FLAME RETARDANTS AND SMOKE SUPPRESSANTS

Flame retardants and smoke suppressants are key components in many compounds for wire and cable, electronic and electrical applications, aerospace and B&C applications

ABOUT RETARDANTS AND SUPPRESSANTS

Chlorinated Paraffin Wax

Chlorinated paraffin 70  can be used in rubber and plastic products as flame retardant additive for flame retardant conveyor, flame retardant cable material, fire retardant coating, polyester, polystyrene, polyethylene, epoxy, etc. It can also be used as fire retardant additive for ink, as modifier for paper industry. In addition, the material can be used in fiber and other industries as plasticizer, or as surface treatment agent and lubricant for fabric. It is also used as anti corrosive additive for anti corrosive paint.

Flame Defense Series

Antimony Trioxide and our AO replacement synergists enhance the flame retardancy of chlorine and bromine based chemicals and polymers.  The mechanism works in the vapor phase by capturing the free radicals generated by the combustion process.

Smoke Defense Series

Ammonium Octamolybdate (AOM) is a well known additive for smoke suppression in plasticized PVC.  Based on this technology, we can offer a high performance, low cost, reactive blend that can improve upon performance of AOM alone.
