Description

This book provides an overview of the latest scientific developments and technological advances in two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials for fire-safe polymers. It summarizes the preparation methods for diverse types of 2D nanomaterials and their polymer composites and reviews their flame-retardant properties, toxic gas and smoke emission during combustion, and inhibition strategies. Covers fundamental aspects like influence of size and dispersion of 2D nanomaterials to help readers develop efficient, multi-functional, and ecofriendly fire-safe polymer composites for a wide range of applications Discusses new-emerging 2D nanomaterials for fire-safe polymer applications, including MXenes, graphitic carbon nitride, boron nitride, and black phosphorus Introduces basic modes of flame retardant action of 2D nanomaterials, including smoke and toxic gas suppression, and the role of 2D nanomaterials in promoting char formation This book is suitable for both scholars and engineers in the fields of polymer science and engineering. It is also aimed at graduate students in chemistry, materials, and safety science and engineering.

Author Biography:

Yuan Hu, PhD, is the Director of the Institute of Fire-Safe Materials, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). He earned a PhD at USTC in 1997. Prof. Hu has performed research on fire-safe materials for more than 30 years. His main research areas include polymer/inorganic compound nanocomposites, new flame retardants and their flame-retardant polymers, synthesis and properties of inorganic nanomaterials, combustion and decomposition mechanism of polymers. Prof. Hu has published more than 600 SCI papers (citations 30,000, H index = 98) in research areas covering the range of fire safety of polymer materials and has obtained over 70 invention patents. He was also awarded the Second Prize of the National Natural Science Award by the Chinese Government (2017). Xin Wang, PhD, is an Associate Professor at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). He earned a PhD in safety science and engineering at USTC in 2013. His research interests focus on the synthesis and application of bio-based flame retardants and the preparation of layered nanomaterials and their use in fire-safe polymer composites. He has authored or co-authored more than 180 SCI-indexed papers in peer-reviewed international journals, 6 book chapters, and 2 monographs in this field. He was also awarded the Second Prize of the National Natural Science Award by the Chinese Government (2017).
