Natural flammability properties of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) seriously limit the use of ABS polymers in industries. Improving the flammability performance of ABS by using halogenated additives has been a very common method in the past. However, with increasing environmental awareness, the use of halogen‐containing additives has been severely limited over time. Therefore, we aimed to use halogen‐free flame‐retardant additives in our study to improve the flame‐retardant properties of ABS. ABS‐based composites containing 20, 25, 30 % aluminum diethyl‐phosphinate (AlPi) and ammonium polyphosphate (APP) halogen‐free flame‐retardant additives by weight, were prepared using a twin‐screw extruder. V0 rating according to UL 94 standard for the thickness of 1.5 mm, limiting oxygen index (LOI) value higher than 28 %, and glow wire flammability index of 960 °C were aimed in this study. To improve the LOI values of flame‐retardant ABS composites, pentaerythritol (PER), zinc borate (ZB), and magnesium hydroxide were used. The highest LOI value was obtained to be 28.1 % by using 12.5 wt.% AlPi, 12.5 wt.% APP, 5 wt.% PER and 3 wt.% ZB. The effect of flame retardants on mechanical properties (flexural and tensile properties), impact properties (Izod and Charpy‐notched impact strength), thermal properties, melt flow index, and morphology (scanning electron microscopy) of ABS were also examined.

“…One of the attractive properties of ABS is its high apparent gloss. [30] However the gloss values of polymers can be affected by flame retardant additives. Surface gloss measurements were conducted to understand whether ABS could maintain its gloss value by adding FR additives (AlPi-APP, PER, MH, ZB) into ABS.…”

“…In most cases, coupling agents are used to modify the fillers. According to Mangore et al [22], they can be defined as compounds applied to improve the chemical bonding between dissimilar materials and improve the interfacial bonding between the lignocellulosic filler and the polymer matrix. When it comes to this research, acetylation with sulfuric acid was chosen due to the overall simplicity of the method, while silanization using APTES was chosen because, according to Neves et al [23], it is the most frequently used method of surface modification of cellulose-based fillers for the composites.…”

The aim of the presented research was to determine the suitability of both non-modified and modified buckwheat husk (BH) as a filler for urea–formaldehyde adhesive in plywood production. The effect of two modification methods, acetylation and silanization, was investigated. Infrared spectroscopy outcomes confirmed that both acetylation and silanization of the filler had occurred. Based on the results, it was found that the introduction of BH had a significant effect on both the adhesive properties and the characteristics of the manufactured plywood. The application of non-modified husks led to a reduction in viscosity and an extension of the gelation time, and the produced plywood boards were characterized by reduced bonding quality and increased delamination. Modification of the husk surface by acetylation and silanization with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane contributed to the noticeable improvement in the resin properties. On the other hand, the improvement in plywood properties, consisting of the increase in bonding quality and reduced delamination, was observed only in the case of the silanized husk. Furthermore, the use of non-modified and acetylated husk did not significantly influence the formaldehyde emission. The reduction in the investigated emission of formaldehyde was observed only in the case of variants containing 15 and 20% of silanized buckwheat husk.

Plastics continue to transform everyday life with their versatility, lightweight, and durability, although the escalating issue of plastic pollution necessitates urgent action. The surge in single-use plastics and a disposable culture worsens this problem, emphasizing the need to reduce plastic production, establish circular material models, and phase out single-use plastic products. Addressing the environmental impact of plastics requires the development of technologies enabling more efficient recycling solutions, converting waste plastics into harmless substances. Recycling methods, combining solvent-based recycling and mechanical recycling, are pivotal in this context. This study specifically focuses on the solvent-based and mechanical recycling of ABS materials. Wiring devices are prepared using a blend of 70% virgin ABS material and 30% recycled ABS (rABS) material, with this loop repeated three times. The aim is to evaluate the quality and acceptability of products derived from the blend of virgin and recycled ABS material after three times of cycle. Wiring devices, manufactured from mechanically ground broken ABS, undergo rigorous testing in each cycle. The experiments aim to assess the suitability and performance of recycled ABS material for mass production, facilitating an in-depth analysis of the material's life cycle. The mechanical test results demonstrate favorable outcomes for the recycled acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (rABS) materials, indicating comparable performance to the reference ABS virgin grade. While a marginal reduction in impact strength and tensile strength is observed when juxtaposed with the reference ABS virgin grade, the overall mechanical characteristics of rABS, remain consistent through successive recycling loops. These findings underscore the viability and resilience of rABS materials, positioning them as promising candidates for sustainable and environmentally conscious applications within the realm of polymer engineering. Through these efforts, the study contributes to sustainable plastic management practices, aligning with the broader goal of mitigating plastic pollution and promoting a more environmentally conscious approach.
