초록
1:1로 몰 비가 조절된 glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane(GPTMS)과 methyl triethoxysilane(MTES)을 출발물질로 하여 sol-gel법에 의해 유-무기 혼성 용액을 제조하였다. 이 용액에 spiropyran계 광 변색 염료를 ethylacetate(EA)에 용해 시킨 용액을 혼합하여 광 변색 코팅 용액을 제조하였다. 그 후 기재인 polycarbonate 시트에 스핀 코팅 시키고 100 ℃ 에서 2 h 동안 열 경화 시켜 광 변색 코팅 막을 제조하였다. 코팅 막은 UV 광을 조사함에 의해 가역적인 색변화를 보여주었다. 이때 코팅 막의 소색속도는 코팅 용액 중의 EA의 첨가량이 증가됨에 따라 증가하였다.
Organic-inorganic hybrid solutions were prepared via sol-gel method using glycidoxypropyl trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) and methyl triethoxysilane (MTES) as starting precursors at a molar ratio of 1:1. The photochromic coating solutions were prepared by mixing the solutions of photochromic dye (spiropyran) dissolved in ethylacetate (EA) with the organic-inorganic hybrid solutions. Photochromic films were prepared on polycarbonate substrate by spin coating and cured for 2 h at 100 ℃. The resulting films exhibited a reversible color change upon irradiation with UV light. The photochromic properties of the films showed that the color-fading speed increases with increasing the EA content in the coating solutions.
