These composites were fabricated by the twin-screw extruder and hot-press techniques. The microstructural characteristics and flame-retardancy of the PA 12-based composite samples were obtained by using a scanning electron microscope, a vertical UL-94 burning, and limiting oxygen index tests. The Shore-D hardness, Charpy impact, and tensile tests were conducted to reveal the mechanical performance of composites. The PA 12/antimony trioxide/sepiolite sample presented the best mechanical performance. The additions of antimony trioxide/boron into the PA 12 matrix gave the best contribution to the flame-retardancy.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMalzeme BilimleriTekstilMalzeme BilimleriÖzellik ve TestMalzeme BilimleriKâğıt ve AhşapMalzeme BilimleriKaplamalar ve FilmlerMühendislikKimyaMalzeme BilimleriBiyomalzemelerMalzeme BilimleriSeramikMalzeme BilimleriKompozitlerArticle35410831090406895
