Abstract
Cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) was modified with dimethyldioctadecylammonium chloride (Cloisite 20A surfactant) then assembled with montmorillonite (MMT) to obtain CB[6]/Cloisite 20A-MMT. Both CB[6] and the MMT-modified CB[6] were evaluated as potential fire retardants in polystyrene, poly(methyl methacrylate) and polyurea. The morphologies of the composites were evaluated using X-ray diffraction; thermogravimetric analysis and cone calorimetry were used to study thermal stability and fire performance of the composites.
