Abstract

The challenges of finding substitutes for banned halogen-containing flame-retardants (HFFRs) more specifically bromine-based FRs (BFRs) include lower flame retardancy, high cost, serious melt-dripping and deterioration in mechanical properties of halogen-free products. Phosphorous-based FRs (both additive and reactive types), silicon FRs, intumescent flame-retardants (IFRs), nano-materials including nano composites, bio macromolecules, use of catalysts provide some alternatives to halogen-based FRs.

Keywords: Halogen-free flame retardants; Phosphorous-based flame-retardants; Intumescent flame-retardants; Nano composites; Bio macromolecules; Silicon flame-retardants; Catalysts
