• A RGO/NiAl-LDH hybrid was synthesized by a simple co-precipitation route.
• The hybrid showed visible reduction in the PHRR, SPR and COPR of PMMA.
• The combined effect of RGO/NiAl-LDH contributed to the reduced flammability.
• This work permits to open a door for potent graphene hybrid in the domains of risk.
A reduced graphene oxide/NiAl-layered double hydroxide (RGO-LDH) was synthesized through a simple co-precipitation route. NiAl-layered double hydroxide (NiAl-LDH) nanoparticles were homogeneously dispersed on the reduced graphene oxide (RGO) nanosheets, which were simultaneously reduced during the process. RGO-LDH exhibited three steps of weight loss, leaving high residue. RGO-LDH was then solution blended into poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) to investigate its effect on reducing flammability of the composite. With the incorporation of RGO-LDH, the thermal stability of PMMA composite was improved. Moreover, RGO-LDH endowed PMMA with the largest reduction in the heat release rate, smoke production and CO production rate relative to RGO or NiAl-LDH alone. RGO-LDH could decrease the production of volatiles including hydrocarbons, carbonyl compounds and epoxy compounds from the PMMA composite. The improved flame retardancy was ascribed to the combined effect of the physical barrier of RGO and the catalytic carbonization of NiAl-LDH.
