New High-Performance Organophosphorus Flame Retardant
Sep 10, 2015 | Kimberly M. White, Ph.D., Daniel De Schryver, Ph.D., and Randy Chaya
A new non-halogen flame retardant has been developed and is useful for a variety of high performance applications. This non-reactive phosphorus-based material satisfies fire safety needs for a broad range of resins including epoxy, polyolefin, and polyamide. The combination of excellent flame retardant efficiency, high thermal stability and exceptional electrical properties is unique to this organophosphorus flame retardant and makes it a breakthrough technology for high speed, high frequency use in fast growing wireless and wired infrastructures. Resin performance data, including formulations with synergists, are presented in this paper....
The Regulatory and Environment Status of Tetrabromobisphenol-A In Printed Wiring Boards
Aug 23, 2012 | Susan D. Landry
First published in the 2012 IPC APEX EXPO technical conference proceedings. Tetrabromobisphenol-A (TBBPA) is the predominant flame retardant used in rigid FR-4 printed wiring boards (PWB). In this application, the TBBPA is fully reacted into the epoxy res...
