Melamine Cyanurate
Melamine cyanurate stands out as a highly effective halogen-free flame retardant, offering a compelling alternative to traditional flame retardant systems. Its unique chemical structure, a complex formed from melamine and cyanuric acid, provides exceptional heat stability, reaching decomposition temperatures around 350°C and sublimation temperatures up to 440°C. This high thermal resistance ensures its efficacy in high-temperature processing environments. Furthermore, MCA contributes to lower smoke density and reduced corrosion during processing and in fire scenarios, making it a safer and more material-friendly option.
- Achieve UL94 V-0 rating: This melamine cyanurate flame retardant is proven to provide a UL94 V-0 rating in unfilled or mineral-filled polyamide and TPU compounds, significantly enhancing fire safety standards for electrical and electronic applications.
- Harness the power of nitrogen-containing flame retardancy: Leveraging its high nitrogen content, melamine cyanurate acts as a gas-phase flame retardant by diluting oxygen and flammable gases, effectively inhibiting combustion.
- Benefit from thermal stability: With a decomposition temperature of 350°C, this halogen-free flame retardant for PA6 maintains its integrity during high-temperature processing, ensuring consistent performance.
- Improve material safety: Melamine cyanurate plastic auxiliary agent is ideal for creating safer products, especially for electrical wire coatings and connectors, reducing risks associated with fire.
