Abstract

This article is devoted to the analysis of existing methods of increasing the fire resistance of elastomers. The stages and mechanism of the combustion process are considered. Methods for assessing flammability, flammability classes, and prescription methods for increasing the fire resistance of rubbers are described. Rubbers that are of interest for the creation of materials with reduced flammability are listed, and energy characteristics, by which their resistance to open flame is assessed, are given. Traditional flame-retardants used to increase the fire resistance of elastomers and the new ones are presented. The areas of application of low-flammable rubbers are shown.
