Cone calorimeter study of polyethylene flame retarded with expandable graphite and intumescent fire-retardant additives

Author: Kruger, HR ; Focke, WW ; Mhike, W ; Taute, A ; Roberson, A ; Ofosu, O Date: Oct 2014 Polyethylene was flame retarded with two intumescent-type additives, 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid phosphate and ethylenediamine phosphate, which differ with respect to their decomposition onset temperatures, along with varying ratios of two grades ...

Flexible PVC flame retarded with expandable graphite

Author: Focke, WW ; Muiambo, H ; Mhike, W ; Kruger, HJ ; Ofosu, O Date: Feb 2014 The utility of expandable graphite as a flame retardant for PVC, plasticized with 60 phr of a phosphate ester, was investigated. Cone calorimeter results, at a radiant flux of 35 kW m 2, revealed that adding only 5 wt.% expandable graphite ... Read more
Morphology, thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of poly(lactic acid)/expandable graphite (PLA/EG) flame retardant composites

Author: Mngomezulu, ME ; Luyt, AS ; Mathew, Maya J Date: Dec 2017 This work reports on the effect of expandable graphite (EG) on the morphology, thermal and dynamic mechanical properties of flame retardant poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/EG composites. The composites were prepared by melt-mixing and their structure, ... Read more
Poly(lactic acid)-starch/expandable graphite (PLA-starch/EG) flame retardant composites

Author: Mngomezulu, ME ; Luyt, AS ; Chapple, Stephen A ; John, Maya J Date: Jan 2018 This work reports on the effect of commercial expandable graphite (EG) on the flammability and thermal decomposition properties of PLA-starch blend. The PLA-starch/EG composites were prepared by melt-mixing and their thermal stability, volatile ... Read more
