The invention discloses a preparation method and application of a
magnesium hydroxide /
phosphorus hybrid flame retardant, and belongs to the technical field of environment-friendly
flame retardant preparation and
polymer composite materials. According to the technical scheme, the preparation method comprises the following steps: sequentially adding
magnesium hydroxide,
diphenyl phosphite, a
hydrogen peroxide solution and an environment-friendly reaction medium into a
hydrothermal reaction kettle, ultrasonically mixing uniformly, transferring into a
drying oven for heating reaction, cooling, filtering and
drying to obtain the
magnesium hydroxide hybrid flame retardant. The preparation method of the magnesium hydroxide /
phosphorus hybrid flame retardant provided by the invention is simple in process and low in cost, a target product can be prepared through one-pot heating, a reaction medium is green and environment-friendly, and the preparation method is suitable for
mass production. Compared with a pure magnesium hydroxide flame retardant, the magnesium hydroxide /
phosphorus hybrid flame retardant prepared by the preparation method disclosed by the invention shows an excellent flame retardant effect under a low filling amount, and meanwhile, the flame-retardant modified
ethylene-
butyl acrylate copolymer (EBA) cable material has good mechanical properties.
