Abstract
Basic magnesium hydroxide sulfate whisker (MHSH) was used as flame‐retarded synergistic agent of intumescent flame retardant (IFR) system, and to prepare flame‐retarded PBS composites. Furthermore, the mechanics performance, the limiting oxygen index (LOI) analysis and the flame retardant properties of the composites were investigated. Experimental data show that with the incorporation of MHSH, the LOI values and the UL‐94 levels of composites improved in comparison with those of the composites without MHSH addition, indicating the synergistic effect of MHSH in composites. Furthermore, when the IFR and MHSH loading were 23% and 2 wt%, respectively, the UL‐94 level achieved V0 rate. Simultaneously, as indicated by mechanical properties, illustrating that MHSH played a reinforcement effect in composites.
