NIST Technical Note 1674: Fabrication, Characterization and Flammability Testing of Carbon Nanofiber Layer-By-Layer Coated Polyurethane Foam

This is the first reported use of Layer-by-Layer (LBL) assembly to fabricate thin film coatings on polyurethane foam, of incorporating carbon nanofibers (CNF) into LBL fabricated coatings, and of using LBL fabricated coatings to reduce the flammability of polyurethane foam.
