Influence of melt behaviour on the flame retardant properties of ethylene copolymers modified with calcium carbonate and silicone elastomer

This work describes a halogen-free flame retardant material consisting of a polar ethylene copolymer, calcium carbonate and silicone elastomer. The flame retardant properties when using poly(ethylene-co-methacrylic acid) (EMAA) and poly(ethylene-co-butyl acrylate) (EBA) as the copolymer have been compared. Rheological measurements showed an increase in complex viscosity above 250 °C due to ionomer formation between acidic groups in the polymer and calcium ions. The increase in viscosity occurs at lower temperatures with the EMAA material and the increase is stronger. This has great impact on the fire performance, as shown with cone calorimetry and dripping test. In order to further elucidate the flame retardant mechanism in detail, thermogravimetric analysis and infrared spectroscopy have been used. The influence of the amount of comonomer and melt flow ratio of the polymer is also commented.     

聚对苯二甲酸丙二醇酯的无卤阻燃化改性

聚对苯二甲酸丙二醇酯作为新型聚酯材料,具有非常优良的性能,但其易燃性很大的限制了它的应用范围。为了提高对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯的阻燃性能,本文以无卤膨胀型EPFR-300A为阻燃改性剂,马来酸酐接枝聚烯烃(POE-g-MAH)弹性体为增韧剂,对聚对苯二甲酸丙二醇酯树脂(PTT)进行阻燃改性。通过热重分析仪(TGA)、示差扫描量热仪(DSC)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、力学性能等技术手段研究了阻燃剂和增韧剂对PTT树脂力学、热学和阻燃性能的影响。结果表明,增韧剂POE和POE-g-MAH的添加提高了PTT树脂的综合力学性能。当质量分数相同时,POE-g-MAH对PTT树脂的增韧效果要优于POE,且当POE-g-MAH质量分数为7%时,综合力学性能最佳。当添加相同质量分数增韧剂,EPFR-300A质量分数达到20%时,阻燃PTT材料阻燃性能最佳,极限氧指数(LOI)达到28.0%,垂直燃烧阻燃等级达到UL94 V-0级。EPFR-300A阻燃剂与PTT树脂间相容性良好,可以有效地促进PTT树脂成炭并提高材料的阻燃性能。

Solubilities,thermostabilities and flame retardance behaviour of phosphorus-containing flame retardants and copolymers

Thirteen phosphorus-containing flame retardants were synthesized in this work. The solubilities of flame retardant [(6-oxide-6H-dibenz[c,e][1,2]oxaphosphorin-6-yl)-methyl]-butanedioic acid (DDP) in selected solvents are measured. TGA measurements of the 13 phosphorus-containing flame retardants were carried out and thermal stabilities of three flame-resistant PET (FRPET) resins were investigated. A FRPET incorporated by DDP with terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol reported in literature was also discussed and compared. The thermal stability of the FRPET is improved by the incorporation of phosphorus-containing flame retardants. The LOI values of all phosphorus-containing polyesters are higher than 27%. The improvement of the flame-resistant ability is due to the formation of the char that is not only caused by the existence of phosphorus elements in the resin but also by the relative large number of carbon atoms of the phenyl group in the flame retardants.     

A novel halogen-free flame retardant for glass-fiber-reinforced poly(ethylene terephthalate)

In order to prepare halogen-free flame-retardant glass-fiber-reinforced poly(ethylene terephthalate) (FR-GF-PET), a novel flame retardant containing three flame-retardant elements, P, N and S, was synthesized by melt condensation reaction. Its chemical structure was characterized by FT-IR and ¹H NMR spectra. FR-GF-PET was prepared by melt-mixing the flame retardant with GF-PET. The effects of the flame retardant on the flammability and thermally decomposing behaviors of GF-PET were studied via LOI, UL-94 and TGA tests. The results showed that despite a negative effect on the thermal stability of GF-PET, the incorporation of the flame retardant improved the flame retardancy of GF-PET largely. The LOI values of GF-PET increase linearly with the increase of flame retardant content. The GF-PET passed the V-0 rating in UL-94 tests when 15 wt% of the flame retardant was added to GF-PET. An interesting phenomenon was found, that is, with the increase of flame retardant content, the flame retardancy of the system increased but the char yield decreased, which was explained according to the evidences of XPS tests and the kinetics of thermally decomposing reaction.

A New Nano‐Structured Flame‐Retardant Poly(ethylene terephthalate)

A modified nano‐hydrotalcite was used as inorganic flame‐retardant fillers for poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) polymers. A flame‐retardant compound was obtained from layered hydrotalcite (LDH) dispersed in brominated polystyrene (PBS) solution and then solvent evaporation from the dissolved PBS samples. The compound of PBS/LDH was characterized by X‐ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and was found to have high aspect ratio LDH dispersed in the PBS matrix. Flame‐retardant PET composite was prepared by melt‐compounding the flame‐retardant compound of PBS/LDH and PET. Improvement in the fire retardancy of the nano‐flame‐retardant PET composite obtained was found by measuring the oxygen index. The nanostructure of flame‐retardant PET composite was chirecterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of flame‐retardant PET composite. The mechanical properties of the flame‐retardant PET nano‐composite were also characterized.     

Synergistic effects of ammonium polyphosphate and red phosphorus with expandable graphite on flammability and thermal properties of HDPE/EVA blends

In this work, the flame‐retardant high‐density polyethylene/ethylene vinyl‐acetate copolymer (HDPE/EVA) composites have been prepared by using expandable graphite (EG) as a flame retardant combined with ammonium polyphosphate (APP) and red phosphorus masterbatch (RPM) as synergists. The synergistic effects of these additives on the flammability behaviors of the filled composites have been investigated by limiting oxygen index, UL‐94 test, cone calorimeter test, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier‐transform infrared (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that APP and RPM are good synergists for improving the flame retardancy of EG‐filled HDPE/EVA composites. The data from TGA and FTIR spectra also indicate the synergistic effects of APP and RPM with EG considerably enhance the thermal degradation temperatures but decrease the charred residues of the HDPE/EVA/EG composites because the flame‐retardant mechanism has changed. The morphological observations present positive evidences that the synergistic effects take place in APP and RPM with EG in flame‐retardant EG‐filled HDPE/EVA/EG composites. The formation of stable and compact charred residues promoted by APP and RPM with EG acts as effective heat barriers and thermal insulations, which improves the flame‐retardant performances and prevents the underlying polymer materials from burning.

Synergistic fire retardancy of colemanite, a natural hydrated calcium borate, in high-impact polystyrene containing brominated epoxy and antimony oxide

This study explores for the first time the synergistic fire retardant action of natural hydrated calcium borate, namely the mineral colemanite, which partially replaces antimony oxide in brominated flame retardant high-impact polystyrene compounds. Various antimony oxide to hydrated calcium borate ratios were employed keeping the brominated flame retardant additive at a constant loading level. With partial colemanite substitution for antimony oxide, lower heat release rate, total heat evolved and fire growth index was obtained under forced flaming fire conditions. Synergism was also seen in limiting oxygen index along with maintained V-0 classification in UL-94 tests. Regarding fire behaviour and flammability ratings, a large antimony oxide to calcium borate ratio provided ultimate fire retardant performance whereas magnitudes of synergism in average heat release rate and total heat evolved tend to be higher towards a smaller ratio. Effective heats of combustion and structural/morphological characterization of fire residues ascribed the underlying mechanism demonstrated by hydrated calcium borate to the formation of a consolidated residue that co-operates with the dominant gas phase fire retardancy originating from bromine-antimony synergism. It is thus proposed that coupling is achieved between gas phase and condensed phase modes of action increasing the overall fire retardant effectiveness. Along with enhanced fire retardancy, thermal stability and mechanical properties were satisfactorily maintained with the use of hydrated calcium borate at a variety of loading levels in compounds.     

Experimental study on the thermal behaviors of lithium-ion batteries under discharge and overcharge conditions

Iron oxide modified montmorillonite (MMT) as flame retardant was used to polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and the flame retardant and smoke-suppressant properties of the PVC were investigated by the smoke density rating and cone calorimeter tests (CONE), and the thermal degradation behaviors of PVC were studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TG) in air atmosphere. The activation energies for the first stage of thermal degradation were obtained following the equation of Kissinger. The mechanical properties testing resultant data showed that iron oxide modified MMT had little effect on the tensile strength of the sample. The CONE result indicated that iron oxide modified MMT could reduce the heat release rate in flame retardant PVC: a more compact char residue formed on the surface of the sample including iron oxide modified MMT during the combustion process. The TG result showed that the sample with modified iron oxide MMT had higher thermal stability than the pure PVC. Besides, the PVC treated with modified MMT showed high activation energy.

Synergistic effect of graphene oxide and boron-nitrogen structure on flame retardancy of natural rubber/IFR composites

In this paper, GO-BN(graphene oxide grafted boron nitride) was synthesized from graphene oxide and boron nitride by silane coupling agent KH550. Furthermore, GO-BN and intumescent flame retardant (IFR) were added into natural rubber (NR) simultaneously to improve its flame retardancy. The structure of GO-BN was studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The analysis showed that GO-BN was successfully synthesized. The enhanced flame retardancy performance of flame retardant natural rubber (FRNR) was evaluated by limiting oxygen index (LOI) and UL-94 tests. Moreover, the combustion action of FRNR in fire was evaluated by cone calorimetry. Notably, the results showed that the sample with a GO-BN content of 12 phr showed the best flame retardancy performance. The heat release rate (HRR) and total heat release rate (THR) were remarkably decreased by 42.8% and 19.4%, respectively. Carbon residues were analyzed by infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy, which showed that GO-BN and IFR had a synergistic catalytic effect. The formation of compact thermal stable carbon layer after combustion was the key to protect engineering materials from combustion.     

Synthetic Hydromagnesite as Flame Retardant. A Study of the Stearic Coating Process

A synthetic hydromagnesite obtained from an industrial by-product rich in magnesium oxide was employed and evaluated as a non-halogenated flame retardant for poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate). The filler was characterized with different techniques (such as specific surface area, TGA, particle morphology and size measurements, WAXS). Significant differences were found between the synthetic hydromagnesite and the natural one. Synthetic hydromagnesite was coated with stearic acid and the effectiveness of the coating process was studied by the dye adsorption method and sedimentation volume measurements. The amount of coating agent ranged from 1 to 4.5%. This factor was found to have a significant effect on the thermal decomposition behaviour of the filler. A poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (27% of VA) was filled with the coated synthetic grades of hydromagnesite as well as with two commercial flame retardants and different physicochemical properties were evaluated, including their flame retardant effect.

Mechanical and fire retardant properties of EVA/clay/ATH nanocomposites - Effect of particle size and surface treatment of ATH filler

Mechanical and flame retardant properties of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer/organoclay/alumina trihydrate (ATH) nanocomposites have been studied. ATH with different particle sizes, ATH1 (2.2-5.2 μm) and ATH2 (1.5-3.5 μm), and three different surface treatments, uncoated, fatty acid coated and silane coated, have been used. A synergistic effect was observed in EVA/organoclay/ATH nanocomposites with the total heat evolved (THE) and the heat release rate (HRR) lower than that of EVA/ATH composite. It was also found that mechanical and flame retardant properties are affected in different ways by the particle size and the surface treatment of ATH fillers. Improvements in tensile and flame retardant properties were observed in nanocomposites when uncoated ATH fillers and fatty acid coated ATH2 filler were used. On the other hand, silane coating on ATH1 and ATH2 improves limiting oxygen index (LOI) and leads to higher t_ignition and the best char stability after cone calorimeter test.     

Study on the thermal degradation behavior and flame‐retardant property of polylactide/PEDPP blends

A phosphorus‐containing polyester, poly (ethylene diglycol phenylphosphinate) (PEDPP) was synthesized from phenylphosphonic dichloride and ethylene diglycol. The structure of PEDPP has been determined by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization‐time of flight‐mass spectrometer. A series of polylactide (PLA) blends with various content of PEDPP as flame retardant was prepared by direct melt compounding; the PLA/PEDPP blend is partially miscible. PEDPP is an effective flame retardant for PLA. The limiting oxygen index values increased from 19.7% for pure PLA to 29.0% for the blend containing 10wt% PEDPP. Thermogravimetric analysis‐FTIR analysis indicated that the PEDPP affected the pyrolytic decomposition process of PLA, which is established by the change of the pyrolytic decomposition rate and the gross mass of gaseous fuel formation. The pyrolytic decomposition activation energies of PLA and PLA/10%PEDPP were estimated via Flynn–Wall–Ozawa method. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Flammability Tests and Investigations of Properties of Lignin-Containing Polymer Composites Based on Acrylates

In this paper flammability tests and detailed investigations of lignin-containing polymer composites’ properties are presented. Composites were obtained using bisphenol A glycerolate (1 glycerol/phenol) diacrylate (BPA.GDA), ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA), and kraft lignin (lignin alkali, L) during UV curing. In order to evaluate the influence of lignin modification and the addition of flame retardant compounds on the thermal resistance of the obtained biocomposites, flammability tests have been conducted. After the modification with phosphoric acid (V) lignin, as well as diethyl vinylphosphonate, were used as flame retardant additives. The changes in the chemical structures (ATR-FTIR), as well as the influence of the different additives on the hardness, thermal (TG) and mechanical properties were discussed in detail. The samples after the flammability test were also studied to assess their thermal destruction.
