Clustered aluminum alkylphosphinate composite flame retardant system enhancing mechanism of fire safety in styrene-butadiene copolymer
This study constructed a composite flame-retardant system by combining an aluminum alkylphosphinate flame retardant with cluster aggregation characteristics (CATP) and aluminum diethylphosphinate (ADP) for flame-retardant modification of acrylonitrile-styrene-butadiene (ABS). The flame-retardant performance and mechanisms of this system were systematically investigated. The results indicated that when the CATP/ADP mass ratio was 2:8 with a total loading of 28 wt. %, the ABS composite achieved an LOI value of 35.6 % and passed the UL-94 V-0 rating. Cone calorimeter tests revealed that the peak heat release rate (pk-HRR) and total heat release (THR) were reduced by 73 % and 40 % respectively, compared to neat ABS. Investigation into the flame-retardant mechanism revealed that CATP/ADP released PO• radicals during decomposition, quenching the combustion chain reactions in the gas phase. Simultaneously, CATP promoted the formation of a continuous and compact char layer that covered the substrate, inhibiting heat transfer. Furthermore, phosphorus (P) and aluminum (Al) elements become enriched within this char layer, enhancing its barrier effect. This demonstrates a dual-phase synergistic flame-retardant effect involving both gas-phase and condensed-phase mechanisms. In the glow wire test, the glow-wire ignition temperature (GWIT) and glow-wire flammability index (GWFI) of the CATP/ADP/ABS sample reached 750 °C and 775 °C, respectively. This represented a significant improvement over pure ABS, demonstrating excellent fire safety performance. Furthermore, regarding mechanical properties, the composite system exhibits tensile strength (26–27 MPa) higher than that of the single ADP system (21–22 MPa). However, the impact strength decreases (7.3–7.7 kJ/m2) due to disruption of the rubber phase structure. In summary, this study provided both a theoretical foundation and technical support for the development of high-performance halogen-free flame-retardant ABS.
期刊介绍:
Polymer Degradation and Stability deals with the degradation reactions and their control which are a major preoccupation of practitioners of the many and diverse aspects of modern polymer technology.
Deteriorative reactions occur during processing, when polymers are subjected to heat, oxygen and mechanical stress, and during the useful life of the materials when oxygen and sunlight are the most important degradative agencies. In more specialised applications, degradation may be induced by high energy radiation, ozone, atmospheric pollutants, mechanical stress, biological action, hydrolysis and many other influences. The mechanisms of these reactions and stabilisation processes must be understood if the technology and application of polymers are to continue to advance. The reporting of investigations of this kind is therefore a major function of this journal.
However there are also new developments in polymer technology in which degradation processes find positive applications. For example, photodegradable plastics are now available, the recycling of polymeric products will become increasingly important, degradation and combustion studies are involved in the definition of the fire hazards which are associated with polymeric materials and the microelectronics industry is vitally dependent upon polymer degradation in the manufacture of its circuitry. Polymer properties may also be improved by processes like curing and grafting, the chemistry of which can be closely related to that which causes physical deterioration in other circumstances.
