1 Overview of flame retardants by polymer<br />
This table gives an overview of commercially available non halogenated flame retardants.<br />
Often, combinations of the given substances, which may have synergistic effects, are used.<br />
They are not specified here, as the individual formulation is up <strong>to</strong> the polymer compounder<br />
and often regarded as company know how. The abbreviations are listed at the end of the<br />
document. Please send any comments or information on new FRs and applications <strong>to</strong><br />
