In this work, a phosphorous-based compound （DOPO-ICN） was obtained by a two-step process. 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10- phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide （DOPO） reacted with formaldehyde firstly, followed with reacting with 1,6-hexane diisocyanate （HD1）. The chemical structure of DOPO-ICN was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR） and 1H NMR. The influence of DOPO-1CN on the mechanical and flammability properties ofjute/PLA composites was studied. Compared to DOPO, DOPO-ICN improved the tensile, flexural and impact strength of the flame retardant jute/PLA composites. Moreover, the flammability ofjute/PLA composites with different DOPO and DOPO-MA loading was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis （TGA）, UL 94 test and limiting oxygen index （LOI） measurements. The results showed that DOPO-ICN imparted the flame retardancy to the jute/PLA composites.
