Abstract
The phosphorus-containing flame retardant that can enter the interior of cotton fiber and has self-crosslinking ability was designed and synthesized. The flame retardant contains two components, 2-(1-(dimethoxy phosphoryl)-2,5, 8-Triazectridecyl) phosphonate starch (PTPS) and 4-(hydroxymethyl)-10-((3-((5-(hydroxymethyl)-10-((3-((tris(hydroxymethyl)phosphonio)methyl)ureido)methyl)-2,6,8,12,14,18-hexaaza-4,10,16-Triphosphanonadecane (BPTP). The structure of PTPS and BPTP were detected by NMR and FTIR, and the results showed that the synthesis of PTPS and BPTP was successful. During the treatment, cellulose was first endowed with -NH groups. Then PTPS molecule and BPTP molecule were grafted onto cellulose through the reaction of P-CH2-OH groups and -NH groups. After 50 laundering cycles (NFPA2112-2012 standard), the limiting oxygen indexes (LOIs) of the fabrics treated with 35 wt% CFN-PB and 30 wt% CFN-PB were 28.80 % and 27.30 %, respectively, and passed the vertical flame test (VFT). Compared with the raw cotton, the peak heat release rate (PHRR), the total heat rate (THR) and the flame growth rate (FGR) of the CNF-PB treatment fabric were reduced by 62.90%, 29.43% and 62.91% respectively. These indicate that the flame retardant PB could be firmly fixed on the fibers and show good flame retardancy durability. In the VFT, and cone calorimetry test, the CFN-PB treated fabric showed the condensed phase flame retardant mechanism.
期刊介绍:
Polymer Degradation and Stability deals with the degradation reactions and their control which are a major preoccupation of practitioners of the many and diverse aspects of modern polymer technology.
Deteriorative reactions occur during processing, when polymers are subjected to heat, oxygen and mechanical stress, and during the useful life of the materials when oxygen and sunlight are the most important degradative agencies. In more specialised applications, degradation may be induced by high energy radiation, ozone, atmospheric pollutants, mechanical stress, biological action, hydrolysis and many other influences. The mechanisms of these reactions and stabilisation processes must be understood if the technology and application of polymers are to continue to advance. The reporting of investigations of this kind is therefore a major function of this journal.
However there are also new developments in polymer technology in which degradation processes find positive applications. For example, photodegradable plastics are now available, the recycling of polymeric products will become increasingly important, degradation and combustion studies are involved in the definition of the fire hazards which are associated with polymeric materials and the microelectronics industry is vitally dependent upon polymer degradation in the manufacture of its circuitry. Polymer properties may also be improved by processes like curing and grafting, the chemistry of which can be closely related to that which causes physical deterioration in other circumstances.
