This book covers the latest developments in phenolic foams and their  applications. Compared with polystyrene and polyurethane foams, phenolic  foams are known as third-generation polymeric foams. Phenolic foams  exhibit excellent fire-retardant properties, including low flammability,  low peak heat release rate, no dripping during combustion, and low  toxicity. This book discusses various aspects of phenolic foams  including properties, synthesis, fabrication methodologies, and  applications. The contents also cover the methods for toughening of  phenolic foams to make them more widely applicable. This book is of  interest to both academics and industry alike. It is also a useful  reference for fire safety regulators and policy-makers looking for new  materials and methods for sustainable fire protection.
