Abstract
The thermal behavior of ammonium polyphosphate, melamine, dipentaerythritol and mixtures based on them was studied at different component ratios. The thermal properties of ammonium polyphosphate/melamine/dipentaerythritol mixtures were found to depend on the ratio of their components. An optimal ratio of ammonium polyphosphate/melamine/dipentaerythritol components was established, at which destructive processes begin to manifest themselves at higher temperatures.
