Article Abstract
Cotton fibers' flammability and rapid combustion greatly restrict their usage in industries that require higher flame retardancy. Phosphorus and nitrogen-based flame retardants are frequently employed in the textile industry to consolidate the flame resistance of cotton materials. To consolidate flame retardant performance, a novel flame retardant named HPAPU was synthesized by combining 3-hydroxyphenylphosphinylpropionic acid, 1,6-hexanediamine, phosphoric acid, and urea. The structure of the products at each step was analyzed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. In addition, the NMR was utilized to confirm that it was successfully synthesized. In order to evaluate the flame retardancy of HPAPU-treated cotton fabrics, the limiting oxygen index (LOI) was measured. The results showed that the LOI of the cotton fabric with 27.5 % weight gain was 38.5 %, which is a significant increase compared to the pure cotton fabric. According to the cone calorimeter test, the HPAPU-treated cotton fabrics showed a decrease in 86.6 % in peak heat release rate and 41.67 % in peak total heat release rate compared with unprocessed samples. In the tensile test, we found that increasing the flame-retardant concentration can improve the fabrics' tensile strength.

To analyse the issues of high muzzle flame intensity and the easy migration of insensitive agents in conventional insensitive propellants, this study synthesizes modified nitrocellulose grafted with carboxymethyl potassium groups by a two-step process, starting from the molecular structure of nitrocellulose (NC), the principal component of propellants. First, the denitration reaction was performed to reduce part of the nitrate ester groups on the surface of NC to hydroxyl groups, followed by an etherification reaction to achieve directional grafting of carboxymethyl potassium groups. Compared with conventional flame retardant/insensitive systems based on nitrogen, phosphorus, or DBP (dibutyl phthalate), potassium-based functional groups exhibit superior thermal stability and environmental friendliness.

In the zebrafish larval toxicity model, phenotypic changes induced by chemical exposure can potentially be explained and predicted by the analysis of gene expression changes at sub-phenotypic concentrations. The increase in knowledge of gene pathway-specific effects arising from the zebrafish transcriptomic model has the potential to enhance the role of the larval zebrafish as a component of Integrated Approaches to Testing and Assessment (IATA). In this paper, we compared the transcriptomic responses of triphenyl phosphate between two standard exposure paradigms, the Zebrafish Embryo Toxicity (ZET) and General and Behavioural Toxicity (GBT) assays.

Pollution can have lasting effects beyond the exposure period, potentially impacting multiple generations. Polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants are widespread, including in oceans, yet their multigenerational impacts remain poorly understood. We investigated whether BDE-99, a ubiquitous PBDE, induces neurobehavioral and molecular effects across generations in the fish .

Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), a widely used flame retardant in textiles and electronics, poses toxicological risks through both environmental and indoor exposures. Biomonitoring studies have detected significant TBBPA levels in prenatal environments, including cord blood, raising concerns about developmental impacts. Using zebrafish as a model, this study addresses critical gaps in understanding how developmental TBBPA exposures perturb regulatory pathways that govern dorsoventral patterning.

Developing solid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity, a high voltage window, low flammability, and excellent interface compatibilities with both the anode and cathode for lithium-metal batteries is still a great challenge but highly desirable. Herein, we achieve this target through an in situ copolymerization of vinyl ethylene carbonate (VEC) together with acrylonitrile (AN) under fitting ratios inside a porous polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fiber membrane doped with flame-retardant decabromodiphenyl ethane (DBDPE) molecules. The received fiber-reinforced polycarbonate-based composite electrolyte with an ultrathin thickness of 13 μm exhibits good internal interfacial compatibility because of the same AN structure and superior flame-retardant performance due to the doped DBDPE molecules.
