Reducing the Combustibility of Polycaproamide Using a Mixture of Polyelemental Flame Retardants

  • Published:
Fibre Chemistry Aims and scope

A study was carried out on the effect of 1,1,9-trihydroperfluoro-1-nonanol immobilized on montmorillonite nanoclay in combination with decabromodiphenyl oxide, perfluorinated antimony alcoholate, and diantimony trioxide on the combustibility of polycaproamide. X-ray structural analysis and differential scanning calorimetry were used to establish a relationship between the combustion resistance of the heterochain polymer and its morphology attributed to reorganization of the amorphouscrystalline structure due to the effect of the introduced combustion retarder, which causes redistribution of the fractions of the α- and γ-crystalline forms in the polymorphous composition of the polycaproamide, leading to a fluorine-containing material with reduced combustibility.
