THERMAL PROPERTIES OF FLAME RETARDANT COTTON FABRIC GRAFTED BY DIMETHYL METHACRYLOYLOXYETHYL PHOSPHATE

Abstract

Thermal properties of flame retardant cotton fabric grafted by dimethyl methacryloyloxyethyl hosphate were investigated by the atom transfer radical polymerization ethod. Thermal gravimetric analysis was used to explore the thermal decomposition ode of flamed retardant cotton fabric. The weight loss rate of the flamed retardant otton was bigger than that of the control cotton fabric, and a more final residual har of flamed retardant cotton was also observed. Flammability tests were used to tudy the flame retardance property of the flame retardant cotton fabric. The results howed that flamed retardant cotton fabric with 16.8% of weight gain could keep ood flame retardance. Scanning electron microscope pictures were applied to investigate he morphology of residual char of the flame retardant samples.
