Abstract

Interfacial evaluation of glass fiber reinforced carbon nanotube (CNT)-epoxy nanocomposite was investigated by micromechanical technique in combination with wettability test. The contact resistance of the CNT-epoxy nanocomposite was measured using a gradient specimen, containing electrical contacts with gradually-increasing spacing. The contact resistance of CNT-epoxy nanocomposites was evaluated by using the two-point method rather than the four-point method. Due to the presence of hydrophobic domains on the heterogeneous surface, the static contact angle of CNT-epoxy nanocomposite was about $120^{\circ}$, which was rather lower than that for super-hydrophobicity. For surface treated-glass fibers, the tensile strength decreased dramatically, whereas the tensile modulus exhibited little change despite the presence of flaws on the etched fiber surface. The interfacial shear strength (IFSS) between the etched glass fiber and the CNT-epoxy nanocomposites increased due to the enhanced surface energy and roughness. As the thermodynamic work of adhesion, $W_a$ increased, both the mechanical IFSS and the apparent modulus increased, which indicated the consistency with each other.

유리섬유 강화 CNT-에폭시 나노복합재료의 계면특성은 미세역학적 시험법과 젖음성 측정을 통하여 평가하였다. CNT-에폭시 나노복합재료의 접촉저항은 전기적 접촉부가 일정하게 점차적으로 증가하는 경사형 (gradient) 시편으로 측정되었다. CNT-에폭시나노복합재료의 접촉저항은 2-점법 대신에 4-점법을 사용하여 평가하였다. 불균일한 표면에 존재하는 소수성 영역 때문에 CNT-에폭시 나노복합재료의 어떤 부분은 초소수성보다는 다소 낮은 접촉각인 120도를 가졌다. 표면처리된 유리섬유는 에칭된 섬유 표면의 흠이 있지만 인장 강성도는 약간의 변화가 나타나는 반면에, 인장강도는 현저하게 감소하였다. 에칭된 유리섬유와 CNT-에폭시 나노복합재료는 표면 에너지와 거친 정도가 증가함으로써, 계면전단강도가 증가되었다 열역학적 에너지 일인 $W_a$가 증가함에 따라, 기계적 계면전단강도와 겉보기 강성도 모두 상호일치하게 증가를 보여주었다.
