Abstract Egg shell are considered as waste and are generally dumped in the landfills. As the world is moving towards the sustainable way to recycle the waste and hence adding value to the waste produced. The egg shell is consisting of essential amino acids and properties which are still unexploited in various textile processing. The egg shell has proteineous matter which makes it a natural flame retardant. Cotton is the majorly used fibre in the overall textile industry. In the present study the egg shell waste was used to prepare an extract which is further applied on cotton fabric as a flame retardant. The characterization of the above egg shell powder shows it has amine group present at 1072.6 as well as at 873.56cm - C-Cl halo compound is present confirmed through FT-IR analysis. Two peaks were observed in DSC curves at 224.4 0 C and 254.5 °C. A LoI of cotton has increased to 36 at a lower concentration of 30% while that compared with the conventional cotton fabric.

A Si/P flame retardant was prepared using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and phosphoric acid (H3PO4). Original cotton fabric, treated fabric and its charcoal were examined by FT-IR, SEM, and EDS. Results showed that the TEOS/H3PO4 flame retardant has little affect on the cotton chemical structure and the surface morphology of cotton fiber. Main absorption peaks of the charcoal in the FT-IR are attributed to the P-O-C and the Si-O-Si bonds. And the surface of the charcoal was covered with white particles. EDS illustrates Si-O-Si bonds form on the surface and exhibit white particles in the SEM image.

A phosphaphenanthrene groups containing soybean oil based polyol (DSBP) was synthesized by epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) and 9,10-dihydro-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO). Soybean oil based polyol (HSBP) was synthesized by ESO and H2O. The chemical structure of DSBP and HSBP were characterized with FT-IR and 1H NMR. The corresponding rigid polyurethane foams (RPUFs) were prepared by mixing DSBP with HSBP. The results revealed apparent density and compression strength of RPUFs decreased with increasing the DSBP content. The cell structure of RPUFs was examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM) which displayed the cells as spherical or polyhedral. The thermal degradation and flame retardancy of RPUFs were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis, limiting oxygen index (LOI), and UL 94 vertical burning test. The degradation activation energy (Ea) of first degradation stage reduced from 80.05 kJ/mol to 37.84 kJ/mol with 80 wt% DSBP. The RUPF with 80 wt% DSBP achieved UL94 V-0 rating and LOI 28.3. The results showed that the flame retardant effect was mainly in both gas phase and condensed phase.

AbstractIn this study, some new biscarbazole derivatives were synthesized for the purpose of being used in OLED technologies and related areas. The following compounds: {1,2-bis(2-(3,6-diphenyl-9H-carbazole-9-yl) ethoxy)ethane (C-1), bis[2-(2-(3,6- diphenyl-9H-carbazole-9-yl) ethoxy)etyl]ether (C-2), bis[2-(2-(3,6-di(naphthalene-1-yl)-9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethoxy)etyl]ether (C-3) and bis [2-(2-(3,6-di(naphthalene-2-yl)-9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethoxy) ethyl]ether (C-4) were synthesized by Suzuki-Miyaura Cross Coupling reactions. The structural properties of the synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and LC-MS. The maximum product yields of 81.6% were obtained for C-4 biscarbazole derivatives. The optical properties were studied using UV-visible and temperature/excitation power density dependent photoluminescence (PL) techniques. The emissions were observed at green and yellow-red color spectral bands. By applying Gaussian fitting to the measured spectra, the superposition of the broad peaks was deconvoluted into two peaks. The origin of emissions was attributed to π- π* transition in aromatic compounds caused by intramolecular charge transfer from host carbazole to these compounds.

Abstract The 5’-adenylicacid (AMP-Na2) is modified to introduce unsaturated double bonds for photografting onto cotton fabrics together with L-cysteine (L-Cys) monomer to prepare synergistic flame-retardant cotton fabrics. The chemical structure of AMP-Na2/L-Cys monomers, the surface morphology, residual carbon morphology, thermal property and flame retardant property of photografted flame retardant cotton fabrics are analyzed. FT-IR and 1H NMR spectra verified the AMP-Na2 and L-Cys monomers with unsaturated double bonds. Scanning electron micrographs revealed the carbon residue of photografted fiber maintains a natural curled and fibers shape. TGA showed the major pyrolysis temperature of photografted cotton fabric declined by 42℃, with the weight loss reduced by 21.6%, proving that good charring effect. The continuous burning and smoldering time of photografted cotton fabric are decreased to 0s. The experimental results indicate that AMP-Na2/L-Cys monomers can reveal good durability and remarkable flame retardancy property to cotton fabrics via facile treatment of photografting.

Introducing bio-oil into phenolic foam (PF) can effectively improve the toughness of PF, but its flame retardant performance will be adversely affected and show a decrease. To offset the decrease in flame retardant performance, montmorillonite (MMT) can be added as a promising alternative to enhance the flame resistance of foams. The present work reported the effects of MMT on the chemical structure, morphological property, mechanical performance, flame resistance, and thermal stability of bio-oil phenolic foam (BPF). The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) result showed that the –OH group peaks shifted to a lower frequency after adding MMT, indicating strong hydrogen bonding between MMT and bio-oil phenolic resin (BPR) molecular chains. Additionally, when a small content of MMT (2–4 wt %) was added in the foamed composites, the microcellular structures of bio-oil phenolic foam modified by MMT (MBPFs) were more uniform and compact than that of BPF. As a result, the best performance of MBPF was obtained with the addition of 4 wt % MMT, where compressive strength and limited oxygen index (LOI) increased by 31.0% and 33.2%, respectively, and the pulverization ratio decreased by 40.6% in comparison to BPF. These tests proved that MMT can blend well with bio-oil to effectively improve the flame resistance of PF while enhancing toughness.

AbstractMethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(D,L-lactide-co-glycolide-co-ε- caprolactone) diblock copolymers, designated as MPEG-b-PDLLGCL, with different MPEG block lengths and DLL:G:CL ratios were synthesized via ring-opening polymerization in bulk using MPEG and stannous octoate as the initiating system. The diblock copolymers were characterized using a combination of FT-IR, 1HNMR, GPC and DSC. The percentage yields of the diblock copolymers were in excess of 90%. 1H-NMR analysis confirmed that the PDLLGCL blocks contained at least some random character. From their DSC curves, the diblock copolymers were amorphous in morphology. Their glass transition temperatures decreased as the MPEG block length increased and as G and CL units were incorporated.
