Abstract
Lignocellulose offers significant promise as a renewable and environmentally sustainable material for construction, while its inherent combustibility poses a major challenge to its widespread application, especially in fire-sensitive environments. In this review, the combustion behavior of lignocellulose and the key mechanisms underlying its flame-retardant strategies are examined. Various classes of flame retardants (FRs), categorized based on the functional elements, are discussed in terms of their flame-retardant mechanisms and interactions with lignocellulosic substrates. Emerging approaches that integrate FRs are explored and compared, with a focus on enhancing flame resistance while minimizing their adverse effects on material properties. Finally, the review concludes with an outlook on current challenges and future research directions, shedding the light to develop more effective, durable, and sustainable flame-retardant solutions for lignocellulose-based materials.
期刊介绍:
Progress in Materials Science is a journal that publishes authoritative and critical reviews of recent advances in the science of materials. The focus of the journal is on the fundamental aspects of materials science, particularly those concerning microstructure and nanostructure and their relationship to properties. Emphasis is also placed on the thermodynamics, kinetics, mechanisms, and modeling of processes within materials, as well as the understanding of material properties in engineering and other applications.
The journal welcomes reviews from authors who are active leaders in the field of materials science and have a strong scientific track record. Materials of interest include metallic, ceramic, polymeric, biological, medical, and composite materials in all forms.
Manuscripts submitted to Progress in Materials Science are generally longer than those found in other research journals. While the focus is on invited reviews, interested authors may submit a proposal for consideration. Non-invited manuscripts are required to be preceded by the submission of a proposal. Authors publishing in Progress in Materials Science have the option to publish their research via subscription or open access. Open access publication requires the author or research funder to meet a publication fee (APC).
Abstracting and indexing services for Progress in Materials Science include Current Contents, Science Citation Index Expanded, Materials Science Citation Index, Chemical Abstracts, Engineering Index, INSPEC, and Scopus.
