Finds documents with exactly this word group, in exactly this word order and spelling (e.g. "employer branding").
Finds documents with both search terms (e.g. sales AND bonus).
Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).
Finds documents with the search term in different spellings. "?" allows only one character (e.g. organi?ation).
Special characters are understood as AND (e.g. Miller Bros. & Sons).

Abstract

This chapter delves into the fundamental principles of flammability tests and fire retardant mechanisms specific to biocomposites and bionanocomposites. It covers the methodologies for assessing fire resistance, including cone calorimeter tests, limiting oxygen index (LOI) tests, and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The text also explores the inherent properties of these materials, such as composition, morphology, and thermal stability, which influence their fire behavior. A significant focus is placed on the synergistic effects of fire retardants and their role in enhancing the fire resistance of bio-based materials. Additionally, the chapter highlights current research findings in flammability studies, emphasizing the dynamic nature of this field and the ongoing evolution of fire safety strategies. The application of fire safety measures, including the use of coatings and the design of inherently fire-resistant biocomposites, is also discussed. The chapter concludes by synthesizing the knowledge gained, providing a robust foundation for making informed decisions regarding the application of fire safety measures in sustainable materials.
