EPDM materials were characterized by standardized tests measuring their behavior against fire and important improvements were observed, especially in terms of smoke production (25% reduction of the smoke production compared with the formulation using SEP) presenting a remarkable behaviour against dripping and self-extinction when a flame is directly applied.<br \/>\nThe mechanism of ceramization under fire conditions was discussed. It was found that EPDM system with SEPTB additive transformed into a rigid ceramic after treating at 1000 \u25e6C. In this particular case, the ceramization was more efficient due to the sepiolite transfor\ufffemation to enstatite at lower temperatures (\u223c750 vs \u223c850 \u25e6C) combined with the \u201cin situ\u201d formation of a glassy phase which notably enhances the reinforcement of the char layer by forming a reinforcing 3D enstatite fibers net structure that reduces smoke production and even totally avoids the dripping of melted polymer by the action of the heat in a fire event.\u00a0This work provides new insights for the preparation of high-performance synergist additive based on sepiolite for the enhancement of fire retardance of EPDM system for cable applications.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-466\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/mscg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/68\/2025\/06\/portada.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"734\" height=\"555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/mscg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/68\/2025\/06\/portada.png 734w, https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/mscg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/68\/2025\/06\/portada-300x227.png 300w, https:\/\/wp.icmm.csic.es\/mscg\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/68\/2025\/06\/portada-150x113.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 734px) 100vw, 734px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new manuscript has been published and has been granted a cover page: \u00abSynergistically ceramization of rubber system for fire safety cable by sepiolite functionalized with boron-based nanoparticles\u00bb. by M.L.
