EXTRUDED POLYMER FOAMS CONTAINING BROMINATED FATTY ACID-BASED FLAME RETARDANT ADDITIVES

摘要

Extruded polymer foams are prepared using brominated fatty acids, an ester, amide or ester-amide of a brominated fatty acid, a glyceride of one or more brominated fatty acids, or a polymerized brominated fatty acid as an FR additive. The brominated FR additives unexpectedly are stable at the extrusion temperatures, and provide excellent flame retardancy to the foams.
