Abstract:
The invention relates to a process for preparing bromine- containing polymer, comprising a Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of tetrabromoxylylene dihalide, or tetrabromoxylylene dihalide in combination with pentabromobenzyl halide, with a reactant having one or more six-membered aromatic rings, wherein the reaction takes place in a solvent in the presence of a Friedel-Crafts catalyst, and isolating from the reaction mixture the bromine-containing polymer. The so-formed polymers and their use as flame retardants form additional aspects of the invention.
Abstract:
A liquid flame retardant composition which comprises one or more flame retarding agents, which are the epoxides obtainable by reacting tetrabromobisphenol A with epichlorohydrin and their end-capped derivatives represented by Formula (1) is provided. The liquid composition is especially useful in the preparation of rigid polyurethane foams.
Abstract:
The invention provides pentabromobenzyl moiety containing hydroxy-functional compounds which are useful as flame-retardants in flexible and rigid polyurethane foams and also in rigid polyisocyanurate foams. Processes for preparing the compounds, polyurethane and polyisocyanurate foams containing the compounds are also provided by the invention.
Abstract:
Compositions and methods for alleviating or preventing discoloration in flame-retarded flexible polyurethane foams, known as "scorching", are provided. The anti-scorch compositions contain antioxidant agents combined with at least one, and preferably with two, additional compounds selected from -diketone, epoxy compounds, organic phosphites or phosphonites, and metal salts of carboxylic acids.
Abstract:
The invention provides a process for preparing bromine- containing polymers, comprising a Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of pentabromobenzyl halide with a polymer reactant which contains one or more six-membered aromatic ring(s) in its repeat unit, in the presence of at least one Friedel- Crafts catalyst. The so-formed bromine-containing polymers, having pendent -CH 2 C 6 Br 5 groups attached to at least a portion of the six-membered aromatic rings of the polymer, with a carbon ring atom of said six-membered aromatic ring being bonded to the aliphatic carbon of said -CH 2 C 6 Br 5 pendent group, are also provided. These bromine-containing polymers are useful as flame retarding agents.
Abstract:
The invention relates to compounds of the formula Ar(- CH2C6Br5)y, wherein Ar indicates a structure comprising one or more six-membered aromatic ring(s) and -CH 2 C 6 Br 5 indicates a pentabromobenzyl group, characterized in that at least one carbon atom of said six-membered aromatic ring(s) is bonded to the benzylic carbon of said -CH 2 C 6 Br 5 group, wherein y, which indicates the number of the -CH 2 C 6 Br 5 groups in said compound, is not less than 1. Processes for preparing the compounds and their use as flame retardants are also disclosed.
