It is shown, that the change of phase structure, chemical composition of metallophosphatic fire retardants and products of their heat treatment at 200 – 500 оС leads to the increase of heat-insulating abilities due to the formation of intumescent coverings and isolating melts. The compositions show optimum fireproof properties if they form on the surface of wood intumescent structures and thin melts, which do not block the liberation of volatile nitrogenated inhibitors of burning in a gas phase. The quantitative yield of volatile inhibitors of burning to a flaming zone is determined by features of processes of transformation of fire-retardant systems in a pre-ignition zone of the condensed phase.

Carbonisation of biomass-derived chars and the thermal reduction of a graphene oxide sample studied...

January 2014 · Carbon

Chars and carbonised chars were produced from three different oxygen-rich precursors (Pinus radiata wood, Phormium tenax leaf fibres, and sucrose crystals). These non-graphitisable carbons were analysed with Raman spectroscopy in order to study the nanostructural development which occurs with increasingly severe heat treatments up to approximately 1000 °C. The thermal reduction of a graphene ... [Show full abstract] oxide sample was similarly studied, as this is considered to involve the development of nanometre-scale graphene-like domains within a different oxygen-rich precursor. Increasing the heat treatment temperatures used in the charring and carbonisation processes, led to significant changes in a number of parameters measured in the Raman spectra. Correlations based on these parameter changes could have future applications in evaluating various char samples and estimating the heat treatment temperatures employed during their manufacture. After production heat treatment temperatures exceeded 700 °C, the Raman spectra of the carbonised chars appeared to be largely precursor independent. The spectra of these carbonised chars were similar to the spectra obtained from thermally-reduced graphene oxides, especially when compared to a wide range of other carbonaceous materials analysed using this particular methodology. Partial reduction of a graphene oxide sample due to reasonably mild laser exposures during Raman analysis was also observed.

Fire Performance of Intermodal Shipping Containers

October 1977

Randall Eberly

During the week of 19 July 1976, a full-scale fire test series was performed at the U.S. Coast Guard Fire and Safety Test Detachment to examine the potential Fire hazards of intermodal shipping containers. The three-part test series was conducted on Little Sand Island in Mobile Bay, Alabama. The first sequence of tests were planned to evaluate whether a fire originating within a sealed intermodal ... [Show full abstract] container could burn through the container shell. The second task of the test series was to determine the effects of an exterior pool fire exposure on a single level of containers, and the final task was to evaluate the effects of an exterior pool fire exposure on a stack of containers. Standard 8 foot by 8 foot by 20 foot steel, aluminum and fiberglass-reinforced plywood shipping containers were tested. The interior fire tests utilized two 30-pound wood cribs constructed of white fir and 2 gallons of naptha as a fuel source. For the exterior fire tests, a 29 x 24 foot steel test pan containing JP-5 was constructed beneath the container stack. Standard container stacking and lashing arrangements were used for all tests.

Effect of fire whirlwind formation on solid fuel burning rates

February 1976 · Fire Technology

Burning rates of Douglas fir wood were measured using crosspiled sticks 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 1 in. (0.64, 1.27, 1.90, and 2.54 cm) in cross-sectional dimensions. Burning was 1.4 to 4.2 times as fast with the whirlwind as without.

Experimental Study of Fire Behavior in a Full-Scale Building Compartment with Different Spandrel-Cur...

January 2006 · Journal of Applied Fire Science

A series of full-scale experimental fire tests were conducted to study exposure fire issuing from a window opening of external wall. The fire load comprised wood, cribs giving a total fire load density of 50 kg/m 2. All the 12 burning tests were made in the same compartment under a window opening condition with varying spandrel-curtain length and window opening width. The experiments were ... [Show full abstract] conducted in a two-story reinforced concrete building and the burning behaviours of the test models were analyzed by measuring the temperature and the issuing flame height. The applicability of existing mathematical models for the issuing flame height from window opening is discussed in comparison with the collected experimental data. The experimental results indicate that use of spandrel-curtain could effectively reduce the height of flame issuing from window opening.
