Features: This book discusses flame-retardant thermoplastic and thermosetting plastics. The book consists of 14 chapters, with the first 3 chapters outlining the progress of flame-retardant polymer materials, flame-retardant mechanisms, flame-retardant technologies, and flame retardants. Chapters 4-14 provide detailed descriptions of the flame-retardant principles, flame-retardant formulation design, and properties of flame-retardant materials for polyolefins, polyvinyl chloride, styrene-based resins, polyamides, linear polyesters, unsaturated polyesters, and polyurethanes. The book not only covers various polymers flame-retarded by different types of additives (halogenated, phosphorus-based, halogen-phosphorus-based, intumescent, and inorganic flame retardants) and reactive flame retardants but also dedicates a chapter to introducing several inherently flame-retardant polymers. The book is characterized by its novel content, practical applications, and reliable data. It is intended for engineering technicians engaged in the research, production, and use of flame-retardant polymer materials, as well as serving as a textbook or teaching reference for graduate students and senior undergraduate students in relevant disciplines at universities.
