Polyurethane (PU) foams were
prepared according to the experimental plan of central composite design (CCD). Liquefied
polyol was prepared by lignocellulosic liquefaction of biomass (saw dust, Larix
kaempferi) under the optimal liquefaction condition suggested by Lee et
al. The density, cream time, rise time and compressive strength of the PU
foams prepared in this study were applied as dependent variables of process
condition for the PU foam-preparation, and were measured. The distribution of
the density and the compressive strength of the PU foams prepared in this study
were turned out to be nearly consistent with those of PU foam, respectively,
reported by Xu et al. and Alma et al. The correlation of their
dependent variables with three independent process variables such as mixing
time, the ratio of liquefied polyol to polyethylene glycol, and the amount of
added distilled water, was regressively analyzed by response surface methodology.
In addition, the proper condition for the preparation of the PU foams was
suggested according to the degree of development and the status of cells of the
PU foams prepared in this study, observed by SEM.
폴리우레탄(PU) 폼
제조를 위한 central composite design(CCD) 실험계획에 따라서 PU 폼을 제조하였다. 액화폴리올은 리그노셀루로식 폴리올로서 Lee 등에 의하여 도출된 리그노셀루로식 액화실험의 최적화 액화조건에 따른 바이오매스(saw dust, Larix kaempferi) 액화에 의해 제조된 바이오폴리올을 사용하였다. CCD 실험계획에 따른 각각의 실험조건에서 제조된 PU 폼의 밀도, cream time, rise time 및 압축강도를 PU 폼 제조의
종속변수로서 각각 측정하였다. 본 연구에서 CCD의 실험설계에
따라서 제조된 PU 폼의 밀도 및 압축강도에 대한 분포는 Xu 등과 Alma 등이 보고한 값과 거의 일치하였다. 이러한 PU 폼 제조의 종속변수에 대한 세 개의 공정변수(교반시간, 액화폴리올 대 폴리에틸렌 글리콜의 비 및 부가된 증류수의 양)의
상관관계에 대한 회귀분석을 반응표면분석법으로 분석하였다. 또한 SEM으로
관찰된 셀 발달 정도와 셀 상태로부터 PU 폼 제조의 최적조건을 도출하였다
