In the realm of flame retardancy, innovation is constantly driving the search for safer, more efficient, and environmentally friendly solutions. One such groundbreaking product is the AT782, an eco - friendly halogen - free flame - retardant synergist that is revolutionizing the way we approach fire safety.
The Drawbacks of Traditional Antimony Oxide
Antimony oxide, especially tri - antimony dioxide, has long been a staple in the flame - retardant industry. However, it comes with its fair share of problems. From an environmental perspective, concerns about its potential toxicity and the impact on human health have been raised. As environmental regulations around the world become stricter, the use of such substances is being closely monitored. Moreover, in some applications, the high cost of antimony oxide can significantly increase the production expenses of flame - retardant polymers.
Enter AT782: A Game - Changer
AT782 is a remarkable alternative to antimony oxide. This product is an environmentally friendly halogen - free flame - retardant synergist, which means it not only meets the stringent requirements of global environmental regulations but also offers excellent performance. It complies fully with regulations such as the EU's 2002/95/EC (RoHS) Directive and the REACH Regulation. These regulations aim to limit the use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment and ensure the safety of consumer products.
One of the most outstanding features of AT782 is its exceptional synergistic effect with halogen - based flame retardants. It can enhance the flame - retardant performance of the overall system, making the products more resistant to fire. Additionally, it has a certain smoke - suppressing effect, which is crucial in fire - safety scenarios. When it comes to PVC flame - retardant polymers, AT782 can replace 100% of the antimony oxide. This substitution not only addresses environmental and health concerns but also leads to a significant reduction in the cost of flame - retardant polymers, making it an attractive option for manufacturers.
Recommended Usage and Precautions
For optimal results in PVC applications, a recommended dosage of around 6% of AT782 can meet the 5VA flame - retardant test. When using AT782, it is important to note that since the addition amount in the flame - retardant resin is relatively small, it is best to mix it well with other additives before combining it with the resin. This ensures uniform mixing of the flame retardant and stable flame - retardant effects, maximizing the product's fire - resistant capabilities.
Packaging and Storage
AT782 is packaged in 25kg bags for easy handling and transportation. It can be transported as a general chemical, but it should be stored in a dry and cool place, away from direct sunlight. This storage condition helps to maintain the product's quality and performance over time.
