Diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA) was selected as a compatibilizer in Nylon 6 and bisphenol-A polycarbonate (PC) blends. SEM revealed a much finer morphology in the presence of DGEBA. The thermal properties, such as glass transition, melting point, crystallization temperature and rate, of the blends were examined using DSC. Overall, the introduction of DGEBA caused a strong dependence of these thermal properties on the composition due to compatibilization.

Nylon 6 섬유는 우수한 기계적 물성과(강성, 탄성회복률 등) 염색성 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 의류용 등의 다양한 용도로 활용되어 왔다. Nylon 6 섬유를 포함한 대부분의 합성섬유는 천연섬유인 cotton 대비 흡수성이 낮고, cotton은 흡수성은 탁월하나 수분 건조속도가 매우 느리고 가격이 고가(약 10$/kg)여서 이를 대체할 새로운 고쾌적성 의류용 nylon 합성섬유의 개발이 시도되고 있다. 1953년 최초로 합성이 보고된 nylon 4는 구조상 소수성 탄소수가 적으며 친수성 아마이드기가 상대적으로 많아 흡수성과 속건성이 탁월한 이점을 가짐으로써 면을 대체할 수 있는 꿈의 합성섬유로 인식되었다. 1980년대 Chevron Research사를 중심으로 활발한 사업화 연구가 진행되었지만, 녹는점 $265^{\circ}C$) 대비 낮은 열분해온도($260^{\circ}C$) 특성으로 방사가공 시 내열성 문제를 극복하지 못해 아직까지 상업화에 이르지는 못하고 있다. 최근, 일본 산업기술종합연구소(AIST)를 중심으로 다시 바이오매스 유래 nylon 4의 개발이 시도됨에 따라 의류용 용도전개에 있어 가격 경쟁력을 갖춘 획기적인 소재 전환이 기대되고 있으며, 이로 인해 nylon 4 중합 연구가 다시 전 세계적 주목을 받기 시작하였다. 국내에서도 최근 nylon 4의 방사 내열성을 극복하고 기능성 부여가 가능한 nylon 4 공중합물에 대한 대체 연구가 본격적으로 진행 중에 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 국내에서 진행 중인 nylon 4 공중합 섬유의 연구동향과 함께 nylon 6 대비 물성 및 염색특성 차이를 비교함으로써 향후 산업화에 기초 자료로 활용하고자 한다.

We investigated the flame retardancy and the mechanical properties of Nylon6 by using melamine-based halogen-free flame retardants(melamine cyanurate:MC-100 and melamine phosphate:MP-100). We chose the UL-94 method for flame retardancy and measured the tensile strength, flexural strength, flexural modulus by using UTM and impact strength by using Izod impact tester. We also tested the effect of nano-clay on flammability and mechanical properties. We obtained the V0 grade when the concentration of flame retardant was over 5 wt%. The tensile strength and flexural strength decreased and flexural modulus increased with the concentration of both flame retardant systems. The results showed that MC-100 system was better than MPP-100 system. Because of poor dispersion, we did not obtain the synergistic effect of nano-clay.

To overcome drawbacks of the nylon 6/poly (acrylonitrile-co-butadiene-co-styrene) (ABS) blend, nylon 6 blend with poly (acrylonitrile - co-styrene - co-acrylic rubber) (ASA) which containing poly (butyl acrylate) as a rubber phase in substitute of poly (butadiene) in ABS, was examined. Poly (styrene-co-maleic anhydride) (SMA) containing 25 wt% of maleic anhydride (MA) or poly (styrene- co-acrylo-nitrile-co-maleic anhydride) (SANMA) containing less than 3 wt% MA was used as a compatibilizer to fabricate blends having high impact strength. Changes in the mechanical properties of nylon 6/ASA blend with compatibilizer content were similar with those of nylon 6/ABS blend. Blends haying high impact strength was produced when blends contained more than about 20 wt% rubber. Blends containing SAM or SANMA as a compatibilizer were stayed in a injection molding machine at the molding temperature and afterwards specimens for the examination of the impact strength was prepared. Impact strength of blends containing SMA was decreased with retention time, while that of blends containing SANMA was not changed with retention time.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dyeing property and ultraviolet-cut ability on silk 100% and nylon 100% fabrics dyed with Rhus verniciflua extracts. This study was investigated K/S values, surface color, washing fastness, dry cleaning fastness and ultraviolet-cut ability of the silk and nylon fabrics dyed with Rhus verniciflua extracts under the various dyeing conditions. As mordanting were used Tin(II) Chloride dihydrate $(SnCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O)$, Copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate$(CuSO_5{\cdot}5H_2O)$, Iron(II)Chloride$(FeC_2{\cdot}4H_2O)$. pH was adjusted by sodium carbonate$(Na_2CO_3)$ and formic acid(HCOOH). The optimum dyeing temperature, dyeing time, and pH of the silk fabrics dyed with Rhus verniciflua extracts were $90^{\circ}C$, 100min, and in the nylon fabrics were $90^{\circ}C$, 45min. It were colored(munsell value) 6.4Y 7.5/4.1 in the silk fabrics and colored 4.3Y 6.6/5.9 in the nylon fabrics dyed with Rhus verniciflua extracts. Washing fastness and dry-cleaning fastness in the silk and nylon fabrics dyed with mordanting agent improved in $4{\sim}5$ grade. UV-A test showed that nylon fabrics a high rate of 92% with Rhus verniciflua extracts.

Impact modifier reinforced polymers are frequently used. In this study, Izod impact test has been simulated to analyze the mechanism of impact reinforcement of Nylon6 which contains impact modifier. The modeling of rubber particles added to Nylon6 as an impact modifier has been attempted. Based on the modeling, simulation of Izod impact test has been performed to observe the distribution and direction of stress at the cross-section of impact specimen. Three computer simulation models for Nylon6 were investigated. Those were without impact modifier, containing impact modifier without surface treatment, and containing impact modifier with surface treatment in the Nylon6. Simulation results showed that the stress which originated at the notch surface propergated to the inside of specimen round a impact modifier. In addition to that, impact modifier reinforced Nylon6 specimen showed low stress ditribution in the cross-section specially at notch surface. Principal stress in perpendicular direction to crack was also lowered in impact modifier reinforced Nylon6. These enhanced impact resistance reduced and crack propergations. Through this study it was realized that the computer simulation can be utilized to investigate the property enhacement of composite materials.

Highly conductive polyaniline(PAn)-nylon 6 composite fabric was prepared by immersing the nylon 6 fabric in 0.5M aniline+0.35M HCl aqueous solution at 4$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hours, Polymerization was then followed by mixing the prepared oxidant and dopant solution(0.5M(NH4)2S2O+0.35M HCl) to the diffusion bath at 5$^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. The conductivity of prepared PAn-nylon 6 composite fabrics reached as high as 0.5$\times$10-1S/cm. Their conductivity were significantly affected by the aniline and oxidant concentration. As compared to those of nylon 6 fabric heat of fusion melting point the degree of crystallinity and tensile strength of PAn-nylon 6 did not significantly changed by inclusion of PAn. In the aspect of serviceability wheras the fabric conductivity was significantly decreased after multiple washion no significant changes in the fabric conductivity were observed after abrading the composite fabric over 50 cycles. However we found that the fabric conductivity could be recovered by acid re-doping with HCl.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) and nylon 6 films stretched uniaxially and biaxially were sputter etched in the presence of argon gas. The surface of the etched films was investigated using a scanning electron microscope(SEM). While cracks perpendicular to the stretched direction were observed in the uniaxil stretched films sputter etched for 30 min., many protrusions were formed in the biaxial stretched films at the height of 0.3-0.4 gm for PET and $0.1-0.2\mum$ for nylon 6. The tops of two or three protrusions merged etching time increased to 60 min. The contact angle to water of the sputter etched PET and nylon 6 films decreased steeply when etched for one to 3 min. In order to investigate chemical changes on the surface ESCA analysis was carried out. In both films sputter etched $C_{1s}$ intensity decreased and $O_{1s}$ intensity increased compared with the unetched ones.

The thermal transitions of a nylon 6/layered silicate nanocomposite were studied by differential scanning calorimetry and in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The drawn film of the nylon 6/layered silicate nanocomposite typically showed three endotherms in the DSC thermogram; a very broad endotherm at $\sim120^{\circ}C(T_{1})$, a double-melting endotherm at $\sim215^{\circ}C(T_{2})$, and a high temperature endotherm at $\sim240^{\circ}C(T_{3})$. The drawn film of the nylon 6/ layered silicate nanocomposite was comprised of a mixture of the $\alpha and \gamma$ forms, with $the \alpha form$ being generated by drawing the pressed film having $the \gamma form$. The melting and crystallization of the crystals were observed at the above thermal transitions during the heating experiment performed at the Pohang X-ray synchrotron radiation source (4C2). The newly generated form was meta-stable and melted $at {\sim}T_{1}$. The double-melting $at {\sim}T_{2}$ was due to the exothermic crystallization of $the \alpha form$ during the main endothermic melting of $the \gamma form$. $The \alpha form$ crystallized $at {\sim}T_{2}$ and melted $at {\sim}T_{3}$.
