Polymers and their processing by engineering production technologies (injection, molding
or additive manufacturing) are increasingly being used. Polymers used in engineering …

The use of additive technologies keeps growing. Increasingly, flammable powder materials
are also used in additive technologies, and there is a risk of explosion or fire when using …

The current research is aimed at investigating the explosion behavior of hazardous
materials in relation to aspects of particulate size. The materials of study are flocculent …

The fire behavior of polymers is examined primarily with the time-dependent heat release
rate (HRR) measured with a cone calorimeter. The HRR is used to examine the fire behavior …

Many of plastic powders handled in industry are combustible and have the hazard of dust
fire and explosion accidents. However poor information about the safe handling has been …

Polypropylene dust explosion poses a significant threat to the safe production of synthetic
resin. To elucidate the flame propagation mechanism of polypropylene dust explosions, the …

To reveal the flame propagation mechanism in polyethylene (PE) dust explosions, the flame
propagation behaviors and temperature characteristics of polyethylene dust clouds were …

In order to investigate the impact of some inorganic additive flame retardants on the selected
fire properties of the materials based on polyester resin Polimal 1033 APy, small-scale fire …

Abstract Polyamide 66 (PA66) is widely used in the polymer market and there is a risk of
dust explosion during processing and manufacturing. In this study, the explosion hazard of …

The fire behavior and the characterization of solid and gaseous fire effluents of polymers
[polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and polyamide-6 (PA-6)] filled with nanoparticles (silica …
