How PIN FRs affect gas and soot toxicity of smoke in case of fire? Review of the literature
CREPIM’s litterature survey commissionned by Pinfa.
An initial study by CREPIM France, for pinfa, has collated and assessed available scientific literature on how PIN FRs affect fire smoke toxicity. 135 relevant publications were identified, of which 22 were found to contain useable information and data. 140 pages – April 2017
Innovative & Sustainable Flame Retardants in Building and Construction
Presentation of non-halogenated PIN flame retardant solutions for different materials and applications in building and construction, including standards and testing of resistance to fire, fire classification and fire performance of building materials, health and environment, manufacturing processes. Building materials are becoming increasingly complex, energy efficient and comfortable, but are also increasingly flammable, so that flame retardants are needed to prevent fire starting or stop fires spreading. This 56 page pinfa flame retardancy guide covers fire safety of profiles and composites (thermoplastics, thermosets), cables (PVC, HFFR), films and sheets, insulation materials (polyurethane foams, polystyrenes, polyolefins, natural insulation materials), building textiles, reactive coatings and sealants, flooring, waterproofing membranes.
