Additive flame retardant offers several advantages in terms of formulation, improved
performance and reduced environmental impact. These additives result in superior thermal …

Due to dwindling petroleum resources and the need for environmental protection, the
development of bio-based flame retardants has received much attention. In order to explore …

The high brittleness and flammability issues of epoxy resins (EPs) seriously limit their high-
performance applications in industries. However, most of the current research has been …

Polypropylene (PP) was modified by expandable graphite (EG) and magnesium hydroxide
(MH) to enhance its flame retardancy. The impact of EG particle size on fire behavior of …

Flame spread over a solid surface is a critical metric in assessing the fire hazard of a
material. At the core of the flame spread problem is heat transfer to and within the solid fuel …

Research findings on the patterns of thermal decomposition and combustion are reported for
widely used interior design materials. The experiments were conducted using a hardware …

The two obvious drawbacks of aluminum trihydrate (ATH) as a flame retardant to polymers
are its low efficiency and poor resistance to both acid and alkali. To overcome these faults …

The objective of this work is to investigate the roles of ATH particle size in pyrolysis, ignition
and burning behaviors of FR-cable jacket, as well as effects of NS additive. Series of TG …

To solve the fire accidents caused by coal combustion, this work prepared four hybrid
hydrogel materials using bio-based polymers, flame retardants, and inorganic materials …

The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically expanded the use of Personal Protection Equipment
(PPE). The most commonly used PPEs against the COVID-19 virus were masks, gloves, face …
