Fire fighter suggests to anticipate fire safety in new materials, rather than trying to deal with consequences. Lithium ion batteries, lightweight timber and steel construction, new polymers: these all bring new fire risks for society and challenges for fire fighters....
BASF Forward AM non-halogenated FR resin offers high throughput production of rigid technical parts to UL 94 V-0. The photopolymer resin is compatible with a range of 3D printers, offers low viscosity (350 mPa at 30 ºC) and easy to print process. The resin offers high...
Tests show faster flame spread in cables when they are pre-heated. Tested HFFR cables performed better than PVC cables. All the cables were IEC 60332-1-2 fire rated and the HFFR (halogen-free flame retardant (PEVA/PE based) cable was additionally IEC 60332-3-23 fire...
Avient have launched a PIN flame retardant formulation resistant to stress cracking in armoured electrical cables. Cable sheath materials can crack when subject to tensile stress (curved installation) or pressure (underground), leading to loss installation and...
