“…Altering the matrix's fire-retardant additive ratio is one way to circumvent these issues [5]. In the past, researchers have tried using a variety of fillers to achieve the best possible flame resistance and thermal properties, such as aluminium trihydrate (ATH), aluminium hypophosphites, melamine polyphosphate (MPP), and melamine zeolite [6,7]. Conventional flame-retardant additives based on halogens are harmful to both humans and the environment due to the smoke they produce.…”

The automotive industry has benefited greatly from the advancements in fireproof, high-strength fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites during the last several decades. S-Glass/Phenolic hybrid composites made by hydraulic compression molding are the subject of this investigation into the effects of Melamine Polyphosphate (MPP) on their thermal and fire performance. In addition to studying the morphology of the samples, researchers analyzed the thermal and fire performances of hybrid laminates made with neat laminates and varying compositions of MPP (ranging from 3% to 15% by weight). Tests included UL 94, limiting oxygen index (LOI), and the impacts of accelerated heat ageing on the behavior of the hybrid specimens. The results demonstrated that specimens filled with higher MPP performed better in a fire compared to neat samples. According to the results in UL 94 horizontal burning test and vertical burning test, specimens filled with 12 and 15 wt. % MPP demonstrated a reduced flame spreading rate and fulfilled the V-0 criteria. Simultaneously, the energy absorption capacity of hybrid configurations is severely limited by heat ageing, due to its temperature and duration dependent. The research proved that the suggested S-Glass / Phenolic / Melamine Polyphosphate hybrid composites were suitable for creating environmentally friendly electric vehicle battery housings and fire-resistant automotive parts.

“…It demonstrates that the higher the alkaline, the faster the polymerization and the shorter the initial time. As the alkaline concentration rises, geo-polymer concrete's compressive strengths will rise [20]. Additionally, different sodium silicate and sodium hydroxide mix ratios and curing techniques affect compressive strengths [19].…”

The construction industries are looking towards the production of environmentally friendly concrete, with the use of fewer natural resources, less energy, and minimum carbon dioxide emissions. For this reason, the geo-polymer concrete is one of the best options. The concrete produced with a polymerization process; a reaction between alkaline compounds containing alumina and silica; is called geo-polymer-based concrete. This study is focused on investigating the density and strength properties of geo-polymer concrete with Recycled Coarse Aggregates (RCA). Three mixes were designed with 0%, 50%, and 100% RCA with a fixed water-binder ratio equal to 0.4. The results revealed that the compressive, tensile, and flexural strength of geo-polymer-based concrete with RCA reduced and depended on the percentage of RCA used. The flexural performance of the concrete was observed better compared to compressive and tensile strength. However, the density of concrete is decreased by approximately 14% with the addition of RCA resulting in lighter concrete than the control mix.
