The Carbon/Carbon composite was prepared from 3D carbon fiber preform and coal tar pitch as matrix precursor. In order to evaluate of ablative characteristics of the composite, liquid rocket system was employed Kerosene and liquid oxygen was used as propellants, operating at a nominal chamber pressure of 330 psi and a nominal mixture ratio (O/F) of 2.0. The results of an experimental evaluation were that high density composite exhibited high, while low density composites showed low erosion resistance. The erosion rate against heat flux was highly depended on the density of the materials. The morphology of eroded fiber showed differently according to collision angle with heat flux on the composite. The granular matrix which derived from carbonization pressure of 900 bar was more resistance to heat flux than well-developed flow type matrix.

In this study, the effects of carbon black (CB) content and anodic oxidation treatment with AgNO3 on positive temperature coefficient (PTC) behavior of CB/HDPE nanocomposites were investigated. Also, the addition of elastomer as a toughing agent was studied. The 20~50 wt% of CB, 0~5 wtt% of elastomer, and 1 wt% of AgNO3-filled HDPE nanocomposites were prepared using the internal mixer in 60 rpm at 160˚C and the compression-molded at 180˚C for 10 min. As a result, the room temperature resistivity and PTC intensity of the composites were dependent, to a large extent, on the content of CB, addition of elastomer, and surface chemical properties that were controlled in the relative arrangements of the carbon black aggregates in a polymeric matrix. Moreover, the composites with relatively low room temperature resistivity and suitable PTC intensity could be achieved by treatment of AgNO3. Consequently, it was noted that PTC effect was due to the deagglomeration or the breakage of the conductive networks caused by thermal expansion or crystalline melting of the polymeric matrix.

/TiN nano/nano-type composites were successfully fabricated by the combination of a mechano-chemical grinding (MCG) method and a short time sintering process, and their wear resistance was evaluated. Powder mixtures of and Ti were prepared using mechano-chemical grinding process and the resulting nanocomposite powder mixtures were consolidated using pulsed electric current sintering (PECS). TEM observation showed that the nano/nano-type composites consisted of homogeneous and very fine matrix grains with the size less than 100 nm. The obtained -based nano/nano-type showed high wear resistance and electric discharge machinability.

섬유함유율이 0%, 20% 그리고 30%인 단섬유 GF/PP 복합재료를 사용하여 80℃, 50℃ 그리고 실온에서 인장시험을 통하여 온도의 변화에 대한 파괴강도의 거동을 고찰한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 유리섬유로 강화하지 않은 순수 PP보다 유리섬유로 강화한 복합재료의 인장강도가 높게 나타났으며 섬유함유율이 증가할수록 그 값은 높게 나타났다. 2) 동일한 섬유함유율을 가지는 GF/PP 복합재료의 온도변화에 따른 인장강도는 실온의 경우가 가장 높게 나타나고 고온으로 갈수록 그 값이 낮게 나타났다. 3) GF/PP 복합재료의 파괴기구는 온도의 변화에 따라 매트릭스의 변형이 나타났으며 섬유의 풀아웃, 섬유와 매트릭스 사이의 디본딩을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 이와 같은 파괴기구가 종합적으로 상호작용한다고 생각된다.

본 연구에서는 특별하게 고안된 In-situ VHP 제조 공정을 이용하여 상온에서 500˚C까지의 진공 열간 압축과 canning 작업 없이 520˚C에서 연속 압출옳 하여 Sicp/pure Al과 SiCp/2024Al MMCs를 제조하였다. 복합재료의 인장강도와 미세구조에 영향을 주는 SiC 입자크기, 체적률, 압출비에 대해서 조사하였다. 압출비 10:1의 경우에는 SiCp/pure Al과 SiCp/2024Al 복합재료 둘 다 건전한 외형과 SiCp의 일정한 분산을 가지면서 SiCp의 균열이 없는 좋은 미세 구조를 가지고 있었다. 그러나 압출비 16:1의 경우에는 체적률이 증가할수록 파괴된 SiC 입자의 수가 증가하였으며 2024Al 기지내의 복합재료와 순수한 Al 기지재 복합재료를 서로 비교하였다. 동일한 체적률과 압출비의 경우에는 SiCp의 크기가 작은 복합재료가 SiCp가 큰 복합재료보다 인장강도가 더 높았다.

많은 연구결과들은 국부적 용융체의 존재가 고온인장 변형 시 발생하는 내부공극의 발달을 억제할 수 있음을 보고하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 국부적 용융체가 존재한다고 해서 반드시 고변형속도 초소성 현상이 관찰될 수 있는 것은 아니다. 금속기지와 보강재간의 계면에 국부적 용융체의 양이 너무 많이 존재하면 두상간의 결합력이 떨어져 금속기지상으로부터 보강재가 분리되는 현상이 야기될 수 있기 때문이다. 그러므로, Si3N4p 2124 Al 복합재의 초소성 유동 특성을 이해하기 위해 변형온도에 따른 미세구조 변화와 계면특성을 조사하였다. 본 연구를 룽해 Si3N4p 2124 Al 복합재에서 Al-기지와 Si3N4p 강화상간의 계면상의 국부적 용융이 시작되는 온도부근에서는 큰 초소성 특성이 얻어지지만, 국부적 용융이 시작되는 온도를 지난 인장온도범위에서는 오히려 초소성 특성이 현저하게 저하되는 현상이 관찰되었다. 위의 실험결과는 Si3N4p 2124 Al복합재의 고변형속도 초소성 거동에 기여하는 최적의 액상량이 존재한다는 것을 의미한다.

A centrifugally atomized 2024A1/SiC/sub p/ composites were extruded to study effect of clusters on mechanical properties, and a model was proposed that the strength of MMCs would be estimated from the load transfer model approach that taken into consideration of the clusters. This model has been successfully utilized to predict the strength and fracture toughness of MMCs. The experimental and calculated results show coincidence and that the fracture toughness decreases with increasing the volume fraction of particles. On the basis of experimental observations, we suggest that the strength and fracture toughness of particle reinforced MMCs may be calculated from; σ/sub y/=σ/sub m/V/sub m/+σ/sub r/(V/sub r/-V/sub c)-σ/sub r/V/sub c/, K/sub IQ/=σ/sub Y/((3πt)((r/sub r//V/sub r/)(r/sub c//V/sub c/))/sup 1/2/)/sup 1/2/, respectively.

기능경사재(FGM)는 구성 물질의 체적분율(volume fraction)이 복합재 전체에 걸쳐 연속적 그리고 기능적으로 분포되어 있어, 기존의 이종물질 접합식(bi-material-type) 복합재보다 현저히 우수한 열기계적 특성을 가진다. 하지만, 기능경사 내열복합재의 열-탄소성 거동은 체적분율의 분포형태와 경사층이 차지하는 상대두께비에 따라 절대적으로 좌우된다. 본 연구는 기능경사 내열복합재의 열-탄소성 특성의 이들 두 설계인자에 대한 파라메트릭 FEM해석을 다룬 것이다. 열-탄소성 이론과 유한요소 근사화에 따라 연구용 2차원 FEM 프로그램을 개발하고, 대표적인 3층 구조의 2차원 기능경사 내열복합재의 열-탄소성 특성을 설계변수의 다양한 조합에 따라 분석하였다.

It is well known that the fabrication process of carbon/carbon composites is very complex. Above all, the carbonization process have major effect on the morphology development of carbon matrix. Carbon/carbon composites of 4-directional fiber preform were fabricated using the coal tar based pitch as a matrix precursor in this study. According to carbonization pressure of 1 bar, 100 bar, 600 bar, and 900 bar, morphological changes of cokes and matrix of composites were discussed. As the carbonization pressure increased to 600 bar, the flow pattern morphology of bulk mesophse was well developed. On the contrary, mosaic pattern morphology was found in case of 900 bar of carbonization pressure. It is confirmed that the carbonization pressure have profound effect on the degree of graphitization and crystal size of carbon matrix. Even in the highly densified carbon/carbon composites, large voids were still found in the matrix pocket region.

The effect of electrochemical surface treatments in KOH chemical solution on microstructures of carbon blacks was investigated in terms of surface functional values and XRD measurements. And their mechanical interfacial properties of the carbon blacks/rubber composites were studied by the composite tearing energy (GIIIC). It was found that the development of basic-surface functional groups lead to the significant physical changes of carbon blacks, such as, decrease of the interlayer spacing (d002), increase of the crystalline size along c-axis (Lc), and increase of degree of crystalline (χc). This treatment is possibly suitable for carbon blacks to be incorporated in a hydrocarbon rubber matrix, resulting in improving the hardness and tearing energy of the resulting composites.

석출경화형 6061Al기지합금과 SiC입자크기를 0.7μm 및 7.0μm로 변화시켜 강화한 SiCp/6061Al 합금복합재료의 시효 거동을 경도측정, DSC 시험 및 TEM관찰을 통하여 조사하였다. 170˚C에서 등온시효시 6061Al기지합금에 비하여 복합화한 0.7μmSiCp/6061Al합금복합재료 및 7.0μmSiCP/6061Al합금복합재료에서 최고경도에 도달하는 시간이 짧았으며, 또한 강화재의 크기가 큰 7.0μmSiCp/6061Al합금복합재료에서 시효촉진이 보다 크게 나타났다. 이것은 복합화 및 SiC입자크기 증가에 따른 전위 밀도 상승에 기인한다. 6061Al기지합금 및 복합재료에서 최고시효처리시의 주강화상은 봉상의 중간상 β(Mg2Si)이며,β상 생성의 활성화에너지는 복합화 및 SiG입자크기의 증가에 따라 감소되었다

In this work, the carbon fibers-reinforced carbon matrix composites made with different carbon char yields of phenolic resin matrix have been characterized by mechanical flexural tests for acoustic emission properties. The composites had been fabricated in the form of two-dimensional polyacrylonitrile based carbon fibers during the carbonization process. It was found that the composites made with the carbon char yield-rich of resin matrix result in better mechanical interfacial properties, i.e., the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) of the composites. The data obtained from the acoustic emission monitored appeared to show that the composites made with carbon char yield-rich were also more ductile. From the acoustic emission results, the primary composite failure was largely depended on the debonding at interfaces between fibers and matrix. The interlaminar shear strengths of the composites were correlated with the acoustic emission results.

3Y-TZP, 12Ce-TZP 및 3Y-TZP, 12Ce-TZP 현탁액의 제타포텐셜과 겉보기점도의 측정으로부터 슬립주입공정에 의한 다층복합체의 제조조건을 조사하였다. 아울러 다층복합체의 소결밀도, 미세구조, 결정상에 미치는 열처리의 영향을 검토하였다. 3Y-TZP와 12Ce-TZP 현탁액의 등전점을 pH 8부근이었으나 3Y-TZP/12Ce-TZP의 등전점은 pH8.6이었다. 현탁액은 전단속도의 증가와 더불어 점도가 감소하는 의가소성유동을 나타내었다. 15 및 20vol% 고체함량을 갖는 3Y-TZP와 3Y-TZP/12Ce-TZP 현탁액은 소량(0.3wt%)의 유기해교제의 첨가만으로 슬립주입에 적당한 유동성을 보유하였으나, 12Ce-TZP의 경우는 점도를 감소시키기 위하여 부가적인 전해질이 필요하였다. 이론밀도의 98% 이상을 보유하고 0.3~2.2μm의 입경을 갖는 치밀한 다층복합체가 1500˚C 소결로 얻어졌다.

The effect of surface free energy on the positive temperature coefficient (PTC) of carbon black/thermoplastic resin composites was investigated. The thermoplastic resins such as EVA, LDPE, LLDPE and HDPE were used with the addition of 30 wt.% of the carbon black. The surface free energy of the composites was studied in the context of two-liquid contact angle measurements, i.e., deionized water and diiodomethane. It was observed that the resistivity on PTC composites Was greatly increased near the crystalline melting temperature, due to the thermal expansion of polymeric matrix. From the experimental results, it was proposed that the decrease of surface free energy induced by interactions between carbon black surfaces and polymer chains is an important factor to the fabrication of a PTC composite made of carbon black and polymeric matrix.
