Biobased polymeric PIN FR for epoxy

Biobased polymeric PIN FR for epoxy

Furfuralcahol (from furan extracted from biomass) reacted with polyphosphazene is tested as plasticising PIN FR in epoxy. Furfuralcohol has a heat-resistant oxygen heterocycle structure and a reactive hydroxyl group. In this study, it was reacted via the commercially...
Phosphorus silica PIN FRs synergy

Phosphorus silica PIN FRs synergy

Phosphorus and nitrogen functionalised silica showed to be an effective flame retardant in thermoplastic polyurethane. Silica was amine then propargyl functionalised, then reacted with a phosphorus and nitrogen containing derivate of pentaerythritol using alkine-azyde...
Macromolecular phosphorus nitrogen FR

Macromolecular phosphorus nitrogen FR

A branched chain dialkyl phosphinate – dialkyl ammonium PIN FR achieved UL 94 V-0 (1 mm) in polyamide PA6. The macromolecular PIN FR was prepared by reacting a commercial phosphorus containing cyclic acid anhydride (2-Methyl-1,2-oxaphospholan-5-one-2-oxide) with...
Polymeric iron phosphorus nitrogen PIN FR

Polymeric iron phosphorus nitrogen PIN FR

P-functionalised polyethyleneimine with iron salt achieved UL 94 V-0 in epoxy and improved mechanical properties. The commercial nitrogen containing polymer polyethylenimine (PEI) was reacted with phosphoric acid, then combined with ferric (Fe3+) salt, giving an iron...
Metal melamine phytate PIN FRs

Metal melamine phytate PIN FRs

Phytic acid (natural organophosphate), with melamine and metal ions, reduced fire, smoke and toxic gases in polyamide. Melamine (an organo-nitrogen molecule) was reacted with phytic acid (the biological phosphorus storage molecule of plants) to produce melamine...
