If asked about flame retardants, ChatGPT says they “can be effective in reducing the risk of fires”. The artificial intelligence large-language motor says that “phosphorus-based flame retardants are generally considered to be safer and less toxic than other types of...
Bio-sourced taurine reacted with phosphorus and nitrogen for a wash-durable PIN flame retardant for cotton-nylon blends. Taurine is a sulphur-containing amino acid derivative, widely found in animals and plants (the name comes from its presence in bull’s bile). It was...
Macromolecular P-N-S PIN flame retardant improves fire performance, thermal stability and strength of epoxy. The well-known phosphorus PIN FR molecule DOPO was combined with nitrogen-containing molecules and a phosphorus-sulphur compound and polymerised to generate...
pinfa-na webinar with Alex Morgan on links between fire tests, materials fire safety, fire safety engineering and FR solutions. Dr. Morgan (University of Dayton Research Institute, Center for Flame Retardant Material Science) is a leading global expert on materials...
pinfa-NA launches series of short (2-3 minute) educational videos on the use of flame retardants for fire protection. The short learning videos aim to inform the public on public fire safety, flame retardant technology and human & environmental health topics. A...
