Beskrivning

Analysis of Flame Retardancy in Polymer Science is a scientific/practical book that is conceptualized, designed, and written for students, early-career researchers, and junior engineers to explain the basic principles of fire analysis/characterization methods/methodologies, from flammability, ignition, and fire spread to forced convection and related analyses and to elucidate the mechanisms underlying flame retardancy in both gas and condensed phases followed by correlation between laboratory- and real-scale fire analyses as well as fire analysis from an industrial standpoint. This book is also an indispensable resource for identifying and mounting the latest achievements in fire analysis/characterization methods to frame the effects of fire evaluation strategies to be utilized for research and development. The book also gives a broad description of fire analysis related to different standards and regulations for different applications in different geographic zones.

Includes the background, fundamental, and modern features of techniques of characterization of fire and flame behavior
Provides an overview of the major techniques used in fire analysis of flame-retardant polymers
Characterizes different types of materials at small, bench, and real-life scale
Offers a comprehensive overview of fire behavior and testing and associated toxicity issues
Integrates the scientific, technical, standard, regulation, and industrial aspects of fire analysis into a book for future developments in the field

Mer om författaren

Prof. Henri Vahabi received his Ph.D. in Materials Science from the University of Montpellier, France, in 2011. He is currently a Full Professor at the University of Lorraine, France. His research is focused on thermal degradation, flame retardancy of thermosets and thermoplastics, and the development of innovative flame-retardant systems. Prof. Vahabi has authored over 170 articles in ISI-indexed journals and has edited four books. Furthermore, he serves as a committee member of the "Fire Group" within the Chemical Society of France and holds the position of Associate Editor for the Polymers from Renewable Resources journal.Mohammad Reza Saeb is University Professor at the Department of Polymer Technology, Faculty of Chemistry, Gdansk University of Technology. He conceptualizes processing-microstructure-properties-performance interrelationships in polymer blends and nanocomposites. He also visualizes network formation-network degradation correlation in polymer systems by analyzing cure kinetics, thermal degradation kinetics, and flame retardancy. Giulio Malucelli is Professor at the Department of Applied Science and Technology of Politecnico di Torino, Italy. Hisresearch interests include the investigation of structure-property relationships, the fire behavior of textiles modified bysurface-engineered systems, and the design and exploitation of bio-sourced products as effective flame retardants.
