Halogenated flame retardants generally have the lowest usage rate. • Inorganic flame retardants dilute the available plastic fuel, dilute the incendiary gases, and absorb energy via endothermic reactions, but must be used at very high dosages. • Intumescent flame retardants form a protective layer upon combustion, eliminating the polymer fuel source.

Avient’s development team went back to work and quickly developed a flame-retardant grade that meets UL requirements for a V0 rating.

Use processing additives to maintain dimensional stability, reduce warpage and sink, or improve scrap rate.

The low usage rate, low minimum order quantities, and pelletized form for easy handling and storage make these concentrates a versatile and cost-effective choice.
