Review on the Research methods of the Barrier and Explosion-proof Properties of porous Materials

Barrier and explosion proof material can quickly transfer heat and block flame propagation, consequently prevent explosion accident. It is the essential safety technology to solve the problem of explosion or "secondary explosion" during the storage and transportation of flammable and explosive dangerous chemicals in liquid or gaseous state. Since the 1960s, the research at home and abroad on the barrier and explosion proof technology has been carried out mainly for the storage and transportation safety of fuel oil. It has been widely used in automobile fuel tank, fuel carrier, gas station, oil pipeline and aircraft fuel tank. In this paper, the research methods of barrier and explosion protection are reviewed, and the development of this technology in the future is prospected.
