Fire Retardancy Basics Three components must be present in order for a fire to occur: oxygen (or an oxidizing agent), heat and fuel. This is often represented by the "fire triangle" or "combustion triangle." The fire tetrahedron represents the addition of a component, the chemical chain reaction, to the three already present in the fire triangle. After the fire ignites, an exotherm…
Flame Retardants: Preventing Fires and Protecting Consumers As consumer products continue to evolve and improve, from lighter and faster computers to energy-saving building materials and construction methods to more fuel-efficient cars, fire safety technology allows these products to comply with domestic safety standards and laws.Flame retardants are materials that can be used in products, made from plastics, textiles, foams or wood, to …
Flame Retardants Save Lives A smoldering cigarette could turn an apartment without flame retardant protection into an inferno in less than 3 minutes.However, if the chair, bedding, or carpet where the cigarette lay, had flame retardant, the fire might never have started. And if a fire did start, the flame retardants would have reduced the heat and spread of the fire, taking 10-15 minutes to be deadly. Flam…
four principles of halogen-free flame retardants Halogen free flame retardants have low smoke emission and no toxic or corrosive gases. Halogen free flame retardant additives are mainly phosphorus compounds and metal hydroxides. These two compounds do not volatilize and do not produce corrosive gases when burning. They are known as nuisance free flame retardants. The following is a brief introduction to the flame retardant pri…
Several advantages of flame retardant masterbatch Because of the flame retardant efficiency, environmental protection, efficiency, convenience and so on, the flame retardant masterbatch has become an effective substitute for the traditional flame retardant and has been widely used in the various aspects of plastic granulation, extrusion, injection molding and other aspects.The effective flame retardant masterbatch is also known…
Do flame retardants actually stop the spread of fires? To answer that question, let’s use flame retardant furniture as an example. The number of upholstered furniture fires in the home environment dropped by 84 percent from 1980, the first year that data were available, to 2009, according to NFPA. While several factors have contributed to that sharp decline, the timeframe coincides with the use of flame retardants to meet flammabil…
Three Surprising Benefits of Using Flame Retardant at your House Flame retardants are products in a home that contain chemicals to decrease or eliminate their flammability, and they work in three different ways to inhibit or minimize the severity of a fire. A flame retardant will decrease the presence of oxygen as well as gasses located close to items that are burning. It will inhibit a material’s ability to ignite. Flame retardants also pro…
flame retardant necessity for Polyurethane (PU) Products 1.What are polyurethane products?Polyurethanes refer to a wide range of products that include flexible foams used in furniture and automobiles, rigid foams used as building insulation, durable coatings, adhesives and sealants, and even certain items of apparel.2.Can polyurethane products burn? As with other common organic materials, polyurethane foam products are combustible whe…
why are flame retardants still necessary? According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the number of reported fires in the United States decreased by seven percent from 2008 to 2009. In addition, between 1977 and 2009, civilian fire deaths declined from 7,395 to 3,010 respectively. Flame retardants have played a key role in reducing the incidence of fire. Unfortunately, despite the perceptions of some t…
