Abstract
The sericin fixation of silk fabrics by epoxy resins was studied in the presence of aqueous salt solution in different solvents at the indicated temperature for the desired time. Heavy weight gains were obtained in the reaction with glycerol diglycidyl ether (EX-313) and ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EX-810) catalyzed by potassium thiocyanate in such solvents as carbon tetrachloride and p-chloroethylene. The obtained results were summarized as follows; 1) The tested resins were found similar in reaction behavior to silk fabric. The effect of fixation and weight gains was higher in EX-810 than EX-313. 2) The weight gains were increased with reaction time and temperature, and degumming ratio reached a constant value in 90 min at 70$^{\circ}C$. 3) The weight gains and the degumming ratio reached an equilibrium at 3-5% of epoxy concentration. 4) The weight gains were remarkably influenced and increased by the concentration of salt solution. The degumming ratio reached an equilibrium over 0.5N concentration of salt. 5) The weight gains were increased with the dipping time in gently-sloping. The degumming ratio reached an equilibrium over 15 min dipping. 6) The effect of sericin fixation of hydrophobic solvents, such as Carbon Tetrachloride, p-Chloroeth-ylene, Cyclohexane, Xylene and Toluene, was found suitable. 7) The effect of drying temperature was not remarkable on the weight gains and the degumming ratio. 8) There was a slight decrease in the moisture regain of sericin-fixed silk and it may be possible to maintain the moisture regain in the sericin-fixed silk by the epoxy resins. 9) The results on testing physical properties of sericin-fixed silk fabric were as follows; The crease recovery was almost not different from undegummed fabric, but inferior to degummed fabric. The tensile strength was improving in accordance with the effect of sericin fixation, either the elongation did.
수용성염의 존재하에서 여러 가지 용매상에 소정시간, 소정온도로 epoxy수지에 의한 견직물의 sericin정착을 행하였다. Potassium thiocyanate염의 촉매하에서 glycero1 glycidyl ether(EX-313)와 ethylene glycol diglycidylether(EX-810)의 4염화탄소용액중에서의 반응에서 높은 수지부착률을 얻었으며, 정착효과가 뛰어난 것을 알 수 있었다. 얻어진 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 사용한 두 수지는 반응 거동이 유사하였으며, EX-810이 수지부착률이나 정착효과면에서 뛰어 났다. 2. 수지부착률은 반응온도나 반응미간에 따라 증가하였고, 90분 7$0^{\circ}C$에서 연감률은 평형에 도달하였다. 3. 수지부착률과 연감률은 3~5%의 수지농도에서 평형에 달하였다. 4. 촉매의 N농도에 따라 부착률은 현저하게 증가하고 0.5N에서 연감률은 평형에 달하였다. 5. 침지시간의 증가와 더불어 부착률은 완만하게 증가하지만 연감률은 15분간 침지에 평형에 도달하였다. 6. 건조온도의 영향은 없는 것으로 보인다. 7. 수분율의 감소는 미약하여, epoxy 수지에 의한 sericin 정착시 수분율을 유지할 수 있는 가능성을 시사하는 것이라 생각된다. 8. 소수성이 강한 용매인 4염화탄소, p-chloroeth-ylene, cyclohexane, xylene, toluene 등이 정착효과가 뛰어남을 알 수 있다. 9. Sericin 정착포의 물성을 시험한 결과 정착효과가 뛰어날 수록, 유연도는 감소하고, 방추도도 감소하며 강도와 신도는 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었다.
