Effect of electron beam irradiation and microencapsulation on the flame retardancy of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer materials during hot water ageing test
Microencapsulated ammonium polyphosphate is prepared by successive sol-gel process. The higher irradiation dose induces the better dimensional stability for EVA system. The higher irradiation, the more MCAPP immobilized in EVA crosslinked structure. The higher irradiation dose enhances the flame retardancy of EVA composites. The microencapsulated composites demonstrate stable flame retardancy in ageing test.
