Solutions also sold as Renol™ UL 94 Colorants IMPORTANCE OF UL 94 There are two major established norms in the E&E industry that relate to plastics flammability: the IEC 60695 standard and the UL 94 standard. In order to have a concentrate recognized by UL, the following conditions must be met: • the color concentrate producer must be recognized by UL • the polymer, generic or specific, must be recognized as well • the recognition of the material combination (base resin + color concentrate) must be listed in the QMSQ2 file of the concentrate producer • the specification limits set in the QMQS2 file must be respected if the UL 94 recognition is to apply to the final plastic part Avient has a wide range of color and cost options available to provide maximum flexibility.
