Journal ArticleDOI

Use of oxide nanoparticles and organoclays to improve thermal stability and fire retardancy of poly(methyl methacrylate)

TL;DR: In this paper, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and cone calorimetry were used to study the thermal stability and fire retardant properties of PMMA mixed with TiO 2, Fe 2 O 3, OMMT and oxide-OMMT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of TiO2 and Fe2O3 fillers on the thermal properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)

TL;DR: In this article, the thermal properties of pure poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and PMMA filled with 5, 10, 15% and 20% of nanometric particles of titanium oxide (TiO2) and ferric oxide (Fe2O3) were investigated under air atmosphere by DSC, TGA and LOI measurements on samples prepared by solvent casting method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermoplastic starch plasticized by an ionic liquid

TL;DR: In this paper, thermoplastic starch (TPS) was plasticized by 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMIM]Cl) and the resulting electrically conductive TPS samples were less hygroscopic than glycerol plasticized TPS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Al2O3 and TiO2 nanoparticles and APP on thermal stability and flame retardance of PMMA

TL;DR: Ammonium polyphosphate (APP)-based additives and Al2O3 and TiO2 nanoparticles have been incorporated separately or combined at a 15% global percentage in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA).
Journal ArticleDOI

Fire retardant systems in poly(methyl methacrylate): Interactions between metal oxide nanoparticles and phosphinates

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of oxide nanoparticles (TiO2, Al2O3) on the thermal stability and fire behaviour of PMMA blended with phosphinate additives (Exolit OP930 and OP1311) has been studied by thermogravimetric analysis and cone calorimetry.
