Flame Safe Works
Flame Safe's fire retardant actually interferes with the chemistry of the fire process. Flame Safes compounds automatically react in the presence of heat or flame to convert combustible gases and tars to non-combustible carbon char, nitrogen and carbon dioxide. The substantial increase in carbon char helps to keep the fire from regeneration. Nitrogen produced as a by-product displaces oxygen, smothering the fire. This chemical reaction also separates the fuel from the source of ignition. With this "double protection", Flame Safe's fire retardant dramatically outperforms others. Flame Safe treated wood will not burn, and it retards the propagation of the fire,(flame spread). Significantly, smoke development is reduced by 50% or more, and that is very important, considering that smoke inhalation causes more deaths than fire.
