摘要:
Blends of polysulfones, polyethersulfones and polyphenylene ether sulfones with resorcinol based polyesters, or resorcinol based polyester carbonate polymers, and silicone copolymers have improved flame resistance. Peak heat release energy is reduced and the time to reach peak heat release is increased.
摘要:
A method to reduce haze in the production of fire resistant polycarbonate compositions comprising flame retardant salts, wherein the salt is blended with a first polycarbonate to form a concentrate, and the concentrate is then added to a second polycarbonate resin.
摘要:
A thermoplastic composition comprises polycarbonate, an impact modifier having a pH of about 3 to about 7, and a flame retardant essentially free of bromine and chlorine.
摘要:
Blends of siloxane copolymers, notably siloxane polyimides, with polyaryl esters or polyaryl ester carbonates containing linkages derived from resorcinol, show improved flame resistance, as measured by two minute and peak heat release, compared to conventional polycarbonates. In some instances transparent flame retardant blends can also be prepared. The compositions show good melt processability, high impact strength and high elongation, and can be used to make various flame retardant articles including sheets and films.
摘要:
A fire-resistant polyestercarbonate composition comprises a polyestercarbonate polymer, a polycarbonate polymer, and a salt based flame retardant. The polyestercarbonate polymer comprises a polycarbonate unit and a polyester unit, the polyester unit derived from the reaction of isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, and resorcinol. The composition can achieve UL94 V0 performance at 0.71 mm thickness. The composition can also maintain physical, mechanical, and processing properties with high loadings of TiO2.
摘要:
A expandable or expanded composition comprises either: a) an immiscible blend of polymers having more than one glass transition temperature and one of the polymers has a glass transition temperature greater than 180 degrees Celsius; b) a miscible blend of polymers having a single glass transition temperature greater than 217 degrees Celsius; or, c) a single virgin polymer having a glass transition temperature of greater than 247 degrees Celsius.
摘要:
It has now been surprisingly found that addition of a phosphorous-containing oxy acid to a glass-filled polycarbonate composition substantially improves its fire retardant performance. Thus, the present invention provides a method for making a flame-retarded glass-filled polycarbonate resin comprising adding to the resin an effective flame-retardant amount of a phosphorous-containing oxy acid. Where appropriate, the melt strength of the polycarbonate is enhanced by the addition of an antidrip agent and the performance can be further enhanced by the addition of a flame retardant. Use of such a composition results in superior fire-retardant performance.
