Enhanced flame retardancy of flexible polyurethane foam with low loading of liquid halogen-free phosphonium thiocyanate

Huhu Zhou et al.

Summary: By synthesizing and incorporating a room temperature ionic liquid, TPT, containing phosphorus and sulfur elements into flexible polyurethane foam at a low dosage, enhanced flame retardancy can be achieved without compromising thermal stability and mechanical performance. The use of TPT in FPUF significantly reduces peak heat release rate and increases oxygen index value.

Toxicity characteristics and fire retardant performance of commercially manufactured organic insulation materials for building applications

Seunghwan Wi et al.

Summary: Traditionally, insulation materials were developed to prevent heat loss or gain in buildings, but they are flammable and emit harmful chemicals. This study evaluated the fire resistance performance of five insulation materials, with phenolic foam being the only one meeting the noncombustible grade criteria.

Airborne emissions from combustion of graphene nanoplatelet/epoxy composites and their cytotoxicity on lung cells via air-liquid interface cell exposure in vitro

Woranan Netkueakul et al.

Summary: This study investigated the emissions of particles and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from the combustion of graphene nanoplatelet (GNP)-reinforced products, as well as the cytotoxicity of these emissions on lung cells. GNP was not detected in the emissions, but PAHs were found in both emissions from pure epoxy (EP) and GNP-reinforced epoxy (EP-GNP). The exposed cells showed no acute effects but exhibited activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor and a transient (pro-) inflammatory response.

Fire Propagation Characteristics and Fire Risks of Polyurethanes: Effects of Material Type (Foam & Board) and Added Flame Retardant

Ji Hun Choi et al.

Summary: This study investigates the flame propagation characteristics of polyurethane and the influence of adding flame retardants. Multiple tests were conducted to examine ignition properties, flame propagation behavior, heat release, and toxicity. The results show that polyurethane with flame retardants exhibits slower flame propagation, residual flame, and delayed energy transfer to the inside.

Investigation on the structural feature and gasification reactivity of bio-char derived from energy crop

Yun Liu et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of pyrolysis heating rate on the char structure and CO2 gasification reactivity of energy crops, revealing that bio-char obtained at a rapid heating rate had more structural defects and carbon crystallite imperfections, leading to higher gasification reactivity. However, this also resulted in a decrease in crystallization size, graphitization, and aromatization degree.

Effects of Various Types of Expandable Graphite and Blackcurrant Pomace on the Properties of Viscoelastic Polyurethane Foams

Rafal Oliwa et al.

Summary: The study found that adding blackcurrant pomace to expandable graphite composites can improve the functional properties of viscoelastic polyurethane foams, resulting in changes in parameters such as hardness, limiting oxygen index, and peak heat release rate. This change is related to alterations in the physical and chemical structure of the foams.

Chemical compounds released by combustion of polymer composites flat belts

Piotr Krawiec et al.

Summary: This article examines the emission level of toxic chemical compounds most often produced during the thermal decomposition and combustion of flat drive and conveyor belts, testing six types of flat belts made of various polymer materials and finding that gas emission concentration limits for all the tested belts were significantly exceeded. Comparing to V-belts, flat belts demonstrate lower emission levels of harmful compounds. Additionally, belts made of modern materials exhibit no emission of hydrogen chloride compounds during thermal decomposition and combustion, unlike traditional rubber-based belts.

Surface modification of multi-scale cuprous oxide with tunable catalytic activity towards toxic fumes and smoke suppression of rigid polyurethane foam

Yao Yuan et al.

Summary: In this study, cuprous oxide (Cu2O) crystals of different sizes were successfully prepared using a wet chemical approach, and it was found that incorporating them into RPUF can significantly reduce smoke and toxic gases emissions. The nano-sized Cu2O with high specific surface area is particularly effective in promoting the complete combustion of RPUF and conversion of CO to CO2, demonstrating potential practical applications in polymeric materials.

Flame retardant flexible polyurethane foams based on phosphorous soybean-oil polyol and expandable graphite

Yin Yam Chan et al.

Summary: An alternative phosphorous soybean-oil-based polyol was used for flexible polyurethane foams synthesis, with the addition of 5% and 10% expandable graphite (EG) to improve flame retardancy. The combination of phosphorous polyols and EG showed significantly enhanced flame retardancy, with a three times increase in char yield, indicating a potential strategy for future flame retarded FPUFs.
