Flame Retardant Furniture and Vehicle Preventing fires and extending escape time are of utmost importance when people are in a confined and not easily vacated space. From airplanes to cars to trains, flame retardants can play a key role in protecting travelers from the devastation of fire. Upholstered furniture and mattresses can be a major contributor to fires. They are often some of the first products to ignite i…

FLAME RETARDANTS HELP KEEP HOMES SAFE The average home now contains more than 20 electronic products, including televisions, smartphones, computers, gaming systems, and tablets1 . Electronics also include refrigerators, dishwashers, and other appliances. Today’s electronics contain more electrical components than in past years. Electronics, however, as energized devices, present fire threats, which is why manufactu…

Cost of Fire According to the National Fire Protection Association, in 2014 the total cost of fire was $328.5 billion, which was 1.9% of U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Over the years 1980 to 2014, the total cost of fire increased by 50.3%.1Of course, preventing injury or loss of life is the most important component of fire safety, but we also need to recognize that the costs of fires go …

Benefits of Flame Retardants Flame retardants provide an important layer of fire protection by helping to prevent or slow the spread of fire.Flame retardants inhibit or suppress the combustion process. They reduce the amount of heat released from a fire and the potential for a fire to spread. Flame retardants can also reduce the amount of smoke produced by a fire.1The use of flame retardants is especially i…

Not all flame retardants are the same Manufacturers include specific flame retardants in their products based on the product’s attributes, properties, use, and potential ignition threats. Product manufacturers use flame retardants to protect materials from igniting.The term “flame retardant” refers to a function, not a distinct family of chemicals. Many different chemistries, with different properties and molecul…

What are flame retardants ? Flame retardants are derived from naturally-sourced elements and are incorporated into materials such as plastics, textiles, foams, and paints. Flame retardants can be liquids or solids. They can be chemically transformed to create a new fire resistant material (reactive) or physically incorporated into a material (additive).Reactive flame retardants are incorporated into the p…

Flame retardancy mechanisms According to their specific mechanisms, fire retardants interrupt polymer pyrolysis in one or more steps. Three of the most common flame retardancy mechanisms are described in previous studies. Gas phase inhibition mechanism, where the FRs react with the polymer under combustion in the gas phase with hydroxyl or oxygen agents at the molecular level and extinguish the combustion…

The importance of flame retardants In order to meet fire safety requirements and diminish fire hazards, different solutions have been developed. Various chemical and physical strategies have evolved to prevent polymers from burning or to lower the heat release amount. Recently, flame retardants (FRs) have been widely recognized as fire safety tools capable of lowering the number of fire injuries and death. The t…
