Track: Char-enabling Magnesium Hydroxide for Enhanced Fire Performance of Polymers

A novel type of synthetic magnesium hydroxide (MDH) flame retardant has been developed to enable char-formation with reinforced char integrity. When used to formulate the halogen-free flame retardant polymer compositions such as polyolefinic compounds for cable insulation or sheathing applications where high loadings of inorganic metal hydroxides are typically needed, the new char-enabling MDH provides… Read more »
