Abstract:In this study, zinc fluoroborate was synthesized by wet method using fluoroboric acid and zinc oxide as reactant and its usability as flame retardant for cotton fabrics was investigated. The wet method is economical, green, efficient and applicable for a large-scale. The maximum yield was determined related to the variation of reactant ratio, temperature, reaction period and stirrer rate. The characterization of the product was carried out by means of FTIR, BF4- ion selective electrode and XRD. The maximum yie… Show more
