FLAME RETARDANT FOAMS

摘要

A flame retardant article foamed substrate is described, the article comprising a polymeric foam material comprising a polymer, antimony-free fire retardant and a plurality of microspheres, the foam material having an outer surface; and an adhesive layer on the outer surface, the adhesive layer is preferably formulated without fire retardant. The polymeric foam material is selected from the group consisting of elastomers, rubbers, thermoplastic elastomers, rubber based and acrylic adhesives, polyolefin polymers, acrylate polymers and methacrylate polymers, acrylate and methacrylate copolymers, and combinations thereof. The adhesive layer may comprise a pressure sensitive adhesive, a heat-activated adhesive, or the like. Viscoelastic or elastic microfibers may be incorporated into the foam material, into the adhesive layer, or both to impart stretch release properties to the finished article.
