratio of 4. The thickness and surface morphology of the thin films was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The film thickness was 6.938 ㎛, and the full width at half maximum of the ω-2θ scan rocking curve was as small as 178 arcsec. The optical band gap energy obtained was 5.21 eV, and the films were almost completely transparent in the near-ultraviolet and visible regions. The etch pit density was found to be as low as about 6.0 × 104 cm-2.

  • In this study, skin permeation enhancement was confirmed by designing it to have a structure and composition similarity to the intercellular lipids that improve miscibility with skin by cross-linked lipids poloxamer. The cross-linked lipids poloxamer was synthesized and analyzed by 1H NMR that structure dose had conjugated pluronic with ceramide3. Active component is released by modification of liquid crystal structure because PPO part, large-scale molecule block of pluronic, has hydrophobic nature at skin temperature of $35^{\circ}C$. Conjugated pluronic with ceramide3 was synthesized using Pluronic F127 and p-NPC (4-nitrophenyl chloroformate) at room temperature yielded 89%. Pluronic(Ceramide 3-conjugated Pluronic) was synthesized by reaction of p-NP-Pluronic with Ceramide3 and DMAP. The yield was 51%. This cross-linked lipids poloxamer was blended and dissolved at isotropic state with skin surface lipids, phospholipid, ceramide, cholesterol and anhydrous additive solvent. Next step was preceded by ${\alpha}$-Transition at low temperature for making the structure of Meso-Phase Lamella, and non-hydrous skin analogue liquid crystal using thermo-sensitivity smart sensor, lamellar liquid crystal structure through aging time. For confirmation of conjugation thermo-sensitivity smart sensor and non-hydrous skin analogue liquid crystal, structural observation and stability test were performed using XRD(Xray Diffraction), DSC(Differential Scanning Calorimetry), PM (Polarized Microscope) And C-SEM (Cryo-Scanning Electron Microscope). Thermo-sensitivity observation by Franz cell revealed that synthesized smart sensor shown skin permeation effect over 75% than normal liquid crystal. Furthermore, normal non-hydrous skin analogue liquid crystal that not applied smart sensor shown similar results below $35^{\circ}C$ of skin temperature, but its effects has increased more than 30% above $35^{\circ}C$.
