Effect of rare Earth ions on the properties of composites composed of ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer and layered double hydroxides.

BACKGROUND: The study on the rare earth (RE)-doped layered double hydroxides (LDHs) has received considerable attention due to their potential applications in catalysts. However, the use of RE-doped LDHs as polymer halogen-free flame retardants was seldom investigated. Furthermore, the effect of rar...
