Description
A SMOKE SUPPRESSED THERMOPLASTIC RESIN COMPOSITION AND A METHOD FOR SUPPRESSING THE TENDENCY OF THERMOPLASTIC RESIN COMPOSITIONS TO SMOKE UNDER CONDITIONS OF BURNING BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention. This invention relates to flame retardant thermoplastic resin compositions that exhibit a reduced tendency to generate smoke under burning conditions. More particularly, this invention relates to thermoplastic compositions such as polyvinyl chloride ("PVC"), polystyrene and polyolefins, comprising bicyclic phosphate compound(s); and flame retardant agent(s). The compositions produced in accordance with this invention exhibit a reduced tendency to smoke under burning conditions .
Description of the Prior Art. It is known in the art that the flammability of thermoplastics, such as polystyrene, polyolefins, and polyvinyl halides, can be reduced by incorporation of a flame retardant agent. Typical flame retardant agents include reactive or additive halogenated organic compounds, inorganic fillers, and special formulations based on phosphorous and ammonium salts.
Although efficient in suppressing the rate of combustion in a resin system, most flame retardants tend to affect adversely one or more key properties of the resin. For example, many flame retardant additives are ineffective at producing low smoke ("smoke suppressed") formulations.
Recent public awareness about risk and hazard assessment during fire situations, and technical limitations of conventional flame retardant additives warrant a need for improved flame retardant thermoplastic compositions. In particular, a need exists for a thermoplastic composition that passes flammability standards with low smoke and combustion by-product formation, and does not detract from overall polymer performance.
Many prior art references describe the use of a variety of smoke additives in polystyrene and polyolefins. Modern Plastics Encyclopedia , Vol. 63, No. 10A, McGraw-Hill, Inc., pp. 179-180 (1986). However, the selection of a suitable smoke suppressant for thermoplastic resins is not predictable. Selection is particularly difficult when flame retardants are employed, exacerbated by the complex interaction between the polymer and the flame retardant agent.
Hechenbleikner , et al. describe in U.S. Patent No. 3,293,327 the production of bicyclic phosphites, phosphonates , thiophosphates , and selenophdsphates . These compositions are said to be stabilizers for vinyl halide resins. They are alleged to be useful as heat stabilizers for vinyl chloride resin, and as antioxidants for fats and oils. The Hechenbleikner patent does not specify the use of bicyclic phosphates to achieve low smoke thermoplastic resin compositions, nor does it disclose that cyclic phosphates of the present invention could be used with flame retardant agents to produce smoke suppressed flame retardant thermoplastic compositions.
British Patent No. 999,793 describes a process for producing organic phosphates by subjecting organic phosphites to reaction with peracetic acid. This patent shows a method for producing the most preferred bicyclic phosphate of the present invention, 2,6, 7-trioxa-l-phosphobicyclo[ 2.2.2] -octane-4- methanol-1-oxide and teaches the use of acetal ring-containing phosphates as plasticizers or functional fluids. The British patent, however, does not disclose the present invention. It does not mention bicyclic phosphates as being useful for flame retardant thermoplastic resins, nor that the most preferred bicyclic phosphate of the present invention can be used with flame retardant additives to yield improved smoke suppressed thermoplastic compositions.
Hills, et al. describe in U.S. Patent No. 3,873,496 a flame retardant polyester composition which contains 5 to 25 percent of a hydroxymethyl bicyclic phosphate compound as a flame retardant additive. Hills did not observe the ability for bicyclic phosphates to act as smoke suppressors for thermoplastic resin compositions which employ halogenated compounds as the primary flame retardant additive.
Halpern, et al. describe in U.S. Patent No. 4,341,694 a composition comprising 2 , 6 , 7-trioxa-l-phosphobicyclo[ 2.2.2 ] -octane-4-methanol-l-oxide and a nitrogen-containing co-additive, which are intumescent and are adaptable to flame retard polyolefins, polyvinylaromatic resins, polycarbonates, PVC and blends thereof. Halpern did not observe any smoke suppression of the present invention.
Parr, et al. describe in U.S. Patent No. 4,801,625 a flame resistant composition having (1) an organic polymeric substance in intimate contact with (2) a bicyclic phosphorous compound, and (3) a gas producing compound. Parr is silent on the use of bicyclic compounds to attain smoke suppressed flame retardation thermoplastic compositions.
Accordingly, a primary object of this invention is to provide smoke suppressed flame retardant thermoplastic compositions.
A related object is to provide flame retardant thermoplastic polyvinyl chloride compositions with a reduced tendency to smoke under burning conditions.
A further object is to provide polyvinyl chloride resin compositions incorporating bicyclic phosphate compound and flame retardants. - 6 - 95673/2 The foregoing and other objects, advantages and features of the present invention may be achievable with smoke suppressed thermoplastic polyvinyl halide, polyolefin or polystyrene resin compositions incorporating an effective amount of an additive mixture comprising a" flame retardant agent and a bicyclic phosphate compound.

Practice of the present invention is illustrated by the following examples, which are given to illustrate the invention and should not be construed as limiting its scope.
EXAMPLES Preparation of Polyvinylchloride Resin Systems. A general purpose polyvinylchloride ("PVC") resin was used in the study. PVC resin, powdered additives and flame retardant were blended in a mixing bowl and warmed to 90°C. Liquid plasticizer was added, and the admixture was compounded on a two-roll mill at 160°C. The compounded PVC material was compression molded at 180°C.
Table II shows examples of the use of Compound BCP in flexible PVC formulations. The general formulation used is as follows: Material ¾ by weight PVC Resin varied Compound BCP varied (see Table) Flame Retardant varied (see Table) Dioctylphthalate Plasticizer varied (see below) Epoxidized Soya Plasticizer 5 Stabilizer 3 The amount of dioctyl phthalate ("DOP") plasticizer was adjusted to give compositions with comparable physical properties (i.e., approximately 90 Shore A hardness) and flammability (approximately 30 01) performance.
Flammability Test Procedures. The following flammabi lity tests were used throughout the study: Test Method Description ASTM D-2863 Limiting Measurement of the minimum oxygen Oxygen Index necessary to sustain burning of a vertically supported sample for three minutes. High values indicate improved resistance to burning.
NBS Smoke Chamber Smoke density determinations ASTM -662 under smoldering conditions. Low values indicate low smoke evolution.
A series of experimental and comparative studies were performed using the foregoing techniques. The data are given in Table II.

The Control Example shows the effect of 5.0% BCP alone on the smoke performance of a 30 01 flexible PVC composition. Comparative Examples 2-6 show the effect of various flame retardants on smoke performance when Compound BCP is not present.
Example 1 illustrates the invention when the flame retardant is a bromine-containing flame retardant. Example 2 illustrates the invention when the flame retardant is phosphate-containing flame retardant (an alkarylphosphate ) . Example 3-5 illustrate the invention when the flame retardant is an inorganic flame retardant.
In the case of each invention composition, compositions comprising a bicyclic phosphate (Compound BCP) and a flame retardant had lower smoke than the Control (i.e., a system without any additional flame retardant agent) or the corresponding Comparative Examples 2-6 (i.e., a system without bicyclic phosphate).
