A quantitative method to compare the effect of thermal aging on the mechanical performance of fire protective fabrics
Download2018-09-04
Dolez, Patricia I., Namrata, Tomer S., Malayati, Yassine
A method has been proposed to provide a means to compare in a quantitative and comprehensive way the mechanical performance of fire protective fabrics under long‐term thermal exposure. These high‐performance materials experience a reduction in their performance overtime due to the various...

Hoque, Md. Saiful, Dolez, Patricia I.
Firefighters, workers in the oil and gas industry, electricians, and military personnel, for example, wear protective clothing made of fire-resistant fabrics constructed from high-performance fibers (1). For firefighters’ protective clothing, the outer shell is generally a blend of different...

Dolez, Patricia I., Chung, H.-J, Batcheller, J., Cho, C., Yehia, D., Zheng, L., Braun, C.A., Khalkhali, R., Lin, Z., Chhetry, A., Saha, A., Hoque, Md. Saiful, Khemir, M., Samaraweera, N.
The protective clothing industry and workers at risk of exposure to heat and flame can rely on some high performance materials developed over the last fifty years to provide the protection needed while allowing some level of comfort. This includes a series of inherently thermal- and...

Electrical conduction of reduced graphene oxide coated meta-aramid textile and its evolution under aging conditions
Download2019-08-21
Cho, Chungyeon, Elias, Anastasia L., Batcheller, Jane, Dolez, Patricia, Chung, Hyun-Joong
High-performance textiles – such as those used in protective clothing – age silently, undergoing a gradual reduction in their protective properties. We propose that an electrically conducting layer that loses its conductivity systematically under aging conditions can be used as an...

Sun, Xiaoruo, Asad, Asad, Ali, Mehnab, Morita, Luka, Dolez, Patricia I., Hogan, James D., Sameoto, Dan
This study demonstrates a multi-spectrum camouflage control via microfluidic methods within a thermally and visibly semi-transparent polymer (polyethylene). Microfluidic devices have a high potential for achieving multiband camouflage including both visible and infrared (IR) spectrums because...
