Non-halogenated Flame Retardant Handbook
About this book
NON-HALOGENATED FLAME RETARDANT HANDBOOK
The 2 nd edition of the definitive single book of information, regulations, and how to use non-halogenated flame retardant technology.
This book focuses on non-halogenated flame retardants with an emphasis on practical and applied issues, and builds upon the 1st edition, but is not just a re-do/re-edit of 1st edition content. While non-halogenated flame retardants have not greatly changed since the 1 st edition was published in 2014, there have been enough advances and changes to merit a 2 nd edition. The book includes chapters on regulation and drivers for non-halogenated flame retardants, specific chapters on each of the major classes of flame retardants, as well as some newer technologies/niche non-halogenated solutions which are either starting to enter the market (coatings / bio-derived flame retardants) or are at least being studied with enough detail to bring to the attention of the reader.
As with the 1 st edition, the 2 nd edition still takes a practical approach to addressing the narrow subject of non-halogenated flame retardancy. It includes more emphasis on flame retardant selection for specific plastics, practical considerations in flame retardant material design, and what the strengths and limitsof these various technologies are. Previous flame retardant material science books have covered non-halogenated flame retardants, but they focus more on how they work rather than how to use them. This book focuses more on the practical uses, hence the title of the book "Handbook", which should make it of good use to industrial chemists and material scientists.
Audience
The primary audience is material scientists, industrial chemists, fire safety engineers who have to meet flame retardant needs to sell products. It will also be useful to academics working to develop new flame retardant solutions.
