Abstract

Because the physical properties can be decreased when a Nylon 66/glass fiber composite is injected into a mold over $300^{\circ}C$, a systematic study of the thermal history in the case of re-use is needed. Nylon 66/glass fiber extrudates as a function of the extrusion number were prepared using a twin screw extruder at 305/290/273/268/265/$260^{\circ}C$. The chemical structure, thermal properties, melt index, crystal structure, Izod impact strength, and rheological properties were measured by Fourier transform infra-red (FT-IR), melt indexer, DSC, TGA, XRD, Izod impact tester, and dynamic rheometer. The FT-IR spectra indicated that the number of extrusions did not affect the chemical structure. The decrease in molecular weight with increasing extrusion number was confirmed by the melt index and the complex viscosity of extrudates. Based on the DSC and TGA results, the thermal history had no effect on the melting temperature, regardless of the number of extrusions, but the degradation temperature decreased up to $20^{\circ}C$ with increasing extrusion number. The Izod impact strengths of the extrudates were found to decrease with increasing extrusion number. No structural change after extrusion was also confirmed because there was no change in the slope and shape of the G'-G" plot.

나일론66/유리섬유 복합체의 경우 $300^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에서 사출가공 될 때 물성 저하가 일어날 수 있어, 재이용시 열이력에 대한 체계적인 연구가 필요하다. $305/290/273/268/265/260^{\circ}C$ 온도조건의 이축압출기(twin screw extruder)를 이용하여 나일론66/유리섬유 복합체의 압출시료를 압출횟수에 따라 제조하였다. 압출횟수에 따른 화학구조, 열적특성, 용융지수, 결정구조, 아이조드 충격강도 및 유변학적 특성을 FT-IR, 용융지수 측정기, DSC, TGA, XRD, Izod 시험기, 그리고 유변물성 측정기를 이용하여 분석하였다. 적외선분광 스펙트럼을 이용하여 확인한 결과 압출횟수에 따른 압출시편에서의 화학구조 변화는 확인되지 않았다. 압출횟수에 따라 분자량이 감소하는 것을 용융지수와 복소점도를 이용하여 확인하였다. 나일론66/유리섬유 복합체의 용융온도는 큰 변화가 없으나, 압출횟수 증가에 따라 분해온도가 $20^{\circ}C$ 정도까지 감소하는 것을 DSC와 TGA를 이용하여 확인하였다. 압출시편의 아이조드 충격강도는 압출횟수가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 또한 나일론66/유리섬유 복합체 압출시편의 G'-G" 곡선의 기울기나 형태가 변하지 않는 것으로부터 압출시편에 가교와 같은 구조변화가 크게 나타나지 않음을 알 수 있었다.
