The use of nano-glass in passive fire safety in buildings

الملخص EN

There are many solutions for building materials to act against fire through the use and integration of passive and active technologies inside the building.

nanotechnology (technologies that depend mainly on nanostructured materials) can play an effective role in passive fire safety as the properties of materials can greatly enhance fire resistance quality and fire retardancy; creating more safe environments when exposed to fires.

this paper focuses on exploring nanotechnology-based materials that can considerably improve fire protection and prevention strategies in the building and construction sector.

the paper examines identified use of combining various chemicals with nanotechnology, which focuses on the use of Nano-glass, to support design and safety planning in architectural buildings.

these plans have a great influence on protecting the occupants’ lives and properties during fire situations.

based on the assessment, recommendations are given to further explore and test the advantages of nanotechnology in developing Nano-based finishing materials for the enhancement of life safety in buildings.
