However, inherent flammability severely restricts its practical applications in packaging, fabric and electronics. Polyphosphoramides have recently demonstrated high fire-retardant effectiveness in PLA, but their synthesis usually involves the use of a large volume of toxic organic solvents, in addition to their negative impacts on the transparency of PLA. Herein, we report a one-pot green solvent-free approach for massively synthesizing a silicon (Si)-containing polyphosphoramide (DM-Si). The results show that with only 1.0 wt% of DM-Si, the resultant PLA material exhibits desirable fire retardancy, e.g., a UL-94 V-0 rating and a limiting oxygen index of 27.9%, and a 68% increase in toughness relative to virgin PLA. Moreover, both the tensile strength and transparency of PLA are well-preserved. This work provides an eco-benign yet facile strategy for the synthesis of efficient flame re-tardants for bioplastics with balanced mechanical strength and transparency, which hold great promise as sus-tainable materials for many industrial applications.Show less >
