Product Characteristics

It is high in content of nitrogen, and it will dehydrate carbon while in high temperature, and it will also release N2, CO2 and water while burning. The flame retardancy takes effect through absorbing heat and releasing incombustible gasses after sublimation. PA6 and PA66 with Phoniton™M MCA-8 can pass the tests of UL 94 V-0 (0.75mm). and it also is suitable for textile coating due to fine particle size.
