Die Suche nach halogenfreien Flammschutzmitteln für Polycarbonat / Acrylnitril- Butadien-Styrol-Copolymerisat (PC/ABS) führte zur Entwicklung von Triphenylphosphat (TPP), Resorcinol-bis(diphenylphosphat) (RDP) und Bisphenol-A- bis(diphenylphosphat) (BDP). Das unvollständige Wissen über die genauen Wirkungsmechanismen dieser Arylphosphate erschwert jedoch eine gezielte Optimierung der Systeme. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden die verschiedenen Flammschutzmechanismen von BDP in PC/ABS aufgeklärt. Ein Vergleich zwischen BDP mit RDP und TPP wurde gezogen und der Einfluss weiterer Additive wie Polytetrafluorethylen (PTFE), Böhmit, Zinkborat und Talk auf das Flammschutzverhalten von BDP herausgearbeitet. Dazu wurde das thermische Abbauverhalten mittels TG und TG-FTIR aufgeklärt. Die Entflammbarkeit wurde mit LOI- und UL 94-Tests bestimmt und das Brandverhalten anhand von Messungen im Cone Calorimeter bei unterschiedlichen Bestrahlungsstärken bewertet. Die Verbrennungsrückstände wurden mittels Festkörper-FTIR und Festkörper-NMR-Messungen charakterisiert. BDP wirkt in PC/ABS in der Gasphase durch Flammenvergiftung und in der festen Phase als Vernetzungsinitiator von PC. PTFE beeinflusst das Fließverhalten der Polymerschmelze und ermöglicht so die beste Klassifizierung im UL 94-Test von PC/ABS mit BDP. BDP ist thermisch stabiler als RDP und TPP und deshalb am aktivsten mit PC in der festen Phase. Böhmit verursacht durch eine H2O-Freisetzung Hydrolysereaktionen und wirkt somit leicht antagonistisch bezüglich der Festphasenaktivität von BDP. Zinkborat reagiert mit BDP zu alpha-Zinkphosphat und Borphosphat und unterdrückt so die Wirkung von BDP als Flammenvergifter und Vernetzungsinitiator. Die Zugabe von Talk bewirkt eine Verstärkung des Rückstandes, hat aber einen antagonistischen Effekt bezüglich der Gasphasenaktivität von BDP. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit liefern ein detailliertes Verständnis der Flammschutzmechanismen von BDP und deren Abhängigkeit von der physikalischen und chemischen Umgebung. Mit diesem Wissen kann die Weiterentwicklung von BDP und anderen Arylphosphaten als Flammschutzmittel in PC/ABS gezielt optimiert werden.
The flame retardancy mechanisms of three aryl phosphates, triphenyl phosphate (TPP), resorcinol bis(diphenyl phosphate) (RDP) and bisphenol A bis(diphenyl phosphate) (BDP), in a polycarbonate/acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (PC/ABS) blend are investigated and compared. Further, the influence of polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) on viscosity and thermal decomposition is discussed in the systems PC/ABS and PC/ABS + BDP. Mechanisms are proposed based on the results of various methods. Thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and kinetics are used to study the pyrolysis. The fire behaviour is studied by means of cone calorimeter measurements at different heat fluxes and the flammability is specified by limiting oxygen index (LOI) and UL 94. Rheology measurements are used to illuminate the changed dripping behaviour due to PTFE. TPP shows only a gas phase action. RDP shows mainly a gas phase action and some condensed phase action. BDP shows a crucial condensed phase action in addition to a gas phase action. TPP and RDP are somewhat superior in terms of flammability (LOI), whereas BDP shows superior performance in forced flaming combustion (cone calorimeter). Synergistic effects between PTFE and BDP are found.
The pyrolysis combustion flow calorimeter (PCFC) as a tool for assessing the flammability of a polycarbonate (bisphenol A)/acrylonitrilebutadienestyrene (PC/ABS) blend containing different flame retardants and additives was investigated. Strategies are proposed for analysing multi-step decomposition. The heat release capacity (HRC) and total heat release (HR), obtained by PCFC, are related to the char yield and the heat of complete combustion of the volatiles. Physical affects such as dripping, wicking, and sample thickness are not described, nor are chemical effects such as flame inhibition because pyrolysis and combustion are forced to completion on a small (milligram) sample. Varying the combustion temperature or oxygen concentration results in incomplete combustion as occuring in real fires. The correlations with flammability (UL 94, LOI) and forced flaming combustion in a cone calorimeter are discussed. The best correlation is found between HR and LOI. Reasonable correlation exists between HRC and char residue with the LOI and for HRC and HR with peak heat release rate (pHRR) in the cone calorimeter. Combining results from PCFC with those from oxygen bomb or cone calorimeter tests yields an additional understanding of fire behaviour.
The influence of nano-dispersed 5 wt.% boehmite (AlOOH) and 5 wt.% AlOOH combined with bisphenol A bis(diphenyl phosphate) (BDP) in bisphenol A polycarbonate/acrylonitrilebutadienestyrene (PC/ABS) + poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE), and 1 wt.% AlOOH with and without BDP, resorcinol bis(diphenyl phosphate) (RDP), and triphenyl phosphate (TPP), on PC/ABS + PTFE has been investigated. Possible flame retardancy mechanisms are revealed. Thermogravimetry (TG) and evolved gas analysis (TG-FTIR) are used to study pyrolysis, a cone calorimeter applying different external heat fluxes is used to investigate fire behaviour, and LOI and UL 94 are used to investigate flammability. Fire residues were investigated using ATR-FTIR.
Adding 5 wt.% AlOOH decreases the peak heat release rate, as also has been reported for polymer nanocomposites with other layered structures. AlOOH releases water, and adding 5 wt.% AlOOH crucially influences thermal decomposition by enhancing the hydrolysis of PC and of BDP. For PC/ABS + PTFE + BDP + 5 wt.% AlOOH, the formation of AlPO4, for instance, results in antagonistic effects on the charring of PC + BDP, whereas synergy is observed in LOI. When only 1 wt.% AlOOH is added to the PC/ABS + PTFE with and without BDP, RDP and TPP, respectively, no significant influence is observed on thermal decomposition, UL 94, LOI or performance in the cone calorimeter.
The pyrolysis and the fire behaviour of PC/ABS containing various aryl phosphates and their combinations with aluminium hydroxide oxide, talc and zinc borate were investigated. Main interest was focused on the flame retardant effect and mechanism of aryl phosphates (e.g. BDP) in PC/ABS, especially in combination with the other additives. Therefore the thermal and thermo oxidative decomposition was characterised by the means of thermogravimetry analysis and thermogravimetry coupled with infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (TG-FTIR). The results were verified with further methods, e.g. pyrolysis-gaschromatography/mass spectroscopy (Py-GC/MS). Kinetic analysis and evolved gas analysis were used to study the pyrolysis mechanisms and to expose existent synergisms in the combined systems. The fire behaviour was investigated by cone calorimeter. The flammability was determined by LOI and UL 94. The chemical compositions of the residues were also examined.
