Flame retardants can be defined as
additive materials used to inhibit flames and to stop the magnification
of burning. These are materials with large non-inflammable effect such
as halogen, phosphorus, nitrogen containing compound, and hydroxide
metallic compound, etc. At present, flame retardants are mostly applied
in plastics and rubber which in turn are used in the manufacturing of
building and construction; electrical and electronics; wire and cable;
automobile and transportation; textile; etc. These do not impart any
property to the material with which they are added. However, these
inhibit or delay burning of materials and are indispensable for
protecting electrical appliances, construction materials, and textiles.
With increasing fire safety standards across the globe and growing use
of flammable materials, flame retardant chemicals are gaining more and
more importance.
This study estimates the global market of flame retardant chemicals by the end of 2017. Asia-Pacific is one of the most dominant markets for flame retardant chemicals, accounting for 48.5% of the global volume consumption in 2011. It is the fastest growing region for the flame retardant chemicals market both in terms of production and consumption. Flame retardant chemicals owing to their advanced and better quality characteristics are one of the fastest growing segments of today's plastic additives industry.
