The flame retardancy was investigated when the halogenated flame retardant, decabromodiphenyl oxide (DBDPO) and chlorinated paraffin wax (CPW), was added to the polypropylene (PP) / montmorillonite (MMT) nanocomposites. The flame retardancy of polymer resin could be improved not only by addition of flame retardant but also with nanoparticles compositions. The effect of the contents of flame retardant and nanoparticles on the flame retardancy of polypropylene/ montmorillonite nanocomposite systems was thoroughly examined in terms of limited oxygen index (LOI) and cone calorimetry. As a results of cone calorimetry, the heat release rate (HRR) was reduced by the flame retardant DBDPO and CPW, and CPW was a little better than DBDPO. The LOI increased from flammable region (LOI<19) to nonflammable region (LOI>20) for all the flame retardants used in this study. Especially, the improvement in flame retardancy by compounding with PP and MMT was better than that by adding flame retardant to polypropylene. So, the addition of flame retardant after compounding with montmorillonite was more efficient than simple addition of flame retardant.

When the halogenated flame retardant, decabromodiphenyl oxide, was added to the polypropylene/nylon blend, and was compounded with montmorillonite and compatibilizer, maleic anhydride polypropylene, the improvement of flame retardancy and mechanical properties was investigated. The degree of dispersion between polymer resin and inorganic nanoparticles was investigated, and the flame retardancy and mechanical properties was measured quantitatively. XRD results showed that the montrnorillonite was com-pletely exfoliated after polypropylen/nylon nanocomposites was mixed above twice. By compounding with montmorillonite, polypropylene/nylon blend system was overcome the deterioration of flame retardancy. The tensile strength and impact strength were slightly increased, and by compounding with montmorillonite, the additional increase in mechanical properties was obtained. Therefore, the flame retardancy of polypropylene / nylon blend was decreased by adding nylon, but by compounding with inorganic nanoparticle, improvement of the flame retardancy and mechanical properties was obtained.

에폭시 수지는 화학적 열적 안정성과 절기 절연성 및 기계적 특성 등 여러 가지 우수한 특성에도 불구하고 난연성은 그 단독으로 만족시킬 수 없기 때문에 난연제를 첨가함으로써 난연효과를 얻어왔다. 기존에 할로겐 화합물인 브롬계 난연제는 우수한 난연효과에도 불구하고 연소시 유해물질이 발생되어진다. 그리하여 인계 난연제를 첨가하는 것이 고분자 시스템에 난연성을 부여하는 효과적인 수단으로 대두되어지고 있다. 이 실험에서는 인계 난연제와 브롬계 난연제를 10, 20, 30, 40wt% 첨가하여 epoxy composite 제작하였다. 제작된 epoxy composite를 UL-94V 방법으로 난연성 평가하여 브롬계 난연제 20wt%에서 V-0를 획득할 수 있었으나 인계난연제 40wt%에서도 V-0를 만족할 수 없었다. 난연제 함량에 따른 Dielelctric constant 및 loss는 브롬계 난연제를 첨가시 감소하였고, 인계난연제의 경우 증가하였다.

In this paper, the thermal and flame properties of GFRP with various flame retardant(aluminum trihydrate, antimony trioxide) compositions have been investigated by thermal analysis and flammability tests(LOI test, flammability 45 degree test). The flame and mechanical properties(hardness, tensile strength, modulus) of general purpose grade glass fiber/unsaturated polyester composite with flame retardant composition have been also evaluated. The effect of cure pressure on the flame properties of aerospace grade glass fiber/epoxy composite was investigated. Considering the flame and mechanical property of composite, we could determine the optimum flame retardant composition(ATH 10∼20 phr). Test results show that the flame property of glass fiber/epoxy composite is considerably affected by cure pressure conditions.

The flame retarded NBR foams were prepared with metal hydroxides and various phosphorus/nitrogen-contain ing flame retardants. The dependency of the phosphorus content on thermal properties, flame retardancy, smoke density, and foaming properties were investigated in the foams. Foaming properties and morphology of the flame retarded NBR foams with P/N flame retardants( ${\le}10 phr$) were similar to those of the foams without P/N ones but containing metal hydroxides The flame retardancy of the foams was improved with increasing the phosphorus content and char formation under combustion atmosphere. The cone-calorimeter test and LOI index were also coincided with the TGA analysis quite well. The heat release rate (HRR), total heat release (THR), and effective heat of combustion (EHC) were decreased, whereas the carbon monoxide yield was increased with increase of the phosphorus content of P/N flame retardant. The smoke density values were closely related with CO yield values obtained by the cone-calorimeter test due to the high and hard char formation.

The intrinsic flame retardant and heat resistant polymers such as PQXS [poly( quinoxaline )sulfide], PIQS [poly(isoquinoline)sulfide] and PQS [poly(quinoline)sulfide] were synthesized from 2, 3-dichloroquinoxaline, 1, 3-dichloroisoquinoline and 4, 7-dichloroquinoline. They were characterized by FT-IR, UV/Vis spectroscopy, DTA and elemental analysis. The melting point above $350^{\circ}C$ of the polymers show higher than that of the heat resistant PPS polymer(mp. $295^{\circ}C$), In the LOI test, the polymers exhibit an intrinsically high flame retardant property having the LOI values in the range of 41~42. The vertical burning test for the polymers also show an UL 94 V-0 performance.

Among many types of flame retardants, the most available halogen-containing flame retardants were put under environmental restrictions in their use, so non-halogen type phosphorus-based flame retardants have come into the spotlight. When added to resins, flame retardants commonly bring about thermal degradation and decrease in mechanical properties of resins. Studies of new flame retardants were carried out in an attempt to minimize degradation of physical properties and require enough flame retardancy. In this study, three types of non-halogen phosphorus-based flame retardants were synthesized with diaryl alkyl phosphate esters, aromatic phosphate esters and phosphonium nitron flame retardants, which were then identified for the synthesis and thermal properties by gas chromatography (GC), IR and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA).
