INVESTIGATION ON FLAME RETARDANT AND THERMAL PROPERTIES OF NOVEL INTUMESCENT FLAME RETARDANT LOW-DENSITY POLYETHYLENE COMPOSITES

摘要

A novel intumescent flame retardant low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composite was prepared based on bamboo fiber (BF) and silica-gel microencapsulated ammonium polyphosphate(MCAPP).The synergistic effects between BF and MCAPP on the flame retardant and thermal properties of flame retardant LDPE composites were investigated.The results show that when the ratio of BF/MCAPP is 1:1,the flame retardant LDPE composite shows excellent flame retardant properties.
