Abstract

탄소나노튜브(CNT)의 물성은 고분자재료의 기계적, 전도성, 열적 물성을 향상시켜주기 때문에 많은 분야에서 소재개발을 진행 중이다. 본 연구에서는 사전에 CNT 10 wt% 페이스트를 제조하여 나노입자에 대한 분산도와 나노복합재료 생산성을 높일 수 있는 기초 재료를 제조하였다. 제조된 CNT 10 wt% 페이스트를 이용하여 손상 감지용 CNT 나노복합재료를 제조하여 균열에 대한 손상감지능과 균열 보강효과에 대한 영향을 연구하였다. CNT 10 wt% 페이스트를 이용하여 제조된 CNT 1 wt% 나노복합재는 일반 CNT 파우더를 이용하여 CNT 1 wt% 나노복합재료를 제조하였을 경우보다 인장과 굴곡물성이 높음을 확인하였다. CF30wt%/PP에 인위적인 균열을 제조하고, 균열부위에 CNT 나노복합재료를 보강하여 균열 및 파괴 발생 감지능을 균열크기에 따라 전기저항 측정법과 인장물성평가를 통해 분석하였다. CNT 나노복합재료를 균열 부위에 보강하여 CF30wt%/PP의 인장물성을 분석하였을 경우, 균열보강효과가 있었다. 균열크기가 증가함에 따라 CNT 나노복합재료의 보강효과의 증가되었다. 이는 CNT 나노복합재료와 CF30wt%/PP간의 접착면 증가로 균열전파를 지연하기 때문이다. CNT 나노복합재료의 손상감지능에 대해서는 전기저항 평가법으로 분석하였으며, 접착면에서의 분리로 인해 CNT 나노복합재료에 충격이 가해져 높은 전기저항 증가구간을 확인하였다. 손상감지용 CNT 나노복합재료의 균열방지효과와 손상감지에 대한 전기저항 평가법의 가능성을 확인하였다.

Nancomposites manufacture has been developed rapidly, because of reinforcing effects of CNT in terms of mechanical, electrical and thermal properties. In this study, 10 wt% CNT paste was fabricated with good dispersion state and easy processability. Damage sensing and reinforcing effect of CNT paste were investigated in nanocomposites. 10 wt% CNT paste exhibited better tensile and flexural properties than those of general 1 wt% CNT nanocomposites. To observe the healing effect of CNT paste, a crack was made artificially with 30wt% CF30wt%/PP composites, and the CNT paste was filled inside the crack. The damage sensing of CNT paste in CF30wt%/PP composites was investigated by electrical resistance measurement and mechanical tests. CNT paste exhibited good reinforcing effect in mechanical properties of CF30wt%/PP composites, and this reinforcing effect was getting better with larger cracks. The reason was because CNT paste had good interfacial adhesion with CF30wt%/PP composites to resist crack propagation. In electrical resistance measurement, there was a jump in electrical resistance signal at the adhesion interface. The jumping signal could be used to predict fracture of CF/PP composites. CNT nanocomposites for damage sensing had crack reducing effect and damage detection using electrical resistance method.
