A novel and efficient flame retardant additive poly (biphenyl phenoxy phosphate) (PBPP) was prepared by reaction of biphenol with dichloro phenoxyphosphate. The structure of PBPP was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) result demonstrated that the initial decomposition temperature of PBPP was 253 ℃
with a char residue of 51.41 wt% at 700 ℃. PBPP blended with ammonium polyphosphate (APP) at the ratio of 1:2 was incorporated into epoxy resins and cured by
m
-phenylenediamine (
m
-PDA) to form a flame retardant thermoset (FR-EP). The effect of intumescent flame retardant (IFR) composed of PBPP and APP on epoxy resin was investigated by limiting oxygen index (LOI)
vertical burning (UL-94)
TGA
cone calorimetry (CONE) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Comparing epoxy resin retardant common used with 30 wt% of APP
this PBPP based flame retardant with PBPP amount of 10 wt% showed similar retardant effect as the classical one. At this low addition amount of PBPP
this PBPP/APP modified FR-EP past UL-94 V0 grade and gave 29.6% as the LOI value at the same time. TGA test results revealed that the incorporation of PBPP/APP into epoxy resins stimulated the degradation of thermosets at initial degradation stage and charring formation. The char yield of the FR-EP thermosets increased from 15.02 wt% to 22.17 wt% at 700 ℃. According to the cone test
heat release rate (HRR)
total heat release (THR) and total smoke release (TSR) were all decreased dramatically in the FR-EP. The cone test showed that the av-HRR
pk-HRR
and av-EHC of the FR-EP were lowered by 45.7%
51.0% and 21.1%
respectively
in comparison with those of the pure EP. The char residue of the new FR-EP was about 80 times of that observed in the pure EP. Moreover
PBPP/APP promoted the epoxy resins thermosets forming more homogeneous and compact char layer during combustion as seen by SEM. Char layer prevented the inner matrix from further decomposition and combustion
which enhanced by consequence the flame retardancy of the FR-EP thermosets. The tensile strength of EP was also affect by loading of the flame retardant with a decrease at lower loading and an increased at higher loading.
