Short overview is given of BAM's research within the topic "Flame Retardancy of Polymeric Materials". Fire science is identified as a crucial compentenc of BAM following our mission "Safety in Technology and Chemistry". In the area of polymers we work interdisciplinary, in the dimensions from nm to 2m, and we love to combine experiment and simulation. Multimethodical examples are given to describe the burning phenomena and flame-retardant modes of action. Further some examples are presented for tailored bench-scale fire testing and assessing concepts. Our goal is to provide the fundaments for a evidenced-based development of future materials.
Efficient flame retardancy is often achieved only when applying multicomponent systems. Flame retardants are combined or used together with adjuvants or synergists; fibres and fillers contribute to fire properties crucially. Multicomponent systems are discussed in their capacity as general and powerful strategy for achieving and optimizing flame retardant polymeric materials.
