Abstract

In this research, gel compounds containing thermochromic ingredients were manufactured and evaluated to prevent the transition hazards of fire and explosion, which they are one of the methods for detecting abnormal conditions caused by overheating of special materials early. And also, compounds of viscoelastic and brushing types were manufactured as the kind and content of raw materials, and manufacturing process to enlarge the application for overheat-detecting targets. Test methods were conducted as chromism test, viscosity profile, starting time of thermochromism, and FT-IR analysis. Thermochromic gel materials exhibit chromism properties that can detect abnormal conditions effectively, and then they are possible to various applications.

본 연구에서는 특정물질의 과열로 인한 이상 상태를 조기에 감지하여 화재 및 폭발로의 전이 위험성을 사전에 예방할 수 있는 방법 중 하나로 열변색 색소를 유효성분으로 한 겔성형체를 제조하여 그 특성을 평가하였다. 또한 과열감지용 대상물에 대한 적용성을 확대하기 위하여 성형체는 원료물질의 종류와 함량, 그리고 제조방법에 따라 점탄성형과 도포형의 2가지로 제조하였다. 변색성 시험, 점도 특성, 변색 개시시간, FT-IR 분석을 수행한 결과 이상 조건을 효과적으로 감지하여 변색 기능을 나타낼 수 있는 물질이 제조되어 다양한 응용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.
