Flame retardant-guardian of safety

The role of flame retardants in the aviation field is particularly obvious. In order to effectively prevent fires, the most stringent flame retardant standards have been adopted on aircraft. As early as 30 years ago, an investigation by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) found that the best way to reduce fire casualties on an aircraft is to extend the escape time. If flame retardant materials are used in the seats, carpets and luggage compartments of the aircraft, it can not only reduce the incidence of fire, but also provide passengers with a long escape time. At present, the progress of flame retardant technology has been able to extend the escape time of people from the scene of a fire from 2 minutes to 20 minutes. According to the European Commission's assessment, over the past 10 years,

According to the European Commission, fire deaths in Europe have been reduced by 20% in the past 10 years due to the widespread use of flame retardants.

Once the fire broke out, without the aid of flame retardants, the room temperature quickly soared to 600 degrees Celsius, and all the items burned at the same time in an instant, resulting in a flashover. At this time, escape became almost impossible.

 

Expert of flame retardant materials, Professor of Beijing Institute of Technology, Secretary of flame retardant special committee of China Ordnance AssociationAs a chemical, flame retardants are subject to rigorous evaluation before they are put on the market to ensure that they are safe for use. To date, all risk assessments of flame retardants in the EU have shown that the flame retardants used in consumer products do not pose a risk to human health, and there are no medical reports of existing human diseases linked to flame retardants.

In addition, the global regulation of chemicals is becoming more and more stringent, and the laws and regulations related to flame retardants at home and abroad are continuously improved. Toxic and harmful flame retardants are constantly being eliminated. Green and environmentally friendly, macromolecular polymeric flame retardants that are not easily absorbed by organisms are becoming the future development direction. As a new force in the fire nemesis, they will increasingly shoulder the important task of escorting the safety of life and property.

Zhongke Flame Retardant Organization Watches 20 Closing Ceremonies

On the morning of October 22, 2022, members of Zhongke Flame Retardant New Materials Co., Ltd. watched the closing ceremony of the 20th Congress under the leadership of General Manager Wang Ligui.

What are the reasons for the failure of flame retardant after adding aluminum hydroxide flame retardant?

Everyone knows that there are two common flame retardants. Today we are going to talk about only one of them. Aluminum hydroxide flame retardant is an environmentally friendly halogen-free flame retardant, which can be widely used in fabrics, wood, plastics, and rubber., Polyurethane and other industries have ideal flame retardant effect. In the process of industrial application, it is found that flame retardant failure occurs when aluminum hydroxide flame retardant is added. The following are the reasons for the failure of aluminum hydroxide flame retardant, how to prevent it, how to deal with the operation, and restore the original function.

As a flame retardant, magnesium hydroxide also need to improve what aspects?

When it comes to flame retardants, everyone is familiar with them. Although we usually have less contact with them, we can know what they are used for from the name. Have to talk about magnesium hydroxide, we all know that its main presentation state is a granular, at present, the market sales of magnesium hydroxide particle size is larger, part of the commodity particle size up to tens of microns, immediately used as a flame retardant, poor dispersion, the physical properties of raw materials greater harm. In industrial production, physical grinding methods are generally used to reduce the particle size to 1 micron. The surface of magnesium hydroxide has high polarity and is easy to agglomerate. As the compatibility of refractory materials and polymer substrates, it not only reduces its flame retardant grade, but also causes more serious harm to the physical properties of raw materials.
