MELAMINE PHOSPHATE 

Flame-retardant effect and mechanism of

melamine phosphate on silicone thermoplastic

elastomer

Melamine /ˈmɛləmiːn/ (About this soundlisten) is an organic compound with the formula C3H6N6. This white solid is a trimer of cyanamide, with a 1,3,5-triazine skeleton. Like cyanamide, it contains 67% nitrogen by mass, and its derivatives have fire retardant properties due to its release of nitrogen gas when burned or charred. Melamine can be combined with formaldehyde and other agents to produce melamine resins. Such resins are characteristically durable thermosetting plastic used in high pressure decorative laminates such as Formica, melamine dinnerware, laminate flooring, and dry erase boards. Melamine foam is used as insulation, soundproofing material and in polymeric cleaning products, such as Magic Eraser.

 

Melamine is sometimes illegally added to food products in order to increase the apparent protein content.[4] Ingestion of melamine may lead to reproductive damage, or bladder or kidney stones, and bladder cancer. It is also an irritant when inhaled or in contact with the skin or eyes. The United Nations’ food standards body, the Codex Alimentarius Commission, has set the maximum amount of melamine allowed in powdered infant formula to 1 mg/kg and the amount of the chemical allowed in other foods and animal feed to 2.5 mg/kg. While not legally binding, the levels allow countries to ban importation of products with excessive levels of melamine.

Melamine is reported to have an oral median lethal dose (LD50) of 3248 mg/kg based on rat data. It is also an irritant when inhaled or in contact with the skin or eyes. The reported dermal LD50 is >1000 mg/kg for rabbits. A study by Soviet researchers in the 1980s suggested that melamine cyanurate, commonly used as a fire retardant,[21] could be more toxic than either melamine or cyanuric acid alone.[22] For rats and mice, the reported LD50 for melamine cyanurate was 4.1 g/kg (given inside the stomach) and 3.5 g/kg (via inhalation), compared to 6.0 and 4.3 g/kg for melamine and 7.7 and 3.4 g/kg for cyanuric acid, respectively.

Flame Retardant

A flame retardant melamine phosphate or fire retardant is a material that prevents fire or slows the spread of fire. Used in easy to burn materials as Plastics, Textiles or Coating.

 

 

Function of Flame Retardant

Absorb the burning heat to cool down the temperature and prevent polymer further decomposing.

Generate incombustible gas or foaming or liquid to cover the polymer surface to choke the burning.

Eliminate the radical.

Emit inert gas to dilute condensation of oxygen in burning area.

A toxicology study in animals conducted after recalls of contaminated pet food concluded that the combination of melamine and cyanuric acid in diet does lead to acute kidney injury in cats.[23] A 2008 study produced similar experimental results in rats and characterized the melamine and cyanuric acid in contaminated pet food from the 2007 outbreak.[24] A 2010 study from Lanzhou University attributed kidney failure in humans to uric acid stone accumulation after ingestion of melamine resulting in a rapid aggregation of metabolites such as cyanuric acid diamide (ammeline) and cyanuric acid.[25] A 2013 study demonstrated that melamine can be metabolized to cyanuric acid by gut bacteria. In particular, Klebsiella terrigena was determined to be a factor in melamine toxicity. In culture, K. terrigena was shown to convert melamine to cyanuric acid directly. Cyanuric acid was detected in the kidneys of rats administered melamine alone, and the concentration after Klebsiella colonization was increased

Different from the traditional silicone materials, which are not easily ignited, silicone thermoplastic

elastomer (Si-TPE) has poor flame retardant properties due to the existence of the hard segments in its

molecular chains. In this paper, melamine phosphate (MP), a kind of halogen free flame retardant, was

adopted to improve the flame retardancy of Si-TPE. The results showed that MP played the role of flame

retardant in both gas and condensed phases due to its nitrogen-phosphorus-containing structure. Inert

gases, including nitrogen, steam and ammonia which were released by the degradation of melamine

during burning, could take away the heat and dilute the oxygen in the gas phase, and further working

with the phosphoric acid, which was generated in the condensed phase, to form a denser and firmer

char layer. In this way, Si-TPE/MP composite with good flame retardancy was obtained. Interestingly, MP

had little influence on the thermal processability of Si-TPE, even at 28 wt% content, ascribing to its two

opposite effects on Si-TPE, but enhanced the comprehensive mechanical properties of Si-TPE with

suitable loadings, e.g. when the MP content was 28 wt%, the composite reached UL94-V0 rating, and its

tensile strength and Young’s modulus were 3.5 MPa and 37.7 MPa, respectively.ynergetic enhancement on flame retardancy by melamine phosphate modified lignin in rice husk ash filled P34HB biocomposites

1. Introduction

Silicone thermoplastic elastomer (Si-TPE) is a kind of synthetic

polymer consisting of a segmented structure of alternating so

blocks (organic silicon segments) that act as the elastic portion and

hard blocks melamine phosphate (plastic polymer segments) that act as the thermally

reversible cross-linking sites.1-3 This special structure endows SiTPE with not only the usual properties of silicone elastomers,

e.g. high and low temperature resistance, weather resistance,

superior corrosion resistance, low surface tension, small viscosity

and temperature coefficient, non-toxicity and good biocompatibility,4-9 but also the possibility of being thermally processed via

traditional plastic processing methods without chemical crosslinking, as well as controllable mechanical properties.10,11

The formation of the char barrier (Si-O, Si-C) at high

temperature is absolutely essential for the ame retardant

properties of a silicone material,12 but the introduction of the

hard blocks disturbs the regularity of Si-TPE molecular chains,

and decreases the proportion of silicone elements in it,

contrarily resulting in its worse ame retardancy and narrow

applications.13 To improve the ame retardancy of a silicone

material, various methods, mainly based on inorganic ame

retardants, have been adopted.12,14-16 However, these inorganic

ame retardants, e.g. Fe2O3, red phosphorus and platinum, are

commonly incompatible with the matrix, causing poor processability and mechanical properties as well as the dissatised

ame retardancy of the matrix. In recent years, researchers have

transferred their attentions to the organic ame retardants, e.g.

melamine, pentaerythritol, graphite, etc.,

4,17,18 but the large

additive content of organic ame retardants is usually required

to achieve the good ame retardancy, which not only deteriorates the processability and mechanical properties of the

materials, but also increases the cost.

Melamine phosphate (MP), a typical halogen-free phosphorus ame retardant, is the reaction product of melamine

and phosphoric acid, thus combining the ame retardancy of

both melamine and phosphoric acid. When burning, MP can

release phosphorus acids to carbonize and construct a stable

and dense charring barrier in the condensed phase to decrease

the ammability of a material,19 and nitrogen, bonded to the

triazine rings in MP, can also pass to the gaseous phase,20

further insulating the material from re. It has been reported

that phosphorous and silicone have synergistic ame retardancy,21-24 so MP has been widely used in some silicone contained materials to improve their ame retardancy. For

example, Li et al.25 adopted MP to promote the ame retardancy

of a,u-dihydroxy polydimethylsiloxane, and found that MP

could accelerate the thermal decomposition of this silicone

rubber to form oxygen and heat insulated barrier, thus effectively improving its limiting oxygen index.

In our previous work,26 a novel Si-TPE consisting of urea

groups and the branched organic polysiloxane was developed.

This Si-TPE had quite good thermal processability and high

mechanical properties, but deteriorated ame retardancy due to

the existence of urea groups. Here, to improve the ame

retardancy of this novel Si-TPE, MP was adopted, and the effects

of MP content on the melt uidity, molecular structure, combusting process, char morphologies as well as mechanical

properties of Si-TPE were systematically studied, which would

surely extend the application elds of this novel Si-TPE
