Fire hazard evaluation of thermoplastics based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method
Combustibility performance of 14 compositions including five main thermoplastics (polycarbonate (PC), polypropylene (PP), high impact polystyrene (HIPS), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC)) was tested by cone calorimeter. The fire growth index, total heat release amount index, total smoke release amount index and toxicity product index were calculated, based on which an index system for evaluating fire hazard was set up. All factors in this index system had been analyzed by the analytic hierarchy process, and the specific weight for each factor had been determined. Then fire hazard of thermoplastics was evaluated considering integrated fire hazard index. The results show that fire hazards of HIPS‐phosphate fire retardant (PFR), PVC‐non‐flame retardant, ABS‐brominated flame retardant (BFR) and PC/ABS‐PFR are higher than PC‐BFR and PP‐non‐halogenated flame retardant.
