Effects of carbon nanotubes on flame spread rate over 1-propanol

MI Hassan, E Grulke, K Chuah, K Saito - Fire safety journal, 2005 - Elsevier
This paper discusses the potential for thermally conductive nanoparticles to reduce flame
spread velocities over fuel dispersion mixtures. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs)
were dispersed in 1-propanol at levels above the mixture's percolation limit, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4,
8, and 12 wt%, and tested in a rectangular fuel tray and a shallow pan flame spread system.
The MWNTs/1-propanol mixtures had much lower flame spread rates than the original fuel
itself at temperatures below 1-propanol's flash point. A 2 wt% MWNT loading reduced the …
