ATO that is released will collect on hard surfaces and could potentially mix with soil or other porous surfaces. Contained releases of ATO should be collected and disposed of per established protocols.

These additive solutions create a char or gas that reduces oxygen at the source of flame, leading to components that become self-extinguishing, and potentially lowering the heat release rate over time. Fire time to ignition is increased while heat release and fire spread are reduced, resulting in enhanced fire safety for life and property. TARGET APPLICATIONS • Aerospace • Appliances • Automotive, including electric vehicles • Building & construction • Electrical & electronics • Public transportation • Recreational vehicles, bikes & scooters • Wire & cable IMPACT • Reduce spread of fire and heat release • Limit quantity of smoke to allow people to find their way to safety more easily • Limit toxicity and acidity of gases so people are less likely to be overcome by fumes • Enhance char formation, avoiding droplets which can proliferate fire • Meet regulation and legislation requirements Copyright © 2024, Avient Corporation.
