Polymer Green Flame Retardants
Polymer Green Flame Retardants covers key issues regarding
the response of polymers during fire, the mechanisms of their
flame retardation, the regulations imposed on their use, and the
health hazards arising from their combustion. Presenting the
latest research developments, the book focuses in particular on
nanocomposites, believed to be the most promising approach for
producing physically superior materials with low flammability and
ecological impact. The fire properties of nanocomposites of
various matrixes and fillers are discussed, the toxicological
characteristics of these materials are analyzed, addressing also
their environmental sustainability.

Edited by distinguished scientists, including an array of
international industry and academia experts, this book will
appeal to chemical, mechanical, environmental, material and
process engineers, upper-level undergraduate and graduate
students in these disciplines, and generally to researchers
developing commercially attractive and environmentally friendly
fire-proof products.
