Background
Along with the development of society and the prosperity of economy, people pay more and more attention to fire safety in daily life; the common inorganic flame retardant has the advantages of simple process, high purity, good thermal stability, no toxicity, no volatilization, lasting effect and the like. 80% of the dead people in a fire are killed by inhalation of toxic gases and masked smoke from the combustion of polymeric materials.
The inorganic flame-retardant material does not generate toxic and corrosive gases, belongs to physiological harmless substances, has higher safety, and has the advantages of simple process, high purity, good thermal stability, lasting effect and the like. With the continuous development of social economy, the requirements of people on safety are higher and higher. Inorganic flame retardants already account for over 50% of flame retardant consumption in developed countries; inorganic flame retardants can be classified into metal hydroxides, antimony-based, tin-based, boron-based, and the like; wherein, the metal hydroxide is generally used as a flame retardant filler and can exert the flame retardant effect only by filling a large amount; under the background, development of a composite flame retardant which generates synergistic effect with other flame retardants is a great trend in the future.
The tin-based flame retardant has both flame retardant and smoke suppression effects, is nontoxic and harmless, and is an ideal flame retardant synergist; researchers explore and synthesize novel efficient flame retardants, and simultaneously compound flame retardants with good flame retardant effect so as to reduce the using amount of the flame retardants and reduce the attenuation degree of physical and mechanical properties of flame retardant materials, and inorganic flame retardants develop towards superfine, composite and multifunctional systems.
