The use of non-halogenated flame retardants is becoming increasingly important due to the hazards associated with halogenated flame retardants. Companies are now focusing on creating materials that are safe, non-hazardous, and flame resistant. It has become evident that smoke and toxic fumes pose a greater risk to human life than the fire itself. Eco-friendly and safe non-halogenated flame retardant polymer compounds requires careful consideration of the choice of additives and the polymer matrix. One approach is to use natural materials like lignin, cellulose, and chitosan as flame retardant additives, while phosphorus-based flame retardants are also non-toxic and effective. The polymer matrix must also be considered, as more resistant polymers may require less additive. The development of such compounds requires careful material selection, formulation design, and testing to ensure they meet performance and safety standards.
