A flame retardant containing phosphorus and nitrogen was synthesized using phytic acid dicyandiamide, it subsequently used to prepare flame-retardant cellulosic paper via an impregnation method. Vertical limiting oxygen index (LOI) were evaluate the retardancy of paper. The modified characterized with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetry (TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD)...

Lithium-ion batteries are being increasingly used and deployed commercially. Cell-level improvements that address flammability characteristics thermal runaway currently intensively tested explored. In this study, three additives—namely, lithium oxalate, sodium fumarate malonate—which exhibit fire-retardant properties investigated with respect to their incorporation into graphite anodes electro/...

Phosphorus-based flame retardants were incorporated into different, easily preparable matrices, such as polymeric thermoset resins and paraffin as a proposed model for polyolefins and investigated for their flame retardancy performance. The favored mode of action of each flame retardant was identified in each respective system and at each respective concentration. Thermogravimetric analysis was...
