Abstract:
Embodiments described herein are directed to oligomeric phosphonates and polyphosphonates that have non-reactive end groups, methods for making such oligomeric phosphonates and polyphosphonates, and compositions containing such oligomeric phosphonates and polyphosphonates. The oligomeric phosphonates and polyphosphonates of such embodiments may be incorporated into engineering polymeric into which they are mixed to make polymer compositions having good flame retardancy and mechanical properties.
Abstract:
Embodiments described herein are directed to compositions comprising nitrogen containing SMA oligomers or polymers in combination with the phosphonate oligomers or polymers. These compositions may be combined with other polymer resins to produce polymer compositions having good electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties combined with flame retardancy.
Abstract:
Methods for curing unsaturated polyesters or vinyl esters in compositions that include oligomeric phosphates, oligomeric phosphonates, and combinations thereof and compositions and cured polymers made by these methods are described herein.
Abstract:
Polyester co-polyphosphonates including of phosphonates covalently incorporated with polyesters and methods for making such polyester co-polyphosphonates are described herein. The polyester co-phosphonates and compositions prepared from these compounds exhibit an excellent combination of processing characteristics, mechanical and fire resistant properties.
Abstract:
Disclosed are oligomeric phosphonates, and in particular, hyperbranched oligophosphonates, that include oligophosphonates, random or block co-oligo(phosphonate ester)s and co-oligo(phosphonate carbonate)s produced using a condensation process terminated with hydroxyl, epoxy, vinyl, vinyl ester, isopropenyl, isocyanate groups, and the like. These materials can be used as a reactive additive to other polymers, oligomers or monomer mixtures to impart flame resistance without diminishing melt processability which is important in the fabrication of polymers for many applications.
