Improve Fire Safety of Wood-Plastic Composites and Plastic Lumber
BATON ROUGE, La., March 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Wood-plastic composites
(WPC) and plastic lumber are quickly establishing themselves in the building
and construction industry as superior alternatives to wood and other
materials in decking, siding, and roofing applications. The use of these
innovative materials -- products that look like wood but can be processed
like plastic -- in other applications such as automotive, furniture and
pallets, to name a few, is only likely to increase as manufacturers discover
easy solutions for flame retarding their resins to meet product safety and
regulatory requirements.
