A novel bio-based ferric flame retardant effectively improving the flame retardancy and mechanical properties of polylactic acid
PTDF is prepared by a convenient ionic reaction of phytic acid, terephthalic dihydrazide and iron salts in water. It is a new type of high efficiency flame retardant. PTDF has high phosphorus and nitrogen content and good thermal stability, which can effectively improve the flame retardancy of PLA. PTFE is an anti-drip agent and is often used to improve the flame retardancy of PLA together with flame retardants. The addition of 4 wt% PTDF and 0.1 wt% PTFE made PLA reach V-0 flame retardant grade from non-flame retardant, and the oxygen index increased from 19.5 % to 24.5 %. With the increase of PTDF content, the performance of PLA improved significantly. The peak heat release rate (PHRR) and THR of PLA/6PTDF composites decrease by 27.4 % and 16.2 %, respectively, and the flame retardant index FRI increase by 232 %, showing excellent flame retardant efficiency. 6 wt% PTDF can increase the crystallinity of PLA by 25.9 %, tensile strength, maximum force required for impact fracture and notch impact strength by 12 %, 37 % and 129 %, respectively, and effectively improve the mechanical properties and toughness of the composite. The bio-based flame-retardant PLA/PTDF composites reported in this paper can be applied to office equipment.
