    <title language="eng">Bio-sourced Flame Retardant System for Engineering Plastics</title>
    <abstract language="eng">Main message: Intumescent flame retardant degradation products react with the lignocellulose hydroxyl groups by esterification, causing enhanced effectiveness in char formation [1]. The aim of this work is to prepare polyamide 11 with lower flammability by modifying it with a plant-based flame retardant system. An innovation is the thermal modification of plant raw materials to establish bio-sourced flame-retardant systems dedicated to engineering materials.&#13;
Introduction: Using plant fillers to modify engineering materials raises concerns due to too low thermal stability and problems during processing. However, substances participating in char formation, such as cellulose and lignin, have higher decomposition temperatures than the processing temperature of most engineering plastics. Appropriate preparation of lignocellulosic materials through modification by thermal methods will enable their partial decomposition in controlled conditions and eliminate components with low thermal stability.&#13;
Results and Discussion: For PA11, the heat release (HRR) curve is characterized by two peaks (Fig.1), with a maximum value at the end of burning. The flame retardant systems caused the curves to flatten, which was especially visible for samples with the highest sunflower husk share. The maximum values of heat release rate (pHRR) for samples with FRs varied from 991 to 626 kW/m2 and were much lower compared to PA11 (2152 kW/m2) and MPP (1234 kW/m2). All samples with FRs ignited much earlier than the reference materials, especially compared to unmodified polymer (Tab.1). The maximum average rate of heat emission (MARHE), used to forecast flame spread, decreased compared to PA11 (maximum by 30%) and slightly to MPP. Decreases were also noted in the case of total heat emission (THE), corresponding to the total heat released at the end of flame combustion. The values range from 112 to 127, and depending on the series, an increase (SH) or decrease (SHT) with the growth of the amount of bio-based components was  observed. The reduction in THE follows from incomplete combustion as an effect of char forming or reduced combustion efficiency [2]. Char formation was proved by an increase in the yield of residue , while a slight decrease in the effective heat of combustion (EHC) suggests activity in the gas phase. Smoke emission was assessed by specific extinction area (SEA). The SEA reduction was noted only for the MPP sample, and introducing sunflower husks increased the smoke released.</abstract>
