Abstract
The mechanical properties of PA66/GF composite were investigated with respect to moisture exposure, drying temperature (23, 100, 150, 200 oC), and drying time (0~7 hrs). The tensile and flexural strength of the composite decreased after moisture exposure; however, they were recovered as the drying temperature and time increased, respectively. The sorption of moisture on amide chain reduced the interfacial interaction between amide chains, and then first, acted as a softening agent, which resulted in increased mobility of the amide chain, and second, helped recrystallization of amide chain, which resulted in increased mechanical property. We discussed the mechanism of recrystallization of PA66/GF composite with respect to drying temperature and moisture exposure.

수분 및 온도가 폴리아미드66/유리섬유 복합소재의 재결정화 조건 및 물성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 시편을 수분에 노출 후 건조온도(23, 100, 150, 200 oC)와 시간(0~7 hrs)을 변수로 기계적 물성변화를 측정하였다. 인장과 굴곡특성은 수분노출 후 감소하였지만 건조온도와 시간이 증가할수록 수분함량이 감소하면서 기계적 물성이 회복되는 것을 관찰하였다. 이는 소재가 수분을 흡수하였을 시, 수분이 소재 내에서 분자 사슬간의 결합력을 감소시켜서 첫째, 가소제 역할을 하여 분자 사슬의 유동성이 증가하고, 둘째, 아미드 사슬의 재결정화에 유리하게 작용하여 물성을 증가시킨 것으로 판단된다. 이에 대해 폴리아미드66/유리섬유 복합소재의 재결정화에 있어서 건조온도와 수분이 작용하는 메커니즘에 대하여 논의하였다.
