Here, a novel P/N/Si-containing ammonium polyphosphate derivative(APTES-APP) is synthesized from ammonium polyphosphate(APP) and silane coupling agent(3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane(APTES)via cation exchange, which is quite different in the chemical structure from APTES-modified APP for retaining silicon hydroxyls. APTES-APP is highly efficient for the epoxy resin. 8%(mass) APTES-APP imparts excellent flame retardancy to the epoxy resin, with a V-0 rating at the UL-94 test(1.6 mm)and an LOI value of 26%(vol). The peak heat release rate and total smoke production of the flameretardant epoxy resin are decreased by 68.1% and 31.3%, respectively. The synergy of P/N/Si contributes to the well-expanded char residue with a strong and dense surface layer, which is a very good barrier against heat and mass transfer. Besides, there is no significant deterioration in the mechanical properties of flame-retardant epoxy resin thanks to silicon hydroxyls forming hydrogen bonds with epoxy molecules. Meanwhile, other molecules can be grafted onto APTES-APP via these silicon hydroxyls, if needed.Briefly, this work has developed a new strategy for amino silane as flame retardants. In conjunction with a low-cost and simple preparation method, APTES-APP has a promising prospect in the high-performance flame-retardant epoxy.展开更多

The results show that MOC performed well as an inorganic flame-retardant in EP. When the content of MOC is 50%, the LOI of EP reaches 29.6% and mass of residual char reaches 9.6%. The flame retarde mechanism of MOC is due to the synergies of diluting, cooling, catalyzing char forming and obstructing effects.展开更多

The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscope and limiting oxygen index(LOI) experiments. Effects of AACHH content on LOI of epoxy resins/AACHH composite and flame retardant mechanism were investigated and discussed. Results show that AACHH exhibites excellent flame-retardant properties in epoxy resin(EP). When the content of AACHH was 47.4%, the LOI of EP reached 32.2%. Moreover, the initial and terminal decomposition temperature of EP increased by 48 ℃ and 40 ℃, respectively. The flame retarded mechanism of AACHH is due to the synergic展开更多

The structure of the product was determined by IR spectrometry. An aqueous solution of CHMG, melamine(MA) and phosphoric acid (PA) was compounded according to a certain molar ratio. After the wood samples were impregnated with the aqueous solution in certain condition, they were dried step by step, and were cured, then the amino resin flame retardants were obtained. We emphasized studying on the effects of the molar ratio of the three components to the flame retardancy. The oxygen index(OI) of the wood test samples and the leach resistance value(LRV) of the flame retardants were determined. While the molar ratio of CHMG: MA: PA was 5: 1: 6.5, and the loading agents ratio(RFR) was 1.92%, the OI of dahurian larch came up to 45, and the average of LRV was 49.59%. The results show that if the optimum molar ratio of CHMU: MA: PA is chosen and the wood is treated in special conditions, amino resin flame retardant with leach resistance to wood can be obtained.展开更多

Therefore,the combination of CBP with melamine in the flame retarded system can improve the flame retardancy greatly.展开更多

The crystal belongs to the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 10.3783(15), b = 11.2402(17), c = 12.1675(18) ?, a = 70.653(4), b = 82.908(4), g = 85.690(4)°, V = 1328.1(3) ?3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.239 g/cm^3, μ = 0.19 mm^(-1), F(000) = 532, the final R = 0.0640 and wR = 0.2090 for 3615 observed reflections with I > 2s(I). The cyclic dioxaphosphorinane ring in the molecule adopts a thermodynamically stable cis conformation, while the silatrane fragment forms a cage-like structure in which there exists an intramolecular Si?N donor-acceptor bond. In the crystal structure, centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked by pairs of N–H···O hydrogen bonds into dimers, generating rings with graph-set motif R22(8). Furthermore, a couple of O(7)–H(10)···O(3) hydrogen bonds were formed by O atom of P=O and H atom from hydroxyl in the solvent ethanol. Thermal property of the compound was also studied by means of thermogravimetry(TGA). The thermal analysis and preliminary fireproofing test show that the title compound has good flame retardance.展开更多

文摘Cyclotriphosphazene derivatives can effectively improve the flame retardancy and fire safety of epoxy resins(EPs)via their influence on the pyrolysis process.In this work,the effects of hexa(5-methyl-2-pyridinoxyl)cyclotriphosphazene(HMPOP)incorporation on the initial pyrolysis of an EP at 500–3500 K were studied using the ReaxFF method.The pyrolysis fragments,initial reaction pathways,and main products were identified for the EP and EP/HMPOP composites.The activation energies were derived by fitting the weight percentage curves for solid species during the pyrolysis reactions and the obtained values were in good agreement with experimental data.The initial EP pyrolysis reactions included four major decomposition modes,which primarily involved the cleavage of C–O and C–N bonds.The main pyrolysis products were H_(2)O,CO,C_(2)H_(4),and CH_(2)O.HMPOP bonded with the oxygen-containing fragments to form larger molecular fragments and reduced the amounts of C_(0)–C_(4) products,especially that of the harmful gas CH_(2)O.Thus,HMPOP promoted the formation of carbon clusters and reduced the generation of combustible gases,ultimately decreasing the capacity for fire propagation.

文摘In this work,a bio-based flame retardant(Cy-HEDP)was synthesized from cytosine and HEDP through a facile salt-forming reaction and embedded into epoxy matrix to improve the flame retardancy and smoke suppression performance.The product Cy-HEDP was well characterized by FTIR,^(1)H and^(31)P NMR and SEM tests.On the basis of the results,by adding 15 wt%Cy-HEDP,the EP15 can pass UL-94 V-0 rating,and the total smoke production(TSP)as well as total heat release(THR)can be decreased by 61.05%(from 22.61 to 8.7 m^(2)/m^(2))and 39.44%(from 103.19 to 62.50 MJ/m^(2))in comparison to the unfilled EP,reflecting the attenuated smoke toxicity and impeded heat generation.According to the analysis results of residual char,it can be concluded that Cy-HEDP possessed the ability to promote the formation of continuous and dense char layers,which would be a physical barrier to insulate oxygen and prevent heat feedback during the combustion of EP.This work provide inspiration towards developing bio-based flame retardant,probably extending the prospects to other polymeric material system.

文摘Although epoxy resin has been widely used in various fields,it still suffers from some problems including brittleness and flammability.In this study,a new phosphonic acid,N,N-bis(phosphomethyl)glycine(GDMP),was prepared by Mannich reaction with bio-based glycine and then a novel layered zirconium phosphonate(ZrGDMP)was synthesized using GDMP and zirconyl chloride hydrate as reactants.The chemical structure of ZrGDMP was well characterized by 1 H and 31P NMR,SEM,XRD and XPS.The effect of ZrGDMP on the flame retardancy,smoke suppression,strengthening and toughening performances of the epoxy matrix was investigated and evaluated.TGA results indicated that compared with pure EP,ZrGDMP-EP composites showed higher char yield due to the catalytic charring effect of ZrGDMP.The pure EP exhibited high flammability,while ZrGDMP-EP composites possessed excellent thermal stability and remarkable fire resistance.The PHRR,THR,and TSP values of 3wt%ZrGDMP-EP were obviously declined by 39.6%,40.2%,and 24.9%compared to these of pure EP.Moreover,the tensile and impact tests implied that the addition of ZrGDMP can significantly reinforce the toughness as well as the strength of EP in terms of higher impact strength(24.8 kJ/m^(2))and tensile strength(57.7 MPa),which was mainly contributed to the uniform dispersion of ZrGDMP within the EP matrix.
文摘The effects of a magnesium-based layered composite on the flammability of a phenolic epoxy resin(EP)are studied.In order to produce the required composite material,first,magnesium hydroxide,aluminum salt and deionized water are mixed into a reactor according to a certain proportion to induce a hydrothermal reaction;then,the feed liquid is filtered out using a solid-liquid separation procedure;finally,the material is dried and crushed.In order to evaluate its effects on the flammability of the EP,first,m-phenylenediamine is added to EP and vacuum defoamation is performed;then,EP is poured into a polytetrafluoroethylene mold,cooled to room temperature and demoulded;finally,the magnesium-based layered composite is added to EP,and its flame retardance is characterized by thermogravimetric analysis,limiting oxygen index and cone calorimetry.The X-ray diffraction patterns show that the baseline of magnesium-based layered composite is stable and the front shape is sharp and symmetrical when the molar ratio of magnesium to aluminium is 3.2:1;with the addition of magnesium-based layered composite,the initial pyrolysis temperature of EP of 10%,15%and 30%magnesium-based layered composite decreases to 318.2°C,317.9°C and 357.1°C,respectively.After the reaction,the amount of residual carbon increases to 0.1%,3.45%and 8.3%,and the limiting oxygen index increases by 28.3%,29.1%and 29.6%,respectively.The maximum heat release rate of cone calorimeter decreases gradually.The optimum molar ratio of Mg:Al for green synthesis is 3.2:1,and the NO_(3)-intercalated magnesium-based layered composite has the best flame retardance properties.
文摘The most common process to manufacture advanced composites is the costly autoclave.One of the out-of-autoclave alternatives is the low-cost vacuum assisted resin infusion(VARI)which produces quality parts with less pollution.Epoxy resin is a widely used composite matrix resin,but its high flammability limits its use as interior composite parts for vehicles.The usual flame retardant for epoxy involves halogen,which is effective but has high smoke toxicity.As a result,halogen-free flame retardant epoxy resin systems become dominant.In this paper,phosphorus flame retardant was combined with benzoxazine(BOZ)to produce synergistic effect and achieve satisfactory flame retardance,as well as mechanical improvement for the epoxy resin.Differential scanning calorimetry(DSC),dynamic mechanical analysis(DMA),thermal gravitational analysis(TGA),the cone calorimeter(CC),and limiting oxygen index(LOI)were used to characterize the resins.The results showed significant improvement on the flame retardance of the synergistically modified resins.Specifically,the carbon residue increased by 113.6%,and the char thickness increased by 6 to 7 times,compared to those of the flammable benchmark resin.The LOI reached 33 and passed the UL94 V-0 vertical burn rating.The modified resins also exhibited adequate stability and viscosity suitable for VARI processes.

文摘Flame retardant epoxy resins were prepared by a simple mixed method using ammonium aluminum carbonate hydroxy hydrate (AACHH) as a halogen-free flame retardant. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscope and limiting oxygen index(LOI) experiments. Effects of AACHH content on LOI of epoxy resins/AACHH composite and flame retardant mechanism were investigated and discussed. Results show that AACHH exhibites excellent flame-retardant properties in epoxy resin(EP). When the content of AACHH was 47.4%, the LOI of EP reached 32.2%. Moreover, the initial and terminal decomposition temperature of EP increased by 48 ℃ and 40 ℃, respectively. The flame retarded mechanism of AACHH is due to the synergic

文摘Quest for bio-based halogen-free green flame retardant has attracted many concerns in recent years.Herein a reactive functional flame retardant containing phosphorus VDP is synthesized from vanillin,9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphophene-10-oxide(DOPO)and phenol via a facile way.VDP is characterized with^(1)H NMR,^(31)P NMR,FTIR and Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry,and used as a new reactive flame retardant for bisphenol epoxy thermosets.Thermogravimetry analysis shows that when the VDP loading is only 0.5P%(based on phosphorus content),the residue increases from 14.2%to 21.1%at 750℃ in N_(2)compare with neat DGEBA.Correspondingly,the limit oxygen index increased to 29.6%,and flame retardancy reaches UL-94 V0 grade.Micro combustion calorimetry(MCC)and cone calorimetry analyses demonstrate that VDP can significantly lower flammability of the epoxy thermoset.With only 0.5P%of VDP,the heat release rate,total heat release rate and smoke production are reduced markedly.At the same time,the mechanical properties of the modified epoxy thermosets are also improved.The impact strength increases by 34%and the flexural strength increased by 23%,with 1.5P%of VDP.In short,VDP not only improves the flame retardancy,but also improves the mechanical properties of the epoxy thermosets.

文摘The development of efficient green flame retardants is an important way to realize more sustainable epoxy thermosets and downstream materials.In this work,a monoepoxide is synthesized through O-glycidylation of eugenol,and then reacted with DOPO(9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphophenanthrene-10-oxide)to obtain a new bio-based flame retardant,DOPO-GE.DOPO-GE is blended with a bisphenol A epoxy prepolymer exhibiting good compatibility and DDS(4,4′-diaminodiphenylsulfone)is used as the curing agent to afford epoxy thermosets.Although DOPO-GE leads to the reduced glass transition temperature of the thermosets,the storage modulus increases considerably.The DOPO-GE-modified thermosets exhibit the high thermal stability with the onset thermal decomposition temperature in nitrogen and air exceeding 300℃.When the phosphorus content in the thermoset is 1.0%,the residual yield of the thermosets at 750℃ in nitrogen increases from 13.9%to 30.6%,due to the increased charring ability.More interestingly,when the phosphorus content is only 0.5%,the limiting oxygen index is as high as 30.3%with UL94 V0 achieved.Cone calorimeter results reveals the significantly decreased heat release rate,total heat release,mass loss and total smoke production.Furthermore,DOPO-GE can notably improve the flexural strength,flexural modulus and fracture toughness,whereas the shear and impact strength are reduced to varied extents.In short,DOPO-GE can be obtained via a facile way,and shows the good flame-retardant effect on the epoxy thermosets with an application potential.
文摘The N-cyan-N′-hydroxymethyl guanidine(CHMG) was synthesized and the effect of various facts during reaction to the yield was studied. The structure of the product was determined by IR spectrometry. An aqueous solution of CHMG, melamine(MA) and phosphoric acid (PA) was compounded according to a certain molar ratio. After the wood samples were impregnated with the aqueous solution in certain condition, they were dried step by step, and were cured, then the amino resin flame retardants were obtained. We emphasized studying on the effects of the molar ratio of the three components to the flame retardancy. The oxygen index(OI) of the wood test samples and the leach resistance value(LRV) of the flame retardants were determined. While the molar ratio of CHMG: MA: PA was 5: 1: 6.5, and the loading agents ratio(RFR) was 1.92%, the OI of dahurian larch came up to 45, and the average of LRV was 49.59%. The results show that if the optimum molar ratio of CHMU: MA: PA is chosen and the wood is treated in special conditions, amino resin flame retardant with leach resistance to wood can be obtained.

文摘Caged bicyclic phosphate(CBP)and its dimelamine salt(PDS)were synthesized and added to epoxy resins to obtain the flame retarded epoxy resin composites.The flammability of the composites was characterized by the limiting oxygen index(LOI)and cone calorimeter tests.The LOI values of flame retarded composites increase consistently with the increase of flame retardant amounts,and they are almost the same when the loading of CBP is the same as that of PDS, although the phosphorus content of PDS is much lower than that of CBP.The total heat release increases in the order of CBP30/ER<PDS30/ER<PDS15/ER<CBP15/ER,whereas that of specific extinction area is CBP15/ER>CBP30/ER>PDS30/ER≌PDS15/ER.PDS exhibits more effective inhibition of oxidation of combustible gases.In the tests of thermogravimetric analyses(TG)and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR),it is found that the degradation of the composites is influenced greatly by the addition of flame retardants.By scanning electron microscopy(SEM),a thick and tight char-layer is observed for PDS30/ER,resulting from the interaction of nitrogen species with phosphorus species. Therefore,the combination of CBP with melamine in the flame retarded system can improve the flame retardancy greatly.
文摘The synthesis of reaction flame retarding unsaturated polyester resin and the flame retarding mechanism are investigated.By taking the synthesis flame retarding unsaturated polyester resin as a base material,glass fibers as reinforced material,under the condition of adding graphite or carbon black respectively,the composites were manufactured.The flame retarding and antistatic properties are also studied.In the experiment,bromide-bearing flame retarding resin decomposed under a high temperature.Compound HBr was set out and retarded or stopped the flame.High concentration of HBr gas wall was formed between gas and solid phrases,which decreased flame.The results show that antistatic property of carbon black is higher than that of graphite.Adding a threshed value of 1% carbon black into composite,the antistatic property is at its highest value.

文摘To enhance the thermal stability and flame retardancy of epoxy resin(EP),beta-cyclodextrin(β-CD)is successfully introduced into the layered tin phenylphosphonate(SnPP),which is incorporated into EP matrix for preparing EP/β-CD@SnPP composites.The results indicate that the addition ofβ-CD@SnPP obviously improve the thermal stability and residual yield of EP composites at higher temperature.When the amount ofβ-CD@SnPP is only 4 wt%,EP/4β-CD@SnPP composites pass V-1 rating,and LOI value is up to 30.8%.Meanwhile,β-CD@SnPP effectively suppress the heat release and reduce the smoke production of EP/β-CD@SnPP composites in combustion,and the peak heat release rate(PHRR),total heat release(THR),smoke production rate(SPR)of EP/6β-CD@SnPP composites reduce by 28.4%,33.0%and 44.8%by comparison with those of pure EP.The good flame retardancy and smoke suppression are ascribed to the synergistic effect of excellent carbon-forming capability and fire retardancy ofβ-CD@SnPP.

文摘To enhance the fire safety and wear resistance of epoxy,phosphorus-containing nickel phyllosilicate whiskers(FP-NiPS)were synthesized using a facile hydrothermal technology,with 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene as the organic modifier.The impacts of FP-NiPS on the thermal stability,flame retardancy,and mechanical and tribological properties of EP composites were explored.The findings demonstrated that 5 wt%FP-NiPS elevated the limiting oxygen index of the EP composite from 23.8%to 28.4%,achieving a V-0 rating during vertical burning tests.FP-NiPS could enhance the thermal stability of epoxy resin(EP)and facilitate the development of a dense and continuous carbon layer,thereby significantly improving the fire safety of the EP composites.The FP-NiPS led to an 8.2%increase in the tensile strength and a 38.8%increase in the elastic modulus of the EP composite,showing outstanding mechanical properties.Furthermore,FP-NiPS showed remarkable potential in enhancing the wear resistance of EP.The wear rate of 1 wt%FP-NiPS is 2.34×10^(−5) mm^(3)·N^(−1)·m^(−1),a decrease of 66.7%compared to EP.This work provides a novel promising modification method to enhance the fire safety,mechanical and wear resistance properties of EP.

文摘Five SO4^2-/TiO2-MXOY solid super acids(SSA:Cu@Ti:SSA,Zr@Ti:SSA,Fe@Ti:SSA,Mn@Ti:SSA,Mo@Ti:SSA)were successfully prepared by sol-gel method,and its chemical structure and element content were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD)analysis,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FHIR)and energy dispersive spectroscopy(EDS).Then,a compound flame retardant system containing SSA and ammonium polyphosphate/montmorillonite(AM)were was introduced into an unsaturated polyester resin(UPR)to enhance the flame retardance.The effect of SSA on the flammability and thermal stability of the UPR was evaluated by the limiting oxygen index(LOI),cone calorimeter te st(CCT)and thermogravimetric analysis(TGA).The LOI results showed that the flame retardance of the UPR composites was significantly improved with the addition of SSA.Moreover,their heat release rate(HRR),total heat release(THR),the smoke production rate(SPR)and CO and CO2 yield were much decreased.In addition,the initial decomposition temperature of UPR/AM/S SA was delayed,indicating that their thermal stability was increased,and the residual char of UPR/AM/SSA was also increa sed due to strong catalytic of SSA ability for esterification and dehydration.Furthermore,the microstructure of the residual char after combustion of the UPR composites was studied by the scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and it was found that the char layer structure was more continuous and dense after the addition of the SSA.In sum up,the synergistic effect between SSA and AM was the main factor for the great improvement of flame retardant of UPR composites.

文摘The title compound, 2-(3-silatranylpropylamino)-4-dichlorophenyl-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane-2-oxide(2(C_(20)H_(33)N_2O_6Psi)·C_2H_6O·CH_4O, Mr = 991.20), has been synthesized by the nucleophilic substitution reaction of 2-chloro-4-phenyl-5,5-dimethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphosphorinane-2-oxide with γ-aminopropylsilatrane, and its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystal belongs to the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 10.3783(15), b = 11.2402(17), c = 12.1675(18) ?, a = 70.653(4), b = 82.908(4), g = 85.690(4)°, V = 1328.1(3) ?3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.239 g/cm^3, μ = 0.19 mm^(-1), F(000) = 532, the final R = 0.0640 and wR = 0.2090 for 3615 observed reflections with I > 2s(I). The cyclic dioxaphosphorinane ring in the molecule adopts a thermodynamically stable cis conformation, while the silatrane fragment forms a cage-like structure in which there exists an intramolecular Si?N donor-acceptor bond. In the crystal structure, centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked by pairs of N–H···O hydrogen bonds into dimers, generating rings with graph-set motif R22(8). Furthermore, a couple of O(7)–H(10)···O(3) hydrogen bonds were formed by O atom of P=O and H atom from hydroxyl in the solvent ethanol. Thermal property of the compound was also studied by means of thermogravimetry(TGA). The thermal analysis and preliminary fireproofing test show that the title compound has good flame retardance.
