  Heat Shielding Properties of Water-Containing Plastics
 
 
Title: Heat Shielding Properties of Water-Containing Plastics
Author: Mita, Itaru
Kambe, Hirotaro
Appeared in: International journal of polymeric materials
Paging: Volume 1 (1972) nr. 2 pages 175-185
Year: 1972-01-01
Contents: Water-containing unsaturated polyester (WCP) and fiber reinforced plastics based on it were prepared by an inverted emulsion method and their heat shielding properties were studied by torch burner test at ca. 1500°C and 2500°C. The temperature rise in the resins was considerably retarded with increasing water content for both non-reinforced and reinforced WCP. The retardation of temperature rise due to water was more important at 1500°C than at 2500°C. The weight loss, however, was little affected at 1500°C and increased at 2500°C by the presence of water. The thickness of char layer decreased appreciably with water content. Sucrose dissolved in water had a large effect to retard further the temperature rise and to reduce the rate of weight loss of WCP at 1500°C but the effect was small at 2500°C.
