Deriving the Charring Rate of a Wood Fibre Insulation Board by Exposure to the ISO 834 Standard Fire

open access: yesFire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 135-144, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Wood fibre insulation boards (WFIB) are widely used combustible building materials, commonly applied in energy‐efficient construction for their thermal and hygric performance. The present study investigates the behaviour of the most common type of wood fibre insulation when exposed to the ISO 834 standard fire.

Tau physics at the LHC with ATLAS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The presence of tau leptons in the final state is an important signature in searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. Hadronically decaying tau leptons can be reconstructed over a wide kinematic range at ATLAS.

Thermal Characterisation of Millet to Develop Sustainable Intumescent Passive Fire Protection Systems

open access: yesFire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 204-215, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Intumescent paints, coatings, or sealants are a popular form of passive protection in the fire industry. However, the impact of their toxicity and constituent synthetic chemical ingredients is an important consideration for sustainability. This research experimentally studied an agricultural grain, known as millet, quantifying its unusual ...

Synergistic effects of sepiolite on intumescent flame retardant polypropylene

open access: yeseXPRESS Polymer Letters, 2010
In this paper, the effects of sepiolite as a synergistic agent on the flame retardancy of intumescent flame retardant polypropylene (PP/IFR) were studied using the limiting oxygen index (LOI), the UL-94 test, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), laser Raman

Optimization of the bi-oleothermal treatment process for wood preservation and fireproofing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The bi-oleothermal© process (combination of oil and heat treatment) is a well mastered alternative method for wood protection. However, the fire behavior and resistance to decay of bi-oleothermally treated wood are not good enough to ensure performance ...

Flame Retardant Polyolefins Using Fibers From Leather Waste: Adjusting Extrusion Variables to Balance the Property Profile

open access: yesJournal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, Volume 32, Issue 2, Page 410-430, March 2026.
Adjusting extrusion variables are a key to balance the flame retardancy and mechanical properties of polyolefin/leather waste fiber composites. ABSTRACT The extrusion processing variables represent a key to the optimal use of additives and thus the development of flame‐retardant polymer composites. Adjusting the property profile, for example, finding a
