To improve the flame retardancy of polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), PBT-based flame retardant composites containing antimony trioxide nanoparticles (nano-Sb2O3) and brominated polystyrene (BPS) were investigated. Nano-Sb2O3, BPS, and PBT were dispersed by ball milling method to obtain composite powders, and the nano-Sb2O3/BPS-PBT samples were prepared by melt blending and injection molding methods. The flame retardancy of nano-Sb2O3/BPS-PBT composites was investigated. The results showed that nano-Sbs2O3 can obviously improve the flame retardancy of PBT-based composites. When the nano-Sb2O3/BPS-PBT composite contains nano-Sb2O3 with 5 wt% of mass fraction and BPS with 10 wt% of mass fraction, the nano-Sb2O3/BPS-PBT composite has excellent flame retardancy, in which the UL94 degree of flame retardancy achieves V-0 grade and the limit oxygen index is 28.3%.

Index Value

A novel formaldehyde-free flame retardant containing phosphorus and dichlorotriazine components (CTAP) for cotton fabrics was synthesized. As an active group, the dichlorotriazine could react with cotton fabric via covalent reaction. The addition of 20.7 wt% CTAP into the cotton fabric obtained a high limiting oxygen index value of 31.5%, which was 13.5% higher than the pure cotton fabric. The results of heat release rate, total heat release and effective heat combustion indicated that CTAP effectively imparted flame retardancy to cotton fabric by the cone calorimetry test. With respect to the untreated cotton fabrics, the treated cotton fabrics degraded at lower decomposition temperature and form a consistent and compact char layer, which could be observed by thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Compared to the untreated cotton fabrics, CTAP performed an effective role in flame retardancy for treated cotton fabrics. Meanwhile, it stimulated the formation of char and promoted the thermal stability of treated cotton fabrics during combustion.

The Impact

In this study, the commercial organophosphorus compound Pyrovatex CP New was used as a flame retardant for cotton fabric. Citric acid and a modified dihydroxy ethylene urea (DHEU) labelled Knittex FFRC were used as crosslinking to increase the flame-retardant laundering durability of treated cotton fabric. There have been some studies showing that Chitosan has the potential to improve flame retardancy and laundering durability of flame retardant treated cotton fabric. Thus, Chitosan, which has the molecular weight of 2.600 (water soluble) and the deacetylation degree of approximately 75%, is added to finishing solution for flame retardant treatment of cotton fabric. The padding-drying-curing method was used in this study. After treatment, all samples were examined to determine the chemical absorption level. The 45° flammability test characteristics and LOI value of untreated and treated samples after different number of washing cycle were determined to assess the flame retardancy of the treated fabric and its laundering durability. In addition, to assess the impact of this treatment on the mechanical strength and ecology of the fabric, the tensile strength and free formaldehyde content of the treated fabric were also evaluated
