The invention relates to a
flame retardant dimethyl dibromo
neopentyl glycol silicate compound and a preparation method thereof. The structure of the dimethyl dibromo
neopentyl glycol silicate compound can be shown in the formula (described in the specification). The preparation method of the dimethyl dibromo
neopentyl glycol silicate compound comprises the following steps: at the temperature of 20 DEG C, dropwise adding dimethyl
dichlorosilane, or dimethyl dibromosilane into an
organic solvent solution dissolved with equimolar of dibromo neopentyl glycol, wherein during the dropwise adding, the temperature is controlled to be not higher than 50 DEG C, then heating to 70-130 DEG C within 1-2 hours, carrying out heat preservation and reaction for 4-8 hours, and purifying, so that white
solid dimethyl dibromo neopentyl glycol silicate is obtained. The dimethyl dibromo neopentyl glycol silicate has the advantages that
silicon and
bromine elements are synergistic,
flame-retardant efficiency is high,
char forming characteristic is good, and material compatibility is good, so that the dimethyl dibromo neopentyl glycol silicate is applicable to serving as
flame retardant of materials such as
polyolefin,
polyurethane,
epoxy resin and unsaturated resin; meanwhile, a production process is simple, equipment investment is low, raw materials are available, cost is low, and industrial production can be easily realized.
