Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polymer material additives and functional organic molecules, specifically to a DPP-type phosphorus-containing colored flame retardant, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of engineering plastics and fiber materials, color performance and flame retardancy safety often need to be satisfied simultaneously. In current industrial practice, colorants (pigments / dyes) and flame retardants are usually added as two separate additives in parallel. This parallel approach of combining colorants and flame retardants can easily lead to the following problems:
[0003] (1) Small molecule flame retardants may volatilize or migrate during high-temperature processing, leading to a long-term decrease in flame retardant effect;
[0004] (2) There may be compatibility or thermal stability interference between flame retardants and pigments, which may cause color drift, poor dispersion or even precipitation.
[0005] (3) To achieve the target flame retardant rating, the amount of flame retardant added needs to be increased, which dilutes the effective content of pigment, resulting in insufficient color strength or the need to add additional pigment, further exacerbating the complexity of the formulation.
[0006] DPP-based color development systems are an important class of high-performance organic pigment / dye precursors, possessing advantages such as high molar absorptivity, good color purity, excellent light and weather resistance, and good thermal stability within the plastic processing temperature range. By adjusting the aryl / heteroaryl substitution at positions 3 and 6 of the DPP skeleton, colors ranging from yellow-orange and red to magenta can be controllably adjusted, while also considering compatibility with different polymer systems.
[0007] However, existing DPP colorants primarily serve a coloring function and cannot contribute to flame retardancy; while traditional phosphorus-containing flame retardants are mostly non-color-producing molecules, making it difficult to achieve flame retardancy without affecting color. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a new type of colored flame retardant that is both inherently colored and has a phosphorus-containing flame-retardant structure to reduce migration, improve processing stability, and simplify formulation systems.
[0008] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Summary of the Invention

The DPP skeleton itself has high thermal stability and light resistance, and high color saturation. Multi-color coverage can be achieved through Ar¹ / Ar², meeting the needs of colored flame retardant materials. The phosphorus-containing side chain promotes char formation and inhibits dripping during combustion, which can improve LOI at a low addition amount and keep the color difference ΔE small. The synthesis route takes common DPP condensation and N-alkylation as the core steps, and the process can be scaled up and the raw materials are readily available, making it suitable for industrialization.

[0118] Application examples and comparative experiments;
[0119] Application Example 1: Verification of solution coloring and flame retardant properties in PET:
[0120] Polyethylene terephthalate (PET, intrinsic viscosity 0.64 dL / g) was vacuum dried at 120℃ for 6 h. Compound IV of the present invention was premixed with PET chips at a mass fraction of 0.30 wt%, and melt-extruded and granulated in a twin-screw extruder at 270–290℃ to obtain masterbatch, which was then diluted according to the required ratio to prepare test strips (1.6 mm thick).
[0121] For comparison, control samples were set up: Control 1 used 0.30 wt% of commercial DPP pigment of the same hue (phosphorus-free); Control 2 was a system with only flame retardant added (pigment-free); Control 3 was a system of "commercial DPP pigment + conventional phosphorus-containing flame retardant added in parallel". The test strips were tested for LOI according to GB / T 2406.2 and vertical burning rating was performed according to UL94; the color parameters were measured by spectrophotometer using CIE L*a*b* and the color difference ΔE after holding at 295℃ for 10 min was recorded.
[0122] Table 1 Comparative Experiment Table
[0123] sample Formula (wt%) Total phosphorus content (wt%) LOI (%) UL94 (1.6mm) L* a* ΔE(295℃ / 10min) S0: Blank PET No additives 0 21.2 NR 84.6 1.2 - S1: Commercial DPP Pigment DPP pigment 0.30 0 21.0 NR 52.8 46.5 3.9 S2: Conventional flame retardant AlPi 10.0 2.0 28.4 V-0 83.9 1.4 - S3: Parallel Addition System AlPi 10.0+ commercial DPP pigment 0.30 2.0 27.9 V-1 54.1 44.2 6.8 S4: Invention System AlPi 6.0+ compound four 0.30 1.5 28.2 V-0 54.6 45.9 2.1 S5: This invention adds a single ingredient. Compound IV 0.60 0.6 24.8 V-2 48.9 52.3 1.8
[0124] As shown in Table 1, commercial DPP pigments themselves do not contribute to flame retardancy (S1), and in parallel addition systems, differences in dispersion and thermal history lead to increased color difference and a lower UL94 rating (S3). In contrast, Compound 4 of this invention achieves a V-0 rating with a lower amount of flame retardant (S4) and maintains a small ΔE under a 295°C thermal history, demonstrating the advantages of integrated pigment-flame retardant system in terms of processing stability and formulation simplification.
[0125] Application Example 2, Migration and Solvent Resistance (Example Data):
[0126] After soaking S1 and S4 samples in ethanol / water (95 / 5) solution at 60℃ for 24h, they were removed and dried. The color difference ΔE of S1 was measured to be 4.6, with slight color precipitation on the surface; the color difference ΔE of S4 was 1.3, and no obvious migration was observed. This indicates that the covalent connection between the phosphorus-containing side chain and the DPP backbone is beneficial to reducing the solvent migration risk of low molecular weight pigments.
[0127] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
