Book Title: Flame retardant polymer nanocomposites

Author: Alexander B. Morgan, and Charles A. Wilkie

Selection Statement:

This book outlines some of the most recent advances in the flame retardancy (FR) of polymer/inorganic nanocomposites, a field that has been central to my group's research over the past decade. I wrote one of the chapters in this book, summarizing the fundamentals and design principles of FR nanocomposites. In addition, this book was co-edited by a long-time collaborator (Chuck Wilkie), and includes multiple chapters by other scientific collaborators, frequently emphasizing aspects from our recent research.
