Abstract

Abstract:- Fire hazard is now one of the vital issues in different sectors such as construction, industry, home utensilsautomobiles etc. The property of flame retadancy of the composites of the polymeric materials can be increased either bymodification of the matrix and reinforcing phases or by offering a protective barrier by coating the composite material orby addition of suitable flame retardant additive materials. The flame retardant additive materials may be micro or nanoscale sized particles, which includes inorganic hydroxide, metal hydroxides, halogen, nitrogen, phosphorus, silicon, boronbased materials, clay-layered silicates and some carbon based materials. In this work we discuss about the types of fireretardant materials added to polymer composites to improve the property of fire retadancy, its effectiveness,development and application. The fire retardant materials are a blessing to our society, which prevents the dangerousfire hazards and can be effectively used as construction and automobile materials.Keywords: Biopolymers, Fire retradency, Nano composite.
