Aluminium trihydroxide was produced from anodisation residues and demonstrated as a PIN flame retardant in polyethylene. Anodisation of aluminium items uses an acid bath to generate a corrosion resistant surface. Waste from a Brazil aluminium plant was a humid solid....
A molecule combining bismuth with melamine phosphate shows synergistic fire and smoke reduction in epoxy. Phosphoric acid was reacted with pentaerythritol, then with melamine, then with bismuth oxide (Bi2O3, 10% w/w) and additional melamine. The resulting PPMS-Bi [1],...
Looking for solvent-free, low toxicity, reactive phosphorus PIN flame retardancy for polyamide (PA6). A reaction-extrusion process was tested to generate phosphorus-containing modified polyamide, containing also phosphorus oligomers. This was then melt-spun to textile...
Research shows that the PIN chemical NiNH4PO4.H2O can reduce flammability and smoke emission from epoxy resin. Three different nano-morphologies of nickel ammonia phosphate (NiAP) were synthesised in a one-step precipitation reaction, then tested in 0 – 7 % loading in...
Thursday November 19th – 10h00 – 11h30 (CET) Energy transition in transport and fire safety Stakeholder dialogue webinar addressing the specific fire safety challenges of electric vehicles. Experience for fire testing of e-vehicle batteries. Fire risks of e-vehicles...
