What is the role of flame retardants?
Flame retardants are designed to reduce the flammability of a material, slow the spread of fire, and reduce the amount of smoke emitted during a fire. The treatment method varies depending on the type of material, the structure of the product, and the intended use.
The choice between impregnation, incorporation of the material into the product, or application of a coating layer is made based on the desired result and the appropriate tests.
Reducing the flammability of the material
Reducing the material's tendency to ignite and continue to burn
Slowing the spread of fire
Extending the time until the flame spreads across the product
Reducing smoke emissions
Adapting treatment aimed at reducing the product's contribution to smoking
Compliance with classification requirements
Selecting treatment and testing according to the application and requirement applicable to the product
The process of adjusting and reviewing treatment
1
Product definition and usage
Collect data on the raw material, shape, thickness and conditions of use
2
Defining the classification requirement
Fire requirement testing and appropriate testing for the product
3
Choosing a treatment method
Adjusting the impregnation, additive, varnish or paint according to the product
4
Sample preparation and application specification
Applying the treatment to conditions that represent the final product
5
Performing a test
Coordination of the test with the laboratory and the parties involved
6
Analysis of the result and continued treatment
Review the results and decide if further adjustment is required
How is the treatment method chosen?
The adjustment is made according to the type of material, thickness and shape of the product, conditions of use, appearance requirements, method of application, and the fire classification required after testing.
Sampling, application and testing support
To obtain a representative result, a match between the material being tested and the final product is required, a proper sample preparation, and application according to specifications. Support can include coordination between the manufacturer, the application team, and the testing laboratory.
Flame retardant treatment methods
Impregnation with flame retardant material
Introducing an active ingredient into an absorbent material and then drying it.

Incorporating the inhibitor into the product
Mixing the inhibitor into the plastic, resin or raw material during production.
Clear varnish will be heat-treated
A decorative coating that reacts to heat and keeps the flame and oxygen away from the substrate.
Heat-inflated paint system
A coating that creates an insulating layer when exposed to heat and reduces the material's contribution to combustion.

The test result should reflect the final product and the application method that will actually be used.
The first device - Tel. 755
Tests the properties of the entire coating system, including its flame retardants, and defines the classification of fire spread, smoke emission, and deformation of the entire product being tested.
The second standard - 921
Officially defines, for each type of building designation, what fire classification is required/appropriate for each part of the building. The standard is divided into different building designations and their division according to their height.
