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.

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.

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.

Nowadays in Korea, KS F 2271 has been using for the test of fire safety performance of sandwich panels. Smoke toxicity test 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; however this method is not a quantitative way. This test result can be influenced by the health status of mice and test condition. Specific optical density can be quantitatively measured by ISO 5659-2 single chamber method and toxic gases can be quantitatively measured by FTIR analysis. In this study, specific optical density of sandwich panel insulations, which are widely used in Korea, were tested using the ISO 5659-2 single chamber test method and compared with each test. Also, in the second test of three tests for each specimen, FTIR analysis was performed and quantitative test results(HCl, $NO_2$, etc) were compared with each test result.

토양에 방치된 농업용 폐비닐은 거의 분해가 되지 않으며, 수분과 공기의 유통을 차단하고 토양 내 미생물들의 흐름을 막아 토양을 더욱 황폐화시키게 된다. 불법적인 소각 때는 산불의 위험에다 다이옥신, 염소 및 염화수소가스 등을 배출해 대기오염을 유발시킨다. 폐비닐을 열분해과정으로 처리하여 아주 작은 입자로 미분쇄하고 겔상태로 용융된 원료물질속으로 완전히 균일하게 혼합하여 골재로 활용하는 과정에서 가스상과 액상의 여러 가지 중간생성물질이 발생하게 되며, 농약의 살포에 의한 잔류농약 둥 인체에 유해가능한 요소들이 있을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 개발공정이나 제품에서 인체에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 물질에 대하여 유해성을 평가하고 용응 겔 및 가스와 오일에 함유된 화학성분을 분석하였기에 보고하고자 한다 시험동물의 혈액생화학적 검사에서는 농업용 폐비닐물질 및 열분해 파생물질의 혈청 Cholesterol, 혈청 Alanine aminotranseferse와 Aspartate aminotransferse, Albumin 수치, LDH, Glucose, Uric acid, A/C 비 등의 생화학적 활성도를 측정한 결과들에서는 농업용 폐비닐물질을 투여한 시험군에서 나타난 결과와 비교하여 열분해 파생물질을 투여한 시험군에서 나타난 결과가 감소된 통계결과를 보였다. 이 결과들은 농업용 폐비닐물질을 투여한 시험군보다 열분해 파생물질을 투여한 시험군의 외부독성물질 투여에 의한 생체독성의 영향과 생체에 가해진 스트레스강도가 작았음을 의미하는 것이다. 잔류농약분석에서는 시료로부터 농약을 추출하는 용매추출과정, 시료추출물 중 공존하는 방해성분을 제거하는 정제과정, 폐비닐물질 및 열분해 파생물질 성분을 100mg/kg 이상군의 투여 후 시험동물의 부검시 모든 투여군에서 독성소견이 인정되지 않았다. 이와 같은 결과로 열분해 및 연소과정에서 발생하는 파생물질의 분석결과를 응용하여 대기오염을 방지하고 인체 유해물질을 차단하는 공해 방지 설계의 기초자료를 제안하고자 한다.

Combustion Toxic Effects among several factors of risk encountered during fire are important in the evacuation and final survival, and they are broader and fatal than the direct damages caused by flame. Most studies on fire toxicity until the present are limited to fatality, mainly deaths by fire through pathological research. In this study, it is conducted as a fundamental experiment to address 3 principles of animal experiment and to provide an alternative test to animal testing that is regulated by national building codes and it was conducted through approval by the animal testing ethics committee. Hence, in this study average time of activity stop was measured after directly inhaling toxic gases (HCN) to laboratory animals (mice) through gas toxicity test (KS F 2271) for major asphyxiating gases(HCN) which are produced during fire combustion. effects of Combustion toxic gases on body were quantitatively analyzed through changes in internal organs and hematological analysis, and electrophoresis of a single cell of these laboratory animals. Biological conclusion of combustion toxicology is drawn through approaches (pathological examination, blood test, blood biochemical test, electrophoresis analysis of single cell) which could not confirmed in existing gas toxicity test.
