Flammability of Plant Fiber Reinforced Composite and its Application in Aircraft Interiors
With the wide utilization of synthetic fiber reinforced polymer composites, the disposal of the composites is seen as an important environmental problem.Nowadays, the materials extracted from natural resources such as biopolymers and plant fibers have shown considerable potential to replace traditional synthetic fiber and polymer and use in automotive components and aerospace industry.However, the inherent flammability and high smoke emission of plant fibers and polymers restrict their applications.The mechanical properties of the composites are usually seriously affect by the flame retardant which is due to that the compatibility between the fiber and polymer became worsen by the introduction of flame retardant.It is regarded as a challenge to improve the flame retardancy and the mechanical properties simultaneously.Phosphoruscontaining monomers containing reactive function groups, such as hydroxyl and carboxyl, adhered or grafted on the fiber and molecular chain of polymer matrix which could be a good solution for solving the problem.In this paper, some methods to improve flame retardancy of plant fiber reinforced composites were introduced, and their applications in aircraft interiors were also demonstrated.
