Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a method to reduce flame spread within a room by attaching an interior finish compising at least 80 weight percent of a polymer composition to a ceiling, one or more walls, or combination thereof, wherein the interior finish partially or completely detaches from the wall or ceiling upon exposure to the heat of a flame. The polymer composition has certain properties of crystallization half-time, heat release capacity, and char generation and can comprise one or more polymers. The interior finish may detach or partially detach from the ceiling or wall as a result its thermal behavior when exposed to heat or as a result of softening or melting of fasteners. The spacing of the fasteners of the interior finish is dependent on the physical properties of the polymer.
