Flame retardant polymeric nanocomposites have received extensive attention over last
decades because of their exceptional flame retardancy and mechanical robustness. Despite …

Polypropylene (PP), one of five general-purpose plastics, is widely used in many fields.
However, the intrinsic alkane structure of PP makes it relatively easy to burn, leading to …

Functionalized layered double hydroxides (LDHs) based on a multi-modifier system
composed of hydroxypropyl-sulfobutyl-beta-cyclodextrin sodium (sCD) …

Huge consumption of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) results in two serious challenges for
our society: fire hazards and environment pollution. To address these challenges, on the …

In this work, a novel single macromolecular intumescent flame retardant (DT-M) was
prepared by self-assembly of diethylenetriamine penta-(methylenephosphonic) acid with …

Owing to the biological compatibility and mechanical properties of polylactic acid (PLA), it
presents an extensive application area (such as packaging, film, and fiber). However, the …

As a plastic that can be prepared from biomass resources, polylactic acid (PLA) has the
characteristics of being degradable and renewable, and has shown great potential in …

Poly (lactic) acid (PLA) is one of the most promising biobased materials, but its inherent
flammability limits its applications. A novel flame retardant hexa-(DOPO …

A polyoxometalate‐based ionic liquid‐doped sepiolite (SEP‐PIL) was prepared by
electrostatically immobilizing phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) on natural sepiolite embedded …

In this work, an efficient approach to improving the fire retardancy and smoke suppression
for intumescent flame‐retardant polypropylene (PP) composites is developed via …
