Comparative performance of carbon nanotubes and nanoclays as flame retardants for epoxy composites

The pyrolysis characteristics of a nanoparticle-reinforced epoxy matrix composite were investigated to gain a better understanding of the basic mechanisms for flame retardancy. A two-dimensional transient-state model was developed to provide a better understanding of the pyrolysis process of the com...
