  • 대기압 플라즈마는 기존의 저압 플라즈마에 비해 제작이 간단하고 조작이 간편하기 때문에 응용 가능 분야가 넓다는 장점이 있지만 다양한 외부 요인으로 인한 안정성의 문제로 저압 플라즈마의 모든 응용범위를 대신하기에는 문제점이 있다. 현재 이 문제점을 해결하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행 중에 있으며, 기판 및 유리 세정, Bio-medical, 물질 합성 등 다양한 분야에 대한 응용 연구도 진행 중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 본 연구실에서 자체 개발한 전원 장치를 이용하여 대기압 플라즈마를 발생 시켰으며, He, Ar Gas를 이용하여 PDMS 기판과 유리 기판에 표면 처리 한 후 친수성 비교 분석 실험을 실시하였다. Optical Emission Spectroscopy(OES)장치와 ICCD camera를 이용하여 플라즈마 진단과 특성 분석을 실시하였으며 Computer Numerical Control (CNC) x-y-z 3축 stage를 이용하여 플라즈마 발생을 제어함으로서 재현성을 높은 플라즈마 표면 처리 연구를 진행 하였다.

  • This paper investigated the aging characteristic under long-term corona discharge on roan temperature vulcanized silicone rubber, which has been using as a protective coating material for solving the contaminant problem. The applied electrical field is 10kV/cm ac and corona discharge treatment was applied on RTV silicone rubber sheet for maximum 250 hours. With the duration of corona discharge. the diffusible low molecular weight species increased, which was determined the usage of n-hexane extraction method. In addition, the contaminant layer was formed on the treated surface, and then measured the contact angle. We investigated the relation of contact angle and diffusible low molecular weight species. It is found that scissor of main chain PDMS and side chains $(CH_3)$ and the generation of LMW species were occurred by a corona discharge. The improvement of hydrophobicity rate is thought due to the increase of diffusible LMW species.

  • Hydrophilicities of finished cotton fabrics were evaluated in respect of moisture regain and wickability. Changes in internal structure were determined using X-ray diffraction and surface changes in degraded samples were observed through a microscopy. Activated sludge test, soil burial test and enzyme hydrolysis were employed to evaluate the biodegradabilities. In addition, correlation analysis was done between biodegradability and the factors affecting biodegradability in each evalution methods. It was shown that hydrophilicities of silicone finished specimens were lower than that of untreated cotton and decreased in a row of PDMS(polydimethyl siloxane : -CH$_3$)>AFS(amino functional siloxane ; -C$_3$H$_{6}$ NHC$_2$H$_4$NH$_2$)>MHPS(methylhydrogen polysiloxane : -H, Cat : (C$_{17}$ H$_{35}$ COO)$_2$Zn) Although, moisture regain of mercerized cotton was higher than those of the others, wickability was shown to be lower. It was represented that crystalinities of cotton fabrics decreased by the silicone treatment. In activated sludge test and soil burial test, biodegradabilities of silicone treated specimens were lower than that of untreated cotton, where specimens of higher biodegradability exhibited higher biodegradability except mercerized ones. The results from enzyme hydrolysis, however, showed somewhat different tendency in that biodegradability was more closely related with the crystallinities of fabrics. It can be thought that enzyme hydrolysis is carried out for short time, physical accessibility becomes important.
