Abstract
A series of novel flame-retardant thermosets were prepared by melt blending of phosphonate–triazine-based compound TNTP, triazine-based compound TN, and phosphonate-based compound TP, respectively. The curing systems were consisted of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) and 4,4′-diamino-diphenyl sulfone (DDS). The thermal behaviors and flame retardancy of these flame-retardant thermosets were investigated in terms of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), limiting oxygen index (LOI), vertical burning test (UL-94) and cone calorimeter tests. TGA results showed that the char formation of flame-retardant thermosets could be significantly improved due to the presence of phosphonate moiety rather than triazine unit. It was found that the excellent flame retardant effect of TNTP was not contributed by either single group of phosphonate or triazine. An obvious synergic-effect on flame retardant produced by a combination of phosphonate and triazine moiety. The LOI value of TNTP-3/DGEBA/DDS could achieve 32.4% and ...
