A review is presented of the recent developments concerning the use of layered silicates
(clay) for designing polymer nanocomposites endowed with enhanced flame retardancy …

Owing to their high versatility from chemical and processing perspectives and hence their
capability of being tailored for required properties, epoxy resins are used in a wide range of …

In this Feature Article, we discuss recent developments of flame retardant polymers. Three
approaches are considered:(i) inherently flame retardant polymers,(ii) chemically modified …

Abstract A novel P/N/S-containing flame retardant DHBAZ was synthesized with 9, 10-
Dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and 2 …

Biobased epoxy nanocomposites were synthesized based on 2-methoxy-4-propylphenol
(dihydroeugenol, DHE), a molecule that has been obtained from the lignin component of …

A novel phosphorus-containing oligomeric flame retardant, poly (DOPO substituted
hydroxyphenyl methanol pentaerythritol diphosphonate)(PDPDP) was synthesized and …

Nanocomposites represent a new family of materials that are attracting great attention by
chemists and materials scientists. The properties of nanostructured materials are determined …

The flame retardant effect of newly synthesized phosphorus-containing reactive amine,
which can be used both as crosslinking agent in epoxy resins and as a flame retardant, was …

Abstract Poly (vinyl alcohol)(PVA) nanocomposites with pristine sepiolite and heat‐treated
(HT) sepiolites were prepared by the method of solution dispersion. The measurements of …

A series of flame-retardant epoxy resins containing boron and silicon were obtained through
a crosslinking reaction, using tris (2-hydroxypropyl) borate (THPB) together with …
