This article explores the incorporation of flame retardants as additives in plastic technology, focusing on the mechanisms of polymer combustion, the main modes of action of flame retardant materials, and commonly used flammability tests. It highlights the importance of cooling, char formation, dilution of flammable gases, and interruption of free radical chain reactions in enhancing polymer fire resistance. With challenges in optimizing flame retardant performance while maintaining material properties and environmental safety, innovations in flame retardant technology are pivotal. Keywords: flame retardants, polymer combustion, cooling, protective char, dilution, free radical chain reaction, flammability tests, plastic technology, fire safety.   Read More>

FRP-750A in PP materials for automotive applications effectively balanced enhanced flame retardancy with the necessary impact resistance and environmental compliance, demonstrating its suitability for critical automotive components.   Read More>

Both microcapsule-coated red phosphorus flame retardant and ordinary red phosphorus flame retardant have certain advantages and application value in enhancing the flame retardancy of materials. Microcapsule-coated red phosphorus flame retardant has more efficient flame retardant performance and better stability, but the preparation cost is higher; while ordinary red phosphorus flame retardant has a wide range of application, but is relatively insufficient in smoke generation and stability. In practical applications, it is necessary to choose suitable flame retardants according to specific materials and environmental requirements.   Read More>

When fire occurs, halogen-containing flame retardant materials will produce a large amount of smoke and toxic corrosive hydrogen halide gases during the flame retardant process, resulting in secondary hazards.In February 2003, the European Union promulgated two directives, RoHS and WEEE, the former is about restricting and prohibiting the use of certain toxic and hazardous substances and elements in electrical and electronic equipment, and the latter is a directive on the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment.   Read More>

With the wide application of electronic devices, the requirements for their fire safety performance are getting higher and higher. As an important fireproof material, the application of flame retardants in electronic devices is gradually receiving attention. This paper will introduce the application of flame retardants in electronic devices and discuss how to optimize the performance of flame retardants.   Read More>

red phosphorus is flammable, but in the resin, the action process of red phosphorus and other phosphorus-containing additives is not simple oxidation. The phosphorus-containing additives mainly work in the condensed phase. The flame retardant mechanism isI. When the resin burns it combines with   Read More>

As consumers become more environmentally conscious, the demand for eco-friendly furniture and furnishing is on the rise. However, safety regulations require these items to be flame resistant, which often involves the use of harmful chemicals called halogen flame retardants. In response to this issue   Read More>
