The present invention relates to a flame resistance predicting device that predicts flame resistance of a polymer composite material from formulation information of a material, a flame resistance prediction model generating device, a flame resistance prediction model, and a feature amount extracting device.
With development of society and advancement of technology, metal is being replaced with plastic in applications such as an automobile, an electronic device, and an industrial material. There is an increasing need to impart flame resistance to plastics more than ever before from a viewpoint of recent sustainable development goals (SDGs) and safety and security. In particular, electric and electronic devices potentially have a risk of ignition due to a short circuit of a circuit, deterioration, and the like, and thus, it is predicted that a demand for flame resistance of a polymer composite material (polymer organic material) used for a housing of a device and the like will become more severe.
As a combustion mechanism of a polymer composite material, it is known that combustion continues in a cycle including the following (1) to (6) (source: homepage of Flame Retardant Chemicals Association of Japan).
Therefore, in order to stop combustion, it is only required to prevent continuation of the above cycle, and imparting of flame resistance is only required to act on any one or more of (1) to (6). For example, a flame retardant based on a combustion mechanism has been designed, such as a halogen compound having an effect of stabilizing active OH radicals by a radical trap effect and blocking oxygen, a phosphorus-based compound that promotes formation of char and a heat insulating layer, a metal hydroxide having an endothermic effect by a dehydration reaction, or a drip prevention agent that suppresses dropping (drip) of a resin material during combustion. Imparting of flame resistance to a composite material is designed by adding these flame retardants.
Meanwhile, since a composite material used for a housing or the like is required to have other characteristics such as impact resistance and moldability in addition to flame resistance, a plurality of additives is often used in combination. However, these characteristics are likely to be trade-off. For example, it is known that toughness and rigidity of a resin are reduced by adding a flame retardant, and Patent Literature 1 discloses a thermoplastic resin composition that solves this problem.
The thermoplastic resin composition described in Patent Literature 1 has excellent flame resistance, can prevent adhesion of a flame retardant to a die during injection molding, and has rigidity, toughness, and heat resistance, but other characteristics are not mentioned. When optimal formulation design of a composite material satisfying various characteristics is performed, trial and error is performed in which an experimental formulation in which a plurality of additives is exquisitely blended is determined on the basis of previous intuition and experience, kneading and molding are actually performed, flame resistance and other evaluation tests are performed, and the formulation is reformulated on the basis of results thereof. However, with such a method, development efficiency is poor.
As described above, it is not easy to develop a composite material having flame resistance. In a case of optimization of one characteristic of flame resistance, material design based on the above-described cycle of (1) to (6) is possible. However, as described above, various additives are required in order to satisfy various characteristics in addition to flame resistance. In composite materials in which kinds, blending, and molding processes of resins and additives to be used are different from each other, combustion behaviors thereof are different from each other, and it is difficult for a human to interpret what has been effective to cause flame resistance. As a result, in development of a composite material imparting flame resistance, formulation is currently determined by trial and error by repeating trial production
The present invention has been made in view of such a background, and an object of the present invention is to provide a flame resistance predicting device capable of improving efficiency of development of a composite material having flame resistance, a flame resistance prediction model generating device, a flame resistance prediction model, and a feature amount extracting device.

Hereinafter, a flame resistance predicting device in a mode (embodiment) for carrying out the present invention will be described. The flame resistance predicting device predicts information regarding flame resistance of a polymer composite material (composite material) from material formulation information (formulation information of a material) of the polymer composite material using a machine learning technique. The material formulation information is a ratio of a resin or an additive contained in the composite material. The information regarding the flame resistance is, for example, suitability for a standard regarding the flame resistance. In order to improve prediction accuracy, information regarding specific combustion may be added to the input of the prediction process in addition to the material formulation information.
By predicting the flame resistance from the material formulation information, a composite material predicted to have flame resistance can be preferentially produced by way of trial and tested for the flame resistance. By performing trial production and test from a candidate with higher possibility, the number of times of trial production and test can be reduced, and development can be made efficient.
The storage unit 120 includes a storage device such as a read only memory (ROM), a random access memory (RAM), or a solid state drive (SSD). The storage unit 120 stores a material information database 130 (see
The identification information 131 is identification information of a composite material.
The material formulation information 132 is a ratio of a resin or an additive to be a material of a composite material, and is, for example, a weight ratio. Note that there is generally a plurality of additives.
The flame resistance 133 is suitability of a composite material for a standard of flame resistance, and is “Y” when the composite material is suitable and “N” when the composite material is unsuitable. The flame resistance 133 is information obtained from a result of a combustion experiment performed on a composite material made of a material indicated in the material formulation information 132. The standard of flame resistance is, for example, UL94 related to flame resistance issued by Underwriters Laboratories. The UL94 includes a grade such as V-0 or V-2. The flame resistance 133 indicates suitability of a composite material, for example, for a V-2 grade. The flame resistance 133 may be suitability for another standard, or may be suitability for a unique standard related to flame resistance.
Note that the data (record) in the material information database 130 is used for generation of the prediction model 121 (see step S12 in
Returning to
The information acquisition unit 111 acquires material formulation information and flame resistance information of a composite material, and stores the material formulation information and the flame resistance information in the material information database 130.
The learning unit 112 trains a machine learning model using the data in the material information database 130 as teacher data to generate the prediction model 121. The prediction model 121 is, for example, a machine learning model of a decision tree, but may be another model of a machine learning technique, such as a random forest, a neural network, or a support vector machine (SVM).
The prediction unit 113 predicts flame resistance of a composite material from the material formulation information of the composite material acquired by the information acquisition unit 111 using the prediction model 121.
In step S1l, the information acquisition unit 111 acquires material formulation information of a composite material and flame resistance of the composite material, and stores the material formulation information and the flame resistance in the material information database 130. The data of the material information database 130 is data in which the material formulation information 132 is regarded as an explanatory variable (input) and the flame resistance 133 is regarded as an objective variable (output, correct label).
In step S12, the learning unit 112 acquires a plurality of pieces of data in the material information database 130, and trains a machine learning model using these pieces of data as teacher data to generate the prediction model 121. Note that the teacher data is data in which the material formulation information 132 is regarded as an explanatory variable (input) and the flame resistance 133 is regarded as an objective variable (output, correct label).
In step S13, the learning unit 112 evaluates performance (prediction accuracy) of the prediction model [2] using data included in in the material information database 130 and not used in step S12
In step S14, the learning unit 112 determines whether or not the performance of the prediction model in the step S13 is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold. If the performance is equal to or more than the predetermined threshold (step S14→YES), the learning unit 112 ends the learning process. If the performance is less than the threshold (step S14→NO), the learning unit 112 returns to step S12.
In step S21, the information acquisition unit 111 acquires material formulation information of a composite material for which flame resistance is predicted.
In step S22, the prediction unit 113 acquires the material formulation information acquired in step S21 as an input (explanatory variable) of the prediction model 121, and acquires flame resistance to be an output as a prediction result. The prediction unit 113 displays the prediction result on a display connected to the input/output unit 180.
A performance evaluation result of the flame resistance predicting device 100 (prediction model 121) is indicated below. In a first evaluation experiment, 38 composite materials were prepared and subjected to a combustion test to acquire suitability (suitable/unsuitable) thereof for a V2 grade of UL94. Polypropylene was used as a resin, and ten kinds of additives were used. The prediction model 121 of a decision tree was generated using 27 composite materials out of the 38 composite materials as teacher data. Subsequently, performance (prediction accuracy) was evaluated using eleven pieces of verification data that had not been used as teacher data.
The top right “2” is the number of composite materials that were predicted to be suitable for the V-2 grade, were unsuitable as combustion test results, and were incorrectly predicted (false positive). The lower left “1” is the number of composite materials that were predicted to be unsuitable for the V-2 grade, were suitable as combustion test results, and were incorrectly predicted (false negative). A correct answer ratio is (5+3)/(5+3+1+2)=72.7%, which is generally good prediction accuracy.
In a second evaluation experiment, 26 composite materials were prepared and subjected to a combustion test to acquire suitability for a V0 grade. Polypropylene was used as a resin, and ten kinds of additives were used. The prediction model 121 of a decision tree was generated using 15 composite materials out of the 26 composite materials as teacher data. Subsequently, performance was evaluated using eleven pieces of verification data that had not been used as teacher data.
The flame resistance predicting device 100 predicts suitability for a standard of flame resistance from material formulation information of a composite material. By predicting the flame resistance from the material formulation information, a composite material predicted to have flame resistance can be preferentially produced by way of trial and tested for the flame resistance By performing trial production and test from a candidate with higher possibility, the number of times of trial production and test can be reduced, and development can be made efficient.
In the first embodiment, the information (explanatory variable) for predicting the flame resistance is only the material formulation information. Information regarding combustion may be added to the explanatory variable.
Returning to
Nodes 311 to 317 indicate a group of classification targets. The node 311 which is a route indicates all the classification targets. Classification targets included in the node 311 are classified into a group of classification targets indicated by the node 312 when an explanatory variable X is less than 3, and classified into a group of classification targets indicated by the node 313 when the explanatory variable X is 3 or more. The node 313 is a terminal node in the decision tree 310, and indicates that classification is ended.
Classification targets included in the node 312 are classified into a group of classification targets indicated by the node 314 when an explanatory variable Y is less than 7.3, and classified into a group of classification targets indicated by the node 315 when the explanatory variable Y is 7.3 or more. The node 314 is a terminal node in the decision tree 310, and indicates that classification is ended.
Classification targets included in the node 315 are classified into a group of classification targets indicated by the node 316 when an explanatory variable Z is 3, and classified into a group of classification targets indicated by the node 317 when the explanatory variable Z is not 3. The nodes 316 and 317 are terminal nodes in the decision tree 310, and indicate that classification is ended.
As described above, the group of classification targets indicated by the node 311 is classified into four groups (categories) indicated by the nodes 313, 314, 316, and 317 by the decision tree 310. Note that classification targets included in the nodes 313, 314, 316, and 317 are different from each other, but any nodes may be the same as each other in terms of a classification result (category). For example, it is assumed that the classification target is a composite material, and the classification is determination of suitability for flame resistance. Then, the number of categories is 2, and each of the nodes 313, 314, 316, and 317 is either a suitable node or an unsuitable node.
When the decision tree 310 is constructed, in other words, when an upper node (a group of classification targets) is divided into two lower nodes, an explanatory variable that minimizes a sum of Gini coefficients of the lower nodes and a value thereof are selected as a dividing condition (classification condition). The Gini coefficient indicates a degree of mixing (degree of impurity) of a category (objective variable) of a classification target included in a node. For example, when categories of classification targets included in a certain node are the same, the Gini coefficient is 0. The node in which the Gini coefficient is 0 does not need to be classified and is a terminal of the decision tree 310. In addition, the depth (the number of branches) of the decision tree can be arbitrarily determined, and the Gini coefficient of the terminal node does not necessarily need to be 0. The depth of the decision tree is determined in consideration of, for example, the number of terminal nodes, the number of pieces of data included in each node, and an error ratio.
In
When the decision tree is used as a machine learning model, the importance calculation unit 114 calculates an importance using a Gini coefficient. For example, a difference between the Gini coefficient of an upper node and a sum of Gini coefficients of lower nodes is the importance. The importance calculation unit 114 may calculate the importance with reference to an index used in Boruta, Lasso, or the like in addition to the decision tree. The learning unit 112A generates the prediction model 121 using an explanatory variable with high importance.
Note that the explanatory variable for which the importance calculation unit 114 calculates an importance may be only the combustion information 134 or the material formulation information 132 and the combustion information 134. In addition, when the combustion information 134 includes an explanatory variable with high importance, the learning unit 112A may generate a prediction model using the explanatory variable and the material formulation information 132 as explanatory variables.
In step S31, the information acquisition unit 111 acquires material formulation information of a composite material, combustion information of the composite material, and flame resistance, and stores the material formulation information, the combustion information, and the flame resistance in the material information database 130A.
In step S32, the importance calculation unit 114 calculates an importance of an explanatory variable (attribute) included in the combustion information 134 (see
In step S33, the learning unit 112A selects an explanatory variable with high importance. In repetitive processes of steps S33 to S36, for example, the learning unit 112A selects an explanatory variable by sequentially adding one explanatory variable in descending order of importance.
In step S34, the learning unit 112A trains a machine learning model using teacher data using the explanatory variable (attribute) selected in step S33 and the material formulation information 132 as explanatory variables to generate the prediction model 121. The teacher data is acquired from the material information database 130A.
In step S35, the learning unit 112A evaluates performance of the prediction model 121 using data included in in the material information database 130A and not used in step S34.
In step S36, if the performance (prediction accuracy) calculated in step S35 is equal to or less than a predetermined threshold (step S35→NO), the learning unit 112A returns to step S33, and if the performance exceeds the threshold (step S35→YES), the learning unit 112A ends the learning process.
As performance evaluation of the flame resistance predicting device 100A (prediction model 121), an explanatory variable related to combustion with high importance was selected, and then the prediction model 121 using the selected information regarding combustion and the material formulation information 132 as explanatory variables and using the V-2 grade as an objective variable was evaluated.
In the selection of an explanatory variable related to combustion, 18 composite materials were prepared and subjected to a combustion test to acquire information regarding various types of combustion and suitability thereof for a V2 grade of UL94. A decision tree using information regarding combustion as an explanatory variable and using flame resistance as an objective variable was created, and an importance was calculated in accordance with
In order to divide composite materials included in the node 331 by a value of one explanatory variable, attention was paid to the number of times of drip among the explanatory variables. In a case where the composite materials were divided under a condition of whether or not the value is less than 4, a sum of the Gini coefficients of the lower nodes 332 and 333 was minimized. Since the node 333 includes only unsuitable composite materials (Gini coefficient is 0), division is unnecessary.
As for the node 332, in a case where division was performed under a condition of whether a drip viscosity was high or low, a sum of the Gini coefficients of the lower nodes 334 and 335 was minimized From the above results, in the present example, the number of times of drip and the drip viscosity were selected as explanatory variables with high importance.
In an evaluation experiment, 38 composite materials were prepared and subjected to a combustion test to acquire the number of times of drip and suitability thereof for a V2 grade of UL94. The material formulation information and the flame resistance are similar to those in the first evaluation experiment in the first embodiment. The prediction model 121 of a decision tree was generated using 27 composite materials out of the 38 composite materials as teacher data. Subsequently, prediction accuracy was evaluated using eleven pieces of verification data that had not been used as teacher data.
The flame resistance predicting device 100A predicts suitability for a standard of flame resistance from material formulation information of a composite material and combustion information. As the combustion information, there are time from flame contact to burning, flame spreading manner, flame color, and the like. By selecting an explanatory variable with high importance, flame resistance can be predicted with high accuracy with a small number of explanatory variables. In the experiment performed this time, it has been confirmed that the importance of the number of times of drip is high and the accuracy is higher than that of the prediction model using only the material formulation information as an explanatory variable.
<<Modification: Prediction from Combustion Information>>
The explanatory variable of the prediction model in the above-described embodiment includes material formulation information. The flame resistance predicting device may predict the flame resistance using a prediction model that does not include the material formulation information 132 and uses only the combustion information 134 as an explanatory variable.
The explanatory variables of the prediction model in the above-described second embodiment are an explanatory variable related to combustion information with high importance and material formulation information. The flame resistance predicting device may predict the combustion information from the material formulation information and predict the flame resistance from the predicted combustion information. Specifically, the flame resistance predicting device may predict the flame resistance from the material formulation information using two prediction models of a first-stage prediction model that predicts the combustion information from the material formulation information and a second-stage prediction model that predicts the flame resistance from the combustion information.
As combustion information that is an objective variable of the first-stage prediction model and is an explanatory variable of the second-stage prediction model, combustion information with high importance (degree of influence) with respect to flame resistance that is a prediction result may be used. Examples of the combustion information with high importance include the number of times of drip and a drip viscosity (see
The first-stage prediction model can be generated using teacher data using the material formulation information 132 of the material information database 130A (see
By using such a flame resistance predicting device, the flame resistance can be predicted from the material formulation information without acquiring the number of times of drip and a drip viscosity by preparing a composite material and performing a combustion experiment.
The material formulation information in the above-described embodiment is a ratio of a resin or an additive to be a material of a composite material, but may include information regarding another material. The material formulation information may include, for example, information regarding the kind of resin, the kind of additive, an addition amount, and a material structure. The material formulation information for the resin may include a weight average molecular weight and a number average molecular weight, a molecular weight distribution, a degree of copolymerization, a degree of crosslinking, a chemical structure, and various other physical property values. The material formulation information for the additive may include various physical property values such as a size and a structure. Note that the additive is a compound other than a polymer resin, the compound affecting characteristics of a polymer composite material to be produced, such as a filler, a plasticizer, a colorant, a flame retardant, an ultraviolet absorber, an antioxidant, or an elastomer. In addition, the material formulation information may include information (molding conditions) regarding a molding process of a composite material, such as a kneading process condition or a molding condition.
The above-described flame resistance predicting system predicts information regarding flame resistance, but may predict other characteristics (physical properties) at the same time. In addition to the flame resistance as an objective variable, it is possible to predict other characteristics at the same time as the flame resistance using a prediction model generated from teacher data including characteristics of a composite material, different from the flame resistance. For example, output of toughness and rigidity of a composite resin at the same time as the flame resistance can be utilized for formulation prediction that eliminates trade-off between these characteristics and the flame resistance.
