Balanced Performance Flame and Smoke Suppressant

Balanced Performance Flame and Smoke Suppressant is specially produced by Taixing to solve the problem of traditional flame retardant systems where strong flame retardancy leads to weak smoke suppression, and excellent smoke suppression leads to poor mechanical properties. It can achieve a triple balance of flame retardant efficiency, smoke suppression effect, and substrate mechanical properties, and can be directly applied to materials such as PP, PE, PVC, engineering plastics, and special rubber. While flame retardant, it can reduce smoke density by more than 50%, and the substrate mechanical properties retention rate exceeds 90%, making it the preferred choice for high-end flame retardant products.

mechanism of action

1. Solid phase carbonization barrier flame retardant: At high temperatures, the nano intercalated structure rapidly decomposes, releasing crystalline water to absorb heat and cool down, while promoting the formation of a dense and tough ceramicized carbon layer on the substrate surface, blocking oxygen and heat transfer, achieving efficient flame retardant, and the carbon layer structure is stable and not easy to fall off.

2. Gas phase free radical quenching and smoke suppression: The decomposed boron and magnesium containing gas phase components can efficiently capture active free radicals such as · OH and · H in the combustion chain reaction, cut off the flame propagation path, and suppress the generation of toxic gases such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen halides. The smoke density (SDR) is reduced by 55% compared to traditional halogen systems.

3. Interface compatibility and mechanical properties preservation: Surface grafted compatibilizer molecules form physical entanglement and chemical cross-linking with substrate molecular chains, filling the interface gaps between inorganic additives and organic substrates, avoiding a decrease in material tensile strength and impact toughness, and maintaining mechanical properties with a retention rate of over 92%.

4. Droplet suppression to prevent secondary fires: The additive combines with the substrate melt to form a high viscosity melt, which increases the surface tension of the melt and effectively prevents melt dripping of polyolefin materials such as PP and PE. It has passed UL 94 V-0 vertical combustion test without dripping phenomenon.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What are the advantages of this product compared to traditional composite flame retardants and smoke suppressants?

A1: Traditional composite additives often neglect one aspect over another, with poor mechanical properties for strong flame retardancy and large amounts for excellent smoke suppression; This product achieves a balance among the three through nano intercalation and interface modification technology, with lower addition and more comprehensive performance.

Q2: Will the addition affect the transparency of the transparent substrate?

A2: For transparent substrates such as transparent PP and PVC, a nanoscale transparent formula can be customized, with a light transmittance retention rate of ≥ 85% after addition, meeting the flame retardant and smoke suppression requirements of transparent products.
