Abstract

In this work, the effect of biodegradable poly(butylene succinate)(PBS) in difunctional epoxy(21:P) resin was investigated in terms of rheological properties, cure kinetics, thermal stabilities, and mechanical interfacial properties. Rheological properties of the blend system were measured under isothermal condition using a rheometer. Cross-linking activation energies($\textrm{E}_c$) were determined from the Arrhenius equation based on gel time and curing temperature. The $\textrm{E}_c$ was increased in the presence of 10 wt% PBS as compared with neat 2EP. From the DSC results of the blends, the cure activation energies($\textrm{E}_a$) showed a similar behavior with $\textrm{E}_c$ due to the increased intermolecular interaction between 2EP and PBS. The decomposed activation energies($\textrm{E}_t$) for the thermal stability derived from the integral method of Horowitz-Metzger equation, were also increased in 10 wt% PBS. In addition, 20 wt% PBS showed the highest critical stress intensity factor($\textrm{E}_{IC}$). which was explained by increasing the fracture toughness of the 2EP/PBS blend systems.

본 실험에서는 2관능성 에폭시 수지(2EP)와 생분해성 poly(butylene succinate)(PBS) 블렌드의 유변학적 특성, 경화거동, 열안정성 그리고 기계적 특성을 살펴보았다. 유변학적 특성은 레오미터를 이용하여 등온 조건 하에서 검토하였고, 겔화시간과 경화 온도를 이용한 Arrhenius 방정식을 적용하여 가교 활성화 에너지($\textrm{E}_c$)를 구하였다. $\textrm{E}_c$는 2EP에 대한 PBS의 비율이 10 wt%로 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. DSC 측정 결과, 경화 활성화 에너지($\textrm{E}_a$)는 $\textrm{E}_c$와 유사만 경향을 나타내었는데 이는 2EP와 PBS 사이의 분자상호작용이 증가하였기 때문으로 사료된다. 그리고 열안정성과 관련하이 분해 활성화에너지($\textrm{E}_t$)는 Horowitz-Metzger식을 이용한 적분법을 사용하여 구하였는데 PBS 10 wt%에서 증가하였다. 그리고 20 wt% PBS일 때 가장 높은 임계응력세기 인자를 보이는데, 이는 2EP/PBS 블렌드 시스템의 파괴인성이 증가하였기 때문으로 사료된다.
