The effects of some flame retardant chemicals used in surface coating on the burning properties of MDF (Medium density fiberboard)
In this study, the surfaces of MDF were coated with a mixture of calcite, fire retardant (FR) and glue. Then the properties of MDF boards combustion resistance were investigated. Borax and muscovite, known as flame retardants, were added to the mixture at 1%, 3% and 5% relative to the oven dry weigh...

description | In this study, the surfaces of MDF were coated with a
mixture of calcite, fire retardant (FR) and glue. Then the properties of MDF
boards combustion resistance were investigated. Borax and muscovite, known as
flame retardants, were added to the mixture at 1%, 3% and 5% relative to the
oven dry weight of calcite. The burning tests of the samples were carried out according
to ASTM E 69 standard so that the combustion characteristics could be
determined. The weight loss, temperature, O2, CO and NO gas emissions
quantities of the test samples were measured. The measurements were recorded
every 30 seconds. Borax had the most positive effect on weight loss (74.5%) and
O2 amount (20.5%), while muscovite 5% chemistry had a greater effect on
temperature (289 oC) and NO amount (342 ppm). Borax and muscovite used in
surface coating have been positively influenced on burning performance
depending on addition rate. |
