Flame-retardant polystyrene is used primarily in expanded foam for building insulation. Rubber-modified styrenic polymers are flame retarded for use in a number of applications, such as enclosures for electronics and business equipment. By far the largest volume flame-retardant HIPS application is television enclosures (Figure 29.1) these are made primarily from flame-retardant HIPS [3]. Flame-retardant HIPS has an attractive balance of mechanical properties, processability and cost. Flame-retardant styrenic blends such as HIPS-PPO and PC-ABS also find utility in a number of electrical applications such as printers, computers and monitors. These blends have received increasing attention recently because of their ability to be flame retarded with nonhalogen flame retardants (see Section 7).

The debris from a bomb blast site usually contains traces of the undetonated explosive. Therefore, the location of the explosive at the point of detonation must be located and the debris and closely surrounding soil should be removed, packaged, and labeled. The objects located near the explosion are good sources of explosive residue. Wood, insulation, rubber, or other soft materials which are readily penetrated often collect traces of the explosive. 

All insulators in the Hi Lite family use an innovative and unique silicone compound to provide an unbonded interface between insulating rubber housing and load-bearing fiberglass core. This interface has proven to be more reliable than the chemically bonded type of interface.

Very large chlorinated polymers also have special properties which make them commercially valuable. The most important of these, the polyvinyl chlorides (PVCs), are used for electrical insulation, rubber substitutes (tubing, belting, and gaskets), and the production of water-resistant, artificial textiles. 

Like hands, feet experience less vigorous blood circulation in the cold, making them susceptible to serious injuries. Winter s special circumstances may warrant seasonal-specific footwear. If exposure to rain or snow is likely, those favorite leather boots that are worn in milder weather should be left in the closet. Insulated rubber boots are much more effective at acting as a barrier to precipitation. PPG for the feet should be larger than the size normally worn, in order to accommodate thick socks and, beneath them, thin cotton liners that provide a layer of insulation.

Use appropriate personal protective equipment. Antiflash clothing and eye protection will be appropriate where there is a risk of flashover or arcing. Insulating rubber gloves will be appropriate when live conductors are being handled. The PPE must be maintained in good condition. 

Before the advent of PVC for wire insulation, rubber was used. Because rubber contains double bonds (Section 2.1) it is a fairly reactive material, and reaction with atmospheric oxygen is reputed to have introduced a dipolar loss peak at about 50 Hz, which was held responsible for many house fires.
