With the rising PFAS and antimony scrutiny - flame retardant formulation is under pressure. How to address these challenges while maintaining performance?
This edition highlights integrated solutions like halogen-free flame retardants, organoclay synergists, and cost-effective ATO alternatives. Turn compliance challenges into formulation opportunities!
CHARGUARD™ organoclays deliver anti-drip control and robust char formation in non-halogenated formulations. They enhance thermal insulation, durability, and regulatory compliance without intentionally added PFAS.
ADINS® technology enables partial or full ATO replacement, boosting flame resistance, limiting smoke and heat release at 1–5% loading, delivering cost-efficient compliance in demanding applications.
ST-MCA-H is a halogen-free melamine cyanurate FR for PA6 and PA66, enabling V-0 performance at low dosage. It enhances dispersion, maintains mechanical properties, and reduces blooming in E&E applications.
