You might come across certain qualities of plastics which makes it versatile for many applications, but almost all plastics are flammable in nature. Experts have developed flame retardant additives for plastics that reduce fire risk by either slowing down or preventing combustion altogether. Flame retardants are added to prevent or slow down the combustion of plastics. These additives are added at the time of polymer manufacturing or by the compounding route, but effective flame retardant masterbatch solutions are also available with minimum addition levels for various applications.
There are mainly two types of Flame fire retardant additives available. Halogenated & Non-Halogenated or Halogen free.
Halogenated flame retardant additives are very effective at lower addition levels. But non-halogenated additives are of great demand considering regulations of use.
1. Type of polymers used
2. Flame retardancy requirements like testing methods and other regulations
3. Interaction of other additives (especially UV) or colorants added at the time of processing.
4. Thickness of the end product
The selection of flame retardant additives for plastics depends on several factors: the type of polymer, expected fire performance ratings (like UL 94 V-0 or HB), and how the material behaves with other additives like UV stabilizers or colorants. Sometimes, product thickness can impact how effective the flame retardant masterbatch is, so formulation needs to be tailored carefully.
