Electrical Insulating Materials
Annotation Contains papers presented at the March 1999 symposium held in Seattle, Washington, with sections on standards, electrical insulating fluids, electrical tests, and fire issues. Specific topics include fire hazard testing in the International Electrotechnical Commission Standards, specification issues associated with the development of an agriculturally based biodegradable dielectric fluid, electrochemical stability of mineral insulating oils, standardized testing procedures and developments in partial discharge measurement, and comparative tracking index of flame-retardant nylon and PBT. The editor is affiliated with GBH International. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
The Combustion of Organic Polymers
Deals comprehensively with all aspects of organic polymers. An appendix gives a pracitcal account of the flammability characteristics and flame retardance of individual organic polymers.
Practical Guide to Smoke and Combustion Products from Burning Polymers
This Practical Guide presents one of the most complete overviews of this important topic, covering smoke generation (including obscuration, toxicity, corrosivity), small and large scale smoke assessment, regulation of smoke, and methods of controlling smoke by plastics formulation. In particular this book focuses on the assessment of fire hazard and fire risks from combustion products and is an important book for plastics processors, regulatory personnel, and fire research and safety engineers. This book presents a state of the art overview of smoke formation from natural and synthetic polymeric materials. Also presented is a discussion on why different commercial polymers have different int...
Handbook of Polymer Science and Technology
This handbook focuses on physical, structural, and compositional properties of elastomeric materials and plastics. It provides a broad overview of the physical and physicochemical properties of synthetic rubbers that are used in conventional cured applications.
Fire Retardancy of Polymeric Materials
The third edition of Fire Retardancy of Polymeric Materials provides a single source for all aspects of this highly challenging field of applied research. This authoritative book covers design and non-fire requirements that drive how these materials are fire protected. Detailed study and consideration of chemistry, physics, materials science, economic issues and fire safety science is necessary to address considerations of mechanical, thermal, environmental, and end-use requirements on top of fire protection means that the field requires. This thoroughly revised new edition continues to offer comprehensive coverage of the scientific approach for those developing fire safe materials. It cover...

Carbon Monoxide and Human Lethality: Fire and Non-Fire Studies
This book summarizes a comprehensive study of the importance of carbon monoxide [CO] in fire atmospheres. It will be relevant to institutions involved in fire research, to industries producing combustible materials and to those concerned with fire from safety and medical standpoints.
Fire Retardant Materials
"This authoritative reference work will provide a comprehensive source of information for readers concerned with the highly diverse subject of fire retardance. The emphasis is on the burning behaviour and flame retarding properties of polymeric materials. It covers combustion, flame retardants, smoke and toxic products generally and goes on to concentrate on more material-specific aspects of combustion in relation to textiles, composites and bulk polymers. A wide range of fire retardant materials are covered including research in the new field of nanocomposites."--Knovel.
