A polyethylene vinyl acetic acid (EVA) nanocomposite comprising of an intumescent agent that incorporates ammonium phosphate monobasic, mono-pentaerythritol, and melamine with a cationic nanoclay was set up through solution blending and melt blending to assess the fire retardancy utilizing a cone calorimeter. The results demonstrated that there was a significant reduction in the peak heat release rate of 70% contrasted with pure EVA. The fire retardancy of the clay-organic intumescent mixture framework composite was more successful than a same amount of additional nanoclay and intumescent agent. To check these outcomes, the residues of cone calorimeter samples were assessed alongside clay d-spacing changes amid utilization.
