The transition of flame-retardant polymer materials from laboratory research and development to production line has triggered a major change in safety. In the laboratory, researchers are committed to developing new flame-retardant systems and materials. Through in-depth research on the molecular structure design, compounding synergy and interaction mechanism of flame retardants with polymer matrix, the performance of flame-retardant polymer materials is continuously improved.

After a large number of experimental screening and optimization, many high-efficiency flame-retardant formulas have been born. For example, different types of phosphorus-based flame retardants are compounded with nitrogen-based flame retardants to enhance the flame retardant effect by using the phosphorus-nitrogen synergistic effect; or nanomaterials such as nano-montmorillonite and carbon nanotubes are introduced into the polymer matrix to improve the carbonization structure of the material and enhance the flame retardant and mechanical properties.

When these research and development results move to the production line, the optimization of the production process is crucial. It is necessary to adjust the processing parameters such as processing temperature, time, and pressure to ensure that the flame retardant is evenly dispersed in the polymer and does not affect the molding process of the material. For example, in the extrusion molding process, the flame retardant and the polymer are fully mixed by optimizing the screw structure and speed. During injection molding, the mold temperature and injection speed are precisely controlled to ensure product quality.

With the large-scale production of flame-retardant polymer materials on the production line, its application areas are constantly expanding. In the field of electronics and electrical appliances, it is used to manufacture the shells of electronic products such as computers and mobile phones to reduce fire hazards; in the automotive industry, it is used for automotive interior parts to improve the fire safety of automobiles; in the construction field, it is used to make insulation boards, decorative materials, etc., to enhance the fire resistance of buildings. The journey from the laboratory to the production line has enabled flame-retardant polymer materials to be widely used, bringing more reliable safety guarantees to people's lives and production, and promoting the improvement of social security levels.
