In situ phthalocyanine synthesis chemistry in flames towards molecular fireproof engineering†
Abstract
The boundaries between phthalocyanine synthesis and combustion chemistry were broken through to achieve molecular fireproofing via in situ phthalocyanine (Pcs) synthesis during combustion. Furthermore in situ Pcs chemistry achieves a flame-retarding organic thermoplastic polymer, showing state-of-the-art fire-safety performance and an ultra-low fire hazard.
