Abstract

This study were subjected to accelerated weathering test under freeze-thaw and pressure conditions to observe initiation and propagation of cracks using CLSM. Applied stress was set at 50 MPa, 55 MPa, 70 MPa for 3 samples each by using compressor and freeze-thaw experiment was conducted while samples maintained that condition. In freeze-thaw experiments, a temperature range was set to -20~40℃ which was 1 cycle for 6 hours. The freeze-thaw cycle was composed of time which reached to set temperature for 1 hour and holding time for 2 hours. On the basis of this cycle, surface of samples was observed by CLSM after each 20 freeze-thaw cycle. From this research, according to increase freeze-thaw cycle, there were 7, 10, 19 each cracks and High pressured sample's accumulate length was longer than low pressured sample's. High pressured sample's crack velocities were also faster than low pressured sample's which were calculated by accumulate length and freeze-thaw cycle.

본 연구에서는 다초점 레이저 스캔 현미경 (confocal laser scanning microscope, CLSM)을 활용한 균열의 생성 및 성장에 대한 분석을 실시하기 위해 가압조건 및 동결/융해를 통하여 풍화를 가속시킨 실험을 수행하였다. 실험에 적용된 가압조건은 시료 3개에 각 가압틀을 이용하여 50 MPa, 55 MPa, 70 MPa로 설정하였으며 조건을 유지한 상태로 동결/융해 실험을 실시하였다. 실시된 동결/융해 실험에서 온도 조건은 -20~40℃로 설정하고, 설정 온도까지 도달시간 1시간, 유지시간 2시간을 기본으로 6시간을 1주기로 하였다. 이를 바탕으로 동결/융해 매 20주기가 끝난 후 CLSM을 활용하여 시료의 표면을 관찰하였다. 그 결과 동결/융해 실험이 반복되면서 각 시료에 발생한 균열의 개수가 7개, 10개, 19개로 가해진 압력에 따라 차이를 보였고 균열의 누적 길이도 가해진 압력이 큰 시료에서 길게 나타났다. 측정한 균열의 누적 길이와 동결/융해 실험 주기를 통해 계산한 균열의 성장 속도 역시 압력의 세기에 따라 높은 압력을 가한 시료에서 빠르게 나타났다.
