Abstract: Epoxy resin-based reinforced composites have many important applications in the aerospace and other fields. With the continuous upgrading of material properties and requirements, it is a new issue to improve the flame retardancy of composite materials. In this paper, ZB flame retardants were added to epoxy resin. The results of the extreme oxygen index (GB/T 8924) and the TG test indicated that the initial decomposition temperature of the epoxy resin was increased. In addition, the thermal decomposition temperature of the epoxy resin increases with the addition amount of the flame retardant. Then, the epoxy resin composite panel were prepared by adding different amounts of ZB flame retardant. Mechanical properties and tilt ablation tests were carried out, which showed that the flame retardant properties of epoxy composites was increased with the addition of ZB flame retardant. However, the tensile strength and compressive strength were decreased with the addition of ZB flame retardant.
