Summary of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0004] All of Patent Documents 1 to 3 propose methods for dealing with a fire after a certain period of time has passed. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of minimizing the damage caused by a fire, it is desirable to perform some fire extinguishing operation, that is, initial fire extinguishing, at a stage shortly after ignition. Therefore, for example, a method of pre-existing a fire extinguishing material containing a fire extinguishing agent component (organic salt or inorganic salt) disclosed in the prior art near an object that may catch fire can be considered. By doing so, it is expected that the fire extinguishing will be completed by the fire extinguishing material before a person perceives that the object has caught fire.
[0005] Incidentally, by mixing the fire extinguishing agent components with a binder and processing them into an appropriate shape, a solid fire extinguishing material suitable for the above purpose can be obtained. However, such fire extinguishing materials have room for further improvement in terms of the stability of the properties of the fire extinguishing agent components.
[0006] This invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and aims to provide a fire extinguishing material with excellent stability of properties. Furthermore, this invention aims to provide a fire extinguishing material package containing the said fire extinguishing material. [Means for solving the problem]
[0007] One aspect of the present invention provides a fire extinguishing material comprising a fire extinguishing agent layer containing a fire extinguishing agent and a binder resin, wherein the fire extinguishing agent contains at least one of a deliquescent organic salt and an inorganic salt, and the 60-degree gloss on the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer is 2.7 or higher. Such fire extinguishing materials exhibit excellent stability in the properties of the extinguishing agent, allowing for effective initial fire suppression even after a period of time has passed. The inventors surmise that this is because increasing the glossiness of the surface of the extinguishing agent layer (i.e., reducing its roughness) reduces the contact area between the extinguishing agent and the atmosphere, thereby suppressing the deterioration of the extinguishing agent.
[0008] In one embodiment, the fire extinguishing agent layer may contain 70 to 97% by mass of the fire extinguishing agent, based on the total amount of the fire extinguishing agent and binder resin.
[0009] In one embodiment, the salt may contain a potassium salt.
[0010] In one embodiment, the average particle size D50 of the salt may be 1 to 100 μm.
[0011] In one embodiment, the binder resin may contain a polyvinyl acetal resin.
[0012] In one embodiment, the thickness of the fire extinguishing agent layer may be 80 to 600 μm.
[0013] In one aspect, the fire extinguishing material may further include a resin base material on which a fire extinguishing agent layer is disposed.
[0014] One aspect of the present invention provides a fire extinguishing material package including the above fire extinguishing material and a packaging bag for enclosing the fire extinguishing material.
Effects of the Invention
[0015] According to the present invention, a fire extinguishing material excellent in the property stability of the fire extinguishing agent can be provided. Further, according to the present invention, a fire extinguishing material package enclosing the fire extinguishing material can be provided.
Brief Description of the Drawings
[0016] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a fire extinguishing material according to an embodiment.
Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention
[0017] Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0018] <Fire Extinguishing Material> FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a fire extinguishing material according to an embodiment. The fire extinguishing material 10 includes a fire extinguishing agent layer 1 and a resin base material 2 on which the fire extinguishing agent layer 1 is disposed. It can be said that the fire extinguishing material 10 includes a resin base material 2 and a fire extinguishing agent layer 1 disposed on the resin base material 2.
[0019] From the viewpoint of installing the fire extinguishing material at a desired position, the fire extinguishing material may further include an adhesive layer or an adhesive layer. The adhesive layer or the adhesive layer may be provided on the fire extinguishing agent layer side or on the resin base material side.
[0020] (Fire Extinguishing Agent Layer) The fire extinguishing agent layer includes a fire extinguishing agent and a binder resin. As the fire extinguishing agent, those having the so-called four elements of fire extinguishing (removal action, cooling action, asphyxiation action, negative catalyst action) can be appropriately used according to the fire extinguishing target. The fire extinguishing agent generally contains at least one of salts of organic salts and inorganic salts having deliquescence and having fire extinguishing performance.
[0021] Examples of the organic salts functioning as the fire extinguishing agent include potassium salts, sodium salts, ammonium salts, etc. From the viewpoint of the usefulness for the negative catalyst effect, potassium salts can be preferably used as the organic salts. As the organic potassium salts, carboxylic acid potassium salts such as potassium acetate, potassium citrate (tripotassium citrate), potassium tartrate, potassium lactate, potassium oxalate, potassium maleate, etc. can be mentioned. Among these, potassium citrate can be used especially from the viewpoint of the reaction efficiency of the negative catalyst effect of combustion.
[0022] Examples of the inorganic salts functioning as the fire extinguishing agent include potassium salts, sodium salts, etc. From the viewpoint of the usefulness for the negative catalyst effect, potassium salts can be preferably used as the inorganic salts. As the inorganic potassium salts, potassium tetraborate, potassium carbonate, potassium hydrogen carbonate, potassium dihydrogen phosphate, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, etc. can be mentioned. Among these, potassium hydrogen carbonate can be used especially from the viewpoint of the reaction efficiency of the negative catalyst effect of combustion.
[0023] The organic salts and inorganic salts may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.
[0024] The salt may be granular. The average particle diameter D50 of the salt can be 1 to 100 μm, and may also be 3 to 40 μm. When the average particle diameter D50 is not less than the above lower limit, it is easy to disperse in the coating liquid. When the average particle diameter D50 is not more than the above upper limit, the stability in the coating liquid is improved and the smoothness of the coating film tends to be improved, and it is easy to realize the desired glossiness on the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer. The average particle diameter D50 can be calculated by wet measurement using a laser diffraction type particle size distribution measuring device.
[0025] The amount of fire extinguishing agent can be 70-97% by mass, or 85-92% by mass, based on the total amount of fire extinguishing agent and binder resin (which may also be the total amount of the fire extinguishing agent layer). If the amount of fire extinguishing agent is below the above upper limit, it is easier to suppress deliquescence of salt and to form a uniform fire extinguishing material, and if the amount of fire extinguishing agent is above the above lower limit, it is easier to maintain sufficient fire extinguishing performance.
[0026] The fire extinguishing agent may contain other components besides the salts mentioned above. Examples of other components include oxidizing agents to improve the reactivity of the salts, specifically potassium chlorate, sodium chlorate, strontium chlorate, ammonium chlorate, magnesium chlorate, potassium nitrate, sodium nitrate, strontium nitrate, ammonium perchlorate, potassium perchlorate, basic copper nitrate, copper(I) oxide, copper(II) oxide, iron(II) oxide, iron(III) oxide, molybdenum trioxide, etc. Among these, potassium chlorate is preferred.
[0027] Other components include colorants, antioxidants, flame retardants, inorganic fillers, fluidity enhancers, moisture-proofing agents, dispersants, UV absorbers, flexibility enhancers, and catalysts.
[0028] These other components can be appropriately selected depending on the type of salt and the type of binder resin. The amount of other components contained in the fire extinguishing agent can be 40% by mass or less, 10% by mass or less, or 0% by mass, based on the total amount of the fire extinguishing agent.
[0029] The binder resin includes at least one of a thermoplastic resin and a thermosetting resin. Examples of thermoplastic resins include polyolefin resins such as polypropylene resins, polyethylene resins, poly(1-)butene resins, and polypentene resins, polystyrene resins, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene resins, methyl methacrylate-butadiene-styrene resins, ethylene-vinyl acetate resins, ethylene-propylene resins, polycarbonate resins, polyphenylene ether resins, acrylic resins, polyamide resins, polyvinyl chloride resins, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and polyvinyl acetal resins. Examples of thermosetting resins include natural rubber (NR), isoprene rubber (IR), butadiene rubber (BR), 1,2-polybutadiene rubber (1,2-BR), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), chloroprene rubber (CR), nitrile rubber (NBR), butyl rubber (IIR), ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR, EPDM), chlorosulfonated polyethylene (CSM), acrylic rubber (ACM, ANM), epichlorohydrin rubber (CO, ECO), polyvulcanized rubber (T), silicone rubber (Q), fluororubber (FKM, FZ), urethane rubber (U), and other types of rubber, as well as polyurethane resins, polyisocyanate resins, polyisocyanurate resins, phenolic resins, epoxy resins, polyvinyl ether (PMVE)-anhydrous malee resin, and the like.
[0030] Of the above resins, polyvinyl acetal resins can be suitably used from the viewpoint of film-forming properties. Examples of polyvinyl acetal resins include polyvinyl butyral (PVB).
[0031] The binder resin may contain other components besides the resins mentioned above (thermoplastic resins and thermosetting resins). Other components include curing agents, and from the standpoint of property stability, surfactants, silane coupling agents, and antiblocking agents are also used.
[0032] These other components can be appropriately selected depending on the type of resin. The amount of other components contained in the binder resin can be 70% by mass or less, 30% by mass or less, or 0% by mass, based on the total amount of the binder resin.
[0033] The thickness of the fire extinguishing agent layer can be 80 to 600 μm, or 150 to 300 μm. A thickness above the lower limit makes it easier to exhibit fire extinguishing performance, while a thickness below the upper limit makes it easier to form a coating film and provides good flexibility.
[0034] The area of the main surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer is not particularly limited, as it is adjusted according to its intended use, but it should be set to be sufficiently large compared to the area of the sides. The area of the main surface can range from, for example, 10 to 624 cm². 2 It can be done this way.
[0035] The 60-degree gloss on the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer is 2.7 or higher, but may be 2.8 or higher, 2.9 or higher, 2.95 or higher, or 3.0 or higher. A 60-degree gloss of 2.7 or higher means that the surface roughness of the fire extinguishing agent layer is suppressed, reducing the contact area between the fire extinguishing agent and the atmosphere. This suppresses the deterioration of the fire extinguishing agent layer mainly due to deliquescence of the fire extinguishing agent, meaning that initial fire extinguishing can be carried out appropriately even after time has passed. There is no particular upper limit to the 60-degree gloss, but it may be 30 or less from the viewpoint of ease of film transport.
[0036] The 60-degree gloss value is measured in accordance with JIS Z8741. The gloss value is measured on the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer using a gloss meter (product name: RHOPOINT IQ, manufactured by RHOPOINTS). The gloss value is measured at three different points on the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer, and the average of these measurements is taken as the gloss value of the fire extinguishing agent layer.
[0037] The surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer is the main surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer (also called the surface perpendicular to the layering direction of the fire extinguishing agent layer). Deliquescence of the fire extinguishing agent gradually progresses from the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer exposed to the atmosphere. This deliquescence progresses more easily from the main surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer, which has a larger contact surface with the atmosphere, compared to the sides of the fire extinguishing agent layer, which has a smaller contact surface with the atmosphere. Therefore, by appropriately controlling the glossiness of the main surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer, it is possible to suppress deliquescence of the fire extinguishing agent and obtain a fire extinguishing material with excellent property stability.
[0038] When a fire extinguishing material comprises a fire extinguishing agent layer alone, and the fire extinguishing agent layer has a first surface (front surface) and a second surface (back surface), the 60-degree gloss of the first surface and the second surface should be 2.7 or higher. If the fire extinguishing material comprises a resin substrate and a fire extinguishing agent layer disposed on the resin substrate, it is preferable that the 60-degree gloss of at least the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer opposite the resin substrate be 2.7 or higher. The surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer on the resin substrate side is protected by the resin substrate (it is not exposed to the atmosphere), but it is preferable that the 60-degree gloss of the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer on the resin substrate side is also 2.7 or higher.
[0039] (Resin base material) Examples of resins that make up the resin substrate include polyolefins (LLDPE, PP, COP, CPP, etc.), polyesters (PET, etc.), fluororesins (PTFE, ETFE, EFEP, PFA, FEP, PCTFE, etc.), PVC, PVA, acrylic resins, epoxy resins, polyamides, and polyimides. Even if the fire extinguishing material is installed so that the resin substrate faces the flame, these resins will melt due to the heat of the flame (generally around 700-900°C), making it easy to expose the fire extinguishing agent layer. Furthermore, by selecting these transparent materials, it becomes easier to inspect the appearance of the fire extinguishing agent layer and to confirm when it is time to replace the fire extinguishing agent layer. The resin substrate may contain the above-mentioned fire extinguishing agents.
[0040] From the viewpoint of adjusting the water vapor permeability, the resin substrate may be provided with a vapor-deposited layer (alumina vapor-deposited layer or silica vapor-deposited layer) that has water vapor barrier properties. The vapor-deposited layer may be provided on one surface of the resin substrate or on both surfaces.
[0041] The thickness of the resin substrate can be adjusted as appropriate according to the expected heat output during a fire, the impact, and the allowable installation space. For example, a thicker substrate makes it easier to obtain the strength and rigidity required for fire extinguishing material, and facilitates handling. Conversely, a thinner substrate allows the fire extinguishing material to be installed in a narrow space, and because it melts quickly when heated by flames, initial fire extinguishing performance is improved. The thickness of the resin substrate can be, for example, 4.5 to 100 μm, or 12 to 50 μm. The resin substrate may also be a laminate comprising multiple layers of resin.
[0042] <Method of manufacturing fire extinguishing materials> The fire extinguishing material can be formed using a composition for forming a fire extinguishing agent layer. The composition for forming a fire extinguishing agent layer includes a fire extinguishing agent, a binder resin, and a liquid medium. A method for manufacturing the fire extinguishing material is exemplified below.
[0043] A composition for forming a fire extinguishing agent layer is prepared by mixing a fire extinguishing agent and a binder resin with a liquid medium. Examples of liquid mediums include organic solvents. Examples of organic solvents include water-soluble solvents such as alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, and n-propyl alcohol; ketones such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone; glycols such as ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol; and glycol ethers such as N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), tetrahydrofuran, and butyl cellosolve. From the viewpoint that the organic and inorganic salts are hygroscopic, the liquid medium may be an alcohol-based solvent, and specifically ethanol.
[0044] The amounts of the fire extinguishing agent and binder resin should be adjusted so that their amounts in the fire extinguishing agent layer are the desired amounts described above. The amount of the liquid medium should be adjusted appropriately depending on the method of use of the fire extinguishing agent layer forming composition, but it can be 30 to 70% by mass based on the total amount of the fire extinguishing agent layer forming composition. The fire extinguishing agent layer forming composition containing the liquid medium can be called a fire extinguishing agent layer forming coating liquid.
[0045] Fire extinguishing materials can be manufactured by applying a coating liquid for forming a fire extinguishing layer onto a resin substrate and drying it to form the fire extinguishing layer. As mentioned above, it is necessary to appropriately control the gloss level of the surface of the fire extinguishing layer exposed to the atmosphere. However, by forming the fire extinguishing layer using a coating method, it is easy to achieve an appropriate gloss level on both the front and back surfaces of the fire extinguishing layer. This is an advantage unique to the coating method, which does not involve strong external pressure during layer formation, and is presumably difficult to obtain with molding methods such as press molding.
[0046] The coating thickness should be adjusted as appropriate, taking into account the pressurization of the fire extinguishing agent layer, to obtain a fire extinguishing agent layer of the desired thickness. The fire extinguishing agent layer may be peeled off from the resin substrate and used as a fire extinguishing material, in which case it is preferable that a release treatment is applied to the resin substrate.
[0047] The coating can be applied using a wet coating method. Examples of wet coating methods include gravure coating, comma coating, dip coating, curtain coating, spin coating, sponge roll coating, and die coating.
[0048] The method for manufacturing the fire extinguishing material may further include pressurizing the fire extinguishing agent layer. This makes it easier to improve the gloss level. From the viewpoint of easily obtaining the desired gloss level, the pressurization condition can be 0.2 MPa or higher, and may also be 2.0 MPa or higher. The upper limit of the pressurization condition can be 2.5 MPa or lower from the viewpoint of the flexibility of the coating film.
[0049] <Fire extinguishing material package> The fire extinguishing material package comprises the fire extinguishing material described above and a packaging bag for sealing the fire extinguishing material. Sealing the fire extinguishing material in a packaging bag can further improve the stability of the properties of the fire extinguishing agent layer, making it easier to maintain the excellent fire extinguishing performance of the fire extinguishing material. The fire extinguishing material may also be sealed in the packaging bag under reduced pressure.
[0050] The packaging bag can be formed, for example, by heat-sealing the four sides of two resin films. Examples of resins that make up the resin film include polyolefins (LLDPE, PP, COP, CPP, etc.), polyesters (PET, etc.), fluororesins (PTFE, ETFE, EFEP, PFA, FEP, PCTFE, etc.), PVC, PVA, acrylic resins, epoxy resins, polyamides, and polyimides. These resins melt when exposed to the heat of a flame (generally around 700-900°C), making it easy to expose the fire extinguishing material inside. Furthermore, by selecting these transparent materials, it becomes easier to visually inspect the fire extinguishing material and to check when it needs to be replaced. The resin film may contain the above-mentioned fire extinguishing agent.
[0051] The water vapor permeability of the resin film (according to JIS K 7129, under 40°C / 90%RH conditions) is not particularly limited as it can be designed according to the type of fire extinguishing agent, but 10.0 g / (m 2 It can be less than or equal to 1.0g / (m 2 It may be less than or equal to (day).
[0052] From the viewpoint of adjusting the water vapor permeability, the resin film may be provided with a vapor-deposited layer (alumina vapor-deposited layer or silica vapor-deposited layer) that has water vapor barrier properties. The vapor-deposited layer may be provided on one surface of the resin film or on both surfaces.
[0053] Fire extinguishing materials and fire extinguishing material packages can be installed on or near objects that may ignite. Installation methods include attaching, placing, and including in packages. Examples of objects that may ignite include electrical wires, distribution boards, switchboards, control panels, storage batteries (lithium-ion batteries, etc.), building materials such as wallpaper and ceiling materials, lithium-ion battery collection boxes, trash cans, automotive-related parts, electrical outlets, and outlet covers. For example, in a device equipped with fire extinguishing material or a fire extinguishing material package, initial fire suppression is performed automatically in the event of ignition in the device. Therefore, such a device can be described as having an automatic fire suppression function.

[Examples]
[0055] The present invention will be described in more detail by the following examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.
[0056] (Example 1) Potassium chlorate (KClO3) and tripotassium citrate were ground in an agate mortar until the average particle size D50 was 12 μm or less. Tripotassium citrate is a hygroscopic salt. 87 parts by mass of this mixture were prepared and added to a liquid medium containing 148 parts by mass of ethanol and 7 parts by mass of isopropyl alcohol, along with 9 parts by mass of polyvinyl butyral resin (manufactured by Dainichi Seika Kogyo Co., Ltd.) and 4 parts by mass of silane coupling agent (X-12-1287A, manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.), and mixed to prepare a fire extinguishing agent layer-forming composition.
[0057] A fire extinguishing agent layer-forming composition was applied to one side of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate (product name: E7002, manufactured by Toyobo Co., Ltd., thickness 50 μm) using an applicator so that the fire extinguishing agent layer thickness after drying would be 150 μm, and the material was dried at 75°C for 7 minutes to form a fire extinguishing agent.
[0058] (Example 2) A fire extinguishing material was prepared by pressing a metal plate against the fire extinguishing agent layer of the fire extinguishing material obtained in Example 1 under a pressure of 0.4 MPa.
[0059] (Comparative Example 1) A fire extinguishing material was prepared by pressing a nylon mesh (mesh size 85 μm) onto the fire extinguishing agent layer of the fire extinguishing material obtained in Example 1 under a pressure of 0.4 MPa.
[0060] (Comparative Example 2) A fire extinguishing material was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1, except that acrylic resin was used instead of polyvinyl butyral resin. A nylon mesh (mesh size 250 μm) was pressed against the fire extinguishing agent layer of this fire extinguishing material under a pressure of 0.4 MPa to produce a fire extinguishing material.
[0061] (Comparative Example 3) A fire extinguishing material was prepared by pressing a nylon mesh (mesh size 250 μm) onto the fire extinguishing agent layer of the fire extinguishing material obtained in Example 1 under a pressure of 0.4 MPa.
[0062] (Comparative Example 4) A fire extinguishing material was prepared by pressing a nylon mesh (mesh size 250 μm) onto the fire extinguishing agent layer of the fire extinguishing material obtained in Example 1 under a pressure of 2.0 MPa.
[0063] (Comparative Example 5) A fire extinguishing material was formed by spraying the fire extinguishing layer-forming composition prepared in Example 1 onto one side of a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate (product name: S10, manufactured by Toray Industries, Inc.) so that the fire extinguishing layer thickness after drying would be 150 μm, and then drying it at 75°C for 7 minutes.
[0064] <Various evaluations> The fire extinguishing materials obtained in each case were evaluated as follows. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0065] (Measurement of glossiness at 60 degrees) The 60-degree gloss of the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer (the surface opposite to the PET substrate) of the fire extinguishing materials obtained in each example was measured using a gloss meter (product name: RHOPOINT IQ, manufactured by RHOPOINTS) in accordance with JIS Z8741. The gloss was measured at three different points on the surface of the fire extinguishing agent layer, and the average of these measurements was taken as the gloss of the fire extinguishing agent layer.
[0066] (Properties and stability of fire extinguishing agents) A barrier film comprising a sealant layer (L-LDPE (linear low-density polyethylene) resin, 30 μm thick) and a base layer (PET (polyethylene terephthalate) resin with a silica vapor deposition layer, 12 μm thick) (water vapor transmission rate 0.2~0.6 g / (m²) 2 A barrier film was prepared (under JIS K 7129 conditions of 40°C / 90%RH). Two of these barrier films were used to cover the fire extinguishing material (50mm x 50mm) obtained in each example, and the fire extinguishing material was sealed by heat sealing all four sides of the barrier film. The heat sealing conditions were 140°C for 2 seconds. This was used as the evaluation sample.
[0067] The evaluation samples were stored at 85°C / 85%RH for 10 hours, and the rate of change in total light transmittance was calculated from the total light transmittance of the fire extinguishing material before and after storage. A haze meter, BYK-Gardner Haze-Guard Plus (manufactured by BYK), was used to measure the total light transmittance. The measurement was performed with the fire extinguishing material fixed in place so that light entering the integrating sphere from the light source would pass through the fire extinguishing material. Change in total light transmittance (%) = (Total light transmittance after storage - Total light transmittance before storage) / Total light transmittance before storage × 100 -Evaluation Criteria- A: The change in total light transmittance was less than 30%. B: The change rate of total light transmittance was 30-50%. C: The change rate of total light transmittance was over 50%.
