Abstract
This paper examines the current state of research into sustainable flame retardants with the work on nanocomposites highlighted. The motivations to move away from halogen-based flame retardants are discussed and a number of life-cycle-assessments are mentioned which set the stage for a similar LCA study of nanocomposite flame retardant products. Additives, such as hydrotalcite and cellulose nanofibrils, are proposed as components of potential future sustainable flame retardant nanocomposites.Proceedings Title
