건축물 마감재료의 연소시 발생되는 독성가스는 대형화재로 인한 인명피해의 주된 원인 중의 하나이다. 현행 건축법에서는 건축물마감재료에 대하여 동물의 평균행동정지시간을 측정하는 가스유해성시험을 실시하고 있다. 본 연구는 동물시험이 아닌 NFPA 269에 의한 유효량분율(FED: Fractional effective does)을 이용하여 건축물 마감재의 독성지수를 도출하였다. 현행 가스유해성 평가 방법에서 사용되는 채임버(피검상자)를 이용하여 적외선분광분석 및 산소분석기로 연소가스를 정량 분석하였으며, NFPA269에서 규정하는 FED를 도출하였다. 몇 가지 건축재료에 대한 가스유해성시험의 평균행동정지시간과 FED의 상대적인 비교를 통해 연소가스독성평가를 수행하였다.

본 연구에서는 주택화재가 발생할 경우, 건축용 외장재로부터 발생하는 유해성 가스를 분석하고자 주택화재재연실험을 수행하였다. 실험 방법으로는 스티로폼, 우레탄폼, 글라스울 소재의 샌드위치 패널을 대상으로 KS F 2271 규격을 이용한 실험용 생쥐의 생체반응을 실험하였으며, NES 713을 이용한 독성가스에 대한 분석을 실시하였다. 샌드위치패널에서 발생하는 대표적인 유해성 가스는 시안화수소와 일산화탄소이며, 그 중에서 가장 유독한 것은 시안화수소로서 2차 세계대전 당시 유대인 학살에 사용된 독가스인데 시안화수소를 사람이 흡인한 경우 750ppm 이상이면 즉사하며, 375ppm 이상이면 30분 내에 사망하는 것으로 알려져 있다.

건축법에서 건축마감재료의 연소독성은 설치류(마우스)를 사용한 가스유해성시험으로 평가되고 있다. 최근 동물시험에 대한 최소화 및 대체시험개발의 필요성으로 인해 연소가스의 정량분석을 통한 독성지수연구가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이미 철도차량에서 적용되고 있는 BS6853의 연소독성평가를 통해 기존 가스유해성시험결과의 상대적인 비교분석을 수행하여, 건축재료의 연소독성평가에 대한 다양한 가능성을 제시하고자 하였다.

A fire resistance certification needs to be obtained before fire protection paint can be used in Korea. In the case of paint, the tests for certification are fire, gas hazard and bond strength. According to the hazard test standard of combustion gas, 16 mice are sacrificed every test. Therefore, there are ethical problems for the experimenter and legal problems for the laboratory. Accordingly, many alternatives are being assessed, such as combustion gas analysis, but they have not replaced animal testing yet. With gas hazard testing, the exhaust gas temperature can be measured. The property of the initial reaction of a specific fire paint can be characterized by this temperature. The purpose of this study was to consider the improvement point for a gas hazard test through comparative analysis of the exhaust temperature and the time of death of the mice.

Casualties due to toxic smoke products have been reported as major fire damage. There are various tests in order to evaluate toxic smoke from a fire at home and abroad, and KS F 2271 as a test of the gas hazard of building finish materials has been conducted in Korea. The current test of the gas hazard exposes rodent, laboratory rat, to smoke gases to evaluate combustion gas toxicity by measuring acting time of that. this study performed a test of the gas hazard for combustible polymer material, Urethane and rubber flooring, and determined gases with the FT-IR. Quantitative results compared with standard value defined in BS6853 and toxicity index (R) was calculated. Using relative comparison with animal test and the toxicity index, We tried a variety of toxicity evaluation by correlation analysis of two tests.

When polymeric materials are exposed to fire condition, a lot of heat and toxic gases evolved and cause damage to property and human being. Especially toxic gases are major hazard to life safety. This study FTIR(Fourier Transform Infrared) spectrometer analysis was performaed to etermine the gas analysis and the concentration of gases evolved from PVC, FRP, SMC and Ureathane foam using ASTM E 1678 fire model. And FED toxicity index calculated from FTIR data also presented. By the comparison of animal test adopted in KS F 2271 and FTIR gas analysis method, FTIR gas analysis method can replace current animal toxicity test and produce precise and quantitative combustion gas data.

가스센서는 인간의 오감 중에 후각 기능을 대신하는 것으로 사회 여러 분야에 응용범위가 확대되고 있다. 유기화합물(VOC; volatile organic compounds) 가스는 대기환경을 오염시켜 스모그를 발생하며 인체에 발암을 유발하는 물질이기 때문에 많은 문제와 규제가 예상되고 있다. 따라서 VOC를 감지하고 정확히 분석할 수 있는 환경 측정용 센서에 대한 요구가 절실해지고 있다. 최근에는 고온에서 동작하는 산화물 반도체 센서와는 달리 상온에서 유해성 가스를 감지할 수 있는 전도성 고분자의 특성이 알려지면서 센서 물질로 각광을 받고 있으며, 특히 유해성 가스인 VOC 가스를 검지 할 수 있는 센서로서 주목을 받고 있다. 전도성 고분자인 Polypyrrole를 pyrrole monomer, APS, DBSA를 사용하여 $0^{\circ}C$, 1기압에서 화학중합을 하였다. 만들어진 powder를 chloroform과 DBSA를 사용하여 용액을 만들어 전극에 dipping하고 7$0^{\circ}C$, 질소 분위기에서 1시간동안 건조를 하고 methanol에서 1시간동안 soaking 처리를 한 뒤 7$0^{\circ}C$, 질소 분위기에서 4시간동안 열처리 과정을 통해 센서를 제조하였다.

Smoke toxicity is the test for the toxicity evaluation of smoke and hazardous gas, caused by combustion of building materials and finishing materials. Smoke toxicity can be evaluated by the mean incapacitation time of mice. This test result can be influenced by the health status of mice and test condition. In acute inhalation toxicity test of hazardous gas, no typical clinical findings and histopathologic abnormalities were observed. Tracheitis and bronchitis as well as acute lung inflammation around terminal bronchiole in some mouse of the highest dose group. Through this study, we established the method for inhalation toxicity test of hazardous gas as well as the SOP of inhalation toxicity test. However, in the future studies, the concentration control methods for inhalation technologies on hazardous gas will be needed to improve continuously and also further studies on other gas inhalation toxicity will be needed to conduct.

Domestic building finishing materials are being evaluated according to KS F 2271 standards according to the notification of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, and this test is evaluated using laboratory animals. In this study, experiments were conducted on highly combustible organic insulation materials such as EPS, urethane, and phenolic foam. The purpose of this study was to analyze the cause of the behavioral suspension of the experimental mice by measuring the average behavioral suspension time of the mice caused by the harmful gas generated when these three types of insulation materials were burned. FTIR analysis and smoke density experiment were performed as a cause analysis method for the behavioral suspension of mice, and the experimental results were analyzed by dividing the causes of behavioral suspension into suffocation by particulate matter and toxic inhalation by gaseous substances. As a result of the test, urethane was evaluated as the most harmful insulation material, and as a result of FTIR analysis and smoke density test as a cause analysis for the gas toxicity test results, it is judged that the behavioral stop of the rats by suffocation is higher than the effect of toxic inhalation. This study is a basic study on the cause analysis of harmful gases, and it will be necessary to prepare the toxicity basis and analyze various materials and gases.
