Metal-organic flame retardants (MOFRs) have been constantly applied to enhance fire safety
of polymers. Metallic compounds positively improve the MOFRs' performance in suppressing …

The use of polymer materials is inextricably linked to our manufacturing life. However, most
of them are easily combusted in the air and the combustion process generates a large …

The design of highly fire-safe and smoke-suppressive single-component epoxy (EP) resins
combining modest curing temperature and fast curing rate has been desirable yet very …

Flexible polyurethane foam (FPUF) is the most used polyurethane, but the highly flammable
characteristic limits its widespread usage. In this work, ZIF-8@ Ti 3 C 2 T x was synthesized …

The frequent occurrence of fires caused by rigid polyurethane foam highlights the
importance of its fire safety, however, the existing flame-retardant methods often seriously …

The fabrication of high-performance thermosetting polymers with intrinsic flame retardancy
and smoke suppression is necessary but challenging. Herein, we have successfully …

Considerable toxic gases and high temperature smoke will be generated during the
combustion of polystyrene (PS), which restricts its application. Here, a cobalt-based MOF-71 …

It has been well confirmed that metal oxide nanoparticles can simultaneously enhance the
flame retardancy and mechanical performance of polymer composites, owning to its …

Lightweight and multiscale nanocomposites are considered to be the most promising
materials applied in the field of advanced aerospace and modern building industry, owing to …

Polyurethane foam (PUF) is the most widely used polymeric foam, owing to its low cost,
