dc.description.abstract	This work studied the effect of aluminum hydroxide as flame retardant chemical on the flame characteristics of high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP). This was by incorporating varying percentage concentrations of the flame retardant into the samples. The results showed that the flammability properties improved. The incorporation of flame retardant reduced flame propagation rate and after-glow time whereas ignitability time was enhanced.	en_US
