Adhesive-Material Combustibility-Reduction Methods. Part 1

Abstract

Translate Article

Combustibility requirements for aircraft materials are shown. Data are presented about the main methods of making adhesives less combustible by adding fire retardants, such as halogenous and phosphoric compounds, as well as mineral fillers that release carbon dioxide and water vapor upon heating. Properties and purposes of low-combustibility adhesives, as well as adhesive-combustibility testing methods, are presented.
