5% Ash Expandable Graphite Powder Fire Retardant For PE PP HIPS
Fire Retardant Graphite 9550200
Product Description
Expandable graphite is a synthesized intercalation compound of graphite that expands or exfoliates when heated.
As a result of the heat of a fire the graphite expands and creates an intumescent layer on the surface of the material. This retards the spread of fire and minimizes one of the most harmful effects of combustion: the creation of toxic gases and fumes.
| HS558HT | +50 | 180:1 | 95-97 | <1 | 6-9 | * | 220 | Mixing, extruding or processing at higher temperatures. Used as fire-retardant additive in PE, PP, and HIPS. |
| HS558UHT | +50 | 180:1 | 95-97 | <1 | 6-9 | * | 250 | Processing temperatures are very high. Used as fire-retardant additive in PE, PP, and HIPS. |
Benefits of expandable graphite as flame retardant:
1. Forms an intumescence layer with Thermal Radiation Shielding, with superior Heat Diffusion.
2. Stops or slows the spread of fire and toxic gases.
3. Easy to apply, cost Effective, satisfied performance with low adding levels.
4. Non-toxic, non-halogenated fire-stop additive.
5. Neutral surface pH makes compatible with any catalyst system.
