Flammability Performance of Ethylene-propylene-diene-terpolymer/ Polypropylene-Based Thermoplastic Elastomers

摘要

The synergistic effect of organically modified montmorillonite on flammability properties and thermal stability of magnesium hydroxide and red phosphorous flame retardant ethylene-propylene-diene-terpolymer/polypropylene thermoplastic elastomers was investigated. The results revealed that organically modified montmorillonite could improve fire safety of thermoplastic elastomer/magnesium hydroxide/ red phosphorus [TPE/MH/RP] materials by promoting the formation of compact and integrated chars.
