Abstract

This study uses Diglycidyl ether of terephthalylidene-bis-(4-amino-3-methylphenol) (DGETAM), an amine hardener 4,4’-diaminodiphenylethane (DDE) and cationic catalyst N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate (BPH) to make epoxy film. For analysis, 1H_NMR and FT-IR were used to verify proper synthesis, and the liquid crystallinity of DGETAM was checked using Differntial Scanning Calorimetry and Polarized Optical Microscopy. Thermal conductivity of the sample was measured using Laser Flash Apparatus. Thermal stability as well as thermal conductivity is important when used as a packaging material. Activated energy is the energy needed to generate a response, which can be used to estimate the energy required to maintain physical properties. It was obtained using the Arrhenius equation based on the data measured by isothermal decomposition using Thermogravimetric Analysis. Measurement of the thermal conductivity of epoxy films showed higher thermal conductivity when DDE was used, and it was found that thermal conductivity had an effect on thermal stability, given that it represented an activation energy similar to a film with BPH upon 5% decomposition


본 연구에서 액정성 에폭시인 Diglycidyl ether of terephthalylidene-bis-(4-amino-3-methylphenol) (DGETAM)을 사용해 경화제로는 아민계 경화제인 4,4’-diaminodiphenylethane (DDE)와 양이온 개시제인 N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate (BPH)를 사용하여 필름의 형태로 샘플을 제작하였다. 합성의 확인을 위하여 1H-NMR과 FT-IR을 사용하였고, DSC와 POM을 이용하여 DGETAM의 액정성을 확인하고, LFA를 사용하여 샘플의 열전도도를 측정하였다. 활성화 에너지는 TGA를 사용하여 등온 열분해를 진행해 측정한 데이터를 토대로 Arrhenius 식을 사용하여 구하였다. 에폭시 필름의 열전도도를 측정한 결과 DDE를 사용하였을 때, 더 높은 열전도도를 나타내었고, 5% 분해시 BPH를 사용한 필름과 유사한 활성화 에너지를 나타내는 것으로 보아, 열전도도가 열적 안정성에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인할 수 있었다
