We protect against Fire Hazards

Flame retardant additives (FR) are chemical compounds added with an objective to inhibit/retard the ignition/burning of the plastic.They reduce smoke formation and/or prevent the material from melt collapse (anti dripping).

Significance

These additives are common in numerous everyday products to avoid the ignition and burning of plastics. Halogenated flame retardants are highly effective at relatively low load levels.

Know more

Non-halogen, or halogen free, flame retardants are increasing in demand and include intumescents(phosphorus-based) and metallic oxides. To prevent combustion, it becomes necessary to design a thermally stable polymer that has a lesser probability of decomposing into combustible gases under heat stress.They do
suppress or delay combustion process, impending burning in the ignition phase of Fire.

Mechanism

Flame retardant additives can be compounded with the base polymer or added during the plastic processing step. Sometimes combustion may be prevented by simply adding the flame retardant to a surface layer finish on the final product.

Know more

When plastic burns, long-chain molecules of the polymer chain are degraded into smaller hydrocarbon molecules and flammable gases, such as free radicals through a process called pyrolysis. For a fire to begin, fuel, oxygen and an ignition source must be present. Flame retardants work by interfering or eliminating one of these key ingredients, either physically or chemically. There are a few common methods that flame retardants do to inhibit combustion, they are a)Gaseous inhibition , b)Solid char formation &
c)Endothermic cooling .

How It Works?

The most important flame retardants systems used act either in the gas phase where they remove the high energy radicals H and OH from the flame or in the solid phase, where they shield the polymer by forming a charred layer and thus protect the polymer from being attacked by oxygen and heat.
