    Synergistic Effect of Natural Zeolites on Flame Retardant Additives
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2005) Demir, Hasan; Arkış, Esen; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, Semra
    The thermal degradation and flammability of intumescent fire-retardant polypropylene matrix composites consisting of ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as an acid source and blowing agent, pentaerythritol (PER) as a carbonisation agent and natural zeolite (clinoptilolite rich, Gördes II) as a synergistic agent were examined. APP and PER combinations were examined at different ratios (0.25, 0.33, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4) for optimisation of the formulation for flame retardancy. The zeolite was incorporated into flame retardant formulation at four different concentrations (1, 2, 5, and 10 wt%) to investigate the synergism between the flame retardant materials. The thermal degradation and flammability of composites were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and by limiting oxygen index (LOI) measurement and horizontal burning (HB) tests. A synergistic effect in flame retardancy was observed when natural zeolites were used in combination with APP and PER.

    Thermal Stabilisation of Poly(vinyl Chloride) by Organotin Compounds
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2005) Arkış, Esen; Balköse, Devrim
    The effect of LSN 117 (dioctyl tin bis isooctyl thioglycollate, an organotin compound) on the heat stability of plasticised PVC was investigated in this study. The organotin stabiliser had carbonyl and carboxylate groups and PVC contained traces of Fe, Zn, Ca, Cu and Sn. The heat stability of the films were tested at 140 °C and 160 °C or 180 °C by heating in an air circulation oven up to 2 h and by measuring HCl evolved using a Metrohm 763 PVC thermomat and by thermogravimetric analysis. The onset of HCl evolution was at 14.3 and 2.5 h at 140 °C and 160 °C, respectively, for PVC film without LSN117. On the other hand, the film with LSN117 did not evolve HCl in 30.3 h at 140 °C. HCl started to evolve from the films with LSN 117 in 14.3 h at 160 °C. The TGA curve also indicated PVC film with LSN 117 degraded at higher temperatures than control films. LSN 117 was found to be a good heat stabiliser for plasticised PVC and it did not have any detrimental effect on mechanical properties.
