| 词条 | List of fire-retardant materials |
| 释义 |
Fire-retardant materials should not be confused with fire-resistant materials. A fire resistant material is one that is designed to resist burning and withstand heat, however, fire-retardant materials are designed to burn slowly. An example of a fire-resistant material is one which is used in bunker gear worn by firefighters to protect them from the flames of a burning building. In the United Kingdom, after two significant construction fires which resulted in a combined loss of £1500 million, The Joint Code of Practice was introduced by the national fire safety organisation, {FPA},[1] to prevent fires on buildings undergoing construction work. The Joint Code of Practice provides advice on how to prevent fires such as the use of flame-retardant temporary protection materials such as some high quality floor protectors which are designed to burn slowly and prevent the spread of fires.
