Over the past years, pyrolysis models have moved from thermal models to comprehensive
models with great flexibility including multi-step decomposition reactions. However, the …

Charring composite materials occupy a critical position in industrial applications or more
broadly in our daily life. The disadvantage of these materials involves the disability in …

Consideration was given to the issues relating to safety conditions and security
arrangements during the thermal decomposition of wood at the time of the fire in the …

Under the fact that previous studies have usually ignored the influences of room
configuration, wall solar chimney under both cooling and heating modes were analysed …

Molecules containing different elements and moieties like PN and PO-Si have high impact
on flame retardant properties. In this study, a novel group of flame retardants based on …

Besides piloted ignition, autoignition is also an important aspect to real fire development as
combustible materials may be ignited without independent flame. Fire behaviors of non …

In this study, paraffin was selected as the phase change material (PCM) and high-density
polyethylene (HDPE) as the supporting material to prepare a flame-retardant PCM system …

Many serious fires have occurred in recent years due to the ignition of external building
insulation materials by hot metallic particles. This work studied the ignition of expandable …

Thermogravimetric analyses under air atmosphere were performed up to 973 K on balsa
wood to investigate the thermal degradation process of two types of samples aged …

Many post-harvest technologies have been applied to prolong the shelf life of black truffles;
however, most of them negatively modify the genuine fresh truffle aroma. A novel edible …
