Abstract
Maleic anhydride (MAH) grafted polypropylenes (PP) (MAH-g-PP) were prepared by changing MAH content and styrene monomer (SM)/MAH mole ratio with different type PP, using a twin screw extruder. The types of PP were isotatic PP (iPP), block PP (bPP), and random PP (rPP) and dicumyl peroxide (DCP) was used as an initiator. The graft degree of MAH was confirmed by the existence of carbonyl group (C=O) stretching peak at 3100 cm-1 of FTIR spectrum. Thermal properties of MAH-g-PP and PP/MAH-g-PP/pulp composites were investigated by DSC and TGA. There was no district change in thermal properties of PP/MAH-g-PP/pulp composites. Based on tensile properties and SEM pictures for fractured surface of PP/MAH-g-PP/pulp composites, MAH-g-rPP was the best as the compatibilizer and optimum formulation was MAH content of 1.0 wt%, SM/MAH mole ratio of 1.0, and melt index (MI) of 25 g/10 min. The heological properties of the composites were investigated by a dynamic rheometer. The complex viscosity, shear thinning effect, and water uptake incresed with pulp content.

이축압출기(twin screw extruder)를 이용하여 폴리프로필렌(polypropylene, PP)의 종류에 따라 말레인산 무수물(maleic anhydride, MAH) 함량과 스티렌(SM)/MAH 몰비를 변화시키며 MAH가 그래프트된 PP(MAH-g-PP)를 제조하였다. PP의 종류로는 이소탁틱(isotactic, iPP), 블록(block, bPP), 랜덤(random, rPP)에 대해 용융지수(melt index, MI)가 10 그리고 25 g/10 min이 사용되었고, 개시제로는 dicumyl peroxide(DCP)가 사용되었다. MAH의 그래프트 정도는 FTIR을 이용하여 1700 cm-1 근처에서 나타나는 카르보닐기(C=O) 신축진동 피이크의 존재 여부를 통해 확인하였다. 또한 PP/MAH-g-PP/pulp 복합체의 열적특성을 시차주사열용량분석기(DSC)와 열중량분석기(TGA)를 이용하여 관찰하였다. 복합체의 열적특성에는 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 복합체의 인장특성과 인장시험 후 파단면의 SEM을 측정한 결과, MAH-g-rPP를 상용화제로 적용한 경우 인장특성 개선효과가 가장 우수하였다. MAH 함량 1.0 wt%, SM/MAH 몰비 1.0, MI = 25 g/10 m인 경우가 최적으로 평가되었다. 복합체의 유변학적 특성은 동적유변측정기를 이용하여 측정하였고, 복소 점도와 전단박하 그리고 함수량의 경우 펄프의 함량에 따라 증가하였다.
