EDA DOPO is a reaction product of DOPO with ethylenediamine a novel phosphonamidate, the halogen-free as a highly effective flame retardants , especially for polyurethane - foam is placed on the market.
Manufacturing
The phosphinic ester DOPO must first be activated by converting it into the acid chloride , whereby various chlorinating agents can be used. The Atherton-Todd reaction uses the carcinogenic carbon tetrachloride to chlorinate DOPO to DOP-Cl (Route A.); however, the method is obsolete because of the use of CCl 4 .
With sulfuryl chloride SO 2 Cl 2 in dichloromethane in the presence of triethylamine as the base, yields of up to 85% are achieved (preferred route B.), while a poorer yield of 74% is achieved with the solid trichloroisocyanuric acid TCCA as the chlorination reagent in acetonitrile as the solvent (route C. .). The product is obtained as a 1: 1 mixture of diastereomers .
properties
EDA-DOPO is a solid that is obtained as a white crystal powder and is hardly soluble in water and only slightly soluble in chloroform . The connection is thermally extremely stable and only begins to decompose at temperatures above 350 ° C, which is attributed to the spatial shielding of the unstable PN bond by the biphenyl structures. In-vitro tests have so far not provided any indications of neurotoxic , cytotoxic or inflammatory properties.
Applications
The DOPO precursor already has useful fire-retardant properties, but a decomposition temperature that is too low (<200 ° C), especially for thermoplastically processed polymers. The flame-retardant effect of DOPO and its derivatives is attributed to the formation of reactive radicals of the PO • and HPO • type in the gas phase formed during the pyrolysis of the material (gas phase mechanism). At EDA-DOPO, synergies between nitrogen and phosphorus for the flame-retardant effect are also discussed.
Due to its high melting and decomposition temperature, EDA-DOPO is suitable as a halogen-free flame retardant that is effective when added in relatively low amounts (<5%) for high-melting thermoplastic and thermosetting plastics such as polyester or polyamides , whereby it is classified according to the generally recognized UL 94 flammability test V0 has been classified as least flammable. EDA-DOPO can prove its effectiveness and its ecological and economic profile with the recently increased use for flame retardant finishing of polyurethane foams .
For the optimal stabilization of plastics, mixtures of flame retardants with different mechanisms of action are usually used, such as B. aluminum hydroxide , red phosphorus or organic compounds such as radical scavengers, antioxidants or intumescent materials such as ammonium polyphosphates .
