Calcium silicate inorganic insulating material is a porous material which is made of 90 wt% of cement. Unlike existing inorganic insulation materials, it is produced without high temperature curing process and also it costs much less than existing inorganic insulation materials. It is an innovative insulation material that supplemented disadvantages of conventional inorganic insulation material. Researches and developments about inorganic insulation materials have been actively researched abroad. Calcium silicate insulation has $0.13g/cm^3$ of specific gravity. Its heat conductivity is under 0.050W/mK, which it similar to conventional inorganic insulation. However, it has weak compressive strength compared to other inorganic insulation. The point of this research is to manifest that calcium silicate inorganic insulating material can have certain compressive strength after curing process with high insulating performance and to find out the proper curing methods and period.

현재 우리나라는 에너지 소비량의 97% 이상을 해외에 의존하고 있으며, 그 규모가 매년 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 이를 해소하기 위하여 다양한 시도가 이루어지고 있으며 이에 따른 관련 연구 분야의 정부 정책 지원도 증가하는 추세이다. 그러나 새로운 차세대 단열 소재의 개발을 통한 에너지 절감에 대한 노력은 아직 미흡한 상태이다. 본고에서는 이와 관련하여 에너지 효율 극대화 방안으로써, 기존의 단열 소재의 현황 및 향후 단열 소재의 연구방향을 다공질 세라믹(특히 에어로겔)을 중심으로 정리 기술함으로써 앞으로의 발전방향을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 이를 통하여 전체적인 다공성 무기질 단열 소재에 대한 이해를 높여 향후 친환경적이며, 에너지 효율적인 단열소재 연구 분야를 확립하는데 기여하고자 한다.

In this study, the engineering characteristics of outer wall insulation panels according to type of insulation materials, their combination, and the contents of insulation materials were tested. Vermiculate, ceramic bead, perlite and expanded polystyrene were used as insulation materials. Flexural strength and thermal conductivity depending on the insulation materials used were measured. It was found that the flow of fresh mortar significantly decreased with an increase in the contents of insulation materials. In terms of the effect of insulation materials on thermal conductivity, an increase in insulation materials resulted in a decrease of thermal conductivity. In particular, PL and EPS, when used together, have lower thermal conductivity than other materials. Regarding the flexural strength of the hardened mortar, the strength showed a tendency to gradually decrease according to the increase in contents of insulation materials, compared to that of the plain mortar. In terms of the flexural strength depending on various types of insulation materials and its combination, it was found that the flexural strength of cement mortar containing 3% of vermiculate(V)+ceramic bead(CB)+perlite(PL) was the highest among the specimens tested.

에어로젤은 인류가 개발한 소재 중에서 가장 가벼운 고체로, 기공률이 90%이상이고 비표면적은 ~1000m2/g, 기공의 크기는 10nm 크기로 이루어진 나노기공 물질이다. 1931년에 Kisley가 물유리로부터 실리카 에어로젤을 합성한 이래로 실리카 에어로젤에 대한 연구가 가장 많이 이루어져왔으며, 단열소재, 흡음재, 체렌코프우주선 디텍터, 반도체의 초저유전소재, 유출된 석유의 정제, 촉매 등에 대한 응용에 대해서도 연구가 많이 이루어져 왔다. 그리고TiO2와 같은 광촉매 에어로젤 소재, 카본 에어로젤 소재등 다양한 나노기공 소재에 대해서도 연구가 이루어지고 있으며, 카본 에어로젤의 경우 나노기공과 비표면적을이용한 전기이중층 커패시터 (EDLC)에 대한 연구도 이루어지고 이다. 본 연구에서는 첫째로, 실리카 에어로젤에 대한 연구결과를 소개하고 이의 단열소재로서의 응용가능성에대하여 언급하고자 한다. 실리카 에어로젤 나노기공 소재의 경우, 기공크기가 10nm크기로 매우 작고 공기의 자유이동길이와 거의 비슷하여서 대류에 의한 열전달을 낮출 수 있으며, 낮은 고체함량으로 인하여 포논에 의한 열전달을 낮출 수 있기 때문에 단열소재로서 최고의 성능을 나타낸다. 하지만, 문제는 높은 기공률로 인한 기계적인 취약성이 문제이다. 따라서 이를 보완하기 위항 섬유로 에어로젤을 보강할 수 있는데, 이를통하여 에어로젤 나노기공소재와 섬유보강에 의한 복합화에 대하여 말하고자 한다. 또 다른 하나의 연구방법은유기-무기 하이브리드 나노기공 소재를 합성하는 것이다. 여기서는하나의 방법으로 MTEOS-TEOS의 하이브리드화와 초임계 건조공정에 의한 나노기공 소재에 대한 연구결과를소개하고자 한다. 마지막으로 카본 에어로젤 나노기공소재의 합성과 나노기공 구조의 제어 및 물성평가에 대한 것을 말하고자하는데, 본 발표에서는 레소시놀과 포름알데히드를 촉매에 의한 중합반응을 통하여 유기 에어로젤 소재를 합성하고 분위기에서탄소화 공정을 통하여 카본에어로젤을 합성하였다. 또한 금속 니켈을 도입하는 것에 의하여 탄소/니켈 복합 하이브리드 에어로젤 소재를 합성하고 슈퍼커패시터 전기화학 특성에 대한 연구결과를 발표하고자 한다.

For the purpose of energy consumption and green-house gas reduction from building, new insulation materials with improved thermal property have been developed and used. Among new insulation materials, mineral hydrate which compensates for the defects of existing materials is using as a prominent insulation material. The fabrication method of mineral hydrate is similar to that of ALC for building structure but mineral hydrate is only used for insulation. The raw materials that make up of mineral hydrate are cement, lime and anhydrite. Especially anhydrite is all dependant on imports. In this study, Desulfurization Gypsum(DG), by-product of oil plant, was used for replacing for imported anhydrite and waste recycling. DG substituted all of anhydrite and a part of lime. Mineral hydrate used DG had analogous thermal and physical properties, compared to existing mineral hydrate.

In this study, the inorganic insulating material was fabricated with quartzite, ordinary portland cement(OPC), lime and anhydrous gypsum. After characteristic analysis of slurry, the optimum mixing ratio was derived with different $CaO/SiO_2$ mole ratio. Based on derived mixing ratio, the inorganic insulating material was fabricated at different water content and hydrothermal synthesis conditions. Specific gravity was $0.26g/cm^3$, compressive strength was 0.4 MPa, and thermal conductivity was 0.064 W/mK. This properties were enhanced performance of conventional ALC (Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete). And it can replace organic insulation with harmless inorganic insulation through continues research and development.

Cyclic heating method is useful method for measuring the thermal diffusivity of porous materials. The main object of this paper is to develop and verify the thermal diffusivity measuring system of porous materials under vacuum condition. To verify this method, thermal diffusivities of the alumina ($Al_2O_3$) specimen and polystyrene foam were measured. Thermal diffusivities of these specimens were agreed with reference values. Thermal diffusivities of carbon/epoxy and porous insulation material were measured at atmospheric room temperature condition and vacuum condition respectively. Thermal diffusivities of carbon/epoxy and porous insulation material under vacuum are reduced by 66.4% and 64.9% compared to the thermal diffusivities under the atmospheric condition. These differences are considered the effect of the porous insulation material with an air.

As interest in the eco-friendly ships and lightweight equipment is increasing in the shipbuilding and marine industry, composite materials are applied to equipment such as pipes. In this study, a basalt fiber reinforced furan composite (BFC), an eco-friendly material, was manufactured to apply the pipe insulation cover that requires environment-friendly and heat/flame retardant performance. An optimization study of post-curing conditions of BFC was conducted, and experiments and analysis were performed on mechanical strength, heat/flame retardant properties, and affinity properties. Finally, as a result of the study BFC material is proved to be a good candidate to apply pipe insulation cover.

The purpose of this study is to develop an organic-inorganic hybrid insulation materials which has an economic feasibility of organic level and excellent adiabatic performance and fire stability by impregnating organic materials with inorganic binder solutions. The organic base was commercial polyurethane sponge, and the inorganic binder slurry was prepared by mixing water and additives into recycled gypsum byproducts. As a result of evaluation of the developed materials, it was confirmed that it not only has excellent insulation performance of a thermal conductivity of 0.051 W/mK or less but also it is a semi-non-combustible materials specified in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Notice No. 2015-744. The developed materials can also be controlled for thermal conductivity and flame retardance according to density control during manufacturing process, and thus it can be applied to various insulation materials.
