플라즈마를 이용한 유리섬유강화 복합절연재료의 표면처리에 관한 연구

Abstract

본 연구에서는 에폭시계 복합 절연재료 Glass-cloth/Epoxy 의 계면 접착특성을 향상시키기 위하여 표면처리 조건에 따라 각각 복합 절연재료를 제작하였고, 전기·기계적특성의 상관관계를 다음과 같은 실험을 행하여 비교하였다. Glass의 젖음의 정도를 평가하기 위하여 표면처리 조건에 따라 주위온도 80[℃]에서 접촉각을 측정하였고, 주위온도 및 인가전압을 변화시키면서 비유전율(εr), 유전정접(tanδ) 및 전기적 절연강도를 측정하였다. 기계적 특성을 측정한 후에 파단면의 형상을 SEM으로 분석, 검토하였다.

실험 결과, (1) 주위온도가 상승함에 따라 비유전율 및 유전정접은 증가하였고, 전기적 절연강도는 감소하였으며 플라즈마 처리함으로서 전기·기계적특성은 전반적으로 향상되었다. (2) 접촉각 측정 주위온도가 80[℃]일 때, 표면처리 조건에 따른 젖음성은 각각 다르게 나타났고 플라즈마 처리효과는 표면세정, 미세요철, 표면대전 및 젖음성의 감소와 같은 복합효과로 볼 수 있다. (4) 전기·기계적특성의 관점에서 복합 절연재료의 경화온도가 80[℃]일 때, Glass-cloth/Epoxy복합 절연재료의 최적처리시간은 3분 정도로 나타났다.

The Glass-cloth/Epoxy composite insulating materials for this study have been prepared with several different surface treatmenttechniquen such as untreatment ultrasonic treatment and plasma treatment, and their electrical and mechanical characteristics have been compared each other. It has been found that plasma-treated glass has the smallest contact angle with a drop of epoxy. The plasma-treated composite materials have superior dielectric strength and mechanical tensile-strength compared to the materials subjected to other surface treatments. Also, the experiment showed that there exists an optimum plasma treatment duration for improving the interfacial characteristics of the composite insulating materials. The optimum plasma treatment durations are about 3 minutes for Glass-cloth/Epoxy at 80[℃]. Longer plasma treatment has been appeared to degrade the interfacial characteristics.
