A Study of the Effect of Flame-Retardant Additives on the Properties of Composite Materials Based on Thermoplastic Elastomers

The effect of flame retardants on the physical and mechanical and thermo-oxidative properties of composite materials based on thermoplastic elastomers is studied. It is shown that a composition based on a thermoplastic elastomer with a selected concentration of organobentonite and brucite additives possesses a set of flame-retardant properties including thermo-oxidative stability by the time of oxidative induction in comparison with other studied compositions.
