Additives halogen-based

Polyolefins When used in conjunction with a halogen-based flame retardant, this zinc borate can partially replace antimony oxide (30%-40%) and still maintain the same fire test performance. In addition, it can improve aged elongation properties, increase char formation, and decrease smoke generation. The B203 moiety in zinc borate can also provide afterglow suppression (Table 9.6). 

Contains additives used to neutralize residuals of halogen-based disinfectants, such as sodium hypochlorite (bleach). Contains additives used to neutralize residuals of halogen and quaternary ammonium chloride-based disinfectants. Samples collected using sterile swabs and buffer solution must be transferred to media for culturing and enumeration. (Courtesy of Northview Biosciences, Inc., Northbrook, IL.)... 

Cyclopropyl-l,l-dihaloethenes with or without an additional halogen atom attached to C2, are generally converted to alkynes by treatment with butyllithium. The yields were generally good. The structure of the products depended on the amount of butyllithium as well as how the reaction mixture was quenched. When more than 2 equivalents of base were employed and quenching was performed with water or alcohol, the corresponding acetylenylcyclopropane was formed. ° 1 s 16,1 s 19,1820 However, when more than 2 equivalents... 

Poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) has a high level of chlorine and as a result is considered inherently flame retardant. However, in many circumstances further improvement in flammability reduction of PVC is desired. An efficient way to enhance flame retardation of PVC is by the addition of Sb202 as a synergist. Additive retardants based on halogen and/or phosphorus are also employed. 

For the mechanism of halogenation of heterocycles and the influence of the medium (solvent, addition of acid to convert A-heterocycles into their conjugated acids, and addition of base for production of the anions from acidic heterocycles such as imidazole and pyrrole), as well as the influence of temperature a review by Eisch717 should be consulted. 

The dihalogenated starting material (A) loses HX to the base (B) to form the mono-halogenated intermediate (C), which subsequently loses HX to the base to produce the desired final product (D). Over-addition of base causes polymerization and loss of the batch. 

The D-erythrofuranosyl benzimidazole 4, various related 2-substituted analogues and some compounds additionally halogenated at C-4 have been prepared by base-sugar coupling. The enantiomer of 4 was also made, since the analogous L-ribofuranosyl compound has anti-HCMV activity. Some of the novel compounds also proved effective against HCMV. ...

The function of sulfur derivatives in flame retardancy is not exactly understood. It was suggested that the sulfur derivative appears to be a more effective catalyst for the dehydration, cross-linking, and char formation than ammonium polyphosphate alone [390]. The sulfation and desulfation occur more rapidly than phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. The char is formed both by the sulfation and the phosphorylation routes, but the char obtained appears to be a more effective, more compact, and less penetrable surface barrier. The sulfur compounds may act as synergists of the ammonium polyphosphate, similar to the effect of antimony trioxide in the case of halogen-based additives. It was further noted that the sulfations of nylon-6 and dephosphorylation occur simultaneously and produce cross-links and networks. 

The range of Exolit phosphate additives are becoming widely used in reinforced plastics designed for European railways. They allow the materials to pass various DIN German standards for flame and smoke retardancy such as DIN 4102 B1 and DEN 5510 S4 SR2 ST2, that previous halogen-based systems could not meet. 

The most effective fire-retardant polymeric materials are halogen-based polymers (e.g., PVC, chlorinated PVC, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)) and additives (e.g., chlorinated paraffins (CPs), tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBA)). However, the improvement in fire performance depends on the type of fire tests, that is, the application. 

First of all, halogen-based fire retardant additives (especially bromin-ated compounds associated with the antimony trioxide) are widely used. These systems release obscuring, corrosive and toxic smoke when they perform their fire retardant action. More, some of them release super toxic compoimds ( dioxins and polybrominated dibenzofurans) when exposed to heat during manufacturing or in fire. A continuous trend is the development of polymeric materials with reduced fire hazard, in order to meet the requirement of the international regulations (5th OECD Draft Status report (04/1993) and UN Environmental Program 1st Draft Report (01/1993)). 

Solovyev et al. [60] have shown that the IPr-borane complex can be substituted in a number of different feshions. For instance, reduction of alkyl halides or alkyl sulfonates yields the corresponding NHC-stabilized boryl-halide or sulfonate. Reaction with halogen-based electrophiles also yields boryl-halides. Reactions with Lewis or Bronsted acids (e.g., triflic acid) have also proven successful. These various reactions are especially useful since they result in the addition of a good leaving group, which paves the way for subsequent nucleophilic...
