Developing green and sustainable materialsPolyurethane is one of the fastest-growing industries with a wide variety of commercial applications. Unfortunately, the high flammability of polyurethane foams restricts valuable developments. This two-volume (1399, 1400) set presents the state of the field of flame-retardant polyurethanes. This volume focuses on principles, materials, and applications of flame-retardant materials, including specific chapters on halogen-based flame retardants, nanomaterials, and industrial applications. This comprehensive set will be a valuable tool for scientists and researchers working on polyurethanes in both academia and industry.
