Epoxy resins are widely used as coatings,adhesives,primers, semiconductor encapsulation and as matrices for advanced fibre-reinforced composites.
Epoxy resin systems can be rendered fire retardant either by the incorporation of fire retardant additives (e.g. triphenyl phosphate ,decabromo diphenylether, aluminium ethyl phosphinate ) or by copolymerisation with reactive fire retardants (e.g. diglycidylether of tetrabromobisphenol A ).
Introduction
Among non-reactive compounds containing phosphorus, derivatives of 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO)were shown to induce especially excellent flame retardant properties in both neat epoxy systems and their fibre-reinforced counterparts.

The desired amount of the given hardeners was added slowly to the resin and subsequently the suspension was mixed using a mechanical stirrer operating at 600–1300 rpm until the compounds were dissolved and the mixtures were clear again.

When 2 was substituted for DDS as a hardener for the neat epoxy resin system, the LOI was improved significantly; an increase of about 13% was achieved with a phosphorus content of 4.5 wt.%.
A similar impact on flammability was also achieved for the composite based on DGEBA/DDS/2 with 60 vol.% carbon fibres and an overall phosphorus content of only around 1 wt.%. The LOI of the composite DGEBA/DDS/2 was increased by 17% and the UL 94 improved to a V-1 classification from the HB for the analogous DGEBA/DDS composite.
Conclusions
Addition of 1 the PHRR and the THE were improved crucially due to flame inhibition,whereas the charring induced in the DGEBA/DDS/2 composites could not be exploited with respect to PHRR and THE.
The incomplete combustion led to an increase in total smoke release (TSR) and in CO production.
