An exfoliated montmorillonite (E-MMT) was prepared by introducing Ni 2+ and melamine formaldehyde into layers of MMT. The E-MMT was applied to regulate the flame retardant properties of polypropylene (PP)/intumescent flame retardant (IFR) composites. The IFR used consists of ammonium polyphosphate (APP) and a charring…
