Sequential Reduction of Chromite Pellets Using Hydrogen and Silicon Carbide for Carbon Emission Abatement During Ferrochrome Production

steel research international, EarlyView.
H2 prereduction selectively metallizes Fe in UG2 chromite pellets at 1100°C, while silicon carbide becomes active at 1300°C to convert remaining Cr2O3 to carbides and promote Cr metallization. By separating the roles of H2 and SiC, the sequential route reaches up to 65.7% Cr metallization and suppresses in‐furnace CO generation by ≈75% versus ...

Fire Testing and Hazard Assessment for Flame Retardant Polymer Composites

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Flame retardant polymer composites are now being evaluated with more than pass or fail flammability tests. Heat release, smoke, toxicity, and system‐level behavior are receiving more attention, and multi‐scale methods are being used to describe fire hazard under more realistic conditions.

In Situ Construction of Phosphorus‐Containing Crosslinked Urethane Network Combined With Ammonium Polyphosphate via Reactive Blending for Enhancing Flame Retardancy and Anti‐Dripping Performance of Polylactic Acid Composites

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
By in situ reaction blending, DOPO‐HQ and THEIC were added to PLA with MDI to construct a phosphorus containing polyurethane network, which significantly improved the flame retardant and anti‐dripping properties of polylactic acid composites. ABSTRACT Polylactic acid (PLA) is highly flammable and prone to severe melt dripping during combustion, which ...

Monitoring of historical structural materials with computed tomography

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Computed tomography (CT) is an excellent tool to solve certain engineering problems connected to material science (such as sulfate swelling, internal degradation due to freezing, and alkali silicate swelling) and to understand specific processes (frost peeling, acid action).

Influence of natural fibers on physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined the influence of natural fibers on the physical, mechanical, and fire‐resistant properties of microconcrete, in comparison with conventional polypropylene fibers used in cement composites. The fibers were characterized by FTIR and TGA/DSC to assess their composition and thermal stability, and FTIR was also performed after ...

Chemical Recycling as a Tool for Enabling a Second Life for Polyesters

SusMat, EarlyView.
This review presents the elucidation of the life cycle of main polyesters, detailing end‐of‐life methods, with focus of solvolysis technologies, then an analysis of LCA and TEA on literature data, an original data analytic, and, finally, a current industrial mapping of the main processes with a critical perspective on the plastic life‐cycle ecosystem ...
