Bio-based flame retardant magnesium phytate (Mg-Phyt) was synthesized by a facile chelation reaction and characterized. The feasibility of Mg-Phyt as flame retardant for epoxy resins was studied. In order to enhance its flame retardancy, the synergistic flame retardancy between Mg-Phyt and agricultu...
