โœฆ Synopsis

The combination of mixture diagrams and quality functions can be a straightforward and rapid method of simultaneously optimizing polymer formulations for both flame retardancy and smoke suppression. For a semirigid PVC formulation using a three-component additive mixture it was found possible to raise the limiting oxygen index by over 7 units, while simultaneously reducing smoke production by more than 20%.

Zinc hydroxystannate (ZHS), at levels of 2-5 phr, and the hydrated fillers, magnesium hydroxide (MH) and alumina trihydrate (ATH), at levels of 20-50 phr, are effective flame retardants and smoke suppressants for flexible PVC. Novel ZHS-coated hydrated fillers are found to exhibit markedly improved

Potassium aluminum sulphate, hereafter referred to as alum, was used as a flame-retardant for some African timbers. It was observed that this treatment did not drastically reduce the strength of these timbers. Reasons are adduced to explain this result.
