Flame Retardant Synergists
Product description
Biesterfeld offers a broad spectrum of flame retardant synergists:
The classical synergist for halogenated flame retardants and polymers antimony trioxide (ATO), but also alternatives to ATO from S.C. Larderello with the trade names Zinflam® ZHS and Zinflam® ZS.
Zinflam® products are enhancing the flame retardant effect of halogenated systems. Additionally they provide very efficient reduction of smoke density and heat release rate.
Zinflam® CaB is an efficient, non-classified suppressor of smoke density and as such an alternative to zink borate, which is classified as repro-toxic. Typical applications are PVC as well as halogen containing rubbers and resins.
As synergists for HFFR systems the products of PAXYMER enable to reduce the concentration of the flame retardant in the polymer and improve the mechanical properties of end products. Further they act as antidripping-agent, improve the char formation in case of fire and thus reduce the smoke density. Typically they are used in polyolefin based applications.
End applications of our flame retardant synergists are in the electronic, construction and transport industry.
We are happy to consult you in choosing and applying flame retardant synergists.
