Abstract: Polymer nanocomposites have been widely used in various fields of national production and life due to their excellent properties such as light weight, corrosion resistance, electrical insulation and easy processing. However, most polymer materials are extremely flammable, which seriously limits their practical application in many fields. Therefore, it is of great significance to enhance the flame retardant property of polymer. In recent years, with the increasing awareness of environmental protection and health, the preparation of polymer composites with high strength, high toughness, high oxidation resistance and good flame retardancy by environmentally friendly methods has been attracted more and more researchers at home and abroad. High-efficiency green flame retardants will have great market potential. Nanoclay is a natural, non-toxic, low-cost, biodegradable and biocompatible material, which is often used to synthesize polymer nanocomposites. Due to its high specific surface area, ba-rrier property and thermal stability, it can effectively improve the flame retardancy and mechanical properties of polymer materials. This paper summarizes the related research on the flame retardant and thermal stability of natural clay minerals reinforced polymer nanocomposites in recent years. According to different sources, polymer materials can be divided into natural polymer materials and synthetic polymer materials. The enhancement effect of clay minerals on the flame retardant properties of various polymer nanocomposites is discussed respectively. The flame retardant mechanism of natural clay minerals in polymer nanocomposites is also summarized. Compared with common polymer composites, natural clay minerals in polymer composites can capture flammable volatiles, block the transfer of heat and mass due to its unique structure (fibrous, tubular and layered). In addition, natural clays can form a strong barrier layer on the polymer surface to delay the heat and mass transfer processes. Finally, it points out the current problems existing in the flame retardant research of nanocomposites. The in-depth investigation of the current literature provides useful information for the efficient utilization of polymer/clay nanocomposites and also provides theoretical guidance for the design of new high-performance polymer/clay nanocomposites.
