Evaluation of smoke gas toxicity and smoke density of bus interior materials

Anna Sandinge et al.

Summary: Materials used for interior parts in buses are evaluated for fire properties and smoke production. While the materials met the requirements for fire classification, they produced dark smoke and melting burning pieces. The high smoke production would reduce visibility and hinder safe evacuation of passengers in case of a fire. Additionally, toxic gases were detected in the smoke.

Hollow LDH cage covering with ultra-thin MXenes veil: Integrated micro-nano structure upon heat release suppression and toxic effluents elimination for polymer

Haobo Zhou et al.

Summary: In this study, a strongly-coupled micro-nano structure based on hollow LDH with ultra-thin MXenes veil (MX@H-LDH) was designed via assembly strategy. Loading 5.0 wt% MX@H-LDH reduced peak heat release rate, total heat release, peak CO production rate and total CO production by 54.6%, 37.5%, 47.4%, and 63.6% respectively. The mechanical interlocking action of MX@H-LDH strengthened the mechanical capability and the curbed toxic gas releases were observed. This work is instructive for the design of novel MXenes-based nanostructures in polymer composites with high performance.

Hao-Ran Chen et al.

Summary: The catalytic dehydrogenation and carbonization of polystyrene by Ti3C2Tx-MXene nanosheets have been successfully achieved to synthesize highly graphitic carbon quantum dots (CQDs).
