When it comes to flame retardants, halogenated flame retardants may come to mind. When used, they have a good flame retardant effect and are widely used, with a large market share. But the disadvantage is that environmental standards cannot be met, and a large amount of polluting gases will be generated during the production process, so we need to be more environmentally friendly. What are the advantages of halogen-free flame retardants?

 

Nowadays, with the increasing living standards of people, environmental protection issues are receiving more and more attention, and the country has also introduced a series of environmental protection policies. In this situation, it has certainly prompted the transformation and upgrading of the flame retardant industry. Many manufacturers have also seized the opportunity and invested tens of millions of yuan in technology upgrades, equipment upgrades, personnel training, and other aspects to develop a series of flame retardant products that meet international standards. Zero halogen flame retardants are products of our company. The addition amount of halogen-free flame retardants is generally lower than that of halogenated flame retardants. Compared to halogenated flame retardants, halogen-free flame retardants have less pollution, but we do not agree that halogen-free flame retardants are environmentally friendly, so it is necessary to develop more environmentally friendly production formulas. Now it is also suitable for manufacturing magnesium salts, sugar production, pharmaceutical industry, daily chemical products, etc. Meanwhile, the water vapor it releases can also serve as a smoke suppressant. It is a new type of filling flame retardant with three functions: flame retardancy, smoke suppression, and filling.

 

Halogen free flame retardants have excellent buffering performance, reactivity, adsorption capacity, thermal decomposition performance, etc. They can also be used as chemical raw materials and intermediates, and are also an eco-friendly flame retardant and additive. This product is suitable for the polymer material industry such as rubber, plastic, fiber, resin, etc. In the field of environmental protection, halogen-free flame retardants are mainly used as flame retardants, acidic wastewater treatment agents, heavy metal removal agents, flue gas desulfurization agents, etc. I believe everyone knows that traditional flame retardant materials widely use flame retardant mixtures composed of halogenated polymers or halogenated flame retardants. The advantages of halogen flame retardants are low dosage, high flame retardant efficiency, and wide adaptability. However, their serious disadvantage is that they produce a large amount of smoke and toxic, corrosive gases during combustion, which pose great harm. Therefore, once a fire occurs, a large amount of smoke and toxic corrosive gases will be produced due to thermal decomposition and combustion, which will hinder fire extinguishing and personnel evacuation, and corrode instruments and equipment. Especially, it has been found that over 80% of fatalities in fires are caused by thick smoke and toxic gases produced by materials. Therefore, the research and development of halogen-free flame retardants are bound to receive attention. It can also serve as a high-quality flame retardant for plastic and rubber products, helping plastics achieve performance. Our company's products can certainly meet these needs, and we welcome long-term cooperative relationships with friends from all over the country. After all, it is well-known in this industry, with reasonable prices and guaranteed quality. You will definitely not be disappointed.
