Durable flame retardant cellulosic fibers modified with novel, facile and efficient phytic acid-based finishing agent (2017, methodology): “In a word, the main drawback of Pyrovatex CP method is the release of toxic degradation products during the combustion process (Horrocks 2011).”
Layer by Layer ammonium polyphosphate-based coatings for flame retardancy of polyester–cotton blends (2012, background): “In addition, it is well documented in the literature the same effect induced by the presence of APP (Horrocks, 2011).”
Novel flame retardant finishing systems for cotton fabrics based on phosphorus-containing compounds and silica derived from sol-gel processes (2011, unknown): “…novel synthetic strategies based on the known chemistry. otable efforts and interests have been focused on the enhanceent of the char-forming efficiency by using intumescent systems, ble to create a physical barrier onto the textile surface, thus proecting the polymer bulk (Horrocks, 1996, 2010).”
