The isomers of most observed species in the flame were unambiguously identified by measurements of the photoionization etticiency spectra, e.g. C3H4, C2H4O and C4H4. The mole fraction profiles of species up to C7H8 were measured by scanning the burner position at the selected photon energies near ionization thresholds, and the flame temperature profile was obtained by using Pt/Pt-13%Rh thermocouple. Compared with the previous studies, a lot of new flame species: C3H2, C3H3, C3H5, C2H6O, C4H2, C4H4, C4H6, C3H4O, C3H6O, C3H8O, C5H6, C4H8O and C7H8, were observed. A series of free radicals in the flame are detected to be CH3, C2H3, C2H5, HCO, C3H3 and C3H5. Based on the experimental work, a reduced reaction mechanism was developed including 40 species and 223 reactions. Modeling and measurements agree well for the major species and most intermediates. A detailed kinetic model is desired for this flame.展开更多

The properties of the products were analyzed by laser granularity, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, the limiting oxygen index and the wetting angle measurements. The results show that the mean particle size of the magnesium hydroxide is about 230 nm with a platelet shape and the specific surface area is about 48 m2/g when the temperature is 55 ℃ , and the ammonia and bittern are instilled simultaneously during the reaction process. After the modification, the limiting oxygen index and physical chemistry performance of the magnesium hydroxide were examined. The results show that the contact angle of magnesium hydroxide is 132.5? and the limiting oxygen index is 31.5 %, indicating that the modified magnesium hydroxide is an effective flame retardant and can be applied as flame retardant additives of the macromolecule compounds such as plastic, synthetic rubber and synthetic fibre.展开更多

The alkaline filler was found to replace mineral filler, and the flame- retarded asphalt mixtures were produced. Experimental results show that these asphalt mixtures are smoke restrained ; the performances and construction technology of asphalt pavement are not influenced; also the alkaline filler is of low-price. So this kind of flame-retarded asphalt mixtures is suitable for tunnel patement.展开更多
