Sustainable and efficient flame retardant materials for achieving high fire safety for polystyrene composites

Nour F. Attia

Summary: The study developed novel porous carbon sheets as a green, renewable, cost-effective, and efficient flame retardant material for thermoplastic polymers. The porous graphite sheets exhibited significant improvements in fire safety and flame retardancy of developed polystyrene composites, attributed to their charing capability and porous structure effect in conjunction with natural doping of desirable elemental composition. This research provides a new tool for producing scalable, green, renewable, and cost-effective flame retardant and smoke suppressant materials for thermoplastic polymers.

N-alkoxyamine-containing macromolecular intumescent flame-retardant-decorated ZrP nanosheet and their synergism in flame-retarding polypropylene

Yishen Chen et al.

Summary: A novel N-alkoxyamine-containing MIFR-decorated zirconium phosphate nanosheet was synthesized and combined with APP to endow PP with excellent flame retardancy. The addition of this new flame retardant system significantly reduced heat release rate and the production of CO and CO2, providing a new approach for preparing high-performance flame-retardant polymers.
