Plastics are commercially produced by selecting a polymer resin and incorporating chemical additives to affect specific mechanical, chemical or aesthetic properties of the plastic products. The number of possible combinations of polymers and additives yields an enormous engineering space to meet the design requirements of the many applications of plastic materials. However, the broad scope of plastics science hinders both the invention of new plastics formulations and efforts to investigate potentially harmful polymer resins and plastic additives. In this thesis, a method of representing and analyzing the claims section of patents is presented and applied to a set of patents that refer to flame retardants. The claims section of a patent is presented as a graph, with individual claims as points and references between claims as lines connecting those points.
The chemical terms mentioned in the text of each of the claims were split into individual words or short sequences of words, called "tokens", by an existing materials tokenizer that had been trained on scientific journal articles. The term frequency - inverse document frequency (tf-idf) statistic for each token within each claim was computed, using the entire claims section of the individual patent to calculate the document frequency. Each claim was attributed the tokens that had tf-idf scores greater than the highest-scoring term shared with a claim to which that claim referred. By researcher inspection, this method served to extract relevant chemical terms, while omitting words that did not contribute to the chemical relevance of the claim or patent as a whole. A visualization of these labelled graphs of the claims was generated.
This reduced, graphical representation of materials patents could be implemented to aid in researcher review or computational tasks to survey for chemical components or resin-additive compatibilities. Such a representation of patent data could make the prioritization and review of commercial chemicals a more tractable task.

Full textUna parte fundamental del desarrollo de nuevos materiales poliméricos se centra en la utilización de agentes retardantes a la llama, los cuales contribuyen a reducir la inherente combustibilidad de los polímeros y la producción de humos y de gases tóxicos. El objetivo del presente trabajo ha sido la preparación, characterización y aplicación de nuevos aditivos retardantes a la llama de tipo polimérico que pueden dar lugar al mezclarse con polímeros termoplásticos de gran consumo a sistemas de tipo intumescente. La síntesis de estos additivos se ha llevado a cabo por modificación química de diferentes estructuras polimericas (alcoholes, policetonas, poliaziridinas) con compuestos fosforados, descritos previamente como promotores de retardancia a la llama y/o compuestos con nitrogeno. La eficacidad de algunos de estos additivos ha sido estudiada por mezclarse con polipropileno, uno de los más utilizados termoplasticos.

Full textboron based flame retardant additives, 3.5 mole hydrated zinc borate and boron phosphate were synthesized. Zinc borate was synthesized with the reaction of boric acid and zinc oxide in both laboratory and pilot scale reactors. Effects of reaction parameters on kinetics of reaction and final product particle size were evaluated. Boron phosphate was synthesized via dry, wet and microwave methods. In addition to the synthesized flame retardant additives, several non-halogenated flame retardant additives, which were commercially available, were also used. Composites were prepared using twin screw extruder and molded by injection molding, followed by characterization in terms of flame retardancy behavior, mechanical and thermal properties, and morphologies. Based on the results of first stage experiments, aiming to determine effective additives, different amounts and combinations of triphenyl phosphate, triphenyl phosphine oxide, zinc borate and microwave produced boron phosphate were chosen and used in PET matrix. Flame retardancy of the composites were determined by conducting horizontal burning rate and limiting oxygen index (LOI) tests. Smoke emissions during fire were also measured. According to the LOI test results, LOI of neat PET was determined as 21%, and with the addition of 5% boron phosphate and 5% triphenyl phosphate together, LOI was increased up to 36%. The smoke density analysis results implied that, boron phosphate was a successful smoke suppressant for PET matrix. In addition to flammability properties, tensile and impact properties of the composites were also improved with flame retardant additives and expecially with the addition of triphenyl phosphate.

Full textPoly(vinyl chloride) is one of the most manufactured and consumed thermoplastics in the world. The addition of plasticizers allows modifying its properties (glass transition temperature, modulus…) and then to use this polymer for applications where flexibility is needed (coated textiles, for instance). Nowadays, phthalates are the main candidates for PVC even if they have been more and more controversed due to their possible toxicity. To substitute these petro-based plasticizers, researches are focused on alternative plasticizers based on bio-based raw materials. This PhD work proposes to investigate the development of new bio-based plasticizers for PVC, from lipidic derivatives, and having simultaneously flame retardant properties, avoiding the addition of any other additives in PVC during compounding. In the first part, methyl oleate, methyl linoleate and diacid D18 : 1 have been functionalized by modification of their ester groups and/or their doubles bonds to give phosphorylated lipidic derivatives. Thus, five bio-based plasticizers have been synthesized and the synthesis of one candidate on the scale of the kilogram has been successfully performed during this PhD work. Secondly, the plasticizing efficiency of several candidates with PVC has been evaluated in collaboration an industrial company. Thermal, mechanical and thermomechanical properties of the obtained soft PVC films were studied, in comparison with those obtained with the phthalate plasticizer DINP and the commercial bio-based plasticizer RADIA 7295. These analyses allowed the disposal of some of the bio-based plasticizers to finally keep only two candidates. Satisfying thermal degradation profiles, low Tg, and important elongation at break values (320 % and 365 % respectively) close to those obtained with DINP, confirmed the plasticizing efficiency of these two bio-based phosphorylated plasticizers. Fire tests like the LOI test and the cone calorimeter also proved the flame retardant properties of these two candidates, leading to similar results than the ones reached with the phosphonate plasticizer S141

Full textThe flame retardant are used in several products, specialty for electrical and electronics industry. The irrevocable finality from flame retardant is fires protection to help safeguard of people, reduce injury and reduce destruction of property. However, due the perception of environmental risk and toxicity in composites commercial with halogen and toxic, it has been prohibited. Despite the common commercialization news researches has been developing to substitute this flame retardant, together accompany the new position of law. This work wanted to study an alternative of additive free halogen flame retardant, with polymer matrix the ABS copolymer, combinations the additive: organoclay Cloisite 20A, organoclay Cloisite Na+ treated with quaternary phosphonium salt, ammonium polyphosphate, melamine, micrometric and nanometric particles of aluminum hydroxide, titanium dioxide and silica forming that a composite. To characterization was doing thermal test of TGA and DSC, mechanical test of tensile and impact Izod strength, morphologia available through of MEV and MEV-FEG, X-ray diffraction analysis(XRD), infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance accessory (FTIR-ATR), flame retardant test based the ASTM D635-10 norm and UL 94 norm. Although the result was possible to observe effects about the addition the additive to obtain the ABS composite with inert flame retardant additives, that achieved V-0 and V-2 on the Ul 94, with reduction of linear burning rate between 18% to 80% from ASTM D635.

Full textThe toxicity and the bioaccumumulative character of the usual halogenated flame retardants(RFX) lead to uses restrictions of the main FRX (PBDE) in the EU as REACH. The phosphorus-containing flame retardants (FRP) are suitable for the epoxy thermoset because of their action on the hydroxyl groups. Moreover, the FRP are less toxic than the FRX. With the rise of the biobased epoxy thermosets, the dependence on fossil fuels for the additives synthesis has become problematic. Thus, these works are designed in a sustainable development approach through the valorization of a biobased compound which is representative of the biobased phenolic structures. The directe functionalization of the phloroglucinol with phosphate functions has achieved a first generation of biobased additives FRP which exhibit a significant action in the condensed phase and reduce the heat released during the thermal degradation of the fire retarded thermosets. This effect results in a strong intumescence at macroscopic scale and the expanded residue acts as a barrier and leads to a partial degradation of the thermoset. However, these additives plasticize the thermoset network and reduce the glass and the mechanical transition temperatures. A two-steps functionalization of the phloroglucinol leads to two new biobased FRP, an additive (P3SP) and a reactive (P2EP1SP), with similar chemical structures. We were able to highlight the benefit of the reactive approach which favors the condensed phase action and the intumescence. Moreover, the reactive approach ensures the durability of the flame retarded thermoset properties. Since the reactive approach seems more efficient than the additive one, an other reactive FRP was synthesized, whose the structure was optimized to reduce the plasticizing effect of the phosphorus-containing group. Finally, the study of different 100% biobased phosphorus-containing thermosets highlighted that the disadvantages of the reactive approach may be balanced by the incorporation of a high functionality epoxy precursor or an aromatic curing agent
Gérard, Caroline. "Contribution of nanoparticles to the flame retardancy of epoxy resins." Thesis, Lille 1, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011LIL10034/document.
Full textThis thesis aims at flame-retarding an epoxy resin through the use of nanoparticles. Incorporation of Polyhedral Oligomeric Silsesquioxane (POSS) or carbon nanotubes alone in the matrix provides little enhancement of the reaction to fire. The covalent functionalization of carbon nanotubes by grafting fire-retardant moieties has been carried out and characterized, but it does not enhance the reaction to fire of the epoxy matrix filled with carbon nanotubes. The combination between a phosphorus-based flame-retardant (APP) and carbon nanotubes reveals an antagonistic effect between these two fillers. On the contrary, using POSS in combination with APP provides a synergy. The study of the thermal degradation of these systems shows that the interactions between these fillers modify the viscosity of the degraded matrix. The trapping of degradation gases is enhanced in the case of APP/POSS, which results in the creation of a protective layer earlier than with the reference system containing APP alone. Furthermore, the presence of POSS permits the creation of silicophosphates which reinforce the residue. On the contrary, the residue of the formulation containing carbon nanotubes is excessively stiff and it cracks during combustion, hindering the proper formation of the protective layer

Full textFlame retardants in textile material is used to prevent or delay fire. Laws and standards require that textile goods used in public environments are flame protected. Flame retardant textiles are also used by the occupational groups exposed to the risk of fire in the workplace. The use of flame retardants has increased since the 1970s. In the 1980s, the health and environmental risks associated with their use began to receive attention. This had led to regulations for the use of flame retardants containing chlorine and bromine. The development of halogen-free flame retardants as health and environmentally friendly alternatives is ongoing. The possibility of integrating the flame retardant into the textile fiber is also seen as a health and environmentally friendly alternative. Integration of an inherent flame retardant can be done either during copolymerization of the textile polymer or by adding an additive by the extrusion of the yarn. Inherent flame retardants in textile materials are marketed as health and environmentally friendly as they’re not emitted from the textile material during wash and wear. These aspects include only the part of the lifespan of the textile material that involves the use of the textile. Information of the impact on health and environment during the production and disposal stage of an inherently flame-retardant textile is insufficient. The results show that substances and compounds giving the textile material an inherent flame protection can at these stages in the material life cycle cause damage to both humans and nature. An incorrect handling in the production phase of these substances can lead to emissions. These emissions can cause air pollution and acidification in soil and water. Landfill is common at disposing of inherently flame-retardant textiles which later leads to combustion of the materials. During combustion toxic landfill gases are released into the environment.

The main purpose of this research is to find the condition that the flammability characterization and synerqistic effects of halogen-free flame-retardant PNP additive and magnesium hydroxide in toxic-free polymer ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA).We have been studied by Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI) , Smoke Density chamber test , thermo-gravimetric (TGA) and FTIR (Fourier transform infra-red) analysis. The results show that the halogen-free flame-retardant NP additive in EVA polymer have a great effect on the flammability.But the NP/Mg(OH)2/ EVA copolymer blends have a poor effect on flammability. Thermal analysis indicates the initial step in the EVA’s degradation involves the release of acetic acid. The second step involves degradation of the main chains of EVA. When the heating temperature rises to 450℃ have transethylenes generate , the evidence is in 965㎝-1 wave number has a peak in FTIR analysis. But when the heating temperature rises to 530℃ , the C=O , C-O , C-O-C bond have completed broken , we can not find the peak in FTIR spectroscopy. Anyway , we can say it that 30 weight percent flame-retardant NP additive to the toxic free polymer EVA have nice flame-retardant effect

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of flame-retardant and aging properties of polypropylene with graphene additive. Firstly the granules of polypropylene were molten into colloid, then respectively mixed with 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 wt % self-made graphite oxide, self-made graphene and commercial graphene which dissolved in tetrahydrofuran. Since tetrahydrofuran was volatilized at high temperature, the flame-retardant polypropylene composites are prepared after cooling and molding. Finally the thermal properties and aging tests of composites were conducted. Structure analysis by SPM discovered commercial graphene is about 2-4 layer sheet and self-made graphene is about 3-6 layer. The results of limit oxygen index test and UL-94 vertical flame test reveals that graphite materials have good flame retardant effects. After forty-two(42) days aging test conducted, we found that polypropylene loaded with 1%wt GM has better thermal stability in these GM/PP. The activation enginery of 1%wt GM/PP composites is 346.4 kJ/mole, higher than that, 189.3 kJ/mole, of pure polypropylene, increasing 83% improvement. It demonstrates that graphene can be used as an environmental protected halogen-free flame retardant, while effectively improve the thermal stability of polypropylene.
