Abstract
Salts based on melamine and mineral acids (boric and phosphoric) are obtained, which were investigated as antipyrenes for polyamide-6 and polypropylene. It is shown that the introduction of these salts in polyamide-6, in contrast to polypropylene, leads to an increase in the fire resistance of the initial polymer. Thus, it is established that the physical-mechanical properties of polyamide-6, depending on the type of salt and its concentration, remain at the level of the initial polymer or significantly increase.
