Halogen free flame retardant such as APP, AHP, MCA offers significant advantages when used in plastic. It acts as an effective flame retardant, enhancing the fire resistance of the material. Furthermore, it helps improve the plastic's mechanical and thermal properties, making it more durable and resistant to high temperatures.
plastic flame retardant PP
Product description: TF-241 mainly contains P and N, is a kind of halogen free environmentally friendly flame retardant for polyolefin. It has been developed especially for various PP. Containing acid source, gas source and carbon source, TF-241 takes effect by char formation and intumescent mechanism.
Advantage: The flame retardant PP treated by TF-241 has better water resistance. It still has good flame retardant (UL94-V0) performance after boiling 72 hours in 70℃ water.
PP（3.0-3.2mm) with 22% TF-241 can pass the tests of UL94 V-0 and GWIT 750℃ / GWFI 960℃.
PP (1.5-1.6mm) with 30% addition volume of TF-241 can pass the tests of UL94 V-0.
