Synergistic evolution of flame-retardant hybrid structure of poly vinyl alcohol, starch and kaolin for coating on wooden substrate

Chemiresistive sensor for breath frequency and ammonia concentration in exhaled gas over a PVA/PANI/CC composite film

“…The regular weight loss of the film was periodically monitored using a Sartorius chemical balance with the least count of 0.1 mg. 38 Further, the under-writer laboratory test (UL 94) was used to measure the burning behavior of the constituent polymer and PVA–PANI–CC composites. 39 Initially, wooden strips were coated with the PVA–PANI–CC composite, and then a flame retardancy test was performed for UL 94. The five specimens for each sample with a length of 5 cm, thickness 2.19 mm, and width 1 cm were tested in the vertical mode and their mean reported.…”

Synthesis and Applications of Supramolecular Flame Retardants: A Review

“…Some inorganic materials with 1D nanostructures, such as halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) [ 38 , 39 ], multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) [ 40 ], various whiskers [ 41 , 42 ], nanowire materials [ 43 ], etc., have certain flame-retardant and smoke-suppressing effects. But there are problems with agglomeration, which deteriorates the mechanical properties of the matrix due to excessive addition.…”

“…Some inorganic materials with 1D nanostructures, such as halloysite nan (HNTs) [38,39], multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) [40], various whiskers nanowire materials [43], etc., have certain flame-retardant and smoke-suppressing But there are problems with agglomeration, which deteriorates the mechanical pro of the matrix due to excessive addition. How to design and optimize the more ad geous 1D organic-inorganic hybrid FRs has certain research significance for the de ment of efficient flame-retardant systems and improving the mechanical propertie matrix.…”
