Description
Ammonium polyphosphate is a phosphorus-nitrogen type halogen-free flame retardant. It has high content of P and N flame retardant elements, good thermal stability, almost neutral, non-toxic and low smoke. Used in engineering plastics, rubber conveyor belts, and intumescent fire retardant coatings, it has low water solubility, low processing viscosity, and high flame retardancy. When used in coatings, It has better rheology and stability. With the same addition amount, Taixing’s Ammonium polyphosphate has a higher expansion rate and denser carbon layer, generate a longer fire protection time.
