자가치료용 마이크로캡슐의 열적 안정성 연구

Thermal Stability of Autonomic Microcapsules with Healing Agent

This study dealt with autonomic microcapsules with the healing agent for damage repair of the composite structures. Autonomic microcapsules were made of a urea-formaldehyde resin for shell of microcapsule and a DCPD for the healing agent. Thermal analysis was conducted by using a DSC and a TGA for the healing agent, microcapsules without the healing agent, and microcapsules with the healing agent. According to the results, autonomic microcapsules were verified to be so thermally stable that the healing agent was kept inside the microcapsule until the shell of microcapsules were burned out.
