Description

Difunctional ammonium polyphosphate flame retardant, preparation method thereof and flame-retardant thermoplastic polyurethane composite material Technical Field The invention belongs to the technical field of flame retardants, and relates to a difunctional ammonium polyphosphate flame retardant, a preparation method thereof and a flame-retardant thermoplastic polyurethane composite material. Background With the wide application of polyurethane elastomer (TPU) in the fields of electronic appliances, automobile parts, cable coating and the like, the fire hazard caused by the high flammability of the TPU is increasingly prominent, and the fire accident caused by the fire hazard has caused serious casualties and economic losses. Therefore, developing a high-efficiency flame-retardant system suitable for a high-molecular material has become a key subject for improving the safety of the material. Among the numerous additive flame retardants, ammonium polyphosphate (APP) has been attracting attention because of its excellent phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic flame retardant effect, low cost, low addition amount, and high thermal stability. Compared with the traditional halogen-containing flame retardant, APP has the characteristics of low smoke, low toxicity and no corrosive gas, is regarded as an environment-friendly flame retardant, and is recognized as a main stream substitute of the halogen-based flame retardant. Currently, commercially available ammonium polyphosphate is largely classified into crystalline form I and crystalline form II. Wherein, the crystal I is of a short chain structure, the average polymerization degree (n) is less than 100, the water solubility is high, the moisture absorption is easy, the thermal stability is poor, and the crystal I is mainly suitable for systems such as water-based paint, adhesive and the like. The crystal II is of a long-chain structure, the average degree of polymerization (n) is generally more than 1000, and the crystal II has extremely low water solubility, excellent hydrophobicity and thermal stability and wide processing adaptability, so that the crystal II is widely applied to the fields of thermoplastic plastics, thermosetting resins, textiles, wood and the like and is the main choice for halogen-free flame retardant modification of the polymer materials at present. However, despite the significant potential of crystalline form II ammonium polyphosphate in the flame retardant field, its use in nonpolar polymeric matrices such as TPU still faces a key bottleneck. Firstly, APP only serves as an acid source and a gas source to participate in flame-retardant reaction, lacks a char-forming component, and is difficult to form a compact expanded carbon layer alone in a combustion process, so that flame-retardant efficiency is limited. Secondly, more critical is that there is a severe polarity difference between APP and TPU matrix, resulting in poor interfacial compatibility between the two. Because APP has a strongly polar surface, while TPU is a nonpolar or weakly polar polymer, APP particles are difficult to achieve uniform dispersion in TPU, and are very prone to agglomeration and form significant phase interface defects. In practical application, the weak interface bonding not only causes stress concentration when the material is stressed, so that mechanical properties such as tensile strength, elongation at break and the like are obviously deteriorated, but also the agglomeration phenomenon damages microscopic distribution uniformity of the flame retardant, so that the synergistic flame retardant effect of phosphorus and nitrogen cannot be fully exerted, a continuous and compact expanded carbon layer is difficult to form, finally, the flame retardant efficiency is greatly reduced, and even the flame retardant grade requirement of practical application cannot be met. Therefore, how to improve the interfacial compatibility of APP and TPU matrix and give it a certain char forming ability while maintaining the excellent flame retardant property of APP has become a technical problem to be solved in the current flame retardant modification field.
