Article Synopsis
- The combustion of EPDM rubber leads to significant smoke production, which poses risks to both the environment and personal safety.
- There is a pressing need for advanced flame retardants that not only combat flames but also suppress smoke, as traditional options are inadequate under current safety and environmental standards.
- This research explores the creation of new flame-retardant systems using materials like sepiolite, graphene, and others, finding that sepiolite's unique porous structure helps minimize smoke emissions during the burning of EPDM composites.
