Development of inhibitors based on organic-inorganic hybrid materials via sol-gel process

Oligomers of hard and soft segments of unsaturated polyesters (UP) were synthesized. They were blended in different ratios and cured with various amounts of styrene. Based on the criteria of tensile strength and strain, hard segment/soft segment (60/40 wt %) UPs containing 35 wt % and 45 wt % of extra amount of styrene were chosen for further studies. Inorganic-organic hybrid materials were prepared by incorporating tetraethoxysilane and poly(dimethylsiloxane) into the UP resins via the sol-gel process by changing the ratios of HCl/TEOS, H2O/TEOS, TEOS/PDMS and the reaction time. The specimens of these hybrid materials after curing were characterized using the tensile tester, rheometer, scanning electron microscope (SEM), 29Si-NMR and thermogravimeter. In the condition of HCl/TEOS molar ratio 0.07, H2O/TEOS molar ratio 4, TEOS/PDMS weight ratio 90/10 and the reaction time 3 hours, the results of 29Si-NMR, SEM and silicone mapping indicate that these silica gels with 3D network were well dispersed in the UP resins. These specimens had tensile strength of 512¡Ó16 kgf/cm2 and elongation of 11¡Ó4 % which are above the criteria of inhibitors. From the erosion testing, flame retardants was added unsaturated polyester and inorganic-organic hybrid materials that can help to resist heat flame, remain of a fire on the surface had the char forming.
