Bio-based phosphorus flame retardant achieves UL 94 V-0 in polyvinyl alcohol with good mechanical and UV performance. The bio-based PIN FR was produced by reacting phytic acid (phosphorus-rich and widely available in plant seeds) and ethylenediamine at room...
Lei Chen, SABIC A key challenge to Electric Vehicle (EV) battery pack design is the battery pack structure which includes battery cooling and cell separation to prevent propagation of the whole battery pack in case of failure of one cell. PIN FR performance...
Hannah Flerlage and Steven Beijer, University of Amsterdam SSbD (Safe and Sustainable by Design) is applied to redesign P FR for reduced environmental hazard using a computer-based approach, starting from the existing PIN phosphorus flame retardant Tri-iso-butyl...
pinfa calls for phosphorus to be identified as crucial for fire safety for all of the identified EU “Strategic” industries: batteries, renewable energy, electrical systems, circuit boards, electronic, power and data cables, aerospace. pinfa has submitted to the EU...
Industry expert input is invited for new Elsevier book on “Flame Retardant Selection for Polymers”, covering FR selection, formulation and regulations. Chapters cover FR formulation and processing in different types of polymer, applications for specific sectors...
