The
10th international conference in the series provides
a forum for manufacturers, users, legislators, fire test experts
and fire scientists to exchange ideas about what is needed
and what is possible and practicable in the control of fire
in polymeric materials.
The
chapters contain: Regulatory & Sustainability Issues (6),
Commercial FR Formulations (8), FR Research (4), Testing (4),
Applications (4).
