Specification and Technical Data
Applications
ADP-10 is suited as flame retardant for thermoplastics and thermosets. Due to its high phosphorus content the product is distinguished by a high efficiency.
ADP-10 can even be applied in high temperature polyamides because of its high temperature stability. It is suitable for both glass fibre reinforced and unreinforced grades. The flame retardant polyamide compounds exhibit very good physical and electrical properties.
In high temperature polyamides of PA 6T/66 type, a dosage of approx. 15 % (by wt.) ADP-10 is usually sufficient to obtain the UL 94 V-0 classification for electrical compounds (at 1.6 as well as 0.8 mm thicknesses). Subject to the polymer grade, processing conditions and glass fibre reinforcement the dosage of the flame retardant may vary.
Processing
Before incorporating ADP-10, it is important to predry the polymer as usual. If possible, the resulting moisture content should be below 0.1 % (by wt.) for high temperature polyamides, 0.05 % (by wt.) for PBT and 0.005% for PET. Predrying of ADP-10 is not necessary. However, predrying (e. g. 4h at 120 °C) is recommended, if even very low moisture contents must be avoided.
Wear and corrosion protected materials are recommended for compounding and injection-molding of ADP-10 in reinforced polyesters, high temperature polyamides, or aromatic polyamides.
The mixing and processing methods customary in powder processing of polymers can be used with ADP-10.
The optimum conditions for incorporating should be determined in each individual case. Care must be taken to ensure homogeneous dispersion of all components. The temperature of the polymer melt should not exceed 350 °C.
