摘要:
The present invention relates to low triphenyl phosphate, high phosphorous content aryl phosphates with high ortho alkylation that are suitable for use as flame retardant compositions, processes for their preparation, and their use as flame retardants.
摘要:
Brominated styrenic polymer is recovered from solution in a vaporizable solvent by converting the solution in a devolatilization extruder into a brominated styrenic polymer melt or flow and a separate vapor phase comprised predominately of vaporizable solvent, recovering the melt or flow from the devolatilization extruder, and allowing or causing the melt or flow to solidify. The solidified brominated styrenic polymer can be subdivided into a powder or pelletized form. Pellets so made have improved hardness and/or crush strength properties along with reduced formation of fines. Brominated anionic styrenic polymer is preferably used in the process.
摘要:
Disclosed are flame retardant compositions comprised of (a) brominated anionic styrenic polymer, and (b) at least one polybrominated alpha-omega diphenylalkane having a total of at least 6 bromine atoms directly bonded to the phenyl rings and in the range of 1 to 6 carbon atoms in the alkylene group disposed between the phenyl groups, and specified flame retarded polymer compositions with which have been blended (a) and (b) individually or in combination.
摘要:
New branched or star-branched styrene polymeric, telomeric, and monomeric product distributions, their preparation, their use as raw materials for bromination to produce flame retardants, the flame retardants themselves, and their use as flame retardants in various polymeric substrates are described.

摘要:
Despite the frangibility of additive-free granules of brominated anionic styrenic polymer, it has been found possible by use of special mechanical processing to provide pellets of unadulterated brominated anionic styrenic polymer having a bromine content of at least about 50 wt% and in which at least about 70 wt% (preferably at least about 75 wt%) of the pellets are retained on a standard US No. 40 sieve and no more than about 30 wt% (preferably no more than about 25 wt%) are retained on a standard US No. 5 sieve. In preferred embodiments such pelletized anionic styrenic polymer is brominated anionic polystyrene having a bromine content of at least about 67 wt%, e.g., in the range of about 67 to about 71 wt%. Also preferred are pelletized brominated anionic styrenic polymers in which the melt flow index (ASTM D 1238-99) at 220°C, 2.16 kg is at least 4 g/10 min and preferably is at least 5 g/10 min. Another embodiment of this invention is a method of preparing pelletized unadulterated brominated anionic styrenic polymer which method comprises: A) forming strands of molten unadulterated brominated anionic styrenic polymer; B) submitting said strands to cooling and downwardly directed forced air flow on a porous conveyor belt whereby said strands are broken into pellets; and C) causing said pellets to drop into a classifier that removes fines from the pellets.
