1. Micrometric mineral compounds
To reduce the flammability of polymer materials, inorganic fillers are often added because of their low cost, ease of use (additive addition) and good fire resistance, or even incombustibility. A distinction is made between inert and active fillers, based on their mode of action .
Inert fillers reduce flammability and the amount of smoke produced, essentially by diluting the mass fraction of combustible...
