Flame retardant effects of magnesium hydroxide

TL;DR: Magnesium hydroxide has all the characteristics required for use as a flame retardant filler and can be made synthetically with high purity and in a range of useful morphologies, responds well to surface modifiers and decomposes endothermically with release of water at temperatures close to those of polymer degradation and high enough to allow incorporation into most polymer types as mentioned in this paper.
