Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of fire doors, in particular to a composite foam fire door and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] It is known that existing fire doors are mainly divided into two categories: wooden fire doors and metal fire doors. It is difficult to meet the requirements of the new standard GB12955-2024. This is because wooden fire doors are made of wood as the frame and covered with fireproof panels, which are flammable materials. Metal fire doors are exposed to high temperatures at the fire scene, which can cause welds to fall off, metal deformation, and burns. According to statistics, 82% of deaths in fires are caused by quality problems of fireproof materials and fire doors.

[0003] The traditional production process has the problem of unscientific selection of fireproof materials. Wooden fire doors are difficult to prevent fire due to the flammable nature of wood. They can only be made of wood as the inner frame, with fireproof materials filled in the middle and sealed on the outside. This adds many production processes and the labor of many skilled workers, including wood molding and processing, flame retardant liquid impregnation, secondary drying and drying. Traditional woodworking technology is used, with low output, many processes, high labor costs, and difficulty in standardized mass production and lightweight assembly.

[0004] The use of steel fire doors is equally unscientific. Not only is the cost high, but the steel's characteristics are strictly speaking not suitable for making fire doors. First, the steel welding points will produce higher temperatures under the high temperature of the fire and will break; second, the steel material will burn red in the fire, generating heat, increasing the hot temperature, and will burn the victims and rescuers. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a composite foam fire door and a manufacturing method thereof, which has the advantages of low cost, fireproofing and heat insulation, lightweight, and can realize standardized, batch and automated production.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: A composite foam fireproof door, comprising a door leaf and a door frame, characterized in that, in parts by weight, it comprises the following components: 30-45 parts of glue solution; 5-13 parts of wood fiber; 12-20 parts of phenolic resin; 1-3 parts of methyl silicone oil; 4 parts perlite foam particles; 2-3 parts of curing agent; 1-2 parts of silane coupling agent.

[0007] Preferably, it further comprises 8-10 parts of sepiolite fiber, 8-12 parts of silicon powder, 10-20 parts of magnesium oxide and 3-5 parts of sodium bicarbonate.

[0008] Preferably, it further comprises 8-10 parts of sepiolite fiber, 2-3 parts of oxalic acid and 6-8 parts of PVA.

[0009] Preferably, it also includes 2-3 parts of catalyst and 2-3 parts of foaming agent; Preferably, the adhesive solution is silica sol and polyvinyl alcohol. Silica sol has the characteristics of high temperature resistance of 1500-1600°C, high viscosity, and porosity. Functional materials can be added to implement reinforcement modification and toughening modification.

[0010] A method for manufacturing a composite foam fire door, characterized by the following steps: S1. First, the silica powder, sepiolite fiber, wood fiber, and coupling agent are fully stirred in a high-speed mixer according to the corresponding proportions. The stirring temperature is controlled within 90 degrees. S2, adding phenolic resin, PVA, perlite foam particles, oxalic acid and curing agent to the glue solution and mixing into a paste; S3, further blending and stirring the mixed materials of S1 and S2 by a horizontal rotary mixer; S4, then enter the vacuum clay mill for mixing and extrusion into a clay shape, and then use a three-axis vacuum clay mill to knead and extrude it into a molding mold for shaping, or use a double roller press to form it, and at the same time, press the high-temperature resistant asbestos fiber mesh or glass fiber silicone mesh into the mixed clay material and input it into a microwave drying channel for heating and drying; S5. The electromagnetic waves generated by the microwave drying tunnel cause the water molecules in the mixed glue material to vibrate at high speed, catalyze, foam, and cross-link during the friction and heat generation. After foaming, the material is sent to the graphene hot drying rack and drying room for low-temperature drying and solidification. After surface finishing, it is finally assembled into door leaves and door frames.

[0011] Preferably, the forming mold is a non-metal mold.

[0012] Preferred: non-metallic molds use phenolic molds; Preferably: in step S4, the microwave oven is used for high temperature drying and the temperature is controlled within 80-200 degrees. Preferably, in step S5, the low-temperature drying and curing temperature is controlled between 30-60° C. until absolutely dry.

[0013] Preferably, in step S5, phenolic foaming agent or perlite foam particles are used for foaming.

[0014] Beneficial effects: The composite foam material has a reduced specific gravity, ensuring that the fire door does not sag during use, the joints have great smoke resistance, and the toughness and high temperature resistance are enhanced, making the material strong, with a nail holding force similar to hardwood, and as light as paulownia wood. The fire resistance reaches over 1000 degrees, the material produces little smoke, is heat-insulating, self-extinguishing, and non-combustible. It also has waterproof and moisture-proof functions, and can be produced automatically to reduce labor costs. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
