Popis: | Tin(IV) oxide, either alone or in combination with melaminium betaoctamolybdate or molybdenum(VI) oxide, has been found to be an effective flame retardant/smoke suppressant for rigid PVC. 119m Sn Mossbauer spectroscopy has been used to study the chemical changes undergone by the tin species during: (a) thermal degradation and (b) combustion. Under these conditions, the SnO 2 is partially reduced to tin(II) species (SnCl 2 and SnO) and metallic β-Sn. Elemental analysis of the char residues indicates that a proportion of the tin and molybdenum is lost from the polymer (possibly as volatile metallic chlorides or oxychlorides) and it is suggested that these metals can operate as fire retardants in both the condensed and vapour phases. |
