Synergistic flame retardant effects between hollow glass microspheres and magnesium hydroxide in ethylene-vinyl acetate composites

Brucite modified epoxy mortar binders: Flame retardancy, thermal and mechanical characterization

“…It is noteworthy that the value of LOI increases from 20.5% to 26.0% and HB classification reduces from FH-3 to FH-1 with adding a small amount of SB into the EMBs, which reveals that only a small amount of synthetic brucite with high purity can effectively hinder the combustion of epoxy mortar binder. Similar results were also found in glass microspheres and magnesium hydroxide retarded ethylene-vinyl acetate composites [22].…”

Flame Retardance and Smoke Suppression of CFA/APP/LDHs/EVA Composite

“…Deionized water was made by a Milli-Q pure water apparatus in our Lab. 3 with a molar ratio of transition metal cations (Ni 2+ or Co 2+ or Cu 2+ ): Mg 2+ :Al 3+ of 0.05:3.95:1, was slowly added to 100 mL of deionized water at 70 • C with continuously magnetic stirring. In the synthesis, the pH value was adjusted to the range of 8 to 9 by adding the NaOH-Na 2 CO 3 mixed solution (1.2 mol/L NaOH and 0.9 mol/L Na 2 CO 3 ).…”

“…However, the EVA not only is easily flammable, but also releases the toxic CO gas during combustion [1,2]. To reduce flammability and the release of CO for EVA, the addition of flame retardants is effective [3,4]. Brominated flame retardants are the most effective and show a good ratio of property to price, however, their uses have been limited to the consideration of life safety and environmental problems due to a large amount of smoke and hydrogen bromide produced during burning [5,6].…”

Synthesis of a novel phosphazene derivative and its application in intumescent flame retardant–EVA copolymer composites

“…A number of approaches have been attempted to solve the foregoing issues, including the use of ultrafine particles to increase the interfacial area between the flame retardant particles and polymer matrix, surface modification to improve the dispersibility and compatibility of the flame retardant particles within the polymer matrix, and synergism with other flame retardants to reduce the quantity of flame retardant added [2,6,7]. In this work, a novel phosphazene derivative, hexakis(dodecylamino)cyclotriphosphazene (H-12), was synthesized and applied to intumescent flame retardant (IFR)-EVA.…”
