Flame Retardant Properties

In this study, bamboo pulp is utilized as the main raw material for the production of compression-molded, fiber-based decorative wallboard panels which have three-dimensional geometric structure and possess environmentally compatible “green” flame retardant properties. The effectiveness of several flame retarding agents, including the Al(OH)3 single component system, the Al(OH)3/Mg(OH)2 mixed system and the Al(OH)3/Mg(OH)2/Zinc Borate mixed system are examined in terms of the resulting flame resistance, physical properties and oxygen indexes of the fiber-based decorative wallboard. The results show that the Al(OH)3/Mg(OH)2/Zinc Borate multicomponent mixed system is the most ideal flame retardant system for such applications. Results indicate that the optimal formulation consist of: 30% Mg(OH)2/25% Al(OH)2 /15% Zinc borate (relative mass ratio). Under such conditions, the oxygen index of the fiber decorates wallboard is 34.4, and the level of formaldehyde release reaches a value of E0.

AbstractA DOPO (9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphen-anthrene-10-oxide)-based halogen-free flame retardant (ODOPM-CYC) was synthesized and incorporated in rigid polyurethane foam (RPUF). The structure of ODOPM-CYC was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), 1H NMR and 31P NMR. The effects of ODOPM-CYC on the flame resistance, mechanical performances, thermal properties and cell structure of RPUF were also investigated. The results showed that the incorporation of ODOPM-CYC strikingly enhanced flame retardant properties of RPUF. The flame retarded RPUF acquired a limiting oxygen index (LOI) value of 26% and achieved UL-94 V-0 rating with the phosphorus content of 3 wt%. The smoke production rate (SPR) also showed an obvious decrease and total smoke release (TSR) was 39.8% lower than that of neat RPUF. Besides, the results demonstrated that the incorporation of ODOPM-CYC provided RPUF better thermal stability but did not show any obvious influence on its thermal conductivity.

Textile Coating

Among the various advanced materials, flame-retardant cellulosic textiles are important as they directly relate to human health and hazards. The use of environmentally friendly flame-retardant coatings is currently one of the major concerns in the textile coating industry. In this work, acrylic acid was grafted onto the surface of cotton using plasma technology to enhance the attachment of acrylate phosphate monomer. Surface analyses, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) and attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), were carried out to characterize the coating. Textile properties such as wettability and mechanical properties of untreated and treated cotton samples were investigated. A laundering test was also performed to predict the durability of the finishing. The outcomes revealed that acrylic acid-grafted samples treated with acrylate phosphate monomer have good flame-retardant properties.

Flame Retardant Properties

ABSTRACTZinc borate has long been used as a protector for wood products due to its fungicide, insecticide and flame retardant properties. In this initial study, its capacity as a flame retardant when applied to Eucalyptus grandis wood is evaluated; micronized zinc borate, synthesized from zinc oxide and boric acid in our laboratory was used. The methodology used in the study is the use of the Vandersall tunnel, which allowed analyzing parameters such as the flame spread, the carbonization index, the carbonization area and the wood weight loss. The results show a remarkable improvement in these parameters after the application of micronized zinc borate. For the longest fire exposure time, the percentage decrease of each evaluated parameter is, for tangential and radial plane respectively: 31.27-43.00% for flame spread, 36.66-40.86% for carbonization area, 33.01-52.49% for carbonization index and 19.86-57.80% for mass loss.

This paper is aimed at assessing the fire retardancy and thermal stability of intumescent flame retardant (IFR) containing ammonium polyphosphate (APP), pentaerythritol (PER), and melamine (MEL). Zinc borate (ZB) was added at the loading of 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%, and 12% by weight of IFR. The sizes of investigated ZB fall in 3 ranges: 1-2 μm, 2-5 μm, and 5-10 μm. The performance of APP/PER/MEL was investigated by using thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), cone calorimeter test, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive spectrometry. The results obtained from the above experiments show that the incorporation of ZB can improve the fire protection performance. A 77% decrease in total smoke production and 84.6% decrease in total heat release were achieved for the addition of 2 wt% ZB (2-5 μm) in the IFR coating. TGA results indicate an increased amount of char residue. Compared to the control IFR coating, the char residue of IFR containing 2 wt% ZB (2-5 μm) has increased approximately 1.5-fold, 10-fold, and 25-fold, at 600°C, 700°C, and 800°C, respectively. The effective char formation results in excellent smoke suppression. Regarding smoke suppression performance, the order for smoke density is IFR/ZB (2-5 μm) < IFR/ZB (5-10 μm) < IFR/ZB (1-2 μm), regardless of investigated loading levels. The decline of smoke suppression performance for IFR/ZB (5-10 μm) and IFR/ZB (1-2 μm) is believed to be due to the poor char formation, as a result of a weak interaction of APP, PER, MEL, and ZB. This weak interaction is caused by the decrease in the specific surface area and agglomeration of ZB particles for IFR/ZB (5-10 μm) and IFR/ZB (1-2 μm), respectively.
