Characterization Of Halogen-Free Core Material With Various Flame Retardants

The effect of three different types of halogen-free flame retardants, which are the intumescent ammonium polyphosphates (APP), melamine cyanurate (MC) and calcium borate (CaB) on epoxy/glass fiber composites was studied. The single and hybrid flame retardant fillers were used to investigate the comp...
