Abstract
NDT (Non Destructive Test) of the adhesive joints is very important because their strengths have greatly affected by the worker's skill and environmental condition. Recently, the electric impedance method in which 1-2 wt% CNT was dispersed in the adhesive and the electric resistance of the adhesive joint was measured was suggested for the defect detection of the adhesive joint. The uniform dispersion of CNT in the electric impedance method is very important to make a constant electric resistance of the adhesive joint and the accuracy of defect detection depends on the uniform dispersion. In this paper, the adhesive joints in which CNT was dispersed in the adhesive by the four dispersion methods were made and their electric resistance were measured. The pre-process and evaporation process of CNT using the ultrasonic method and agitation method was used and the effective dispersion method was suggested. Also, the criteria to evaluate the dispersivity was proposed.

접착 조인트는 환경조건 및 작업자의 숙련도에 따라 접착강도가 크게 변화될 수 있으므로 이에 대한 비파괴 검사법은 매우 중요하다. 최근 접착제에 1-2 wt%의 CNT를 첨가하고 저항변화를 측정하여 접착 체결부의 내부 결함을 검출하는 전기저항법이 제시되었다. 전기저항법에서는 동일조건에서 접착조인트의 저항값이 일정하도록 하기 위하여 CNT의 균일한 분산이 매우 중요하며 이에 따라 결함 검출의 정확도가 좌우된다. 본 연구에서는 4가지 분산 방법으로 CNT를 접착제에 분산시켜 접착조인트을 제작하고 전기적 물리량을 측정하였다. 초음파를 이용한 CNT의 전처리 및 기화과정, 물리적 교반 방법등을 선정하여 효율적인 분산방법을 정립하고 분산성을 평가할 수 있는 척도를 제시하였으며 일반적인 분산 방법 대비 선정된 분산 방법을 적용했을 때 전기저항법의 결함 검출능을 비교하였다.
