Abstract
Zinc hydroxystannate (ZnSn(oh)6 , ZHS) nanocubes have been obtained for the first time through a simple method by hydrolyzation of Tin (Ⅳ) chloride (SnCl4.5H2O ) reacting with zinc chloride (ZnCl2) in aqueous alkali at the presence of solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH ). The X-ray diffraction data show that the phase obtained has a cubic-type structure. The Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM) images testify that the product grows into cubic poly-crystals having a mean edge length of 380nm, with a standard deviation 20 nm.. Fire retardant (FR) properties of rigid polyvinyl-chloride (PVC) using the prepared ZHS and traditional antimony trioxide (Sb2O3) as fire retardant and smoke suppressant are evaluated by Cone Calorimeter.
