Two-step, single-cycle coating of montmorillonite/PEG/PEI on cellulosic polysaccharide fabrics: Enhanced flame retardancy and thermal stability.

Cotton fabrics composed of cellulosic polysaccharides are highly flammable, creating a need for effective flame-retardant treatments. Conventional layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly can improve fire resistance but requires repeated deposition and rinsing steps, resulting in high water and energy consumption. In this study,...
