초록/요약
Cycloaliphatic epoxy has been used as outdoor insulation material for high voltage to maintain good electrical performance and resistance to ultraviolet light. However, polluted atmosphere such as fine dust, acid rain collecting on insulator surfaces leads to surface abrasion, eventually destroying the insulator. Therefore, weather resistant properties are necessary. In this study, a series of microcomposites comprising of cycloaliphatic epoxy resin and modified microsilica fillers surface passivated with organosilane coupling agents were fabricated. Three different silanes, methyltrimethoxysilane(MTMS), glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane(GPS), and tridecafluoro-1,1,2,2-tetrahydrooctyl trimethoxysilane(FTEOS) were used and the amount of silane coupling agent were optimized for surface treatment of silica microparticles. The surface passivated silica particles were characterized by solid state 29Si NMR and XPS analysis. In rheological analysis, the value of complex viscosity was high in order of pre-cured mixture, FTEOS silianized silica mixture was higher than others. Mechanical properties were analyzed by flexural strength and SEM. Wettability of each specimen was measured using contact angle analysis. The neat epoxy’s contact angle was measured 101.4°, and those others composite’s contact angle increased with increase in filler contents. The FTEOS treated silica / epoxy composites exhibited higher contact angle (117.1°). Additionally, we treated O2 plasma etching in order to increase the surface roughness. As a result, prototype outdoor insulator maintains hydrophobicity and weather resistant property by salt spray test.
