Fire Properties of Polymer Composite Materials

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a model for modeling composites in fire and showed that composites can resist fire under load and post-fire properties of laminates under load.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential release pathways, environmental fate, and ecological risks of carbon nanotubes.

TL;DR: This work critically review this literature on the release of CNTs from polymeric products, removal in wastewater treatment systems, transport through surface and subsurface media, aggregation behaviors, interactions with soil and sediment particles, potential transformations and degradation, and their potential ecotoxicity in soil, sediment, and aquatic ecosystems.

Pyrolysis combustion flow calorimetry

TL;DR: A method for evaluating the combustibility of milligram samples is described in this paper, where the maximum amount of heat released per unit mass per degree of temperature (J g−1 K−1) is a material property that appears to be a good predictor of flammability.

A Generalized Pyrolysis Model for Combustible Solids

TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized model for simulating pyrolysis, gasification, and burning of a wide range of solid fuels encountered in fires is presented, which can be applied to noncharring and charring solids, composites, intumescent coatings and smolder in porous media.
Journal ArticleDOI

Some comments on the use of cone calorimeter data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the impact of the principal setup on the performance of the cone calorimeter, including the choice of external heat flux, the peak of heat release rate of sample thickness and thermal feedback from the back of the sample, and the influence on irradiance of the horizontal and vertical distances from the cone heater.
