Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Firefighting—How Modern Phosphorus Chemistry Can Help Solve the Challenge of Flame Retardancy

TL;DR: Investigating how current phosphorus chemistry helps in reducing the flammability of polymers, and addressing the future of sustainable, efficient, and safe phosphorus‐based flame‐retardants from renewable sources are addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperbranched phosphorus flame retardants: multifunctional additives for epoxy resins

TL;DR: In this paper, a multifunctional P-based hyperbranched polymeric flame retardants (hb-FRs) with varying oxygen-to-nitrogen (O : N) content and characterized them via 1H and 31P NMR and GPC were successfully synthesized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Systematically Controlled Decomposition Mechanism in Phosphorus Flame Retardants by Precise Molecular Architecture: P–O vs P–N

TL;DR: In this article, the authors synthesized a library of phosphorus flame retardants (FRs) and studied their decomposition mechanism in epoxy resins and proved that the blending of esters and amides outperformed the single molecule amidates/diamidates due to distinctively different decomposition mechanisms acting synergistically when blended.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hyperbranched Rigid Aromatic Phosphorus-Containing Flame Retardants for Epoxy Resins

TL;DR: A rigid aromatic phosphorus-containing hyperbranched flame retardant structure is synthesized from 10-(2,5 dihydroxyphenyl)-10H-9-oxa-======10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO-HQ), tris(4-hydroxymhenyl)phosphine oxide (THPPO), and 1,4-terephthaloyl chloride (TPC).
Journal ArticleDOI

Sulfur's role in the flame retardancy of thio-ether–linked hyperbranched polyphosphoesters in epoxy resins

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of a series of phosphorus-based flame retardant additives with and without sulfur (thio-ethers or sulfones) in their structure are compared.
