How do flame retardants work in fires?

Environmental protection halogen-free flame retardants play three major roles in fires: 1. Covering effect; After adding environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardants to combustible materials, a glassy or stable foam coating can be formed at high temperatures to isolate oxygen. It has the functions of heat insulation, oxygen insulation, and prevention of flammable gases from escaping outwards, so as to achieve the purpose of flame retardancy. Reason

Environmental protection halogen-freeflame retardantTo play three major roles in the fire

(a) the role of coverage;

After adding environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardants to combustible materials, a glassy or stable foam coating can be formed at high temperatures to isolate oxygen, with heat insulation, oxygen insulation, and prevent the escape of combustible gases, so as to achieve flame retardancy. purpose. The reason is that on the one hand, it can prevent the polymer from further pyrolysis, on the other hand, it can prevent the internal thermal decomposition organisms from entering the gas phase to participate in the combustion process.

inhibition of chain reactions;

According to the chain reaction theory of combustion, what is needed to sustain combustion is free radicals. Environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardants can act on the gas phase combustion zone to prevent the spread of the flame, so that the flame density of the combustion zone is reduced, and the combustion reaction rate is reduced until the end. Such as halogen-containing flame retardants, its evaporation temperature and polymer decomposition temperature of the same or similar, when the polymer is heated decomposition, the flame retardant also volatilized, it can capture the free radicals in the combustion reaction, thereby preventing the spread of the flame, so that the flame density of the combustion zone decreased, and ultimately the combustion reaction rate decreased until the end.

3, non-combustible gas asphyxiation effect;

Halogen-free flame retardant environmental protection is not conducive to the decomposition of combustion gas when heated, and the concentration of combustible gas diluted to the lower limit of combustion, dilute the oxygen concentration in the combustion zone, prevent the combustion to continue, so as to achieve the role of flame retardant.

Zhongke Flame Retardant Organization Watches 20 Closing Ceremonies

On the morning of October 22, 2022, members of Zhongke Flame Retardant New Materials Co., Ltd. watched the closing ceremony of the 20th Congress under the leadership of General Manager Wang Ligui.

What are the reasons for the failure of flame retardant after adding aluminum hydroxide flame retardant?

Everyone knows that there are two common flame retardants. Today we are going to talk about only one of them. Aluminum hydroxide flame retardant is an environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardant, which can be widely used in fabrics, wood, plastics, and rubber., Polyurethane and other industries have ideal flame retardant effect. In the process of industrial application, it is found that flame retardant failure occurs when aluminum hydroxide flame retardant is added. The following are the reasons for the failure of aluminum hydroxide flame retardant, how to prevent it, how to deal with the operation, and restore the original function.

As a flame retardant, magnesium hydroxide also need to improve what aspects?

When it comes to flame retardants, everyone is familiar with them. Although we usually have less contact with them, we can know what they are used for from the name. Have to talk about magnesium hydroxide, we all know that its main presentation state is a granular, at present, the market sales of magnesium hydroxide particle size is larger, part of the commodity particle size up to tens of microns, immediately used as a flame retardant, poor dispersion, the physical properties of raw materials greater harm. In industrial production, physical grinding methods are generally used to reduce the particle size to 1 micron. The surface of magnesium hydroxide has high polarity and is easy to agglomerate. As the compatibility of refractory materials and polymer substrates, it not only reduces its flame retardant grade, but also causes more serious harm to the physical properties of raw materials.
