Silica nanohybrid expandable graphite particles serve as an efficient flame retardant for polypropylene/polyamide 6 blends, enhancing flame retardancy, thermal stability, and mechanical properties. Compared to pure expandable graphite, the nanohybrid particles exhibit improved flame retardant efficiency and better thermal stability in the composites.
Silica (SiO2) nanohybrid expandable graphite (nEG) particles fabricated through one-step method are used as an efficient flame retardant for polypropylene (PP)/polyamide 6 (PA6) blends. The effect of nEG on the flammability, thermal stability, crystallization behaviors, and mechanical properties of PP/PA6 composites is investigated by using limit oxygen index (LOI), UL-94 test, cone calorimeter test (CCT), thermogravimetric analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, and mechanical tests. Compared with pure expandable graphite (EG), nEG improves the flame retardancy of composites. The results of LOI show that LOI of PP/PA6/nEG10 and PP/PA6/nEG15 composites are 26.0% and 27.2%, respectively. But the LOI values of PP/PA6/EG10 and PP/PA6/EG15 composites are 25.7% and 26.9%, respectively. The UL-94 test results show that PP/PA6/nEG10 composites reach V-1 level when the nEG content is only 10%. However, the PP/PA6 composites with 10% EG does not pass the UL-94 test. In addition, PP/PA6 composites with 15% nEG can reach V-0 level. The CCT results further show that nEG has a higher flame-retardant efficiency than pure EG for PP/PA6 blends. The thermal stability of PP/PA6/nEG composites is better than that of PP/PA6/EG composites. The mechanical property tests indicate that nEG is more conducive to maintain the tensile and impact strengths of PP/PA6 blends than EG due to the enhanced compatibility and interfacial adhesion.
