摘要: Pyrolysis studies of reactively flame-retarded methyl methacrylate copolymers MMA/diethyl(acryloyloxymethyl)phosphonate (MMA/DEAMP) and MMA/diethyl(methacryloyloxymethyl)phosphonate (MMA/DEMMP) have been undertaken with a view to gaining information pertinent the mechanisms their flame-retardant behavior. The homopolymer without additive diethylethylphosphonate was also investigated for comparison purposes. Each system contained 3.5 wt% phosphorus. A range techniques, namely TG EGA, DSC, SEM, laser microfurnace pyrolysis mass spectrometry, isothermal pyrolysis-GC-MS, enabled study be carried out under conditions. In case system, evolved prior polymer decomposition. Little or no char residue remained at end Thus, acted almost completely in vapor phase. MMA/DEMMP MMA/DEAMP copolymers, substantial residues were formed 1.0 2.5 wt% phosphorus contents, respectively. This is evidence that predominantly condensed phase flame retardation occurs these systems. SEM showed chars from both flaky smooth surfaces. Both copolymer samples slower decomposition rates compared PMMA, being slowest. Decomposition occurred mainly via end-chain scission MMA DEMMP appearing concurrently, which would facilitate condensed-phase action. On other hand, MMA/DEAMP, some extent inhibited so random-chain occur. As result, acrylate than copolymer. former yields more contains higher percentage does greater consistent results our previous flammability copolymers. abilities two phosphonate are assessed reference equivalent phosphate Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
