Market Definition

According to the PINFA (Phosphorus, Inorganic, and Nitrogen Flame Retardant) Association, “Flame retardants are key components in reducing the devastating effect of fire mishaps on people, property, and the environment. The most common elements used as flame retardants are bromine, chlorine, and phosphorus. The compounds of these elements are added to treat potentially flammable materials. Flame retardants stop the fire by interacting with the fire cycle in the gaseous phase and stop the chemical chain reaction. They act in two ways - they either prevent the fire from starting or slow it down significantly. They are added to plastics, among other materials, and do not alter the properties of the parent material.”
