With the continuous advancements of urbanization, the demand for power cables is
increasing to replace overhead lines for energy transmission and distribution. Due to …

Polypropylene (PP), as a general thermoplastic polymer, is broadly used in different fields.
However, the high flammability, melt drip** and poor mechanical properties of PP are a …

Polypropylene (PP) burns very rapidly due to its wholly aliphatic hydrocarbon structure.
Studies have shown that the rapid decomposition and flammability of PP are very high when …

During the hydrolysis polymerization of caprolactam, melt polycondensation requires that
the stoichiometry of the carboxyl-terminal and amine-terminal groups be kept in balance …

In this work, Carbon nanotubes with surface treatment and Aluminium Hydroxide (ATH)
nanoparticles are incorporated into the polypropylene matrix as Nanofillers to fabricate …

In this work, a strategy was used to combine Mg (OH) 2 nanoparticles (MDH), the bentonite
nano‐sheets, and melamine cyanurate (MC) to prepare dioctyl phthalate (DOP) plasticized …

DOPO‐based dicarboxylic acid (DODA) was synthesized and used to prepare DOPO‐based
polyamide (DOPA) using a direct polycondensation reaction. Also, DODA was used for the …

A way to suppress the deterioration in mechanical properties of polyamide 6 (PA6) is
required, especially with high loading of flame retardants in the matrix. In this study, a novel …

The separator is a critical component in improving the safety and charge–discharge property
of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the poor heat resistance and flame retardancy of …
