The invention discloses a
phosphor and
nitrogen containing
flame retardant curing agent, a preparation method and application thereof. The curing agent has a phosphorylurea structure, contains active
ammonia and
hydrogen atoms, has dual functions of both a
flame retarding agent and a curing agent, and can be directly used for curing
epoxy resin. In a curing progress,
flame retardant elements are embedded into an
epoxy structure, thus avoiding phase separation phenomenon due to introduction of additive type flame retarding agent.
Phosphor elements mainly function in flame retarding of a condensed phase while a
urea structure mainly functions in flame retarding of a
gas phase. The curing agent can react with common
epoxy resin to obtain uniform and transparent cured object; in addition, the curing agent has low
phosphorus content, passes 1.6 mm UL 94 V0 level, reaches
oxygen index as high as 29-34%, and has excellent flame retardance; in thermo-
gravimetric analysis, the maximum
thermal decomposition temperature is as high as 400 DEG C; the
char yield of the curing agent at 700 DEG C is 35%; and
glass transition temperature of the curing agent is as high as 150 DEG C. The curing agent can also realize co-curing together with common curing agents, such as, diaminodiphenyl
sulfone and anhydride-type epoxy curing agents. The curing agent is low in cost, simple in production process, and available for industrial production.
