This article covers the introduction to polymer composites, phenol formaldehyde resin,
phenol formaldehyde composites, and foams along with their properties and applications …

Phenolic foams are widely used as insulation materials in construction, transportation, and
spacecraft industries due to their flame retardancy, thermal stability, low toxicity, and low …

The use of composite materials, because of their light weight and high performance, has
increased manifold over the years, starting from aerospace to building applications …

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to characterize the structure of phenol
formaldehyde (PF) resin pyrolyzed at different temperatures, and pyrolysis gas …

Red phosphorus (RP) particles are commercially available as a flame-retardant additive for
polymers. Conventionally, RP is encapsulated with a protective organic coating. In the …

Limited by the knowledge of the structure and pyrolysis mechanism of cured phenolic resin
(PR), the influence of cross-link density (CLD) on the heat resistance of PR remains unclear …

Highly filled polybenzoxazine nanocomposites filled with nano-SiO 2 particles were
investigated for their mechanical and thermal properties as a function of filler loading. The …

In this study, phenolic foam (PF)/multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composites
were fabricated by in-situ polymerization, and carbonized foams based on these PF foams …

Earth has become depleted of oil and has suffered from the misuse of non-biodegradable
plastics. Significant efforts have been dedicated to addressing the application flaws of …

ZrO 2 nanoparticles were electrostatic self-assembled on the surface of graphene oxide
(GO) for enhancing the mechanical and tribological properties of phenolic resin. Zeta …
