We investigated the flame retardancy and the mechanical properties of Nylon6 by using melamine-based halogen-free flame retardants(melamine cyanurate:MC-100 and melamine phosphate:MP-100). We chose the UL-94 method for flame retardancy and measured the tensile strength, flexural strength, flexural modulus by using UTM and impact strength by using Izod impact tester. We also tested the effect of nano-clay on flammability and mechanical properties. We obtained the V0 grade when the concentration of flame retardant was over 5 wt%. The tensile strength and flexural strength decreased and flexural modulus increased with the concentration of both flame retardant systems. The results showed that MC-100 system was better than MPP-100 system. Because of poor dispersion, we did not obtain the synergistic effect of nano-clay.

In this paper, flame-resisting PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate) sheet was manufactured and its characteristics were tested. PMMA was synthesized by bulk polymerization of a monomer methyl methacrylate with addition of phosphorous flame retardant, triethyl phosphate and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as a cross linking agent. PMMA sheet was manufactured by using the cell molding method, which does not alter or affect the existing property of PMMA. Then the characteristics of PMMA sheet were tested for the TEP content, the content and curing time of EGDMA. As TEP content increases, the length of carbonization lessens and the amount of char production increases. As a result, it strengthened the effect of flame retardants. But the hardness of the sheet decreased as TEP content increased. However, hardness increased when EGDMA was added up to 3 wt% while curing time was decreased from 3 hours to 2 hours. There was no change of hardness when more than 3 wt% of EGDMA was used.

In this study, we prepared phosphorous flame-retarding coating solutions by mixing triphosphate (3 phosphonate), phytic acid (6 phosphonate), or ammonium polyphosphate (10 phosphonate) with boric acid as a crosslinking agent and acryl resin binder. Prepared phosphorous flame-retarding coating solutions were coated onto non-woven fabrics, respectively, to obtain high flame-retarding effects. These prepared flame-retardant non-woven fabrics were evaluated using smoke density standard test (ASTM E662), limit oxygen index standard test (ISO E622), and vertical burning standard test (UL 94). Their flame-retarding effects were affected by the number of phosphonate groups. Regardless of natural or synthetic binder resins, their effects showed the following order: ammonium polyphosphate > phytic acid > triphosphate. Natural hydrocarbon compounds were also examined to determine the possible retardancy of binder resins. Results showed that natural hydrocarbon binder resins could be used for preparing fire-retardant nonwoven fabrics.

Non-halogen flame retardants have been the focus of extensive research because of environmental problems. Hexakisp-henoxycyclotriphosphazene was synthesized in order to use as the flame retardant of ABS resin. And using bisphenol A, the polymers containing a cyclotriphosphazene structure were synthesized in order to also use as the flame retardant of ABS resin. All of the synthesized polymers themselves had the excellent flame retardancy. And as their molecular weight and crosslinking density were increased, the thermal stability was increased. But when the synthesized compounds were used as the flame retardant for ABS resin, the lower molecular weight compound in these compounds showed the better flame retardancy and the better physical properties of ABS resin.

The properties of polyethylene materials exhibit good insulation and radiation resistance, but exhibit poor flame resistance. Flame retardant properties of the polyethylene were improved by the radiation induced grafting or crosslinking. When the various flame retardants were fixed onto polyethylene, the amount of fixation in grafting was increased with the increase of radiation dosages. In the case of grafting, it is necessary for high grafting yield that the polyethylene films were swelled before irradiation with ${\gamma}$-rays or electron beams. It is the suitable method for the fixation of flame retardant that polyethylene samples were blended with various flame retardants at 1$25^{\circ}C$ and then blended polymers were crosslinked by the electron beams at room temperature.

EPS패널의 열방출율과 가스유해성에 대한 연구는 꾸준히 진행되어왔다. 그러나 그 동안의 시험 결과는 KSF ISO 5660-1(콘칼로리미터) 시험규정에 의한 소형시편을 이용한 것으로 난연제의 과다투입 또는 심재의 변형이 쉬워 결과를 신뢰하기 힘들고 실제 생산되는 크기의 샌드위치패널의 난연성능을 판단하기 힘들다. 따라서, 보다 정확한 실물화재시험의 필요성이 요구되고 있다. 난연 EPS샌드위치패널과 일반EPS샌드위치패널의 실물화재 실험결과 난연EPS샌드위치패널은 기타재료의 샌드위치패널과 열방출율, 연기발생율, 부분별 온도분포, 플래시오버등과 같은 난연성능이 EPS샌드위치패널과 우레탄폼패널보다 우수하며, 글라스울과 비슷한 성능을 나태내는 것을 확인 할 수 있다. 그래서 시공성, 경제성 등의 EPS샌드위치패널의 장점을 그대로 유지하며 난연제의 코팅법을 통해 우수한 난연성능을 확보하였다.

(2, 3-Dibromopropyl) phenyl phosphate[DPP] was synthesized from 2, 3-dibromopropyl alcohol and chlorophenyl phosphate. Also, (2, 3,-dibromopropyl)phenyl octadecyl phosphate[DPOP] was synthesized from DPP and n-octadecyl chloride. Flame retardants, DPPF and DPOPF, were prepared by blending DPP and DPOP with emulsifier, respectively. The flame retardants prepared were o/w(oil in water) type emulsion flame retardants. As a result of treatments of the flame retardants on various synthetic textiles, DPPF showed only good flame retardancy, but DPOPF showed both good flame retardancy and good softness.

The article explains about development of flame retardant self-reinforced composites (FR-SRC) through compression molding technique by utilizing Polypropylene (PP), Ammonium polyphosphate (APP) and chitosan. The effect of APP and chitosan on mechanical, thermal and flame retardant properties in FR-SRC were studied. The mechanical strength of FR-SRC is enhanced than Pure SRC. However, the strength is decreased significantly with increasing the concentration of both flame retardant fillers. But comparison, chitosan filled FR-SRC is stronger than APP filled FR-SRC. In case of flame retardancy, APP is more effective than chitosan. These results can be applicable to provide light weight and recyclable flame retardant self-reinforced composites for automobile and packaging industries, etc.

Inorganic shell powder waste was added to recycled polypropylene(COPP), and its effect on the mechanical properties and flammability was investigated. Compatibilizer(Polytail H) was added to improve mechanical properties of COPP/shell composites. Also three different flame retardants($Al_2O_3$, DBDPO, $Sb_2O_3$) were added to improve flammability. Experimental results indicated that addition of compatibilizer resulted in an improved mechanical properties, and especially impact strength approached that of 100 wt% COPP. Addition of flame retardant did not result in decreased mechanical properties. UL-94 flammability test indicated that COPP/shell composite did not show good flame retardancy, however, in the case of COPP/shell composites containing flame retardant showed good flammability. flammability was found $Sb_2O_3>Al_2O_3>DBDPO$ in this order. Finally, UL-94 V-0 grade was found in COPP/shell composite with $Al_2O_3$, compatibilizer, and 40 wt% shell, and COPP/shell composites with $Sb_2O_3$.
