A Study on Preparation and Fire-retardant Behavior of Phosphate Type Emulsified Fire Proofing Agent for Synthetic Fibers

합성섬유용 인산염계 유화방염제의 제조 및 방염거동에 관한 연구

For the purpose of producing emulsified fire proofing agent for synthetic fibers, 2,3-dibromopropylmonoamido orthophosphate[DP-AOP] and bis(2,3-dibromopropyl)monoamidoorthophosphate[$(DP)_{2}AOP$] were synthesized, and their structures were identified by instrumental analysis, respectively. Using three kinds of emulsifiers, O/W emulsified fire proofing agents, DPF and DPDPF, were obtained corresponding to DP-AOP and $(DP)_{2}-AOP$, respectively. Various synthetic textiles were fire-retardant treated by prepared DPF and DPDPF, and fire retardancy and tearing strength of the resulting products were tested. The results showed that as the concentration of fire proofing agents increased, fire retardancy increased, but the tearing strength much decreased, where the tendencies of DPDPF were deeper than those of DPF. But, since the fire retardancy appeared favorable in the range of $10{\sim}20wt%$ of DPDPF, DPDPF is proven to be a fire proofing agent useful for various synthetic textiles.
