본 발명은 낙뢰 보호 금속층이 삽입된 항공기용 전자기파 흡수 폼 기반 샌드위치 복합재 및 이의 제조방법에 관한 것으로서, 특히 전자기파 흡수 성능을 발휘하고 낙뢰 피격 후에도 금속층 아래 구조물을 보호하여 스텔스 성능을 유지할 수 있는 전자기파 흡수 폼 기반 샌드위치 복합재에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an electromagnetic wave absorbing foam-based sandwich composite for aircraft in which a lightning protection metal layer is inserted and a method for manufacturing the same, and in particular, an electromagnetic wave absorbing foam capable of exhibiting electromagnetic wave absorbing performance and maintaining stealth performance by protecting a structure under the metal layer even after being struck by lightning It relates to a based sandwich composite.

항공기가 운항할 때 발생하는 낙뢰는 고온의 열에너지, 강한 전자기장을 유발하여 항공기에 직, 간접적으로 영향을 미친다. 항공기 운항 관점에서 낙뢰는 매우 위험한 요소이기 때문에 낙뢰 보호 시스템은 필수적으로 요구된다. 이를 대비하기 위해 항공기 기업들은 CM (Copper mesh), EMF (Expanded metal foil)과 같은 낙뢰 보호 시스템을 항공기에 적용하고 있다. 낙뢰는 크게 직접 영향과 간접 영향으로 구분되며, 직접 영향은 최대 200 kA에 이르는 고전류에 의한 열에너지와 전기적 충격에 의해 항공기 스킨, 윈드실드, 레이돔 등에 용융, 파손, 천공 등과 같은 영구적 손상을 발생시켜 안전성에 큰 영향을 미친다. Lightning that occurs when an aircraft is operating directly or indirectly affects the aircraft by causing high-temperature thermal energy and a strong electromagnetic field. Since lightning is a very dangerous factor in terms of aircraft operation, a lightning protection system is essential. To prepare for this, aircraft companies are applying lightning protection systems such as CM (Copper mesh) and EMF (Expanded metal foil) to aircraft. Lightning is largely divided into direct and indirect effects, and direct impact causes permanent damage such as melting, damage, and perforation to aircraft skin, windshield, and radome due to thermal energy and electrical shock caused by high currents of up to 200 kA, resulting in safety. have a great influence on

최근의 항공기 구조는 경량화 및 연료 효율을 높이기 위해 복합재 구조가 많이 사용되고 있는데 특히 복합재는 전기 전도도가 낮기 때문에 금속보다 낙뢰에 더 취약하다. 복합재의 높은 전기 저항은 순간적으로 열에너지(Joule 가열)로 변환되는 더 많은 전기 에너지를 흡수한다. 결과적으로 극도의 낙뢰 전류가 빠르게 전도되는 것을 방해하여, 아크 스파크, Joule 가열, 자기력 또는 절연 파괴를 초래한다. 또한 복합재를 구성하는 수지 매트릭스는 낮은 열 안정성 때문에 낙뢰 저항 열 또는 스파크에서 열화, 균열 또는 연소된다. 따라서 복합재 사용 비중이 증가함에 따라 항공기의 안전을 위해 고효율 낙뢰 보호시스템을 설계하는 것은 반드시 고려되어야 한다. In recent aircraft structures, composite structures are widely used to reduce weight and increase fuel efficiency. In particular, composite materials are more vulnerable to lightning strikes than metals because of their low electrical conductivity. The high electrical resistance of the composite absorbs more electrical energy which is instantly converted to thermal energy (Joule heating). As a result, extreme lightning currents are prevented from conducting quickly, resulting in arc sparks, Joule heating, magnetic force or dielectric breakdown. In addition, the resin matrix constituting the composite material deteriorates, cracks, or burns in lightning-resistant heat or sparks because of its low thermal stability. Therefore, as the proportion of composite materials increases, designing a high-efficiency lightning protection system for aircraft safety must be considered.

복합재 항공기 구조에서 낙뢰 보호 시스템을 적용하기 위해서는 일반적으로 두께가 얇은 금속층을 복합재 구조 외부에 적층하는 방법을 사용한다. 낙뢰가 복합재 구조물에 피격되었을 때 낙뢰 전류가 상대적으로 전기전도도가 높은 금속층을 따라 흘러나가게 되므로 복합재 구조물과 내부의 파손을 방지할 수 있다.In order to apply a lightning protection system in a composite aircraft structure, a method of laminating a thin metal layer on the outside of the composite structure is generally used. When lightning hits the composite structure, the lightning current flows along the metal layer with relatively high electrical conductivity, so damage to the composite structure and its interior can be prevented.

이와 관련, 종래의 한국공개특허 제10-2016-0110648호는 메탈 와이어 메쉬 및 장섬유 보강 열가소성 플라스틱 시트를 포함하는 복합재를 개시한다.In this regard, conventional Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2016-0110648 discloses a composite material including a metal wire mesh and a long fiber reinforced thermoplastic sheet.

하지만, 메탈 메쉬(Metal mesh)를 전자기파 흡수 구조에 적용할 경우, 낙뢰 피격으로 인한 구조적인 손상은 예방할 수 있으나 복합재 구조 외부에 위치한 메탈 메쉬로 인해 입사된 전자기파를 대부분 반사 시키기 때문에 전자기파 흡수 구조의 역할을 제대로 수행할 수 없는 문제점이 있다.However, when a metal mesh is applied to an electromagnetic wave absorbing structure, structural damage caused by lightning strikes can be prevented, but the metal mesh located outside the composite structure reflects most of the incident electromagnetic wave, so the role of the electromagnetic wave absorbing structure There is a problem that cannot be performed properly.
