AB  - A facile route of 'copolymerization/blending' was proposed to fabricate 
      silicon/nitrogen synergistically reinforced flame-retardant PA6 nanocomposites 
      with simultaneously improved anti-dripping and mechanical properties. Firstly, a 
      persistently inherent flame-retardant PA6 (FR-PA6), with 
      1,3-bis(3-aminopropyl)tetramethyl disiloxane (MSDS), was synthesized via 
      controllable amidation and a polycondensation reaction. Melamine cyanurate (MCA) 
      nanoparticles as a 'gas phase' synergistic agent were then added into FR-PA6 to 
      further improve its flame retardancy. The primarily obtained FR-PA6 could be 
      extinguished after a few melt droplets dropped as ignited, and passed the V-2 
      rating with enhanced mechanical properties, while PA6 had no rating (NR). The 
      prepared FR-PA6/MCA nanocomposites could attain a limiting oxygen index (LOI) 
      value of 32.7%, and passed the V-0 level with only 1 melting droplet with similar 
      mechanical properties to PA6. Accordingly, the special 'condensed-gas phase' 
      synergistic flame-retardant mechanism of FR-PA6/MCA nanocomposites was proposed 
      through studying the residues and pyrolysis volatiles. This work provided a 
      facile route as a model for developing functional PA6 for diverse engineering 
      applications.
