FLEXcon has expanded its non-halogenated, flame retardant portfolio with 2.0 and 4.0 mm transfer tapes and coated films. FLEXcon specialises in adhesive coating and laminating. The company’s L-59FR Series products now achieve UL 94 V-0 at 2.0 to 4.0 mm coating...
Phytic acid from plants, which contains 28% phosphors w/w, is increasingly tested as the basis for bio-based PIN FRs. The rieview summarises nearly one hundred studies of phytic acid and compounds based on phytic acid as PIN FRs in a range of polymers and applications...
Trials suggest that an aluminium phosphonate and melamine cyanurate provide synergistic fire protection coating for ABS. EMPCP (ethylene glycol methyl propionate cylohexanediol phosphonate) was reacted with aluminium isopropoxide to general an aluminium phosphonate...
PIN flame retardants show varying impacts on fire performance and smoke emissions from rigid polyurethane foam. Seven combinations of P-based, inorganic and nitrogen flame retardants and nano-fillers were tested and compared to pure rigid PU foam: triethylphosphate...
