Exfoliated clay nanocomposites of flame retarded/glass fibre reinforced polyamide 6 were prepared by twin-screw extrusion compounding. A flame retardant system based on phosphorus compounds and zinc borate was used at various levels in glass fibre reinforced PA6 and nanocomposites. Thermal stability and combustion behaviours were evaluated by TGA, LOI, UL94 and cone calorimetry. Substitution of a certain fraction of the flame retardant with nanoclays was found to significantly reduce the peak heat release rate and delay ignition in the cone calorimeter. Moreover, remarkable improvements were obtained in LOI along with maintained UL94 ratings. Residue characterization by FTIR, XRD and SEM ascribed the enhanced flame retardancy of nanocomposite formulations to the formation of a glassy boron/aluminium phosphate barrier reinforced by clay layers at the nanoscale. The physically strong and consolidated barriers formed from nanocomposites were much more effective in impeding heat and mass transfer compared to those from conventional formulations.

Thermal evolution of structure and photocatalytic activity in polymer microsphere templated TiO2 microbowls
Altunöz Erdoğan, Deniz; Polat, Meryem; Garifullin, Ruslan; Guler, Mustafa O.; Ozensoy, Emrah (Elsevier BV, 2014-07-30)
Polystyrene cross-linked divinyl benzene (PS-co-DVB) microspheres were used as an organic template in order to synthesize photocatalytic TiO2 microspheres and microbowls. Photocatalytic activity of the microbowl surfaces were demonstrated both in the gas phase via photocatalytic NO(g) oxidation by O-2(g) as well as in the liquid phase via Rhodamine B degradation. Thermal degradation mechanism of the polymer template and its direct influence on the TiO2 crystal structure, surface morphology, composition, spe...
Synthesis and characterization of waterborne and phosphorus-containing flame retardant polyurethane coatings
Celebi, F; Aras, L; Gündüz, Güngör; Akhmedov, IM (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2003-09-01)
Phosphorus-containing flame retardant water-dispersed polyurethane coatings were produced by incorporating different amounts of a phosphorus compound onto the polyurethane main chain. The novel phosphorus containing compound (phosphorus phenyl dihydroxy) was synthesized in three steps using benzaldehyde, pentaerythritol, phenyl phosphonic dichloride, and acetic acid.
Electrical Characterization of ZnInSe2/Cu0.5Ag0.5InSe2 Thin-Film Heterojunction
Gullu, H. H.; Parlak, Mehmet (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-05-01)
ZnInSe2/Cu0.5Ag0.5InSe2 diode structures have been fabricated by thermal evaporation of stacked layers on indium tin oxide-coated glass substrates. Temperature-dependent dark current-voltage measurements were carried out to extract the diode parameters and to determine the dominant conduction mechanisms in the forward- and reverse-bias regions. The heterostructure showed three order of magnitude rectifying behavior with a barrier height of 0.72 eV and ideality factor of 2.16 at room temperature. In the high...
Nanomorphology and fire behavior of polystyrene/organoclay nanocomposites containing brominated epoxy and antimony oxide
Isitman, Nihat Ali; Sipahioglu, B. Melike; Kaynak, Cevdet (Wiley, 2012-06-01)
Organoclay nanocomposites were prepared by ultrasound-assisted solution intercalation technique based on polystyrene containing brominated epoxy and a combination of brominated epoxy and antimony oxide. Aspects of nanomorphology and nanodispersion were investigated by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy whereas flammability and reaction to fire were evaluated using limiting oxygen index, UL-94, and mass loss calorimeter tests. Polystyrene/brominated-epoxy-blend-based nanocomposites showed...
Interfacial Interactions and Flammability of Flame-Retarded and Short Fiber-Reinforced Polyamides
Gunduz, Huseyin Ozgur; Isitman, Nihat Ali; Aykol, Muratahan; Kaynak, Cevdet (Informa UK Limited, 2009-01-01)
Interfacial properties, crystallinity and flammability of short fiber reinforced and flame retarded polyamide 6 and polyamide 66 compounds are investigated, emphasizing the influence of flame retardant fillers on the resistance of fiber/matrix interface to shear. Interfacial shear strengths are derived through a micromechanical approach by determining the tensile properties and residual fiber length distributions. Validated by fracture morphologies, interfacial strengths are found to be governed by filler-i...
