Nitrate intercalated hydrotalcite (NO3?‐HTC) was first prepared as precursor; a schiff base derivative containing N, P, and S was synthesized and its structure was characterized. Later the schiff base derivative was used as intercalation to replace NO3? in hydrotalcite. The final product was schiff base derivative intercalated hydrotalcite, which was named as benzaldehyde–taurine–hypophosphorous (BTP)‐HTC. The results showed both NO3?‐HTC and BTP‐HTC can effectively improve the flame retardant and thermostability of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). In cone calorimeter test, the peak heat release rate of EVA was 1421.2 kW/m2 and reduced sharply to 746.1/584.5 kW/m2 for 20 wt% NO3?‐HTC/BTP‐HTC adding, respectively. At same time, the total heat release was also decreased from 120.6 MJ/m2 for EVA to 81.0/70.0 MJ/m2, respectively. Morphology observation and composition analysis by scanning electron microscopy (SEM)/X‐ray spectroscopy (EDS) documented the residue left after combustion of EVA/NO3?‐HTC was just ash containing Mg and Al; but for EVA/BTP‐HTC, coherent char layer containing Mg, Al, and P was left. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that the thermal degradation of EVA was prolonged by either NO3?‐HTC or BTP‐HTC; and char content was kept to 8.6% and 11.0%, respectively. The whole results documented either NO3?‐HTC or BTP‐HTC improved the combustion behavior and thermostability of EVA, and BTP‐HTC showed excellent effect.
