Abstract
- In the present work, lanthanum phenylphosphonate (LaPP)–based multilayered film was fabricated on the surface of flexible polyurethane (PU) foam by layer‐by‐layer self‐assembled method. The successful deposition of the coating was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy‐dispersive X‐ray (EDX). Subsequently, the thermal decomposition and burning behavior of untreated and treated PU foams were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and cone calorimeter, respectively. The TGA results indicated that Tmax2 of treated PU foams were increased by approximately 15°C to 20°C as compared with untreated PU foam. The peak heat release rate (PHRR) and total heat release (THR) of PU‐6 (with 19.5 wt% weight gain) were 188 kW/m2 and 20.3 MJ/m2, with reductions of 70% and 15% as compared with those of untreated PU foam, respectively. Meanwhile, the smoke production of treated PU foam was suppressed after the construction of LaPP‐based coating. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
