The flame retardant mechanism of polyolefins modified with chalk and silicone elastomer
TL;DR: In this paper, the flame retardant effect of each individual component: ethylene-acrylate copolymer, chalk and silicone elastomer, as well as the formation of an intumescent structure during heating were investigated by cone calorimetry and oxygen index tests.

Comparing emissions of polyaromatic hydrocarbons and metals from marine fuels and scrubbers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated both the marine and the atmospheric perspective when comparing environmental loads and impact of contaminants from shipping and found that heavy fuel oils (HFOs) generated higher emission factors of both metals and polyaromatic hydrocarbons compared to MGO.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors estimate the load of metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from shipping and leisure boating, relative other sources, to the Baltic Sea and identify possible measures that could lead to major reductions in the loads of hazardous substances.

Linking the flame-retardant mechanisms of an ethylene-acrylate copolymer, chalk and silicone elastomer system with its intumescent behaviour
TL;DR: In this paper, the flame-retardant mechanisms of a flame retardant system consisting of an ethylene-acrylate copolymer, chalk and silicone elastomer are linked to its foaming process and to its formation of a final intumescent structure.

Distribution of calcium carbonate and silicone elastomer in a flame retardant system based on ethylene–acrylate copolymer, chalk and silicone elastomer and its effect on flame retardant properties
TL;DR: In this article, a combination of microscopy studies (SEM, ESEM/EDX, and TEM-EDX) is proven to be useful in locating chalk particles and silicone elastomer in a flame retardant system.
