Abstract

In order to overcome the problems of increasing weight of composites and difficulty of orientation of the fillers in the matrix when plastic matrices and metal fillers were used for electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials, a new simple and effective method was developed to produce EMI shielding composites in which electroconductive (ec-) fiber fillers were oriented to machine direction by using of melt-pressing mixed fiber slivers composed of meltable polypropylene (PP) fibers and non meltable ec-acrylic fibers. Ec-acrylic fiber/PP composite films with various contents of ecacrylic fiber were prepared from the mixed fiber slivers, and their mechanical and surface properties, resistivity, and electromagnetic shielding efficiency (EMSE) were analyzed. Results showed that ec-acrylic fibers were present parallel to machine direction in the composites and that an excellent EMSE of 30 dB at 1 GHz was obtained when composite films of 1.6 mm thickness with a 20 wt% ec-acrylic fiber content was used.


플라스틱과 금속을 사용하는 기존 전자파 차폐용 복합소재 제조 시의 무게 증가와 충전재의 배향성을 높이기 어려운 문제점을 해결하기 위하여, 융점이 낮으면서 기계적 성질이 우수한 폴리프로필렌(PP) 섬유와 용융되지 않는 도전성(ec) 아크릴 섬유를 혼합한 혼섬 슬라이버를 제조한 후 이를 용융압착함으로써 간단하면서도 효율적으로 도전성 섬유가 매트릭스 내에 기계방향으로 배향된 전자파 차폐용 복합체를 제조하는 새로운 방법을 개발하였다. ec-아크릴 섬유와 PP 섬유의 혼합 비율을 달리한 혼섬 슬라이버를 준비하고 이로부터 ec-아크릴 섬유/PP 복합체 필름들을 제조한 후 이들의 물성, 표면특성, 전자파 차폐성 등을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, ec-아크릴 섬유는 복합체 내에서 기계 방향으로 배향되어 있으며, ec-아크릴 섬유의 함량을 20%로 하면서 복합필름의 두께를 1.6 mm 정도로 하면 1.0 GHz 영역에서 30 dB 이상의 우수한 전자파 차폐효율을 나타내었다.
