Thermal decomposition and combustion behavior of kevlar fiber reinforced polyester resin composites containing fire retardant additives

In this research, a number of studies had been conducted on the thermal decomposition and fire behavior of kevlar fiber reinforced polymer composites (CP-KUFR). Unsaturated polyester (UPE) was mixed with fire retardant additives including antimony trioxide (Sb2O3), aluminum hydroxide Al(OH)3, chlorinated paraffin (CPs).
