The halogen free flame retardant was incorporated into PC/ABS to improve its flame retardancy. The flame-retardant properties of the PC/ABS/DPA-SiN blends were estimated by limiting oxygen index (LOI) values and CONE Calorimeter, while thermal stabilities were investi- gated through thermo gvavimetric analysis (TGA). The PC/ABS/DPA-SiN blends were thermally degraded at 400℃ for different amounts of time and studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to better understand the degradation behavior of PC/ABS/DPA-SiN.展开更多

The flammability of the ternary composite was studied by cone calorimeter test (CCT). Synergistic effect on flame retardancy was found between silicone rubber and NMH. EVA/CFR ternary nanocomposite showed the lowest peak heat release rate (PHRR) and mass loss rate (MLR) among the samples of virgin EVA, EVA composites. The synergistic flame retardancy of silicone rubber and NMH in EVA system is attributed to the enhanced char layers in the condensed phase that prevents the heat and mass transfer in the fire.展开更多

Temperature sweep, frequency sweep, repeated creep test, force ductility test and bending beam rheological test were carried out to research the dynamic mechanical properties of asphalt mortars containing M-FRs; wheeltracking test, low-temperature bending test and freeze-thaw split test were used to study the road performances of asphalt mixtures containing M-FRs. The results show that high-temperature performances of the three flame retardant asphalt mortars improve greatly, while low-temperature cracking resistances decline. Both hightemperature performances and water stabilities of asphalt mixtures containing M-FRs are quite good and exceed the specification requirements. However, their low-temperature performances decline in different degrees. In summary, besides their good flame retardancy, the flame retardant asphalt mortars and mixtures also exhibit acceptable road performance.展开更多

On the other hand, the crystal structure of the continuous phaseAN-VDC-SMAS is not influnced by the dispersed phase CA.展开更多
