Analyzing the transformation-degree dependence of the effective activation energy, we have studied the thermolysis gross kinetics of polypropylene ( PP ) -based fire-resisting composition and a synergetic mixture of fire-retardant additives: antimony oxide and hexabrominecyclododecane (HBCD). The ad

This study demonstrates the shielding effects of a silica-ash layer on the combustion of silicones and their possible applications on the fire retardancy of organic materials. The deposited silica-ash layer, formed on the surface of silicone materials during combustion, has shielding effects on the
## Abstract This study investigates the simultaneous use of conventional fireβretardant additives and an insulative intumescent thermal barrier/mat to improve the fire performance and mechanical property retention of glassβfibreβreinforced polyester (GRP) composites. Significant reductions in the p
The oxygen index (OI) of poly(butylene terephthalate) (PBT) tends to decrease when it is combined with milled-glass fibres either with or without the sizing treatment. This shows that the previously found apparent increase of flammability of PBT glass fibre composites (GFPBT) as compared to PBT is n
