Variations in the oxidation states of phosphorus-containing flame retardants can influence the distribution of phosphorus-containing compounds between the gas and condensed phases during combustion, thereby affecting the flame-retardant performance and mechanisms. Building on previous studies of the impact of phosphorus-containing flame retardants with high oxidation numbers on UPR's combustion behavior and flame-retardant mechanism, this research further investigated the effects of phosphorus-containing structures with -1 and +1 oxidation states on the pyrolysis, heat release, smoke emission, and char formation of intrinsically flame-retardant UPR. Two kinds of itaconic acid-based phosphorus-containing dicarboxylic acids were synthesized and incorporated into the polyester backbones of UPR. Pyrolysis and combustion tests were performed to elucidate the combustion behavior regulation mechanisms of intrinsically flame-retardant UPR with low oxidation numbers. Findings indicate that both of the phosphorus-containing dicarboxylic acids exhibit strong flame inhibition, implying a dominant gas-phase mechanism. Moreover, they effectively shorten the duration of the release of the pyrolysis gases. However, the difference in oxidation states didn't result in a huge difference in their flame inhibition, and it's the condensed phase mechanism that makes the difference in their performance. FRUP2 with stable char layers demonstrates better flame retardancy.

Previous studies have proposed an efficient artificial chalking method based on tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH), but the quantified equivalence between artificial and natural chalking, particularly in terms of electrical properties, remains underexplored. In this paper, 5 naturally chalked (NC) samples with different lifespans and 5 artificially chalked (AC) samples with different TMAH concentrations are prepared. Then surface morphology, structure, mechanical and electrical properties of chalked samples are methodically characterized. The results indicate that the overall performance of the two kinds of chalking surfaces is similar, but AC samples treated with high TMAH concentration exhibits severe chalking. Besides, the NC process is driven by both filler precipitation and oxidative crosslink, whereas the AC process lacks internal oxidation. Further analysis based on quantum chemistry calculations reveals the silanol produced during chalking has a narrow-forbidden gap and deep traps, which degrades the electrical properties. Finally, a lifespan assessment method with 8 chalking indexes is constructed and the optimal Ridge Regression model is selected to comprehensively assess lifespans of AC samples.
