Abstract
The present invention relates to fire retardant compositions, and fire retardant objects formed therefrom comprising a preformed gas-producing material and a matrix, wherein, in use, the gas-producing material prevents, limits or reduces combustion of the matrix. Also disclosed are methods of producing fire retardant compositions, methods of making objects formed therefrom as well as structures having fire retardant properties.
Claims25
A fire retardant material comprising a preformed gas-producing material admixed with a matrix, wherein the preformed gas-producing material comprises:
- a) a comminuted foamed polymer;
- b) a nitrogen-containing fuel;
- and
- c) an oxidiser.
A fire retardant composite comprising a substrate bonded to a layer of polymeric material, and further comprising a preformed gas-producing material, admixed with the polymeric material and/or the substrate;
- wherein the preformed gas-producing material comprises a comminuted foamed polymer, a nitrogen-containing fuel, and an oxidiser.
A wall panel, ceiling panel, floor panel, cladding, or partition panel comprising a fire retardant material comprising a preformed gas-producing material admixed with a matrix, wherein the preformed gas-producing material comprises a comminuted foamed polymer, a nitrogen-containing fuel, and an oxidiser.
A table, chair, vase, shelves, cupboard, or part thereof, comprising a fire retardant material comprising a preformed gas-producing material admixed with a matrix, wherein the preformed gas-producing material comprises a comminuted foamed polymer, a nitrogen-containing fuel, and an oxidiser.
A tile comprising a fire retardant material comprising a preformed gas-producing material admixed with a matrix, wherein the preformed gas-producing material comprises a comminuted foamed polymer, a nitrogen-containing fuel, and an oxidiser.
