Abstract

AbstractThe flammability characterization and synergistic flame retardant effect of cerium oxide (CeO2) in the ethylene‐vinyl acetate/aluminum hydroxide blends were studied using limiting oxygen index (LOI), UL‐94 test, and cone calorimeter test (CCT). The results showed that the addition of a given amount of CeO2 apparently increased the LOI value and UL‐94 rating. The data obtained from the CCT indicated that the addition of CeO2 greatly decreased the heat release rate and prolonged the combustion time. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010
