Combustion and thermal behaviours of the novel UV-cured intumescent flame retardant coatings containing phosphorus and nitrogen

摘要

Two methods of preparing flame retardant coatings are the physical blending of flame retardants and the chemical bonding of flame retardants onto the polymer backbone. The latter approach has a number of advantages including the possibility of evolving incombustible gases and forming a protective foam, and a longer effective lifetime, as the flame retardant moieties are not able to exude from the coating on aging.
