Phytic acid (PA) is one of the widely used flame retardants (FRs) to treat a variety fabrics owing its high phosphorus content ca. 28 wt% (with respect molecular weight), abundance, non-toxicity, and biocompatibility. The current review discusses state-of-the-art PA-based FRs for natural such as cotton wool. possibilities making PA FR-based multi-functional having antimicrobial, conductive, hydrophobic properties are reported by virtue synergistic benefits associated with chitosan, silicon,...
By-products management from industrial and natural (agriculture, aviculture, others) activities products are critical for promoting sustainability, reducing pollution, increasing storage space, minimising landfills, energy consumption, facilitating a circular economy. One of the sustainable waste approaches is utilising them in developing biocomposites. Biocomposites eco-friendly materials because their sustainability environmental benefits that have comparable performance properties to...
Synthesis of a novel phosphorus and triazole-functionalized flame-retardant (FR) monomer (PTFM) using azide–alkyne "click" reaction between triprop-2-ynyl phosphate 2-azidoethanol that can impart intumescent FR property to polyurethane foams (PUFs) has been reported. Polyurethane triazole (PUTFs) were prepared the as-synthesized PTFM hydroxylated castor polyol with hydroxyl value ∼310 mg KOH/g for application as reactive rigid foams. characterized structural elucidation Fourier transform...
In the present study, ability of a coating zinc oxide (ZnO) powder to improve fire-safety wood exposed radiative heat flux was examined, focusing on ignition time wood. To test ZnO's efficiency substrate, two different amounts ZnO (0.5 and 1 g per dm2) were applied surface from cone calorimeter wherein pristine piece with no treatment taken as control. The experiments conducted at three irradiation levels i.e., 20, 35, 50 kWm-2. results showed that applying significantly increased (TTI). For...
A novel class of phosphorous‐containing polyurethane triazoles (PUTs) with self‐extinguishing property is reported. Initially, a set new urethane diazide monomers were synthesized by reacting diisocyanates (DI) (isophorone (IPDI), hexamethylene (HDI), and toluene (TDI)) 2‐azidoethanol characterized FTIR, 1 H NMR, 13 C ESI‐MS analysis. Later, the corresponding PUTs via azide–alkyne cycloaddition diazides triprop‐2‐ynyl phosphate under solvent‐free catalyst‐free conditions at 80°C thermal...
In this article, a microemulsion method for preparation of magnetite composite polymer nanoparticles Fe3O4@poly(styrene-methacrylic acid) (MNP@PSMA) crosslinked with1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDD) insitu with carboxyl functionality on the surface has been reported. Structure and morphology was studied by Fourier Transform Infrared spctroscopy (FTIR), X ray Diffraction (XRD), Thermal Gravimetric Analyser (TGA), Vibrating Sample Magnetometer (VSM) Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). VSM...
