Preparation and characterization of multipurpose polypropylene composite with outstanding flame retardancy and antistatic property

“…To gain further insight into the impact of CA@APP@GM on the thermal decomposition process of PP, TG‐IR was employed to study the chemical composition of the gaseous volatile matter produced by the CA@APP@GM/PP composite, as shown in Figure 8. The gas products in Figure 8 mainly consist of hydrocarbons (2963 cm −1 ), carbonyl groups (1644 cm −1 ), and ethers (1258 cm −1 ) 37 . Upon the addition of CA@APP@GM, no significant differences were noted in the characteristic absorption peaks of gas phase products of PP composites compared to the gas phase pyrolysis products of pure PP.…”

“…The gas products in Figure 8 mainly consist of hydrocarbons (2963 cm À1 ), carbonyl groups (1644 cm À1 ), and ethers (1258 cm À1 ). 37 Upon the addition of CA@APP@GM, no significant differences were noted in the characteristic absorption peaks of gas phase products of PP composites compared to the gas phase pyrolysis products of pure PP. However, at 465 C, a distinctive peak of CO 2 appeared at 2350 cm À1 .…”

Recent progress in the synthesis of transition metal nitride catalysts and their applications in electrocatalysis

“…43 When the MOF linker contains oxygen and the metal reduction potential is less than a critical value, the product will not be a metal nitride but a metal oxide. 44 In addition, the intermediates of MOF pyrolysis are easily disturbed by H 2 O and O 2 to form oxides or hydroxides, so it is necessary to ensure that the environment is free of H 2 O and O 2 . High porosity is the advantage of MOF, but the porous structure often means that the density is reduced, the mechanical strength is reduced, and it is easy to damage, which is not conducive to use in wider practical applications.…”
