Brands in Flame Retardants

FR Eco-Additive™ is a combination of Avtec’s TSWB® fire retarding and smoke suppressing additive and a crystalline graphite. FR Eco-Additive™ may be combined with composite resins and film forming binders to manufacture paints and coatings. Upon exposure to fire or high radiant heat the TSWB ® mitigates flammability and smoke generation as the graphite expands to form a thick insulating surface covering. This felt-like surface provides fire and heat resistance for assemblies that must meet prescribed burn-through and hourly fire rating criteria, e.g., ASTM E119, UL1709.FR Eco-Additive™ is a non-toxic antimony and bromine-free powder that disperses easily in both solvent and aqueous based resins. FR Eco-Additive™ is available with graphite loading levels of 20, 25 and 30%. Please contact Avtec for a product recommendation specific to the end-product use and fire erformance criteria.

St. Louis Group offers a wide range of highly effective liquid & powder phosphorus based flame retardants. Specialty dispersions, blends, and masterbatches are available upon request.

Santicizer® Plasticizers offer all the benefits of high solvating plasticizers including compatibility in multiple polymer systems such as Polysulfide, PVC and Polyurethane. Because of their high efficiency, less energy is required to fuse PVC formulations. These materials are well suited for plastisol applications, but can easily be used in almost any polymer system that requires additional flexibility and softness.

PROFLEX PLASTICIZERS are primarily derived from sulfonamide chemistry. These are high-quality resin modifiers which exceptional performance and product quality. Traditional applications for the ProFlex line include fluorescent pigments, melamine-formaldehyde resins, nail lacquers, and printing inks

Our FireBlend® line offers alternatives to antimony trioxide. We produce these proprietary products domestically and tailor them to flame retardant requirements.

St. Louis Group manufactures and distributes a comprehensive line of smoke suppressants that include traditional smoke suppressants, as well as low cost AOM alternatives and high-performance proprietary blends.

METABLEN™ is the trade name of modifiers, which have been developed originally by Mitsubishi chemical, a world prominent manufacture of methyl methacrylate resins. Adding a small quantity of METABLEN™ to various resins improves and increases their impact strength and processability, and further improves the characteristics, the appearance and the productivity of their final products. *METABLEN™ is provided by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, a member of the Mitsubishi Chemical Group.

GENIOPLAST® from WACKER are silicone-based additives and production aids for both standard thermoplastics and engineering plastics. GENIOPLAST® pellets and GENIOPLAST® additives for wood plastic composites (WPCs) enhance processes and products in the melt-processing industry.

St. Louis Group is an established & viable supplier of brominated flame retardants. We are a domestic manufacturer of brominated polyols and blends. We also have contract manufacturing operations in China. Specialty dispersions and masterbatches are available upon request.

CharFlam brand offers non-halogenated products that promote char formation in intumescent flame retardant applications & engineering resins.

St. Louis Group is one of the largest volume suppliers of antimony trioxide (ATO) in the US market. We are vertically integrated with mining and production operations in Bolivia and have contract manufacturing operations in China. Specialty dispersions and masterbatches are available upon request.

SLG offers chlorinated flame retardants that have synergy with antimony trioxide.
