Effect of modified chicken eggshell and intumescent flame retardant on flame retardancy and smoke suppression of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer

摘要: 为了提高热塑性聚氨酯弹性体(TPU)的阻燃抑烟性能,以废弃鸡蛋壳(CES)为原料,采用沸石咪唑酯骨架材料-8 (ZIF-8)对其改性,合成了ZIF-8-CES杂化物。与纯TPU相比,当TPU中添加20wt%膨胀型阻燃剂(IFR)和5wt%ZIF-8-CES时,TPU复合材料的热释放速率峰值(pHRR)和烟释放速率峰值(pSPR)分别降低到242 kW·m−2和0.151 m2·s−1,极限氧指数(LOI)值到达31.5%,垂直燃烧(UL-94)达到了V-0级,ZIF-8-CES与IFR在TPU中具有较好的协效阻燃效果。这主要是由于ZIF-8-CES与IFR在高温下生成氧化锌、磷酸钙和亚磷酸钙,起到催化成炭和增强炭层的作用,从而提高了TPU复合材料的阻燃、抑烟性能。

Abstract: In order to improve the flame retardant and smoke suppression properties of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU), ZIF-8-CES hybrid was synthesized by using waste chicken eggshell (CES) as raw material and modified by zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8). Compared with pure TPU, when 20wt% intumescent flame retardant (IFR) and 5wt% ZIF-8-CES are added to TPU, the peak heat release rate (pHRR) and peak smoke release rate (pSPR) of TPU composites are reduced to 242 kW·m−2 and 0.151 m2·s−1, respectively. The limiting oxygen index (LOI) value reached 31.5%, and the vertical combustion (UL-94) reached V-0 level. ZIF-8-CES and IFR have good synergistic flame retardant effect in TPU. This is mainly because ZIF-8-CES and IFR generate zinc oxide, calcium phosphate and calcium phosphite at high temperatures, which play a role in catalyzing carbon formation and enhancing the carbon layer, thereby improving the flame retardant and smoke suppression properties of TPU composites. -
