Simulation Investigation on Flame Retardancy of the PVAc/ATP Nanocomposite by Su Qiong, Wang Yanbin, Liu Li, Liang Junxi

“…As a result, the obvious improved flame retardancy was attributed mainly to the increased dispersion of Mg ions in the PVAc matrix due to the stronger interaction between PVAc and ATP and partially to the combustion temperature of PVAc released by the escaped H2O originating from the ATP dopant. Hence, the ATP ore as a predicted additive is viewed as a prospective candidate to be applied in future organic materials to obtain better flame-retardant properties. …”
