Halogen-Free Flame Retardant Compounds
Halogen-free Compounds lower smoke and toxicity, and comply with halogen-prohibiting labels, such as RoHS, allowing manufactured products be sold worldwide.
Product Characteristics
- Standard formulas rated UL94 V-0 at 1/16" (1.5 mm) or better are available in nearly all popular resin system.
- Allow selection of environmentally-conscious materials without compromising mechanical or flame retardant performance.
- Lower specific gravity results in less material usage and lowers per part costs.
- Non-corrosive to tools and equipment, preventing costly damage.
- Lower smoke emissions make them ideal for use in enclosed spaces.
Typical Applications
- Computer/business equipment housings and components
- Appliances
- Telecommunications
- Building and structural components
- Commercial transportation
