In this work, the effect of the vermiculite (VMT) clay loading on the rheological properties and flammability of bio-based high-density polyethylene/organically modified VMT (BioHDPE/OVMT) clay biocomposites containing 0.5–10 phr of OVMT clay was investigated. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the BioHDPE was intercalated between the OVMT clay galleries. BioHDPE/OVMT biocomposites containing 5 and 10 phr of OVMT clay exhibited a shear-thinning behavior and a better dispersion/distribution in the BioHDPE matrix. The biocomposite containing 10 phr of organoclay presented a percolated network structure. The elastic modulus increased with the increase in the OVMT loading whereas the tensile and impact strength remained almost unaffected. For the biocomposites containing the unmodified VMT clay, the burning rate decreased with the increase in the VMT loading. The opposite was observed for the biocomposites containing OVMT clay.
