Abstract

The flash points of DMF based organic solvent mixtures used in the synthetic leather manufacturing process were measured. The test group was composed of seven types of solvent mixtures, which included DMF, toluene, and MEK. Each flash point was tested according to the international standard test methods of KS M 2010. The flash points were then predicted using some prediction models and compared with the measured data. From the analysis results, the binary mixtures with a mole ratio of less than approximately 0.7 showed that the measured values were under 25 ℃. This showed that the expectation for the flammable risk lowering effects due to the mixing of high flash point materials was reduced. In addition, the predicted values were evaluated using the average absolute deviation (A.A.D). The results showed that the Le Chatelier's models had an "A.A.D" of 1.95 ℃ and were the closest to the measured values.

본 연구에서는 합성피혁 제조 공정에서 주로 사용되는 혼합 유기용제 중에서 디메틸포름아마이드(Dimethylformamide, DMF)를 기준물질로 톨루엔과 메틸에틸케톤 등이 혼합된 2성분 및 3성분 혼합물질 7종류에 대하여 국제적으로 표준화된 시험방법을 이용하여 인화점을 측정하였다. 그리고 몇 가지 예측모델을 이용하여 인화점을 예측하고 실험결과와 비교하였다. 그 결과, 2성분 혼합물에서 DMF 몰분율이 약 0.7 이하인 경우는 혼합물의 인화점이 25 ℃이하로 관측되어, 고인화점 물질의 혼합에 의한 인화점상승에 대한 효과가 작은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 평균온도차이를 이용하여 각 모델별 예측값을 평가한 결과, 르샤틀리에 모델의 경우가 1.95 ℃로 측정값에 가장 근사한 것으로 나타났다.
