Recently, inorganic-organic hybrid materials have attracted much attention not only for their excellent thermal conductivity but also for their flame retardant properties. In this study, the properties of organic-inorganic hybrid insulating materials using inorganic fillers and polyurethane foam with different foaming conditions have been investigated. The addition of 1.5 wt% water to polyurethane as foaming agent shows the best foaming properties. The pore size was decreased in the foaming body with increasing of the CaCO3 addition. The apparent density and thermal conductivity were increased by increasing the CaCO3 addition. With an increasing amount of CaCO3 powder, the flame retardant property is improved, but the properties of thermal conductivity and apparent density tend to decrease. When the addition of fine particles of CaCO3, the apparent density and thermal conductivity were increased and, also, with the addition of coarse particles over 45μm in size, the apparent density and thermal conductivity were increased as well. In this study, the adding of CaCO3 with average particle size of 27μm led to the lowest thermal conductivity and apparent density. After evaluation with different inorganic fillers, Mg(OH)2 showed the highest thermal conductivity; on the other hand, CaCO3 showed the lowest thermal conductivity.

PTMSP에 20 wt% PMMH dendrimer와 10, 20, 30, 40 wt% NaY zeolite를 가하여 PTMSP-PMMH-NaY zeolite 복합막을 제조하였다. 복합막의 물리화학적 특성을 FT-IR, TGA, SEM을 사용하여 조사하였고, H2와 N2 기체에 대한 투과도와 선택도 성질을 고찰하였다. PTMSP-PMMH-NaY zeolite 복합막의 투과도는 zeolite 함량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였고, 수소와 질소의 투과도는 각각 3,950~592,000 barrer와 1,550~143,000 barrer를 보였다. 질소에 대한 수소의 선택도는 0~30 wt%에서는 뚜렷한 차이가 나타나지 않았고, 30~40 wt%에서는 2.2~4.2 범위로 증가하는 경향을 보였다.
