초록

자동차용 내외장재로 사용하는 열가소성 엘라스토머(thermoplastic elastomer, TPE)로 제조한 시험편 표면에 340 nm의 자외선을 총 $2500\;kJ/m^2$ 조사하였다. 자외선 조사 후 검정 시험편 표면은 뿌옇게 변했다. 노화 전후 시험편 표면에 있는 물질을 채취하여 GC/MS로 분석하였으나 특이한 점이 발견되지 않았다. 노화된 시험편의 표면에서 잔크랙이 다수 발견되었다. 노화된 시험편의 백화 현상은 노화된 표면을 솔질하거나 불로 지지면 사라졌다. 솔질이나 불로 지진 후에는 표면에 있던 잔크랙이 사라졌다. 노화 전후의 시험편과 노화된 시험편 표면을 솔질 혹은 불로 지진 후의 시험편을 영상 분석기, SEM, EDX, ATR 등으로 분석하여 비교한 결과, 솔질이나 불로 처리한 후 제거된 백화 현상은 솔질이나 불에 의한 가열로 TPE의 구성 성분 중 하나인 폴리프로필렌이 잔크랙을 메웠기 때문으로 설명할 수 있다.

340 nm UV radiation of $2500\;kJ/m^2$ irradiated a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) specimen used for interior and exterior materials of a car. After the UV irradiation, the black sample surface was changed to gray. Materials on the aged sample were collected and analyzed using GC/MS, but significant materials were not found. Lots of small cracks were found on the aged specimen surface. Whitening phenomenon of the aged sample disappeared by brushing or searing with a fire on the aged surface. After brushing or searing with a fire, small cracks on the surface vanished. Samples before and after the aging, and the treated samples with brush or fire were analyzed using image analyzer, SEM, EDX, and ATR and the results were compared. The vanished whitening phenomenon by brushing or searing was explained with filling the small cracks by polypropylene of TPE.
