Flame retardant effect of aluminum hydroxide in PVC

The phenomenon of continuous combustion of polymers actually requires relevant composition factors. That is: dye, heat and oxygen. The burning of the three missing is over. Black and white smoke is usually different from the smoke from burning plastic. Black smoke refers to the solid particles suspended in the combustion gas product under anoxic conditions; white smoke refers to small particles suspended in the air, such as steam condensate. Aluminum hydroxide flame retardant has a certain smoke suppression effect on soft polyvinyl chloride, but the mechanism of black smoke has a representative carbon double bond shrinkage mechanism, that is, gas polymerization to produce aromatic or polycyclic polymer compounds, and then shrink graphitization to produce carbon particles.

  aluminum hydroxideThe anti-inflammatory effect of flame retardants, on the one hand, is due to the large surface area of aluminum oxide produced during the heating process, which can absorb tobacco cores and smoke particles to achieve smoke suppression effect. On the other hand, aluminum hydroxide suppresses the production of smoke because it promotes the carbonization process and replaces the soot formation process. Generally speaking, its smoke elimination effect may also be related to its dehydration and heat absorption during combustion.

Because in the coacervate phase, the dissipation of heat will reduce the pyrolysis and facilitate the cross-linking reaction. In addition, aluminum hydroxide can also absorb the acid gas hydrogen chloride produced by combustion, further reducing the amount of smoking. Under the same dosage of 50 percent, the performance test results of different particle size Al(OH)3/PVC flame retardant system. When pure PVC burns, when the same strip is ignited, it will burn rapidly, the burning area will continue to melt, the flame will become larger and larger, and the molten droplets will become more and more serious.

Andaluminum hydroxideThe addition of flame retardants also has great changes in performance, and the smoke during combustion changes greatly. With the decrease of particle size, the final fracture length increases, the dispersion increases, the amount of smoke decreases, and the self-extinguishing time shortens. The rod-like crystal Al(OH)3 has good horizontal tensile strength. Under the same particle size, due to the characteristics of the surface shape, the final fracture length of Al(OH)3 containing phosphate is higher under the same horizontal tension, and the extinguishing time is relatively fast due to the strong dehydration of phosphate.

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.
