Abstract
Polyurethane nanocomposites with inorganic nano fillers for the improvement thermal stability were prepared by the urethane reaction. Fire retardation properties of polyurethane nanocomposites were investigated by cone calorimeter and limited oxygen index (LOI). Maximum heat release rate of MMT-PU and Bi2O3-PU polyurethane nanocomposites were decreased as 50% than polyurethane matrix and fire retardation properties of MMT/Bi2O3-PU nanocomposte had the best improvement. The LOI of polyurethane nanocomposites also were improved as filling fillers in the nanocomposites over 20. The maximum heat release rates of MMT-PU, Bi2O3-PU and MMT/Bi2O3-PU polyurethane nanocomposites were 764, 707, 635 kW/m2, respectively and MMT/Bi2O3-PU polyurethane nanocomposite exhibited the highest value of fire-retardant. We confirmed that polyurethane nanocomposites improved the fire retardation properties.

본 연구에서는 무기계 나노 분말을 충전하여 난연성이 우수한 폴리우레탄 나노복합재료를 우레탄 반응에 의해 제조하였다. 또한 나노복합재료의 난연특성을 콘 칼로리미터 분석과 한계산소지수 시험으로 확인하였다. MMT-PU와 Bi2O3-PU 나노복합재료의 최대 열 방출속도는 모두 폴리우레탄 매트릭스보다 50% 감소하였으며, MMT/ Bi2O3-PU 복합재료의 난연 특성이 가장 우수하였다. 또한 한계산소지수도 충전제의 함량에 따라 감소하는 경향을 보였으며, 모두 20 이상이었다. 복합재료의 최대 열 방출속도는 폴리우레탄 매트릭스보다 모두 지연되었으며 최대 열 방출속도는 Bi2O3-PU, MMT-PU, MMT/Bi2O3-PU 순으로 각각 764, 707, 635 kW/m2 이었으며, MMT/Bi2O3-PU 복합재료의 난연성이 가장 우수하였다. 한편 폴리우레탄 나노복합재료의 연소시 충전제가 충전됨에 따라 CO2 생성량은 감소하였고 CO 생성량은 증가하였으며 이로부터 본 연구에서 제조한 복합재료의 난연성이 향상된 것을 확인하였다.
