The effects of brominated flame retardant which composed of decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) and antimonous oxide (AO) on long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene (LGFPP) were investigated by means of limiting oxygen index (LOI), vertical burning (UL-94), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), and mechanical properties. With the increase of DBDPE-AO content, the LOI values of DBDPE-AO/LGFPP composites increased from 21 to 27.6, and when the content of DBDPE-AO was 16wt%, the composites passed the V-0 rating in UL-94 testing. The experimental results showed that the brominated flame retardant improved flame retardancy of LGFPP, which was proved by the TGA testing. Whats more, the mechanical properties of composites even improved compared with pure LGFPP.

An efficiently brominated flame retardant which composed of decabromodiphenyl oxide (DB) and antimonous oxide (AO) was used to flame retardant for long glass fiber reinforced polypropylene (LGFPP). In order to investigate the thermal stability, flame retardancy and mechanical property of DB-AO/LGFPP composites used by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), limiting oxygen index (LOI), vertical burning (UL-94) and mechanical property tests. The results showed that brominated flame retardant improved flame retardancy of LGFPP efficiently can be proved by TGA, and had less affected on mechanical properties.
