“A flame retardant is a material that exhibits either a
delay in the start, or a decrease in the rate of propagation, of a fire.
Organic polymers can be made flame retardant by incorporating a large quantity
(ca. 50 wt %) of an inorganic (e.g., Mg(OH)2. or organic (e.g.,
brominated polystyrene) filler. Flame retardant properties may be obtained at
much lower filler content with nanocomposites. Potential uses for flame
retardant nanocomposite materials include molded furniture, automotive parts
(such as body panels, under hood components) and appliance components (such as
electrical/electronic parts, power tool housings).”
