Abstract

In this study, effects of both the grafted ABS-g-MAH and the added graphene oxide (GO) on the impact strength of polycarbonate (PC)/poly(acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) (ABS) blends were discussed. The PC/ABS blends and PC/ABS/GO composites were fabricated by using twin screw extruder with ABS-g-MAH as a compatibilizer. The ABS-g-MAH was prepared by melting extrusion of ABS and maleic anhydride (MAH) with DCP (dicumyl peroxide) as an initiator using twin screw extruder and the synthesis of ABS-g-MAH was confirmed by the presence of carbonyl group (C=O) peak at $1780cm^{-1}$ of FT-IR spectrum. According to the thermal, rheological, and impact properties of PC/ABS blends, 5 phr (parts per hundred resin) of compatibilizer was chosen as an optimum content for the PC/ABS/GO composites. It was observed that the thermal decomposition of ABS/PC/GO composites increased with GO contents, but there was no significant changes or a decrease in the impact strength. Also the composite fabricated by ABS/GO showed small increase in the impact strength. From the result of the dynamic rheometer to observe the processing properties, the complex viscosities of PC/ABS blend including the compatibilizer increased, but the complex viscosities of composites added GO were not changed.

본 연구에서는 Polycarbonate (PC)/Poly(acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) (ABS)의 충격강도에 대한 말레인산 무수물(maleic anhydride, MAH)이 그라프트(graft)된 ABS (ABS-g-MAH)의 영향과 graphene oxide (GO)의 첨가에 의한 영향을 고찰하였다. 상용화제로 ABS-g-MAH가 적용된 PC/ABS 블렌드(blend)와 PC/ABS/GO 복합체의 제조에는 이축압출기(twin screw extruder)를 사용하였으며 상용화제인 ABS-g-MAH는 DCP (dicumyl peroxide)를 개시제로 이축압출기에서 제조하였다. FT-IR 스펙트럼의 $1780cm^{-1}$ 근처에서 나타나는 카보닐기(C=O)의 존재 여부를 통해 ABS-g-MAH 제조를 확인하였다. ABS-g-MAH 함량별로 제조된 PC/ABS 블렌드의 열적, 유변학적, 충격특성 측정결과 5 phr을 ABS-g-MAH의 최적 함량으로 선정하였다. 상용화제를 5 phr (parts per hundred resin)로 고정하고 GO의 함량을 0.5, 1, 3, 5 phr로 변화하면서 물성변화를 고찰하였다. PC/ABS/GO 복합체의 분해온도는 증가하였고, 아이조드(Izod) 충격강도는 유사하거나 감소하였으며, ABS/GO를 이용한 복합체의 아이조드 충격강도는 소폭 증가하는 것을 TGA 분석결과와 아이조드 충격시험을 통해 확인하였다. 가공특성을 살펴보기 위해 동적유변분석기를 이용하여 복소점도(complex viscosity)를 측정한 결과, 상용화제를 포함하는 PC/ABS 블렌드의 복소점도는 증가하였으나, GO의 첨가에 의한 복소점도 변화는 크게 나타나지 않았다.
