논문초록 Carbon Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic (CFRTP) has emerged as a promising material in the automotive industry, offering lightweight properties that enhance fuel efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. Polyamide 6-based CFRTP stands out for its remarkable impact resistance and recyclability. However, the hydrophilic nature of polyamide 6 results in water absorption, which disrupts intermolecular hydrogen bonding and acts as a plasticizer. This research aims to alleviate the water absorption of polyamide 6 by applying a fluorinated polydopamine coating onto CFRTP fabricated via the thermoplastic resin transfer molding process. The surface morphology and composition of the coating were analyzed using AFM, SEM, XPS, and EDS. The CFRTP exhibited a significant improvement in water resistance and anti-icing performance with low surface energy. These findings suggest potential applications across various industries operating in humid conditions.
