“…Chitosan is a non-toxic, biodegradable natural biopolymer [ 55 ], and is the second largest natural fiber after cellulose [ 56 ]. Chitosan contains amino groups and hydroxyl groups in its molecular structure, which can be applied as a carbon source for intumescent flame-retardant systems and is widely applied in the field of wood flame-retardant research [ 57 ].…”

Wood-based materials are multifunctional green and environmentally friendly natural construction materials, and are widely used in decorative building materials. For this reason, a lot of research has been carried out to develop new and innovative wood surface improvements and make wood more appealing through features such as fire-retardancy, hydrophobicity, and antibacterial properties. To improve the performance of wood, more and more attention is being paid to the functioning of the surface. Understanding and mastering technology to improve the surface functionality of wood opens up new possibilities for developing multifunctional and high-performance materials. Examples of these techniques are ion crosslinking modification and coating modification. Researchers have been trying to make wooden surfaces more practical for the past century. This study has gradually gained popularity in the field of wood material science over the last 10 years. This paper provides an experimental reference for research on wood surface functionalization and summarizes the most current advancements in hydrophobic, antibacterial, and flame-retardant research on wood surfaces.

“…The study by Parankar et al presented a technique for the preparation of chitosan-based finishes that impart flame-retardant, UV-protective, and antibacterial properties to cotton fabrics. The method involves the synthesis of nitrogen-and phosphorus-rich green multifunctional chemicals to achieve these functional enhancements in the cotton fabrics [36]. The thermal analysis of enclosed domes with double-layer PTFE fabric roofs integrated with aerogel-glass wool insulation mats was discussed by Yin et al The study included on-site testing of the thermal environment in a sports dome with this roof configuration [37].…”

“…Based on the demand for environmental protection, biodegradable biomass materials from a wide range of sources have gained increasing attention from researchers [ 21 , 22 , 23 ]. Owing to their unique structures, many biomass materials have been used to prepare bio-based flame retardants, including phytic acid (PA) [ 24 , 25 ], chitosan [ 26 , 27 ], lignin [ 28 , 29 ], cashew phenols [ 30 , 31 ], and eugenol [ 32 ]. These bio-based flame retardants can be converted into intumescent flame retardants via the addition of phosphorus and nitrogen [ 33 , 34 ].…”

To broaden the applications of wood, it is necessary to prepare flame-retardant coatings that can protect wood substrates during combustion. In this study, a bio-based, intumescent, flame-retardant phytic acid–melamine polyelectrolyte (PM) was prepared using phosphorus-rich biomass phytic acid and nitrogen-rich melamine as raw materials through an ion crosslinking reaction. Subsequently, a series of bio-based, flame-retardant wood coatings were prepared by optimizing the structure of urea–formaldehyde resin with the addition of melamine, sodium lignosulfonate, and PM as a flame-retardant curing agent. Woods coated with PM-containing coatings displayed significantly improved flame-retardant performances in comparison to uncoated woods. For PM-cured woods, the measured values of total heat release and total smoke production were 91.51% and 57.80% lower, respectively, compared with those of uncoated wood. Furthermore, the fire growth index decreased by 97.32%, indicating a lower fire hazard. This increase in flame retardancy and smoke suppression performance is due to the dense expanded carbon layer formed during the combustion of the coating, which isolates oxygen and heat. In addition, the mechanical properties of the flame-retardant coatings cured with PM are similar to those cured with a commercial curing agent, NH4Cl. In addition, the prepared flame-retardant coating can also stain the wood. This study proves the excellent flame-retarding and curing effect of ammonium phytate in urea–formaldehyde resin coatings and provides a new approach for the application of bio-based flame retardants in wood coatings.
