Abstract | The high brittleness and flammability issues of epoxy resins (EPs) seriously limit their high-performance applications in industries. However, most of the current research has been failing to simultaneously enhance both toughness and flame retardancy of EP by a facile method. In this work, three phosphaphenanthrene derivatives (DOPO, ODOPM and DOPA) were applied to prepare intrinsic flame-retardant epoxy resins by using diphenylmethane-4,4′-diisocyanate (MDI) as a bridge. The as-prepared EP/MDI/DOPO, EP/MDI/ODOPM, and EP/MDI/DOPA exhibited obviously enhanced flame retardancy and mechanical performance relative to EP. As the P content reached 1 wt%, the limiting oxygen indexes (LOIs) and vertical combustion (UL-94) levels of EP/MDI/DOPO, EP/MDI/ODOPM and EP/MDI/DOPA reached 28.9 %, 31.2 %, and 33.4 %, and V-1, V-0, and V-0. The impact strengths of EP/MDI/ODOPM and EP/MDI/DOPA containing 0.75 wt % of phosphorus were higher than that of EP by 209.3 % and 212.4 %, respectively, due to the covalent linkage between the phosphaphenanthrene-derived groups, MDI, and polymer network. Thereby, a simple method is revealed in this work to improve both fire retardance and toughness of EP, which facilitates its high-performance development. |
