HaflonTM Halogen-free flame retardants

NP1030

Halogen-free flame retardants used in nylon

Product Features

NP1030 is a halogen-free flame retardant based on organic phosphinates. The product achieves its flame retardant effect through intumescence. The thermoplastic polymer with NP1030 foams and crosslinks on exposure to flame and forms a stable char at the surface acting as a barrier. The protective layer provides a heat insulation effect, reduces oxygen access and prevents dripping of molten polymer.

NP1030 is white particles. The product is not hygroscopic and is insoluble in water and common organic solvents like acetone, dichloromethane, MEK, toluene. The flame retardant is not hydrolyzed, not precipitated, has good self-extinguishing properties into carbon.

Specification and Technical Data

Applications

NP1030 is white powder, developed especially for Nylon. It is suitable for both glass fiber reinforced Nylon and non-reinforced Nylon. The flame retardant Nylon exhibits excellent physical and electrical properties.

Formulation

In glass fiber reinforced Nylon 6 or 6.6, recommended to add 13 to 16% (by weight).NP1030 is usually sufficient to achieve the UL94 V-0 flame retardant requirements (at 1.6 mm thickness).Due to different formulations and processing conditions, the dosage of flame retardant may be different.

Application conditions

Before processing, Nylon must be dried, the moisture content must less than 0.1%(by weight),

NP1030 does not require drying. The processing temperature should not exceed 350℃.

Package:

25 kg /bag, using paper bags with PE inner.
