“…As a consequence, the flame temperature is lowered and the resultant oxides form a protective layer, on the surface of the material, limiting the movement of the volatile degradation products to the flame and oxygen to the burning material. The group of flame retardants containing phosphorus and nitrogen includes, among others, phosphaphenanthrene phosphonamidates [12], ammonium polyphosphate [13,14], polydopamine [15], triphenylphosphate [16], dimethyl methylphosphonate [17], dimethylpropanphosphonate [18], hexaphenoxy cyclotriphosphazene [19] and aluminum phosphinate [4,20,21].…”
