Dodecyl sulfate (DS), one kind of sulfate anion, was intercalated in the interlayer space between CoAl layered double hydroxide (CoAl-LDH) layers, and then polyurethane (PU) based nanocomposites were prepared by in situ intercalation polymerization with different amounts of the organo-modified CoAl-LDH. An exfoliated dispersion of CoAl-LDH layers in PU matrix was verified by the disappearance of the (0 0 3) reflection of the XRD results when the LDH loading was less than 2.0 wt%. Tensile testing indicated that excellent mechanical properties of PU/LDH nanocomposites were achieved. The weak alkaline catalysis of DS to polyurethane chains, combined with the dehydration and structural degradation of the LDH below 300 °C, accounted for the process of proceeded degradation as shown in TGA results. The real-time FTIR revealed that the as-prepared nanocomposites had a slower thermo-oxidative rate than neat PU from 160 °C to 340 °C, probably due to the barrier effect of LDH layers. These results suggested potential applications of CoAl-LDH as a promising flame retardant in PUs.
