[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of building thermal insulation materials, in particular to a production process of a flame-retardant polystyrene foam board. Background Art

[0002] Styrene foam board, also known as polystyrene foam board or extruded polystyrene board, is a lightweight, porous insulation material with a closed honeycomb structure inside. It has excellent thermal insulation, moisture resistance, sound insulation and pressure resistance. At the same time, it has low density and is easy to construct. It is widely used in building wall insulation, roof insulation, cold storage projects and packaging cushioning.

[0003] In the prior art, since the polystyrene in the polystyrene foam board is a hydrocarbon, it is easy to melt, drip and burn when exposed to fire, and a large amount of toxic smoke with heat is released during the combustion process. Therefore, flame retardant components are added during the preparation process to improve the flame retardant properties of the foam board. However, when adding flame retardant components, the existing polystyrene foam board is simply a mixture of multiple raw materials, and can only use the flame retardant properties of the flame retardant for passive flame retardancy, and cannot form an effective heat-insulating flame retardant barrier at high temperatures. The flame retardant performance needs to be further improved.

[0028] 2. In the present invention, flame-retardant particles are introduced. The unique core-shell structure of the flame-retardant particles achieves the dual effects of heat insulation and flame retardancy. During combustion, the inner core promotes the decomposition of the outer layer material, releasing perfluorohexanone that quickly vaporizes, suppressing the fire by absorbing heat and cooling, and isolating oxygen. The zinc oxide nanoparticles generated by the decomposition of the outer shell form a carbon layer, which blocks heat and combustible gases, effectively ensuring the fire safety of the building. At the same time, the nano-scale flame-retardant particles are evenly dispersed inside the foam board, reducing the heat transfer path, which can enhance the thermal insulation effect, meet the demand of building exterior walls for high-efficiency and energy-saving insulation materials, and provide the construction industry with high-quality insulation materials that are both safe and practical.

[0085] S3: flame retardant polystyrene foam board is further processed.

[0086] The further processing method of the flame retardant polystyrene foam board comprises the following steps:

[0087] Step 1: Preparation: Punch holes on the surface of a flame-retardant polystyrene foam board with a hole diameter of 1 mm and a hole spacing of 10 mm to obtain a first foam board, which is set aside. Weigh KH-560, ethanol, and deionized water in a mass ratio of 1:15:5 to prepare a silane coupling agent solvent, which is set aside.

[0092] Comparative Example 1: The difference between this comparative example and Examples 1-3 is that the flame-retardant polystyrene foam board of this comparative example is not subjected to further treatment in the production process.

[0093] Comparative Example 2: The difference between this comparative example and Examples 1-3 is that no flame retardant particles are added in the production process of the flame retardant polystyrene foam board of this comparative example.

[0094] Comparative Example 3: The difference between this comparative example and Examples 1-3 is that: in the production process of the flame-retardant polystyrene foam board of this comparative example, no flame-retardant particles are added and the foam board is not further processed.

[0095] Thermal insulation performance test: According to GB / T10294-2008 standard, the thermal conductivity coefficient (unit: W / (m K), the lower the value, the stronger the thermal insulation;

[0096] Flame retardant performance test: According to the GB / T2408-2021 vertical combustion method, the combustion grade (UL94) and oxygen index (LOI, unit: %) are determined. The higher the grade and the larger the LOI value, the stronger the flame retardancy.

[0097] Performance test: The epoxy resin composite materials prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were subjected to performance tests, and the test data obtained are recorded in the following table:

[0098]

[0099] By analyzing the data in the comparison table, it can be seen that the thermal insulation performance and flame retardant performance of Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 3, which lack the further processing process of the foam board, are greatly reduced compared with Examples 1-3. It can be seen that during the further processing of the foam board, when the foam board is soaked for the first time after puncturing the foam board, the coupling agent molecules penetrate and diffuse through the capillary action of the foam board surface and the holes, and the organic group at one end thereof produces physical entanglement or weak chemical action with the polystyrene molecular chain on the surface of the foam board, and the siloxy group at the other end is hydrolyzed to form a silanol group, preparing for subsequent combination with other substances. After draining, the silane coupling agent is fully cured on the surface and in the holes of the foam board to form a firm adhesion layer, which enhances the bonding force between the subsequent substances and the foam board. With the second soaking treatment, the flame retardant particles are adsorbed on the foam surface and in the holes through the coupling agent layer. After draining, the ethanol evaporates and the flame retardant is solidified and adhered. During the third soaking treatment, perfluorohexanone fills the holes and flame retardant gaps through capillary action and coupling agent adsorption. With further drying, the ethanol substance Volatile, while perfluoroacetone will remain in a crystalline state and stably exist in the foam structure due to low temperatures, which makes the foam board form a reinforced structure of "surface anchoring-internal filling-multi-layer synergy". From the perspective of thermal insulation performance, the dense interface layer formed by the curing of the coupling agent effectively inhibits air convection and reduces the heat transfer channel, while the flame retardant particles and perfluorohexanone fill the pores, further hindering heat conduction and heat radiation, and reducing the thermal conductivity. In terms of flame retardant performance, the adhesion layer formed by the silane coupling agent firmly locks perfluorohexanone to prevent its volatilization and loss during storage, ensuring that sufficient inert gas can be released during combustion to dilute the oxygen concentration. At the same time, the flame retardant particles react rapidly at high temperatures to form an insulating carbon layer, which synergizes with the gas phase flame retardant effect of perfluorohexanone to significantly increase the flame retardant performance. This process not only significantly improves the functionality of the foam board, but also achieves a dual breakthrough in thermal insulation and flame retardant properties through molecular-level interface modification and material composite, greatly improving the thermal insulation and flame retardant properties of traditional polystyrene foam boards and ensuring building safety.

[0100] Secondly, by analyzing the data in the comparison table, it can be seen that the thermal insulation performance and flame retardant performance of Comparative Examples 2 and 3, which lack flame retardant particles, are significantly reduced compared with Examples 1-3. It can be seen that flame retardant particles play a core role in improving the performance of the foam board. This is because, during the preparation process, the flame retardant particles are composed of a ferroferric oxide core and a porous frame material shell loaded with perfluorohexanone. The ferroferric oxide core can promote the decomposition of the outer porous frame material in the early stage of combustion of the foam board, thereby promoting the rapid release of the loaded perfluorohexanone. Perfluorohexanone has a low boiling point and is rapidly vaporized when heated. On the one hand, it reduces the ambient temperature by absorbing a large amount of heat. On the other hand, the released gas can isolate oxygen and interrupt the combustion chain reaction. At the same time, the zinc oxide nanoparticles produced by the decomposition of the porous frame material shell can catalyze the formation of a dense carbon layer on the surface of the material, like a solid protective shield, effectively blocking heat transfer and combustible gas escape, thereby improving the flame retardant properties of the foam board. At the same time, the flame retardant particles are dispersed inside the foam board, which can effectively reduce heat transfer, thereby reducing the thermal conductivity of the material, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of the foam board.
