This paper deals with the effect of synthetic and natural flame retardants on flammability characteristics and chemical changes in thermally treated meranti wood (Shorea spp.). The basic chemical composition (extractives, lignin, holocellulose, cellulose, and hemicelluloses) was evaluated to clarify the relationships of temperature modifications (160 °C, 180 °C, and 210 °C) and incineration for 600 s. Weight loss, burning speed, the maximum burning rate, and the time to reach the maximum burning rate were evaluated. Relationships between flammable properties and chemical changes in thermally modified wood were evaluated with the Spearman correlation. The thermal modification did not confirm a positive contribution to the flammability and combustion properties of meranti wood. The effect of the synthetic retardant on all combustion properties was significantly higher compared to that of the natural retardant.

Direct writing is a rapidly developing manufacturing technology that is convenient, adaptable and automated. It has been used in energetic composites to manufacture complex structures, improve product safety, and reduce waste. This work is aimed at probing the formability properties and combustion performances of aluminum/ammonium perchlorate with a high solid content for direct writing fabrication. Four kinds of samples with different solid content were successfully printed by adjusting printing parameters and inks formulas with excellent rheological behavior and combustion properties. A high solid content of 91% was manufactured and facile processed into complex structures. Micromorphology, rheology, density, burning rate, heat of combustion and combustion performance were evaluated to characterized four kinds of samples. As the solid content increases, the density, burning rate and heat of combustion are greatly enhanced. Based on 3D direct writing technology, complex energetic 3D structures with 91% solid content are shaped easier and more flexibly than in traditional manufacturing process, which provides a novel way for the manufacture of complicated structures of energetic components.

The blends of fuel to base liquid fuels for the enhancement of combustion properties has long generated interest since it is linked to improvement in combustion properties in biodiesel fuels. This work investigates the effect of bentonite nanoparticles on the combustion characteristics of palm oil biodiesel. These nanoparticles are added in various compositions on biodiesel which are 0% (B0), 10% (B10), 20% (B20) and 30% (B30). The insulin pen was used to make Sub-millimeter-sized spherical droplets, and the combustion process of droplets was recorded using a camera in atmosphere condition. The fuel was dripped on the tip of the thermocouple junction and ignited using a torch of the butane-air mixture on a cylindrical burner. Properties such as ignition delay, burning rate, and flame temperature of droplets were measured with post-processing of the resulting images. The results showed a decrease in ignition delay and an increase of flame temperature with the increase of bentonite percentage due to bentonite acts as a catalyst capable of accelerating the reaction rate. However, the burning rate decrease with the increasing of bentonite percentage due to the oxygen content of the mixture is getting lower.
