A series of two-component acidic ion intercalated layered double hydroxides (MgAlZn-X1/X2-LDHs) were synthesized by coprecipitation under microwave crystallization, and were further used as novel nanoflame-retardants for ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA).

Polypropylene (PP) and ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) were treated with intumescent flame retardants containing caged bicyclic phosphates. The behavior of thermal degradation of the flame-retarded PP and EVA were studied by TG, DSC, and the FTIR spectra of PP’s residues at different temperature were recorded. In addition, the possible thermal degradation and char formation mechanisms were analyzed and discussed.
