The Non-halogenated flame retardant handbook / edited by Alexander B. Morgan, University of Dayton Research Institute, Charles A. Wilkie, Marquette University.
Due to the emphasis on replacing halogenated flame retardants with alternate technologies, this handbook contains in one place all of the current commercial non-halogenated flame retardant technologies, as well as experimental systems near commercialization. This book focuses on non-halogenated flam...
