Produk Detail:
Toxic fire effluents are responsible for the majority of fire deaths, and an increasing large majority of fire injuries, driven by the widespread and increasing use of synthetic polymers. Fire safety has focused on preventing ignition and reducing flame spread through reducing the rate of heat release, while neglecting the important issue of fire toxicity. This is the first reference work on fire toxicity and the only scientific publication on the subject in the last 15 years. Assessment of toxic effects

Since the publication of the first edition in 1984, the handling and disposal of toxic materials has changed dramatically. To address current developments in the field, this new edition incorporates new material by 13 additional contributors, expanding the original single-authored work by 100 percent. Among the topics covered in this edition are: the Toxic Substances Control Act, SARA and Superfund, fires and explosions in standard and nuclear facilities, personal protective equipment and respiratory equipment, long-term toxicity, medical care and surveillance for hazardous waste
This book presents the state of the art of fire retardancy of polymers in 2005. Authors are international leaders in the field. There is extensive coverage of the fire retardancy due to polymer nanocomposites as well as other important areas.
As the focus of fire research shifts from improvements in flame extinguishing to the development of fire-retardant and fire-resistant materials, polymers are playing an increasingly important role. This new volume provides an examination of this important research. Among the topics covered in its 34 chapters are: toxic smoke and particulate matter; fire retardants and fire retardant commodity plastics; fire retardancy in engineering plastics; fire and cellulosics; and fire performance, testing and risk. Contributions come from sources as diverse as the Center
