Abstract
Flame retardant nanocomposites are now being shown to offer significant benefits in wire and cable applications. Dr. Günter Beyer of Kabelwerk Eupen AG describes the results of some recent work on developing EVA nanocomposites that can offer a strong reduction in heat release with char formation by the nanocomposites.
