'No flame' without smoke
Article Abstract:
No-Flame Limited of the UK, has developed a liquid based fire retardant which dries in to treated materials. Traditionally liquid fire retardants tend to form crystals within the treated fabric which can either fall out or be vacuum out, which reduces their protection levels. The No Flame product bonds to the fibres, providing an effective barrier, and it is colourless and non-toxic. It has been used in the film and theatrical industries and is expected to play an important part in reducing fire related deaths and injuries at home and in the workplace.
