This book provides an overview of the latest scientific developments and technological advances in two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials for fire-safe polymers. It summarizes the preparation methods for diverse types of 2D nanomaterials and their polymer composites and reviews their flame-retardant properties, toxic gas and smoke emission during combustion, and inhibition strategies.
- Covers fundamental aspects like influence of size and dispersion of 2D nanomaterials to help readers develop efficient, multi-functional, and ecofriendly fire-safe polymer composites for a wide range of applications
- Discusses new-emerging 2D nanomaterials for fire-safe polymer applications, including MXenes, graphitic carbon nitride, boron nitride, and black phosphorus
- Introduces basic modes of flame retardant action of 2D nanomaterials, including smoke and toxic gas suppression, and the role of 2D nanomaterials in promoting char formation
This book is suitable for both scholars and engineers in the fields of polymer science and engineering. It is also aimed at graduate students in chemistry, materials, and safety science and engineering.

About the Author
Yuan Hu, PhD, is the Director of the Institute of Fire-Safe Materials, University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). He earned a PhD at USTC in 1997. Prof. Hu has performed research on fire-safe materials for more than 30 years. His main research areas include polymer/inorganic compound nanocomposites, new flame retardants and their flame-retardant polymers, synthesis and properties of inorganic nanomaterials, combustion and decomposition mechanism of polymers. Prof. Hu has published more than 600 SCI papers (citations 30,000, H index = 98) in research areas covering the range of fire safety of polymer materials and has obtained over 70 invention patents. He was also awarded the Second Prize of the National Natural Science Award by the Chinese Government (2017).
Xin Wang, PhD, is an Associate Professor at the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). He earned a PhD in safety science and engineering at USTC in 2013. His research interests focus on the synthesis and application of bio-based flame retardants and the preparation of layered nanomaterials and their use in fire-safe polymer composites. He has authored or co-authored more than 180 SCI-indexed papers in peer-reviewed international journals, 6 book chapters, and 2 monographs in this field. He was also awarded the Second Prize of the National Natural Science Award by the Chinese Government (2017).

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
