Fire Retardant Fire Retardants.....
How effective is the product you are using????? Chimista Specialty Chemicals is proud to introduce "Environmentally Preferred" Fire Retardants. These products are available in powdered or liquid versions and in most cases are drop-in replacements for outdated and under-performing intumescent's such as ATH and Zinc Borates and soon to be outlawed hazardous products like ATO and Decabroms. Why you should be interested: In recent years, intumescent flame retardants have been widely used throughout many industries for their “green” technology and because they can easily replace industry standard, halogenated types. Our Non Halogen ENF Series™ are not generic, but are formulated to fit specific applications whether as standalone replacements or in combination with our synergists. They are efficient and can be used without loss of critical properties or the fire rating of the product in which they are used.Typically, our ENF Series™ is composed of three components.1.) An acid source forms an impermeable, semisolid layer during the combustion. The resultant layer is composed of polyphosphoric acid which activates char formation.2.) A carbonization agent, which is dehydrated by the acid release, forms an insulated cellular layer between the polymer and flame.
3.)
A blowing agent expands to form a swollen, multicellular char by releasing
nonflammable gas.
