Aggregate’s influence on thermophysical concrete properties at elevated temperature

The thermal and physical properties of concrete were investigated at high temperature to determine how these properties might change in the event of a fire. The influence of the type and content of aggregate was also investigated. It was found that the degradation and mass ...

Thermal degradation and fire performance of intumescent silicone-based coatings

Intumescent paints protect steel structures from fires by creating insulative foams when heated above a critical temperature. This paper examines the fire resistance capabilities of phenyl silicone coatings in comparison to intumescent paints. A thermal constant analyzer measured the thermal conductivity of the silicone-based coatings ...

Investigation of the synergy in intumescent polyurethane by 3D computed tomography

In order to investigate the morphology of intumescent polyurethane (PU), X-ray tomography is used. Nano MgO was added to some of the chars as a synergist. The results of the morphology investigations were then correlated with measured thermal conductivities of PU chars over a range ...

Using the TPS method for determining the thermal properties of concrete and wood at elevated temperature

Using the transient plane source (TPS) technique, the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of concrete and wood samples were measured at elevated temperatures. The measured values are compared to established literature values and show good agreement....

Flame retardancy through carbon nanomaterials: carbon black, multiwall nanotubes, expanded graphite, multi-layer graphene and graphene in polypropylene

This research aims to determine the effect of altering filler particle sizes and shapes, on the thermal and mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP). Fillers such as thermally reduced graphite oxide (TRGO), multi-layer graphene (MLG250), carbon black (CB), multiwalled nanotubes (MWNT) and expanded graphite (EG), were ...
