Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM THE INTRODUCTION "Considerable effort has gone into the study of various aspects of flammability and of various plastic materials, so that these materials which are proving so useful to man will always be used in ways which will not compromise his safety. The task is a continuing one, because the family of plastics continues to grow, and, a

Download or read book Fire Toxicity written by A A Stec and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-03-12 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toxic fire effluents are responsible for the majority of fire deaths, and an increasing large majority of fire injuries, driven by the widespread and increasing use of synthetic polymers. Fire safety has focused on preventing ignition and reducing flame spread through reducing the rate of heat release, while neglecting the important issue of fire toxicity. This is the first reference work on fire toxicity and the only scientific publication on the subject in the last 15 years. Assessment of toxic effects of fires is increasingly being recognised as a key factor in the assessment of fire hazards. This book raises important issues including the types of toxic effluents that different fires produce, their physiological effects, methods for generation and assessment of fire toxicity, current and proposed regulations and approaches to modelling the toxic impact of fires. The contributors to Fire toxicity represent an international team of the leading experts in each aspect of this challenging and important field. This book provides an important reference work for professionals in the fire community, including fire fighters, fire investigators, regulators, fire safety engineers, and formulators of fire-safe materials. It will also prove invaluable to researchers in academia and industry. Investigates the controversial subject of toxic effluents as the cause of the majority of fire deaths and injuries Describes the different types of toxic effluents and the specific fires that they produce, their physiological effects and methods for generation Provides an overview of national and international fire safety regulations including current and proposed regulations such as a standardized framework for prediction of fire gas toxicity

Download or read book Overview of Smoke Toxicity Testing and Regulations written by and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, more people are injured and die from fire combustion products than from direct heat/flame exposure. Evaluations have shown that personnel remote from the source of a fire are particularly at risk from fire effluent from post flashover fire scenarios. Various test methods have been developed to assess the toxic potential of smoke from burning materials. These test methods are sensitive to the fire exposure (e.g., smoldering vs. flaming), size of the sample, and translation of the measured gases to toxic potential to humans in a real-scale scenario. Test methods use either bioassay methodologies (animal testing) or analytical techniques to establish toxic potency of burning materials. Available test methods are reviewed. Few jurisdictions currently regulate material toxicity in terms of specific criteria. Options for evaluating material toxic potency are outlined. These options should be considered in terms of the material use and hazard, other methods to reduce toxic hazard (e.g., by carefully regulating material ignition, flame spread, and heat release), and the introduction of new/novel materials for shipboard applications.
