Effect of MPOP/TPP/PER Composite Flame-retardant on Burning Behavior of PP
Polypropylene/melamine polyphosphate/triphenyl phosphate (PP/MPOP/TPP) composites and PP/MPOP/TPP/pentaerythritol (PER) composites were prepared by the method of melt-blending.The effect of mass ratio of different flame-retardant components on the burning behavior of PP was also studied.The results show that,when the content of flame retardant is fixed at 30% of pure PP,and the mass ratio of MPOP and TPP is 20/10,the thermal stability of the composites decreases,while its flame-retardant property increases.Adding PER to the above system,when the total content of FR,in which the mass ratio of MPOP and TPP is 20/10,and PER is 22.5/7.5,the thermal stability of the materials decreases,but the effect of coal-forming increases,the limited oxygen index (LOI) reaches to 22.6%,increased by 26.97% than that of pure PP,the rate of heat release,the total heat release,the effective heat of combustion and the productivity of harmful gas all decrease obviously.The flame-retardant property of PP/MPOP/TPP/PER composites improves obviously.
