초록
다양한 전자부품에 활용되는 금속 잉크 기술은 전자부품산업의 주요 기술로 자리매김하였으며 이에 대한 연구 개발이 점차 증가하고 있다. 그 중에서 실버 잉크는 뛰어난 전도성과 안정성을 가지고 있어서 전자부품산업에 오랫동안 이용되어 왔으며 최근에는 입자 크기를 나노 크기로 분산시킨 실버 나노 잉크를 개발하여 디스플레이, 전자태그, 반도체와 연성회로 기판 등에 사용되는 전자소재로써 각광받고 있다. 그러나 이러한 전자산업기기의 첨단화는 제품의 생산량과 소비량을 증가시켜 제조 공정 중에 발생되는 환경오염 물질과 사용하고 버려지는 제품들에 의해 심각한 환경 문제를 가져올 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 습식환원법에 의해 제조된 실버나노 잉크의 제조 공정이 환경에 미치는 영향을 전과정평가(life cycle assessment, LCA) 기법을 이용하여 평가하였다. 전과정 평가 소프트웨어로는 GaBi 6를 사용하였고, 유관기관으로부터 받은 실버 나노 잉크의 제조 공정 데이터를 참고하여, 인벤토리를 구축하였으며 전과정목록분석(international organization for standardization, ISO) 14040, 14044 규격의 4단계에 걸쳐 LCA를 수행하였다.
Utilized in a variety of electronic components, electronic components industry with metallic ink technology was established itself as a major technology research and development was gradually increasing, silver ink that is excellent in conductivity and stability, have long been used in the industry of electronic components in recent years and silver ink has been the size of nanoscale particles dispersed by developing display, an electronic tag, a flexible circuit board or the like used in the semiconductor and electronics as has been highlighted in, however industry modernization of equipment by increasing the production and consumption of products generated during the production process and environmental pollutants by use of waste products is expected to bring a serious environmental problem. In this study, prepared by a wet reduction method, the manufacturing process of the silver nano-ink to the entire process of the environmental impact assessment (LCA) was evaluated using the techniques. Life cycle assessment software GaBi 6 was used as received from the relevant agencies of the silver nano-ink data with reference to the manufacturing process, building inventory was international organization for standardization (ISO) 14040, 14044 compliant LCA conducted over four stages.
