In this paper, the effect of modified-silicon rubber (MSR) on thermal degradation and anti-droplet properties of melamine cyanurate (MCA) flame retardant polyamide 6 (PA6) composites was studied by using thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and vertical burning test. TG analyses indicated that modified-silicon rubber could markedly promote the condensation process of PA6/MCA/MSR composites compared with PA6/MCA composites, and the char residue of PA6/MCA/MSR composites at 600¡æwas much higher than that of PA6/MCA composites. DTGcurves showed that MSR could slow down the rate of degradation of PA6/MCA composites. More importantly, there was no melt-drip produced when PA6/MCA/MSR composites was burning. It was concluded that MSR increase the thermal stability of composites and could effectively prevent the formation of melt drip.

Plasticized–Poly(vinyl chloride) (P-PVC) for cables and insulation requires performances related to outdoor, indoor and submarine contexts and reduction of noxious release of HCl-containing fumes in case of thermal degradation or fire. Introducing suitable nanomaterials in polymer-based nanocomposites can be an answer to this clue. In this work, an industry-compliant cable-grade P-PVC formulation was added with nanostructured materials belonging to the family of Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS). The effects of the nanomaterials, alone and in synergy with HCl scavenging agents as zeolites and hydrotalcites, on the thermal stability and HCl evolution of P-PVC were deeply investigated by thermogravimetric analysis and reference ASTM methods. Moreover, hardness and mechanical properties were studied in order to highlight the effects of these additives in the perspective of final industrial uses. The data demonstrated relevant improvements in the thermal stability of the samples added with nanomaterials, already with concentrations of POSS down to 0.31 phr and interesting additive effects of POSS with zeolites and hydrotalcites for HCl release reduction without losing mechanical performances.

Sem Investigation

Copolymer of p-phenylenediamine and bispirocyclic pentaerythritol diphosphate was synthesized and characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR. This polymer was used to prepare epoxy resin/SPDA composites. Thermal stability of SPDA and epoxy/SPDA composites were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and their flammability were investigated by the LOI test. TGA results showed that the addition of SPDA improved the char residue of epoxy resin. SEM investigation showed that the residual chars have a honeycomb-like structure, indicating an intumescent flame retarding effect of SPDA in composites. In addition, all of above results confirmed that accelerate carbonization play a key role in improving flame retardancy of epoxy resin.

The flammability characteristics and thermal stability were studied based on LOI, TG analysis and SEM tests. The results revealed that the additive flame retardant enhanced the flame retardancy of PA. The TG analysis showed that the thermal stability of flame-retardant PA fibers was better than PA fibers, because flame-retardant PA fibers got higher residue content and thermal degradation activation energy. The SEM images indicated the flame retardant residues were infusible, which can impede the molten dropping of PA fibers during combustion.

A novel intumescent flame retardant (IFR), melamine modified enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (MEHL), was synthesized and well characterized by FTIR and TGA. The results showed that the decompose temperature of MEHL is much higher than that of enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (EHL). In order to improve flame retardancy and dripping resistance of EPDM, MEHL and microencapsulated red phosphorus (MRP) were added into EPDM as IFR system. The flame ability and thermal stability of IFR and EPDM composites were investigated by UL-94 vertical burning test and LOI measurements. The results indicated that FV-0 was reached and the LOI value was 35 when per hundred rubber (phr) together with 12 phr MRP and 50 phr EHLM were added. SEM photos showed that the char residue was continuous, and a barrier between flame and rubber was formed, while there were also small holes in its surfaces. On all accounts, EHL used as a carbonization agent instead of petroleum chemicals, such as pentaerythritol, was more environmental friendly and beneficial to economy.

AbstractDisposal of plastics in the form of discarded scrap or waste is an environmental nightmare to the developed and under-developing countries. In this sense, modern technologies are every day growing; meanwhile recycling wastes are taking credit for higher performance to pave the way towards a cleaner planet. Recycling of polymer blends is associated with serious complexities in finding appropriate additives acting in each phase or at the interface of non-miscible polymers to attain materials with higher properties. A flame retardant system was designed and intended to play the role of typical recycled flame retardant polypropylene/polyamide (PP/PA6) blends by incorporation of two kinds of talc, sepiolite, and a phosphorus-based flame retardant. First, two types of talcs having different physical properties were added to PA6 in combination with melamine cyanurate (MC) or melamine pyrophosphate (MPP) to find the one acting as a barrier during combustion. Then, high-aspect-ratio talc that appeared more effective in the first-stage survey was then used in combination with MC, MPP and ammonium polyphosphate (APP) together with a compatibilizer for PP/PA6 blend. Then, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), microcalorimeter of combustion (PCFC) and cone calorimeter measurements were performed to study thermal degradation and flammability behavior. The results are indicative of successful formulation of flame retardant system containing the aforementioned precursors to be intended to the recycled PP/PA6 blends.

The application of jatropha oil as alternative lubricant basestock has emerged recently. However, the resistance to oxidation and thermal stability of this oil become a concern to its application as lubricant. In this study, the oxidation and thermal degradation of crude jatropha oil (CJO) have been studied. The oxidation of the CJO was investigated by air bubbling method. The viscosity and functional group changes due to oxidation were studied before and after oxidation test. The thermal stability of CJO was investigated by using Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) method in O2 and N2 gases environment. Jatropha oil was found oxidized by autoxidation mechanism produces high molecular species which capable to increase viscosity of the oil. The TGA results shows that CJO thermally stable in the temperature below 168°C in O2 gas environment and below 225°C in N2 gas environment.

A novel flame retardant system, embraced shell (S) and histidine diphosphate (H) as intumescent flame retardant developed in the Department of Chemical, Biological and Aerosol Hazards laboratory, was added to the epoxy resin and examined. The influence of flame retardant system on the thermal stability was assessed based on thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Moreover, the flame retardant components were characterized by grain size distribution. It was found that the incorporation of the developed flame retardant system caused the formation of thermal stable char, which may inhibit the burning process.

Ullmann Coupling

A new ether-linked polymer (PE-A) was synthesized via the polycondensation of 1,4-dibromo-2,5-difluorobenzene with biphenol (A). The new polymer has shown a good solubility in non-polar solvents, as well as moderate thermal stability (up to 300 °C). The parent PE-A was subjected to post-functionalization modification applying the Ullmann-coupling reaction on the C-Br bonds of PE-A, where the bromo-sites have been replaced by aniline-linked moieties. The resulting polymer (PE-Ani-A) shows slight solubility in several solvents. Its thermal stability was enhanced by 36% when compared with PE-A. To ensure the significant impact of the inclusion of the aniline group on thermal stability, a thermal degradation kinetics study was performed and the Coats-Redfren and Broido theoretical models were applied to explore the degradation process. The calculated activation energy for PE-Ani-A degradation was thereby found to be higher than that of PE-A, which indicates the higher thermal stability of PE-Ani-A. For further insights into the thermal stability of the polymers, the limited oxygen index (LOI), which represents the flame-retardant property of the polymers, was calculated. The results indicate that PE-A is a promising candidate as a flame-retardant polymer (LOI = 46.7), since it has a high bromo-content. On the other hand, PE-Ani-A has a lower LOI although it has a higher thermal stability.
