physical adsorption–desorption. Their properties as a thermal
stabilizer for poly(vinyl chloride) were tested using a torque rheometer
and static thermal aging method. Compared with traditional hydrocalumite,
the crystal size of the BD–hydrocalumite composite was relatively
small, which made it exhibit good dispersion and better thermal stability
for poly(vinyl chloride). In addition, the effects of preparation
conditions on the properties of BD–hydrocalumite as a heat
stabilizer were also investigated. Under the conditions of

chloride) reached 2149 s.
