Synergy between conventional phosphorus fire retardants and organically-modified clays can lead to fire retardancy of styrenics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Polystyrene–clay nanocomposites combined with phosphorous-containing fire retardants have been prepared and used to explore the thermal stability and mechanical properties of the polymer formed. The amounts of fire retardants and clay used were varied to

Synthesis of reactive phenylphosphoryl glycol ether oligomer and improved flame retardancy and mechanical property of modified rigid polyurethane foams

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2019
A novel reactive phenylphosphoryl glycol ether oligomer (PPGE) was synthesized to improve the flame retardancy of rigid polyurethane foam (RPUF). The PPGE segments in RPUF simultaneously enhanced its compressive modulus and flame retardancy.
