Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the characterization of aerogel made by holocellulose, the thermal properties of the aerogel, and its shapes and porous structures. The aerogel was made by holocellulose through the gelation in alkali hydroxide-urea solution and freeze drying processes. Holocellulose aerogel had porous structure such as net or sponge. The density of holocellulose aerogel was 0.04 g/$cm^3$, and the specific surface area 145.3 $m^2$/g. Although thermal degradation occurred in the range of $210{\sim}350^{\circ}C$, significant thermal degradation occurred at low temperature with low heating rate, Micropore volume was sharply increased with low heating rate. Holocellulose aerogel char obtained by carbonization with $900^{\circ}C$ and $0.5^{\circ}C$/min. heating rate had the highest surface area, 656.7 $m^2$/g. The deformed and irregular structures of holocellulose aerogel chars due to the thermal degradation were observed in SEM.

본 연구는 홀로셀룰로오스를 이용하여 제조한 에어로겔과 에어로겔의 열적특성 및 다공성에 대해서 검토하였다. 홀로셀룰로오스는 alkali hydroxide-urea 용액으로 용해 및 겔화시켜 동결건조로 에어로겔을 제조하였다. 홀로셀룰로오스 에어로겔은 그물모양 또는 스폰지와 같은 다공성구조로 이루어졌다. 밀도는 0.04g/$cm^3$이었고, 비표면적은 145.3 $m^2$/g이었다. 에어로겔의 열분해는 $210{\sim}350^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 일어났으나,저속의 승온조건일수록 열분해가 보다 낮은 온도에서 일어났다. 홀로셀룰로오스 에어로겔은 승온조건이 저속일수록 micro pore체적이 증가하였다. 홀로셀룰로오스 에어로겔 탄화물의 비표면적은$0.5^{\circ}C$/min의 승온조건이 656.7 $m^2$/g로 가장 높았다. 탄화물들은 에어로겔의 구조가 열에 의해 섬유의 배열이 변형되어 불규칙적 구조로 변화된 것이 주사전자현미경에 의해 관찰되었다.
