OPA Flame Retardant

OPA Flame Retardant

Item #19
Category: OPA Flame Retardant

  • Description
  • Spec

Description

OPA-series flame retardants are formed from aluminum diethyl phosphinate, a compound that belongs to the family of eco-friendly phosphorus-based flame retardants, that displays excellent water resistance and high decomposition temperature, whose properties are suitable to make flame-resistant such resins as PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate) and PAs (Polyamides) which require high temperatures in their processing. Furthermore, this product is halogen-free flame retardant; yet, it has the same gas-phase flame retardation mechanism as most other halogen type flame retardants so that it exhibits excellent flame-retardant effects in almost all resins.

Product Features

  • 1. Exhibit exceptional high heat resistance (possible under processing conditions of more than 300℃)

  • 2. No smell, proof-discoloration

  • 3. Superior thermostability resisting more than 330℃

  • 4. Excellent flame retardancy in the most resins PE, PP, PS, PET, PBT, TPU, PA, etc.

  • 5. Achieve high synergies when in combination with various flame retardants

  • 6. Give rise to little change in their specific gravity due to small porosity when they are added to polymers

  • 7. Result in high dispersibility in various resins thanks to our proprietary coating technology
