Abstract

Modified polypropylene (m-PP) was fabricated by furfuryl sulphide (FS) as branching agent and m-PP/nano-filler composites were prepared with silicate and multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT), using a twin screw extruder. The chemical structures and thermal properties of the m-PP were investigated by FTIR and DSC. The chemical structure of the m-PP was confirmed by the existence of =C-H stretching peak of the branching agent at 3100 $cm^{-1}$. There was no district change in melting temperature in case of m-PP, but a certain increase in crystallization temperature was notified and the increase was in the range of $10-20^{\circ}C$. The rheological properties, filler dispersion and foaming behaviors of the m-PP/nano-filler composites were investigated by dynamic rheometer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and scanning/transmission electron microscope (SEM/TEM). m-PP/nano-filler composites showed a high complex viscosity at a low frequency, an increase in melt elasticity, and a high shear thinning effect. Compared to pure PP, m-PP and m-PP/nano-filler composites were sufficient to enhance the foaming behavior.

이축압출기(twin screw extruder)를 이용하여 용융상태에서 furfuryl sulphide를 분지제로 개질 폴리프로필렌(modified polypropylene, m-PP)을 제조하고, 층상 실리케이트와 다중벽 탄소나노튜브(multi-walled carbon nanotube, MWCNT)와의 m-PP/나노필러 복합체를 제조하였다. m-PP의 화학구조와 열적 특성은 적외선분광기(FTIR), 시차주사열용량분석기(DSC)를 이용하여 관찰하였다. m-PP의 화학구조는 3100 $cm^{-1}$에서 나타나는 분지제의 =C-H 신축진동피크를 이용하여 확인하였고, 용융온도는 큰 변화를 보이지 않았지만 결정화온도는 $10-20^{\circ}C$ 가량 증가하였다. m-PP/나노필러 복합체의 유변학적 특성과 분산성 및 발포거동은 동적유변측정기, X-선 회절분석기(XRD), 주사/투과전자현미경(SEM/TEM)을 이용하여 관찰하였다. m-PP/나노필러 복합체의 낮은 주파수 영역에서의 복합점도와 용융탄성이 증가하였으며, 전단담화(shear thinning) 효과 또한 증가하였다. 순수 PP와 비교할 때 m-PP와 m-PP/나노필러 복합체의 발포 거동 개선효과가 우수한 것을 확인하였다.
