IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishA new and ecofriendly chemical approach uses inexpensive waterglass solutions in order to promote the formation of a silica-based coating on hemp fabrics; this green coating is able to act as a thermal shield and to protect the latter from heat sources. Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (ATR_FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) confirm the formation of –C–O–Si– covalent bonds between the coating and the cellulosic substrate. The waterglass treatment improves the fire behavior of hemp fabric/epoxy composites, also in combination with ammonium polyphosphate, and favors a remarkable decrease of the heat release rate, total heat release, total smoke release and specific extinction area (respectively by 83%, 35%, 45% and 44%) as compared to untreated hemp/epoxy composites, favoring the formation of a very stable char, as also assessed by Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA).

| Abstract: | A new and ecofriendly chemical approach uses inexpensive waterglass solutions in order to promote... the formation of a silica-based coating on hemp fabrics; this green coating is able to act as a thermal shield and to protect the latter from heat sources. Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (ATR_FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) confirm the formation of –C–O–Si– covalent bonds between the coating and the cellulosic substrate. The waterglass treatment improves the fire behavior of hemp fabric/epoxy composites, also in combination with ammonium polyphosphate, and favors a remarkable decrease of the heat release rate, total heat release, total smoke release and specific extinction area (respectively by 83%, 35%, 45% and 44%) as compared to untreated hemp/epoxy composites, favoring the formation of a very stable char, as also assessed by Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). |
