This invention relates to the field of
flame retardant preparation technology, and more particularly to a method for preparing an
environmentally friendly and highly efficient
flame-retardant
polyolefin cable sheath material. The invention uses compounds containing primary amino and
amide bonds and compounds containing phenyl and
phosphoryl chloride groups as raw materials. The reaction is carried out at
room temperature for 0.5-1 h, then heated to 45 °C for 3-4 h, and then to 65 °C for 5-6 h. Through a
condensation reaction, a
phosphoramide macromolecular
flame retardant containing phenyl and
amide bonds is obtained, with a yield as high as 80.5-95.6%. This flame retardant is added to
polyolefin cable sheath material at a
mass ratio of 25%, then compounded and extruded to obtain a
halogen-free flame-retardant
polyolefin cable sheath material. The flame retardant molecule prepared by this invention simultaneously contains
phosphorus and
nitrogen flame-retardant elements and
amide bonds forming a
char skeleton. During
combustion, it can exert a
phosphorus-
nitrogen synergistic flame-retardant effect and promote the catalytic
char formation of the matrix, which can significantly reduce the heat and
toxic gas release of polyolefin cable sheath material during
combustion, thereby providing protection for the lives of people in fire scenes.
