The combination of organophillised montmorillonite (MMT), synthetic hydromagnesite and aluminium hydroxide (ATH) as flame retardant system for polyethylene-based materials was studied and compared with a similar system with magnesium hydroxide, ATH and MMT. The thermal stability and the flame retardant properties were evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential thermal analysis (DTA), limiting oxygen index (LOI) and cone calorimeter tests. The results indicated that the addition of montmorillonite makes it possible to reduce the total filler content to achieve the flame retardant requirements. The thermal stability of filled LDPE/EVA blends increases to a higher extent for the samples containing MMT. In the cone calorimeter tests we observed a reduction of the peak heat release rate for the sample containing montmorillonite in comparison with a sample with higher filler loading without this nanoclay. An increase of the stability of the char formed could be responsible for this favourable behaviour when montmorillonite is added. In addition, mechanical properties significantly improved for the composites containing montmorillonite both for the filler loading reduction and the reinforcement effect of the nanoclay.
