Flame-retardant-wrapped carbon nanotubes for simultaneously improving the flame retardancy and mechanical properties of polypropylene
Abstract
Covalently functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTs) wrapped in intumescent flame retardant were successfully fabricated and characterized. By adjusting the ratio of CNTs and flame retardant, the diameter of the functionalized CNTs was effectively controlled to 20–90 nm. Compared with pristine CNTs, the functionalized CNTs are better dispersed in polypropylene (PP) due to the in situ compatibilization reaction between the active groups of the intumescent flame retardant on the CNT surface and the maleic anhydride groups in the compatibilizer, maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PPMA). Incorporating the functionalized CNTs could confer outstanding flame retardancy on PP/PPMA, and considerably enhance the mechanical properties of the polymeric materials due to the improved interfacial adhesion and stress transfer. Therefore, use of intumescent flame-retardant-wrapped carbon nanotubes and in situ compatibilization are promising strategies for simultaneously improving the flame retardancy and mechanical properties of polymeric materials.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
