A novel flame-retardant composite was prepared by introducing a phosphorus-nitrogen flame retardant and DOPO-SiO 2 into PA6. DOPO-SiO 2 was synthesized successfully in a one-step process. PA6/OP1314/DOPO-SiO 2 achieved a UL 94 V-0 rating with an LOI value of 31%. The maximum mass loss rate of decomposition decreased significantly and char residue increased to 11.6 wt % compared with that of pure PA6. The compacted and dense char was formed due to the combination of the P-N flame retardant and DOPO-SiO 2 . The complex viscosity of PA6/OP1314/DOPO-SiO 2 increased considerably which tend to prevent the dripping phenomenon. The flame-retardant mechanism of PA6/OP1314/DOPO-SiO 2 was also investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR at different temperatures and the pyrolysis products were investigated by pyrolysis gas chromatography/ mass spectrum (Py-GC/MS). It was assumed that DOPO-SiO 2 and the hypophosphite of OP1314 possess excellent flame retardancy during the gaseous phase. Meanwhile, melamine and phosphate reacted with the pyrolytic products of PA6 to protect the matrix during the condensed phase. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym. Sci. 2016 , 133 , 42932.

Glass fiber reinforced polyethylene terephthalate (PET/GF) with enhanced flame retardancy was prepared with few-layer black phosphorus (BPs) for the first time. The performance of red phosphorus (RP) modified PET/GF was also investigated for comparison. Results show that PET/GF with 0.9 wt% BPs (PET/GF@BP-0.9) can eliminate the ignition of cotton by dripping. The addition of 2.7 wt% of BPs can make the PET/GF sample pass UL 94 V-0 classification, while a much higher of 6.3 wt% RP was needed to pass the same classification. Compared with neat PET/GF, the peak heat release rate (PHRR) and total heat release (THR) rate of PET/GF@BP-2.7 decreases ca. 52.5% and 34.8%, respectively. The studies of char residues reveal that BPs could act as a catalyst for char formation and the formed char could roughen the surface of GF and thus restrain the “wick effect.” Thermogravimetric analysis/infrared spectrometry shows that the addition of BPs significantly inhibited the release of gas-phase products. The attractive abilities of BPs as flame retardant provide a novel and effective way of PET/GF modification.

To improve the flame retardancy and solid content of waterborne polyurethane (WPU), AOT, and AOD series of WPU were synthesized and characterized. Carboxylic acid/nonionic composite units were used as hydrophilic groups, and OP550/THPO and OP550/DOPO-HQ combinations were used as flame retardant modifiers, respectively. The results revealed that the flame retardant-modified WPU emulsions still had excellent dispersion, stability, and fluidity. The UL-94 rating of modified WPU could reach V-0, and the AOD series samples had better flame retardancy than the AOT series, where AO 10 D 3 -WPU containing 3% DOPO-HQ had an limiting oxygen index value up to 30.5%. Besides, the peak heat release rate and total heat release of AO 10 D 3 -WPU were respectively decreased by 32% and 34%, compared with the control sample in the conical calorimetric test. The TGA, TG-IR, and SEM-EDS exhibited that the flame retardants functioned in the condensed phase by promoting carbon formation. The tensile strength of AOT series samples was excellent with a range of 15.84–27.47 MPa, while the elongation at break of AOD series samples was relatively high with a distribution of 850.8%–913.11%, which could be selected to suit the needs of different application scenarios.

Polycarbonate (PC) is a crucial engineering thermoplastic, but its impact strength is highly sensitive to notches, with even minor ones leading to significant reductions in mechanical performance. In this work, a crosslinked polysiloxane (VMQ) was synthesized and incorporated into PC to enhance both its toughness and flame retardancy. The introduction of VMQ greatly improved the notched impact strength and flame retardancy of PC. The addition of 5 wt% VMQ significantly enhanced the notched impact strength from 8.8 to 75.4 kJ/m 2 , representing an improvement of 756.8 %. Furthermore, the elongation at break and tensile toughness increased by 61.2 % and 46.5 %, respectively. Notably, even at −10 °C, the enhanced notched impact strength was almost fully retained. Additionally, the PC/5%VMQ composite achieved a UL-94 V-0 rating, with a limiting oxygen index (LOI) of 28.7 %, a 38.2 % reduction in peak heat release rate (PHRR), and a 13.9 % decrease in total smoke production (TSP). The toughening and flame-retardant mechanisms of VMQ were thoroughly investigated. This work provides an innovative approach to simultaneously improve the flame retardancy and toughness of PC.

Unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) composites with excellent flame retardancy and high mechanical property is a great challenge to its widely application. In present work, a highly efficient flame retardant (MA-DOPO) containing nitrogen, sulfur and phosphorus elements was designed via a nucleophilic substitution reaction of amino and aldehyde groups. For the UPR/MA-DOPO 15 composites, its tensile strength was 28.3 MPa, which was 19.9 % higher than that of neat UPR attributing to the formation of hydrogen bonds with UPR. It should be noted that tensile strength of UPR/MA-DOPO 20 composites reached the highest 39.6 MPa, showing a growth trend with the enhancement of incorporation amount of MA-DOPO. Meanwhile, the UPR/MA-DOPO 15 composites passed the UL-94 V-0 rating with a LOI of 27.0%, and the peak heat release rate (PHRR) and total heat release rate (THR) were reduced by 35.1% and 41.6% in cone calorimeter (CC) test comparing to that of neat UPR respectively. Moreover, the detailed flame-retarding mechanism of MA-DOPO was investigated by the thermogravimetric infrared spectroscopy (TG-IR), Raman spectrum, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (PY-GC/MS), in which the releasement of inert gas in gas-phase and the catalytic carbonation in condensed phase jointly taking effect.

Polycarbonate is a widely used engineering plastic material, but its limited flame retardancy has restricted its application in high-end fields such as aviation and railways. In this study, we propose a novel copolymerization/macromolecular blending strategy to produce a high-performance, fire-safe polycarbonate composite. By copolymerizing with polydimethylsiloxane oligomer and blending with macromolecular polyarylate, the resulting PC-BPDMS 5 /PITR successfully achieved a UL-94 V-0 rating and a high limiting oxygen index value of 34.2%. The peak heat release and total smoke release were significantly reduced by 45.2% and 27.4%, respectively, compared to pure PC. SEM, Raman, and XPS analyses confirmed the condensed-phase dominated flame-retardant mechanism, attributed to the char-forming ability of the polyarylate and polydimethylsiloxane segments. Polydimethylsiloxane segments can decompose to produce small molecules such as methane, and the left structure with silicon, which undergo cross-linking reactions with the substrate during combustion to promote char formation. The polyaromatic ring structure of PITR can also participate in the formation of a dense and stable char layer. The excellent compatibility between the polyarylate and the PC matrix, combined with the superior flexibility of polydimethylsiloxane, allowed the composite to maintain mechanical properties comparable to pure PC. Additionally, the increased molar volume resulted in a low dielectric constant for PC-BPDMS 5 /PITR. This work presents a promising approach for the development of high-performance polycarbonate composites.

Aluminum hypophosphite (AHP) was introduced into polylactide/intumescent flame retardant (PLA/IFR) systems by melt blending. The flame retardant and thermal properties of the PLA composites were investigated. The results suggest that a synergistic effect exists between IFR and AHP on the char formation and anti-dripping behavior of PLA composites. The PLA/IFR composites containing 10 wt% IFR can pass the UL-94 V-0 rating but the test is accompanied by heavy melt dripping. For the PLA/AHP a UL-94 V-2 rating is obtained for the same loading of IFR. However, the composites containing 7 wt% IFR and 3 wt% AHP pass the UL-94 V-0 rating with modified dripping behavior. Moreover, the char from combustion of PLA/IFR is flexible but of poor quality. That for PLA/AHP is brittle with many cracks. In contrast, that for PLA/IFR/AHP is strong and compact. Thus it can resist the erosion due to heat and gas formation and protect the inside of the matrix. In addition, AHP causes the crosslinking among APP, which promotes the char formation and prevents the melt dripping. This is the main reason for the good flame retardant properties of PLA composites. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

In order to meet the requirement in the fields with high flame resistance, the flame retardancy of epoxy resin (EP) must be ameliorated. Herein, a P/N/S-based flame retardant (PAD) was synthesized and used to prepare flame retardant EP. The combustion behavior, thermal property and flame retardant mechanism of the prepared EP thermosets were investigated. PAD induced the decomposition of EP thermoset in advance. Meanwhile, PAD enhanced the flame retardance of EP thermosets and reduced the fire risk of EP matrix. For example, with only 0.5 wt% phosphorus, EP/DDS/PAD-0.5 easily passed UL-94 V-0 rating and achieved a LOI value of 33.6%, together with the declined heat release rate (HRR). Impressively, the glass transition temperature (T g ) of EP/DDS/PAD thermosets dropped by only 3–13 °C, compared with that of EP/DDS. During combustion, PAD prompted the formation of an intumescent char layer in condensed phase, and exerted blowing-out effect in gaseous phase .

In order to develop a highly efficient flame-retardant system, a phosphonate-based ionic liquid named 1-vinyl-3-(diethoxyphosphoryl)-propylimidazolium bromide (IL) was synthesized and introduced into epoxy resin (EP). With only 4 wt% loading, EP/IL composite passed UL-94 V-0 rating, and its limiting oxygen index value increased to 34.9% from 25.9% for neat epoxy resin. The char yield of EP/IL-2 (2 wt%) was improved by 58.3%, and its peak of heat release rate was reduced by 65% compared with that of neat EP. The reason is that the presence of IL promoted the forming of a compact and stable phosphorus-rich residual chars. Unlike traditional additive-type flame retardant, it is very interesting that the introduction of IL changed the color and transparency of EP few and enhanced mechanical property of neat EP remarkably. Owing to the excellent compatibility and steric effect between IL and EP matrix, tensile strength was increased to 108.6 MPa for EP/IL sample from 84.9 MPa for neat EP, indicating the outstanding reinforcement effect of IL on EP composites.

A novel branched poly(phosphonamidate-phosphonate) (BPPAPO) oligomer was synthesized from the polycondensation of phenylphosphonic dichloride and trihydroxymethylphosphine oxide followed by end-capping with aniline in a one-pot synthesis. BPPAPO exhibited excellent flame-retardant efficiency in epoxy resins (EP). With only 5.0 wt % loading, the EP composite reached UL-94 V-0 rating with a limiting oxygen index (LOI) value of 35.5%. BPPAPO catalyzed the early degradation of EP and promoted the formation of more char residue. Glass transition temperatures were partially lowered. When 7.5 wt % BPPAPO was incorporated, the peak heat release rate and total heat release were decreased by 66.2% and 37.3%, respectively, with a delayed ignition and the formation of a highly intumescent char residue. Combination of gas-phase and condensed-phase flame-retardant mechanisms was verified.

A novel polymeric mono-component intumescent flame retardant poly(piperazine methylphosphonic acid neopentylglycol ester) (PPMPNG) was synthesized from methylphosphonic acid, piperazine and neopentyl glycol. Its chemical structure was detailed characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 13 C and 31 P solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. PPMPNG was incorporated into polyethylene (PE) and the flame retardancy, thermal properties and flame retardant mechanism of materials were investigated. The samples with the thickness of 1.6 mm passed UL-94 V-0 rating during vertical burning tests and the limiting oxygen index was 25.6% when 23 wt% PPMPNG was introduced. The results of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the addition of PPMPNG promoted the degradation and carbonization of materials at the beginning and improved the char residue amount and thermal stability of FR-PE at high temperature. Cone calorimeter tests indicated that the peak value of heat release rate was considerably reduced with the incorporation of PPMPNG. The flame retardant mechanism showed PPMPNG exerted isolation effect in condensed phased and quenched active free radical effect in gas phase. The combustion intensity was reduced and the flame was suppressed and even extinguished, thus a high efficiency for PE matrix was achieved.

In recent years, flame-retardant rigid polyurethane foam (RPUF) has once again captured the scholars’ attention due to the growing the growing demands in the field of building energy efficiency. However, the inherent flammability of RPUF is high and the complexities of its flame-retardant mechanisms remain inadequately understood. In this study, a modified biomass material, amino starch phosphate ester was successfully synthesized which was then combined with expandable graphite (EG) and incorporated into RPUF. The research delved into the optimal ratio and minimal flame-retardant additive required to achieve the stringent UL-94 V-0 rating, while also thoroughly investigating the flame retardancy and thermal properties of the composite system. The findings revealed that with just 6 wt.% of flame retardants, the RPUF achieved the UL-94 V-0 rating, with a 41.1 % reduction in peak heat release rate (pHRR) and a 23.7 % decrease in total heat release (THR). Additionally, it diminishes the flame's size and width, leading to quicker extinction, while also lowering the internal combustion temperature of the polyurethane, thereby delaying both preheating and combustion times. The synergistic interaction between amino starch phosphate ester and EG during combustion results in the formation of a dense, continuous char layer, effectively inhibiting the pyrolysis and combustion of RPUF. This study provides a theoretical foundation for the development of efficient flame-retardant systems for RPUF.
