Fire and Polymers : Hazards Identification and Prevention (ACS Symposium Series)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
As the focus of fire research shifts from improvements in flame extinguishing to the development of fire-retardant and fire-resistant materials, polymers are playing an increasingly important role. This new volume provides an examination of this important research. Among the topics covered in
its 34 chapters are: toxic smoke and particulate matter; fire retardants and fire retardant commodity plastics; fire retardancy in engineering plastics; fire and cellulosics; and fire performance, testing and risk. Contributions come from sources as diverse as the Center for Fire Research of the
National Institute of Standards and Technology, the Swedish National Testing Institute, the USDA Forest Products Lab, as well as major universities all over the world.
