Fire retardancy behavior of polymer/clay nanocomposites

Polymer/clay nanocomposites show significant reduction in peak heat release rates (up to ~70 %) during combustion, which is instrumental in restricting the flame spread and subsequent fire growth. This makes clay a potential eco-benign flame retardant for polymers. However, majority of polymer/clay...
