Journal ArticleDOI
The mechanism of action of tin compounds as flame retardants and smoke suppressants for polyester thermosets
TL;DR: The mechanism of the flame retardance of inorganic tin additives has been investigated by examining their effects in three halogenated polyester thermosets, cross-linked with styrene as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Studies of Fire-Retardant Polyester Thermosets Using Thermal Methods
TL;DR: The use of thermal methods in the study of flammability and fire retardant action is discussed and compared with the standard test methods in this paper, where the authors provide an overview with examples drawn from continuing studies on polyester resins, especially those containing halogenated monomers.
Journal ArticleDOI
A study of flame retarded polymers by thermal methods
TL;DR: The use of molybdenum trioxide as a flame retardant in halogen-containing polyester resins has been studied as mentioned in this paper, and it has been shown that MoO 3 has a condensed phase mechanism, to increase the number of decomposition steps, to produce more char, and to alter the structure of the char.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal degradation of polyester thermosets prepared using dibromoneopentyl glycol
TL;DR: In this paper, the degradation of polyester thermosets has been studied in three main stages: maleic anhydride, phthalic anoxide, dibromoneopentyl glycol, and styrene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal degradation studies of molybdenum containing polyester thermosets
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of molybdenum trioxide on the thermal degradation of a series of chlorinated and brominated polyester thermosets was investigated.
