Flame retardancy and thermal degradation mechanism of epoxy resin composites based on a DOPO substituted organophosphorus oligomer

Polyurethane (PU) composites reinforced with graphene nanosheets (GNSs) were prepared by in situpolymerization. Graphene nanosheets, which were derived from chemically reduced graphite oxide (GO) nanosheets, were characterized by solid-state 13C MAS NMR, XRD and FTIR. A morphological study showed that, due to the formation of chemical bonds, the GNS was dispersed well in the PU matrix. With the incorporation of 2.0 wt% of GNSs, the tensile strength and storage modulus of the PU increased by 239% and 202%, respectively. The nanocomposites displayed high electrical conductivity, and good thermal stability of PU was also achieved. The facile and rapid technique presented here will provide an effective and promising method of preparing graphene-based polymer composites.

In situ polymerization of graphene nanosheets and polyurethane with enhanced mechanical and thermal properties

Intumescent flame retardant poly(butylene succinate) (IFRPBS) composites with enhanced fire resistance were prepared using graphene as synergist. The morphology of fracture surfaces of the composites was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The limiting oxygen index (LOI) values increased from 23.0 for the pure PBS to 31.0 for IFRPBS with 20 wt % IFR loading. The addition of graphene further improved the LOI values of the composites and exhibited excellent antidripping properties. The UL-94 V0 materials were obtained with a formulation of 18 wt % IFR and 2 wt % graphene. MFI measurement indicated that the presence of graphene significantly enhanced the melt viscosity and restrained the melt dripping. The thermal degradation and gas products of IFRPBS/graphene systems were monitored by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), real time Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (RTFTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis-Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (TG-FTIR).
