The influence of environmental ageing on the reaction to fire of flame‐retarded polymers is
reviewed. Six types of stimuli have been identified as the most relevant parameters inducing …

Polylactic acid (PLA), characterized by its biodegradability, easy processing, and
environmental friendliness, is regarded as one of the ideal substitutes for petroleum-based …

Most flame‐retarded polymer products need to be highly durable throughout their service
lifetime in many demanding applications areas such as construction, transportation, electric …

A novel type of intrinsic flame retardant thermosetting resin without halogen and phosphorus
elements (BDS) was developed based on building crosslinked network with a new disulfide …

A novel reactive flame retardant (DPT) for epoxy resin (EP) was successfully synthesized
through the reaction between 9, 10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide …

Fabricating an effective synergism between the condensed phase (char-forming) and the
gas phase (free-radical quenching) is recently considered to be a very promising way to …

Three novel alkyl sulfone bridged phosphorus (P) compounds namely 6, 6′-(sulfonylbis
(ethane-2, 1-diyl)) bis (dibenzo [c, e][1, 2] oxaphosphinine 6-oxide)(SEDOPO), sulfonylbis …

Cross-functional additives were carefully designed for polypropylene (PP) composites to
enhance the flame retardancy, UV resistance, and mechanical properties. In this work, first …

A novel and multifunctional flame retardant synergist, N-alkoxy hindered amine containing
silane (Si-NORs), was synthesized by combining N-alkoxy hindered amine and silane …

To further investigate the presence of a radical mechanism in the curing process of
phthalonitrile resins, a conventional radical initiation unit (disulfide segment) was introduced …
