Notes:
The burning characteristics of glass-reinforced panels with an isophthalic polyester resin, the same resin with an inorganic flame retardant, two differing vinylester resins or a resole phenolic as the matrix were tested at a range of incident heat flux values using a cone calorimeter. The phenolic composite was superior at all levels showing a longer ignition time, reduced heat output, less contribution to a low-level sustained fire (25 kWm-2) and lower smoke yield.
