Characteristics :
1. Powder solid, stable property, convenient for transportation, storage and use;
2. pH value is neutral, safe and stable during production and use, good compatibleness, not to react with other flame retardant and auxiliary;
3. High P-N content, appropriate proportion, excellent synergistic effect and reasonable price.

Uses :
To prepare 20% P-N flame retardant, used solely or together with other materials in the flameproof treatment for textiles, papers, fibers and woods, etc. If special treatment, can be used to prepare high-concentration flame proof liquid to 50% to meet the flame proof requirement of special production.

 

Ammonium Polyphosphate(Type II )

Product Code:GM-APP210

Product description:
Ammonium Polyphosphate (Type II) is a non-halogen flame retardant. It acts as flame retardant by intumescence mechanism. When APP-II is exposed to fire or heat, it decomposes to polymeric phosphate acid and ammonia. The polyphosphoric acid reacts with hydroxyl groups to form a nonstable phosphateester. Following dehydration of the phosphateester, a carbon foam is built up on the surface and acts as an insulation layer.

Silane Modified Ammonium Polyphosphate (Type II )

 

Product Code: GM-APP230

Product description:

GM-APP230 is a non-halogen flame retardant based on phosphorus /nitrogen synergism, it is treated by Silane based on GM-APP210 with special method. GM-APP230 is different from

GM-APP210 in such features as bellow:

 

-Reduce solubility in water;
-Reduce viscosity in water;
-Obviously improve dispersibility and compatibility with polymers and resins;

-Increase fluidity of powder;

-Improve thermal expansion efficiency during inflaming retarding process and insulation performance.

Uses :

GM-APP230 can be used for all applications that GM-APP210 is suitable. It has lower solubility in water and viscosity.These features make it is suitable for water-fast intumescent system in polymers(PU,PE,PBT, etc.) and paints.

1. Fiber materials( paper, wood, fireproof textile);
2. All kinds of polymers ( sunproof, waterproof, or fireproof outdoor materials);
3. Fire-refractory building board, coiled material;
4. Epoxy resin and unsaturated resin;
5. Cable and rubber;
6. Plastic material of electron device;
7. Textile
