Fire Retardancy of Polymeric Materials
暫譯: 聚合物材料的防火性

第三版的《聚合材料的阻燃性》提供了這個高度挑戰性應用研究領域的所有方面的單一來源。這本權威的書籍涵蓋了設計和非防火要求，這些要求影響這些材料的防火保護方式。

Alexander B. Morgan received his B.S in Chemistry from Virginia Military Institute in 1994 and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of South Carolina in 1998. Dr. Morgan has over twenty-seven years of experience in the areas of materials flammability, polymeric material flame retardancy, fire science, fire testing, thermal decomposition chemistry, and fire safety engineering with an emphasis on chemical structure property relationships and fire safe material design. He has helped academic, government, and industrial customers solve their flame retardant and fire safety needs in a wide range of applications. Dr. Morgan is on the editorial review board for Fire and Materials, and is the Editor-in-Chief for the Journal of Fire Science. He is also a member of ASTM, Sigma Xi, the International Association of Fire Safety Scientists, and the American Chemical Society. His current research areas include:

• New Flame Retardant Technology with Reduced Environmental Impact for Electronics, Building Materials, Bedding/Furniture, Wire & Cable, Transportation, Textiles.
• Fire Testing Method Development
• Fire Safety / Survivability for Aircraft and Ground Vehicles
• Materials Development, and Technology Assessment for Additive Manufacturing for Aerospace Applications

Charles A. Wilkie received his BS degree in Chemistry from the University of Detroit in 1963 and his Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry from Wayne State University in 1967. He subsequently joined Marquette University as an Assistant Professor and rose through the ranks until retiring in 2009; he now is Professor Emeritus. In 1978, he read a paper on phosphorus-based flame retardants and decided to move into that area. He has worked in the field of flame retardancy for more than 30 years. His initial work was to attempt to understand mechanistically how a flame retardant interacts with a polymer. His research group also did quite a bit of work on nano-composite based flame retardancy. Wilkie has served, and continues to serve, on the editorial boards of several journals and has been involved with organizing several meetings in this area.

亞歷山大·B·摩根於1994年在維吉尼亞軍事學院獲得化學學士學位，並於1998年在南卡羅來納大學獲得化學博士學位。摩根博士在材料可燃性、聚合物材料阻燃性、火災科學、火災測試、熱分解化學及消防安全工程等領域擁有超過二十七年的經驗，特別強調化學結構與性質之間的關係以及防火材料的設計。他幫助學術界、政府及工業客戶解決各種應用中的阻燃劑和消防安全需求。摩根博士是《火災與材料》期刊的編輯審查委員會成員，並擔任火災科學期刊的主編。他還是美國材料與試驗協會（ASTM）、西格瑪西（Sigma Xi）、國際消防安全科學家協會及美國化學學會的成員。他目前的研究領域包括：

• 對電子產品、建材、床上用品/家具、電線與電纜、交通運輸、紡織品的環境影響較小的新型阻燃技術。


• 火災測試方法的開發


• 航空器和地面交通工具的消防安全/生存能力


• 航空航天應用的增材製造材料開發及技術評估

查爾斯·A·威爾基於1963年在底特律大學獲得化學學士學位，並於1967年在韋恩州立大學獲得無機化學博士學位。隨後，他加入馬凱特大學擔任助理教授，並逐步晉升，直到2009年退休；目前為名譽教授。1978年，他發表了一篇關於磷基阻燃劑的論文，並決定進入該領域。他在阻燃領域工作超過30年。最初的工作是試圖從機制上理解阻燃劑如何與聚合物相互作用。他的研究小組還在基於納米複合材料的阻燃性方面做了相當多的工作。威爾基曾擔任並繼續擔任幾本期刊的編輯委員會成員，並參與組織該領域的多次會議。
