Description

Specification WATER-BASED AEROGEL EFFICIENT FIRE EXTINGUISHING
AGENT AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREOF
Technical Field The present invention relates to the field of emergency and security new materials, particularly relates to a water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent, and further discloses a preparation method thereof.
Background Art There are always reports that people's lives and property safety are being severely threatened by shocking fires, so the perfmmances and functions of fire extinguishing agents have been attracting more and more attentions. Fire extinguishing agents refer to substances that can effectively destroy combustion conditions and thus stop combustion. The fire extinguishing agents used in traditional fire extinguishing products in market mainly include water-based fire extinguishing agents, dry powder fire extinguishing agents and clean gas fire extinguishing agents.
Regardless of their formulations, traditional fire extinguishing agents usually play a role in extinguishing fire from two aspects: one is temperature reduction, for instance, water can be used to bring the temperature of a combustion material down below the ignition point, and the liquid precipitated from the foam can cool the surface of a comburent; the other is oxygen insulation, for instance, foam or powder can be used to cover the surface of a comburent so to isolate it from air (oxygen), and the so-called "suffocation" caused by carbon dioxide also belongs to this principle.
However, there are usually many defects during the process of using traditional Date recue/Date received 2023-04-28 Specification fire extinguishing agents: 1. incompatible functions: it is often that traditional fire extinguishing agents cannot have both "cooling" and "isolation" functions at the same time, so different fire extinguishing agents are needed for different fire sources, which makes the operation more complicated; 2. limited application scenarios: the application scenarios of traditional fire extinguishing agents are greatly limited, for instance, foam extinguishing agents are not suitable for extinguishing live equipment fires, metal fires and gas fires, carbon dioxide extinguishing agents are not suitable for extinguishing chemical fires, metal fires and fiber material fires, and direct application of water on oil fires and combustible dust may easily cause deflagration; 3. unsatisfactory effects: insufficient effectiveness of traditional fire extinguishing agents are often shown at critical moments of fires, firefighters were powerless when facing the raging flames in both the accident of "Shenghua Company Deflagration in Zhangjiakou on 11.28" and the accident of "Tianjiayi Company Explosion in Xiangshui on 3.21", and they had to wait to carry out fire fighting and rescue only after the burning momentum was less fierce; 4. inadequate environmental protection: traditional fire extinguishing agents can easily cause injuries during using and have environmental pressures because they may cause pollutions when they are due to be recycled, so traditional fire extinguishing agents must meet the requirements of green environmental protection when the concept of green waters and mountains has been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
As a result, although traditional fire extinguishing agents are still occupying the market and playing an important role, they need to be upgraded. A new generation of multi-functional and efficient fire extinguishing agents is urgently needed, because traditional water-based fire extinguishing agents cannot take into account both general fires and oil fires, edible oil fires and live equipment fires;
moreover, traditional fire extinguishing agents have such use defects as low fire fighting efficiency.
2 Date recue/Date received 2023-04-28 Specification Summary of the Invention Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent, so as to overcome the following defects of prior art, such as narrow range of fire extinguishing objects, weak flame retardancy and low fire extinguishing efficiency.
The second technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a preparation method of the above-mentioned water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent.
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problem, the water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent according to the present invention, based on the total amount of preparation raw materials for the fire extinguishing agent, comprises raw material components with the following mass contents:
Inorganic aerogel powder 2-10 wt%;
Template agent 4-9 wt%;
Phosphorous flame retardant 15-18 wt%;
Nitrogenous flame retardant 13-16 wt%;
Hydrophilic colloid stabilizer 3-5 wt%;
Hydrogen ion concentration buffer 3-6 wt%;
Water the rest.
Specifically, the inorganic aerogel powder comprises at least one of the aerogel powders such as silicon oxide, alumina, zirconia, silica-aluminum binary hybrid and silica-zirconia binary hybrid; preferably, the inorganic aerogel needs to be preprocessed into a powder with a particle size of 10-100 microns.
Specifically, the template agent comprises at least one of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide, sodium do decylbenzene sulfonate or
3 Date recue/Date received 2023-04-28 Specification cetyltrimethylammonium chloride.
Specifically, the phosphorus flame retardant comprises at least one of ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, tri-(2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate ester or triisocyanate thiophosphate.
Specifically, the nitrogenous flame retardant comprises a mixture of at least two of urea, ammonium pentaborate (NH4B508-4H20), ammonium bicarbonate (NH4HCO3) or melamine cyanurate.
Specifically, the hydrophilic colloid stabilizer comprises at least one of carbomer, alginate or carboxymethyl cellulose.
Specifically, the hydrogen ion concentration buffer comprises a mixture of at least two of sodium dihydrogen phosphate, dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, acetic acid, sodium acetate, ammonia water and ammonium chloride.
The present invention further discloses a preparation method of the water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent, including the following steps of:
(1) preparing aerogel sol: take a selected amount of aerogel powder and inlet nitrogen at 180-250 C for heat treatment of surface modification, add a selected amount of the template agent for mixing and full grinding, and then add water and stir well, thereby obtaining needed aerogel sol, which is ready for use;
(2) preparing water-based flame retardant agent: take a selected amount of the phosphorus flame retardant and the nitrogenous flame retardant and mix them, add water for full mixture, and then add a selected amount of the hydrophilic colloid stabilizer and stir well, thereby obtaining a needed mixed liquor of water-based flame retardant agent, which is ready for use;
(3) adjusting pH value: stir the obtained aerogel sol and mixed liquor of water-based flame retardant agent well, and add the hydrogen ion concentration buffer so as to adjust the pH value of the mixed liquor to be neutral (6.5-7.5); and
4 Date recue/Date received 2023-04-28 Specification (4) curing: cure the obtained mixed material liquor at room temperature, thereby obtaining the needed fire extinguishing agent.
Specifically, in the step (1):
processing time for the heat treatment of surface modification for the aerogel powder is at least 3h; and processing time for the grinding is at least 3h.
Specifically, in step (4), processing time for the curing step is 8-9h.
With inorganic aerogel powder, template agent, phosphorous flame retardant, nitrogenous flame retardant and hydrophilic colloid stabilizer as raw materials, the water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent of the present invention can significantly enhance the efficiency of fire extinguishing agent by using the ultra-low thermal conductivity and ultra-high adsorption capacity of inorganic nano-porous aerogels; meanwhile, a combination of phosphorous flame retardant and nitrogenous flame retardant serve as a relevant functional component of the fire extinguishing agent, and the colloid stabilizer and the icon buffer are added into the water-based aerogel so as to enhance the uniformity and shelf life of the flame retardants, so that the fire extinguishing agent not only has efficient fire extinguishing function, excellent fire resistance function and flame retardant function, but also has a comparatively long quality guaranty and storage life, thereby having an effectively expanded fire extinguishing types, efficiency and application range.
As for the water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent of the present invention, inorganic nano-porous aerogel is first applied to the fire extinguishing agent, wherein the inorganic nano-porous aerogel includes at least one of the aerogels such as silica, alumina, zirconia, silicon aluminum binary hybrid, silicon zirconium binary hybrid aerogel, and the aerogel is used after being preprocessed into particles with a powder with a particle size of 10-100 microns. After full Date recue/Date received 2023-04-28 Specification absorption of fire extinguishing agent, a surface of the aerogel particle is uneven due to the abundant of holes, so the surface area is much greater than that of liquid particle (droplet) of the same volume, as a result, the volatilization of the fire extinguishing agent is also much faster than that of droplets under the same conditions, heat can be taken away much faster by the volatilization of the fire extinguishing agent than by that of pure liquid fire extinguishing agents, temperature is lowered more rapidly, and thus the fire center can be reached directly.
Moreover, aerogel particles with full absorption of fire extinguishing agent are formed with a layer of aerogel thermal insulation layer after volatilization of the fire extinguishing agent on the surface, which avoids over fast volatilization of the fire extinguishing agent in the center part and makes it possible to directly reach the fire center through the flame. Aerogel particles are adhered onto the surface of the comburent, while the fire extinguishing agent in the center continues to directly lower the temperature of the fire center, thereby overcoming defects of traditional pure liquid fire extinguishing agent, namely, in case of a fierce fire, traditional pure liquid fire extinguishing agents will be fully volatilized before reaching the fire center, so traditional pure liquid fire extinguishing agents can hardly be sprayed into the fire center. In addition, with a small volume, a light weight and a large surface area, the aerogel particles have an extremely high adsorption (adhesion), and can be rapidly adhered onto the surface of a comburent to cut off the air (oxygen), and can rapidly float and cover the surface of burning oil so as to cut off the air (oxygen), thereby rapidly extinguishing fire. The huge specific surface area of aerogel can also efficiently adsorb a variety of toxic and harmful gases. This agent is capable of rapidly adsorbing all kinds of smoke right after being sprayed for fire extinguishing, so that thick black fire smoke disappears rapidly and lives are effectively protected.
In addition, aerogel is currently a material with the lowest thermal conductivity in the world and has an efficient heat insulation effect; meanwhile, inorganic aerogel is also an excellent fireproof and flame retardant material. When it is adhered to cover Date recue/Date received 2023-04-28 Specification the surface of a comburent, it can effectively extinguish fires, as well as can retard flames and prevent re-burning. For forest, grassland and other mass fires, the present fire extinguishing agent can be sprayed to rapidly and efficiently form a fire barrier zone. To sum up, the water-based aerogel efficient fire extinguishing agent of the present invention effectively solves the problems of narrow application range of fire extinguishing objects, insufficient flame retardant performance and low fire extinguishing efficiency in the prior art, and has an extremely high application value.
