[0059] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below by way of example, and are intended to explain this application, but should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0060] This application firstly discloses a compound. According to embodiments of this application, the general chemical structural formula of the compound is shown in Formula I;

[0061] Equation I: Where R is a substituent containing a benzotriazole structure.

[0062] The compounds described in the above embodiments of this application contain a spirocyclic phosphate structure (i.e., the chemical structure in Formula I excluding R) and a benzotriazole structure (a fused ring structure formed by the fusion of a benzene ring and a 1,2,3-triazole ring), endowing them with excellent flame retardancy and thermal stability, among other multifunctional properties. Therefore, when applied to the modification of materials such as silicone rubber, these compounds can significantly improve the flame retardant and heat resistance properties of the materials, making them widely applicable. Specifically:

[0063] 1) The benzotriazole structure in this compound exhibits high conjugation effect and aromatic stability, making it less prone to bond breaking or decomposition at high temperatures. Furthermore, the nitrogen atom on the azole ring can participate in π-conjugation through lone pair electrons, further enhancing the compound's thermal stability. Simultaneously, the spirocyclic phosphate structure in the compound can capture highly reactive free radicals such as H· and HO· through gas-phase free radical capture, interrupting the combustion chain reaction. It can also condense into a dense, heat-insulating, and oxygen-barrier char layer, effectively preventing heat transfer, inhibiting the volatilization of combustible gases, and blocking oxygen from entering the combustion zone, thus achieving a self-extinguishing effect. Moreover, the char products of the spirocyclic phosphate structure have a high char residue rate, which can improve the mechanical strength of the char layer, prevent it from cracking during combustion, maintain the integrity of the flame-retardant barrier, and further improve flame-retardant performance. Therefore, the compound provided in this application, through chemical structural units such as the spirocyclic phosphate structure and the benzotriazole structure, endows it with excellent flame-retardant and thermal stability, among other multifunctional properties.

[0064] 2) Compared to inorganic heat-resistant fillers, the compounds provided in this application are organic molecules, which exhibit better compatibility with materials such as silicone rubber and have a tighter interfacial bond. Therefore, the compounds provided in this application can more effectively improve the heat resistance and flame retardant properties of materials such as silicone rubber.

[0065] According to some specific embodiments of this application, R is selected from any of the following substituents:

[0066]

[0067] It should be noted that in the chemical structures of the above substituents It only indicates that a chemical bond is formed or broken at that point, and is not part of a substituent.

[0068] According to some specific embodiments of this application, the chemical structural formula of the compound is shown below:

[0069]

[0070] Based on the above, the compounds provided in this application not only contain chemical structural units such as spirocyclic phosphate structure and benzotriazole structure, but also have phosphorus atoms and nitrogen atoms directly connected in the compound, forming a PN synergistic flame retardant component, which further improves its flame retardant performance.
