Synergistic Effect of Triphenyl Phosphate on Non-Flammability of Polymer Materials

The aim of this study is to give information about the synergistic effect of triphenylphosphate (TPP), one of the important phosphorus flame retardants, on the non-flammability properties of polymer materials (polymer nanocomposites and polymer foams). For this, TPP is added to the polymer matrix such as polyurethane (PU), polyethylene (PE), polystyrene (PS), polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) in different percentages and produced by extrusion, polymerization and injection methods. The results of UL-94, limiting oxygen index (LOI) and cone calorimetry analysis performed to determine the flammability property of polymer materials were compared with pure polymer and the synergistic effect of TPP on the flammability properties of polymer materials was discussed.
