Due to tightened environmental regulations on halogen type flame retardants, the portions of those based on phosphorous compounds that are non-halogen type is rising. When producing functional film, the physical and thermal properties become distinctly different depending on the amount of Red-phosphorus(RP) addition which causes flame resistance. The physical properties of resin fall in big scale when too much flame retardants are added, and it is hard to be applied to functional films such as shrink or anticorrosive film. The purpose of this research is to study the effects on mechanical, physical, and other properties of RP-LDPE films by changing the RP-MB contents. The LDPE film used for this study was produced through blow-type injection molding. The flame resistance was VTM-0, and the tear resistance showed inverse trends of MD and TD. Contraction percentage showed no relationship with the amount of RP content, but the anti-corrosive property showed 0.05 % better result than the national anti-corrosion shrink film reliability standard.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the flame retardant performance of Japanese cypress(Chamaecyparis obtusa) plywood, commonly used in indoor decoration, furniture, and tableware, by treating it with three different fire retardants with different primary ingredients. The experiment was conducted in compliance with Article 31, Paragraph 2 of the Enforcement Decree of the Fire Facilities Installation and Management Act and Articles 4 and 7-2 of the Flame Retardant Performance Standards. After flame time, after glow time, char length, and char area were measured. As a result, first, after flame time was measured at 0 seconds regardless of whether the flame retardant treatment was applied. Second, after glow time was relatively long, measuring 22.7 seconds without treatment, which is likely due to the weak fire resistance and high concentration of carbon monoxide generated by the chemical characteristics of the Japanese cypress itself. Third, it was confirmed that the effects of the primary ingredient, phosphorus, in the flame retardant treatment varied depending on the technological development of the manufacturers of the same species of Japanese cypress plywood. In the future, it is expected that the results of this study will provide fundamental data to select flame retardant treatments that show high flame retardant performance according to the botanical characteristics of the wood.

The membrane structure provides high satisfaction with lightweight, improved workability, reduced cost, and a free shape. Thus, its applications expanding. On the other hand, in an architectural membrane that is vulnerable to fire, the development of various architectural membranes with flame resistance is in demand. Therefore, this study applied basalt woven fabric safety for flame resistance, excellent heat insulation and thermal properties on an architectural membrane. The PTFE- coated basalt woven fabric membrane was compared with a PTFE coated glass fiber membrane by DSC/TGA, strength properties, flammability, and incombustibility properties. In addition, this study confirmed the membrane applicability of basalt woven fabric and basalt-glass hybrid woven fabric through a comparison with existing architectural membranes.

Membrane structures can be used to create diverse lightweight structural forms using ductile membranes made of coated fabric. Using membrane structures, it is possible to construct large covered spaces relatively quickly and economically, and hence, they are being applied within various applications. The structures are light-weight, transparent, flexible in their application, economical and easy to maintain, and as such, their usage is being expanded. However, despite their prevalence, the standard for membrane material performance in terms of fire safety is still inadequate, and the development of membrane materials with excellent flame resistance performance is being demanded. This study determined flame resistance performance of architectural membranes, including PTFE, PVDF, PVF and ETFE film membranes, through flammability testing and incombustibility testing.

Aminophosphazene derivatives were prepared from hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene and used for the curing agents of epoxy resins. The effect of the curing agent on the dynamic viscoelastic properties, flame proofing, and heat resistance of the cured epoxy resins were investigated and compared with those for the epoxy resins cured with aliphatic and aromatic amines. The epoxy resin cured by 1,1-diamino-3,3,5,5-tetrachlorocyclotriphosphazene showed the highest storage modulus and glass transition temperature when cured at 19$0^{\circ}C$ for 6 hours. The epoxy resins cured with phosphazene derivatives showed superior flame proofing to those with aliphatic amine and aromatic amine. Particularly it is an effective curing agent for epoxy resins to enhance the storage modulus, flame proofing and resistance to heat.

Two PU flame-retardant coatings, 2,3-DBPO/N-l00 (DBPON) and 2,3-DBPO/IL (DBPOI), were prepared by curing 2,3-dibromo modified polyester (2,3-DBPO) with isocyanate curing agent Desmodur N-l00 (or Desmodur IL) at room temperature. The physical properties and flame-retardancy of the two coatings were tested and compared. As a result, the pot-life, yellowness index, lightness index difference, $60^{\circ}$ specular gloss, cross-hatch adhesion, viscosity, and accelerated weathering resistance of DBPON were better than those of DBPOI; the fineness of grind of the two coatings were the same; and the drying time, hardness, and abrasion resistance of DBPOI were better than those of DBPON. The flame retardancy of the flame-retardant coatings increased with the content of the flame retarding component, 2,3-dibromopropanoic acid (2,3-DBP); and the LOI values of the two coatings were in a range of $27{\sim}29%$ when the content of 2,3-DBP was 30wt%.

Flame retardant halogen containing compounds have been replaced as environmentally safe material which does not contain hazardous materials generating toxic gas. Self-extinguishing epoxy resin compositions have been studied in order to produce eco-friendly epoxy molding compound, which is used as insulating materials in semiconductor. We developed self-extinguishing epoxy resin compositions which do not contain halogen compounds with new epoxy resin (E3). The new epoxy molding compound (EMC-1) showed high flame resistance (UL-V0) and high thermal resistance ($451.9^{\circ}C$ at 5 wt% loss) enough to use as eco-friendly material.

It compared quality characteristics for the stone surface treatment system and its products. With the result, the flame burner equipment was mainly used to the surface treatment of granite, but it occurred greatly the high temperature, the rock fragment, the noise and dust. For the other side, the whetstone polishing machine for the polishing was a maintenance for the specific physical properties of stone, and it did not occur the stone fragment and the dust. The durability of the stone products due to the flame burner was investigated with that it falls to $20\sim25\%$ more than the surface treatment by the whetstone polishing. Share's hardness of the polishing products in the durability test showed more greatly index than the flame burner and conventional product. The polishing products of Pochon stone in the case of the abrasion resistance showed great more $15\%$ than the general products, more $9\%$ than the products by the flame burner.

Reaction intermediates PCP/BZA (PBI) and tetramethylene bis(orthophosphate)(TBOP) were synthesized from polycaprolactone (PCP) and benzoic acid (BZA) and from pyrophosphoric acid and 1,4-butanediol, respectively. Benzoic acid modified polyesters containing phosphorus (APTB-S, -10, -15) were synthesized by polycondensation of the prepared PBI (containing 5, 10, 15wt% of benzoic acid), TBOP, adipic acid, and 1,4-butanediol. Network structured PU flame-retardant coatings (APHD) were prepared by curing the synthesized benzoic acid modified polyesters containing phosphorus (APT B - 5 , -10, -15) with hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI)-timer. From the TGA analysis of APTBs, it was found that the afterglow decreased with the amount of BZA content at the high temperatures. With the introduction of BZA, the film viscosity and film hardness of APHD decreased. With the introduction of caprolactone group, the flexibility, impact resistance, accelerated weathering resistance of APTBs increased. Flame retardancy of the coatings was tested. In a vertical burning method, APHD shows 210$^{\sim}$313 seconds, which indicates that the coatings are good flame-retardant coatings. Moreover, the amount of afterglow and flame retardancy of the coatings are decreased with increasing BZA content.
