In Kompositwerkstoffe eingebettete faseroptische Sensoren können Bauteile bezüglich ihrer mechanischen Integrität überwachen und früh-zeitig Informationen über Materialveränderungen gewinnen. Um die Zuverlässigkeit eines solchen Sensors zu gewährleisten, ist es wichtig, die korrekte Funktion des Sensors im Verbund mit der Werkstoff-Matrix on-line und in-situ sicherzu-stellen. Im Rahmen des DFG-Projekts FAMOS² (FAser-basierter Magneto-Optischer SchichtSensor) wurde ein selbstdiagnosefähiger Schichtsensor entwickelt, der mit Hilfe von magnetostriktiven Aktorschichten aus Nickel bzw. Eisen-Nickel validiert werden kann. Der FAMOS²-Schichtsensor wird durch ein PVD (physical vapour deposition)/ECD (electro-chemical deposition) Hybridschichtsystem realisiert, das auf dem Fasermantel im Bereich des FBG haftfest, homogen und langzeitfunktional abzuscheiden ist. Dabei wird in einem ersten Schritt ein etwa 100 Nanometer dünnes PVD-Schichtsystem aus Chrom und Kupfer als Haftvermittler auf der Glasfaser bzw. als leitfähige Startschicht für den nachfolgenden ECD-Prozess abgeschieden. Um eine rotationssymmetrische Schich-tabscheidung zu gewährleisten, erfolgt während der PVD-Beschichtung eine Rotation der Glasfasern. In einem zweiten Schritt wird dann unter Verwendung eines klassischen Watts-Elektrolyten in einer speziell entwickelten ebenfalls rotationssymmetrisch aufgebau-ten ECD-Durchströmungszelle dann die etwa 30 Mikrometer dicke, magnetostriktive Ak-torschicht auf dem PVD-Schichtsystem abgeschieden, im Vergleich sowohl reine Nickel-Schichten als auch Nickel-Eisen-Schichten. Ein äußeres Magnetfeld dehnt die magnetostriktive Aktorschicht und damit auch die Faser reversibel. Diese Dehnung führt zu einer Verschiebung der Bragg-Wellenlänge, welche direkt mit der Stärke eines zu messenden oder zu Validierungszwecken vorgegebenen Magnetfeldes korreliert. Die Anpassung der Beschichtungsverfahren an die Fasergeome-trie und die mechanischen Eigenschaften der Hybridschichten werden hinsichtlich der me-chanischen Integrität des faseroptischen Sensors diskutiert und der Nachweis der Selbst-diagnosefähigkeit erbracht.

In der Arbeit wurden zwei unterschiedliche Flammschutzkonzepte polymerer Baustoffe mit Hilfe des Cone Calorimeter untersucht und bewertet. Polymer-Schicht-Nanocomposites sind ein neues Konzept für flammgeschützte Werkstoffe, die aus einer Polymermatrix und der Zugabe eines nanoskaligen Schichtsilikat- Additivs von ca. 5 Gew.-% bestehen. Im Brandfall bilden die Schichtsilikate eine Barriere, die den Wärmetransport in das Material bzw. den Stofftransport der Pyrolysegase aus dem Material hemmt. Mit einem Modellsystem wurde gezeigt, dass dieser Barriereeffekt das Brandverhalten hinsichtlich der Flammenausbreitung verbessert, in anderen Brandszenarien aber wirkungslos bleibt. Die Ergebnisse der Cone Calorimeter Untersuchungen wurden mit denen der Entflammbarkeitstests UL 94 und LOI verglichen. Eine Korrelation in Richtung kleiner Probendimensionen (downscale) und in Richtung Phase der Brandentstehung wurde aufgezeigt. Die Anwendung intumeszierender Beschichtungen auf Bauteile verschiedener Art, wie z. B. tragende Stahlkonstruktionen, ist ein etabliertes Brandschutzkonzept. Das intumeszierende Polymermaterial schäumt unter Wärmeeinwirkung auf und bildet eine wärmeisolierende Schicht. Zur Bewertung der Wirkungsweise dieses Polymermaterials wurde ein auf Temperaturmessungen basierendes Verfahren mit dem Cone Calorimeter und für Simulationsrechnung entwickelt. Die Ergebnisse wurden mit denen aus Kleinprüfstanduntersuchungen verglichen. Eine Korrelation in Richtung großer Probendimensionen (upscale) und in Richtung der Phase des voll entwickelten Brandes konnte bis zu einer Temperaturgrenze gezeigt werden. N2 - Objective of this thesis was the investigation and evaluation of two different concepts of flame-retarding polymeric building materials. In the centre of this concern is the cone calorimeter as a versatile device in the field of flame retardancy and burning behaviour of materials and constructions. The cone calorimeter is characterized by a medium sample dimension (100 x 100 mm2). It simulates the phase of flame spread of a real burning process. The capabilities of the sample materials were of interest as well as the potentials and limitations of the investigation method. The scientific significance of cone calorimeter results was analysed in terms of different fire Scenarios and sample dimensions. Polymer Layered Silicate Nanocomposites are a new concept of flame retarding materials consisting of a polymer matrix and the addition of about 5 wt.-% nanoscale clay. In the case of a fire the clay layers built up a barrier, which hinders the heat transport into the sample and the mass transport of pyrolysis gases out of the material. Using a model system it was shown, that this barrier effect results in an essential improvement in burning behaviour in terms of flame spread but was ineffective for different fire scenarios and phases of burning, respectively. The results of cone calorimeter measurements were compared to results of the flammability tests UL 94 and LOI. A correlation towards smaller sample dimensions (downscale) and towards the phase of flammability was shown. The application of intumescent coatings on different structural members like supporting steel constructions is an established concept of fire retardancy. The intumescent polymeric material swells under thermal impact and forms a heat insulating layer. A method combining temperature measurement using the cone calorimeter and Computer simulation was developed, by which the fire protective effect could be evaluated. Investigation results were compared to results of small scale test furnace measurements. A correlation towards larger sample dimensions (upscale) and towards the phase of a fully developed fire could be shown up to a limitation by temperature.

T1 - Combustion behaviour of epoxide based nanocomposites with ammonium and phosponium bentonites N2 - The influence of different organobentonites on the decomposition and the combustion behaviour of an epoxy resin were examined. The epoxy resin is a cationically polymerised cycloaliphatic epoxy resin flexibilised with poly(tetrahydrofuran) (PTHF), with hydroxyl endgroups. The bentonite was modified with either an ammonium or a phosphonium salt. The thermal decomposition of the PTHF induced by the initiator, used for the cationic polymerisation, did neither take place for the nanocomposite based on the ammonium bentonite nor for that based on the phosphonium bentonite. This improved decomposition characteristic lead to a larger time to ignition for both kinds of nanocomposites compared to the not modified polymer, which is not the case for other polymer/clay nanocomposites described in the literature. The fire behaviour was investigated using limiting oxygen index (LOI), a horizontal burner test and a cone calorimeter. The forced flaming conditions in the cone calorimeter were varied using different external heat fluxes between 30 and 70 kW · m-2. The fire behaviour of the nanocomposites was improved in comparison to the polymer, and phosphonium bentonite was superior to ammonium bentonite. The main mechanism is a barrier formation resulting in a reduction of the fire growth rate, which was more pronounced in the case of high external heat fluxes.

Investigations of the potentials and the tasks using a model system N2 - Polymeric nanocomposites are discussed as one of the most promising advanced materials whose nanoscale effects can be exploited for industry. Layered silicate polypropylene-graft-maleic anhydride nanocomposites are investigated as a model to clarify the potential of such materials in terms of fire retardancy. The nanostructure is characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and shear viscosity. The fire behavior is characterized using different external heat fluxes in cone calorimeter, limiting oxygen index and UL 94 classification. A comprehensive fire behavior characterization is presented which enables an assessment of the materials’ potential with respect to different fire scenarios and fire tests. The influence of morphology and the active mechanisms are discussed, such as barrier formation and changed melt viscosity. To our knowledge, it is the first attempt to illuminate the concept’s strengths, such as the reduction of flame spread, and weaknesses, such as the lack of influence on ignitability, in a clear, comprehensive and detailed manner.

The temperature dependence, the corresponding volatile products and the amount of residue of the different processes were determined. Using both TG-MS and TG-FTIR results in an unambiguous interpretation of the volatile products. Characteristics such as the influence of endothermic reactions, the release of non-flammable gases, the dehydrogenation enhancing the char formation and the stability of the cellular char were discussed in detail. It was demonstrated, that TG, TG-MS and TG-FTIR are powerful methods to investigate mechanisms in intumescent coatings and that they are suitable methods in respect to quality assurance and unambiguous identification of such materials.

The idea of the investigation was to develop a simple test method to determine the time dependent thermal conductivity of intumescent coatings. Therefore steel plates were coated with two different intumescent systems. During cone calorimeter tests the temperature at the back side of the coated plates was measured. These results were used to calculate the time dependent thermal resistance of the protective layer with the simulation program IOPT2D for different external heat fluxes and different layer thickness.

The paper addresses three important ways in which the principal setup influences the results — factors which sometimes do not receive due consideration when drawing conclusions. The paper discusses in detail the impact on cone calorimeter results of the choice of external heat flux, the influence on the peak of heat release rate of sample thickness and thermal feedback from the back of the sample, and the influence on irradiance of the horizontal and vertical distances from the cone heater.

They result in specific impacts on fire properties that consequentially cause varying flame retardancy efficiency in different fire tests. The barrier formation retards mainly flame spread (peak of heat release rate) in developing fires, but does not reduce fire load (total heat evolved), ignitability or flammability (limiting oxygen index, UL 94). Furthermore, this flame retardancy effect increases with increasing irradiation and vanishes with decreasing irradiation. The increased melt viscosity prevents dripping, which is beneficial or disadvantageous depending on the fire test used. In some test, it become the dominant influence, transforming self-extinguishing samples into flammable materials or causing wicking. Advantages and the limits are sketched comprehensively for exploiting the main general fire retardancy mechanisms of polymer nanocomposites. It is concluded that barrier formation and changing the melt viscosity in nanocomposites are not sufficient for most applications, but must be accompanied by additional mechanisms in special systems or in combination with other flame retardants.
