Fire-retardant styrofoam can indeed play a role in fire prevention.
Fire-retardant styrofoam is a flame retardant added on the basis of polyurethane styrofoam, so that this material can play a role in flame retardant and fireproof in case of fire.
When the temperature reaches a certain value, such as 70°C, the fire-retardant styrofoam will begin to expand, thus stopping the spread of the fire. At the same time, the flame retardant will play a role in slowing down the fire, buying time for rescue, reducing the rapid development of the fire in a short period of time, causing irreversible impact.
However, it is worth noting that fire-retardant styrofoam does not completely avoid the occurrence of fire, but only reduces the risk and impact of fire under certain conditions. No material is absolutely safe, and it is also necessary to pay attention to its use and safety precautions when using fireproof styrofoam to ensure the safety of personnel and property.
In the event of a fire, we still need to rely on other firefighting measures and equipment to control the fire, such as fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems, etc. At the same time, we also need to strengthen the cultivation of fire prevention and safety awareness to reduce the risk of fire at the source.
