This book is the first to deal with the important topic of the fire behaviour of fibre reinforced polymer composite materials. The book covers all of the key issues on the behaviour of composites in a fire. Also covered are fire protection materials for composites, fire properties of nanocomposites, fire safety regulations and standards, fire test methods, and health hazards from burning composites.

Fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are used in almost every
type of advanced engineering structure, with their usage ranging
from aircraft, helicopters and spacecraft through to boats, ships
and offshore platforms and to automobiles, sports goods, chemical
processing equipment and civil infrastructure such as bridges and
buildlings. The usage of FRP composites continues to grow at an
impessive rate as these materials are used more in their existing
markets and become established in relatively new markets such as
biomedical devices and civil structures. A key factor driving the
increased applications of composites over the recent years is the
development of new advanced forms of FRP materials. This includes
developments in high performance resin systems and new styles of
reinforcement, such as carbon nanotubes and nanoparticles. This
book provides an up-to-date account of the fabrication, mechanical
properties, delamination resistance, impact tolerance and
applications of 3D FRP composites. The book focuses on 3D
composites made using the textile technologies of weaving,
braiding, knitting and stiching as well as by z-pinning.
