수용성 접착제의 접착력을 향상시키기 위해 제미니형 비이온 반응성 계면활성제를 합성하여 수계 접착제에 적용하였다. 제미니형 비이온 반응성 계면활성제는 말레산 및 에틸렌옥사이드의 부가몰수가 다른 폴리 옥시 에틸렌 세틸 에테르를 사용하여 합성하였다. 합성된 계면활성제는 FT-IR 및 $^1H-NMR$에 의해 확인되었다. 합성된 화합물은 밝은 노란색 왁스의 형상이었고, 화합물의 운점은 $78^{\circ}C$ 이상이었다. 측정된 임계 미셀 농도(c.m.c)는 $1.0{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}7.0{\times}10^{-4}mol/L$이었고 표면장력은 25.9~32.0 mN/m이었다. 에틸렌옥사이드의 부가몰수가 증가함에 따라 유화력이 향상되었다. Ross-Miles 법에 의한 화합물의 발포 높이는 1.4~4.5 cm이었다. 본 연구에서 합성된 계면활성제는 수성 접착제의 유화 중합에서 유화제로 사용되었으며 그 물성을 평가하였다. 준비된 접착제의 고체 함량은 59%이었다. 접착제의 평균입자크기는 164~297 nm이었다. 접착제의 초기 점착성의 볼 번호는 20~32이었으며, 박리 강도는 $1.8{\sim}2.1kg_f/mm$이었다. 점도 유지율은 30 days 동안 99%로 확인되었다. 합성된 제미니형 비이온 반응성 계면활성제는 점착력을 위한 유화제로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.
In order to improve the adhesion of water-based adhesive, gemini type nonionic reactive surfactants were synthesized and applied to water-based adhesives. The surfactants were synthesized by using maleic acid and polyoxyethylene cetyl ether having different length of ethylene oxide and confirmed by FT-IR and $^1H-NMR$. Their appearance was light yellow wax. The cloud point of the compound was more than $78^{\circ}C$. The measured critical micelle concentration (c.m.c) was $1.0{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}7.0{\times}10^{-4}mol/L$ and surface tension at c.m.c was 25.9~32.0 mN/m. As the number of ethylene oxide increased, the emulsifying power was improved. The foaming height of each compound by Ross-Miles method was 1.4~4.5 cm. The synthesized surfactants was then used as an emulsifier in emulsion polymerization of water-based adhesives and its physical properties were evaluated. The solid contents of prepared adhesives was 59%. The average particle size and initial tackiness of the prepared adhesives were 164~297 nm and ball no. of 20~32, respectively. The peel strength was $1.8{\sim}2.1kg_f/mm$. The retention rate of adhesives viscosity was evaluated to 99% during 30 days. Therefore, synthesized gemini type nonionic reactive surfactants are expected to be applied as an emulsifier for the high adhesive force.
