Preniphor™ EPFR-100C

1 of 7 products in this brand
Preniphor™ EPFR-100C, mainly contains N and P, is a kind of halogen free environmentally friendly flame retardant for polyolefin. It has been developed especially for various PP products, and can be used in other polyolefin products as well. Containing acid source, gas source and carbon source, PreniphorTM EPFR-100C takes effect by char formation and intumescent mechanism

Product Characteristics

PP with Preniphor™ EPFR-100C can pass the tests of UL94-V0 (1.5mm), 70°C×168 hours water-immersion (UL746C). Besides, it can also pass the test of GWIT 750°C and GWFI 960°C. Moreover, it is free from the restrictions of RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC approved by the EU and the Council. The products with Preniphor™ EPFR-100C are characterized by low density, lowsmoke generation, less mold corrosion and low price. PE with Preniphor™ EPFR-100C, in some degree, may lead to the phenomenon of water-sliding surface during the process of extrusion. However, PP with Preniphor™EPFR-100C will not meet this situation

Extrusion Process (Twin Screw Extruder)

Preniphor™ EPFR-100C - Extrusion Process (Twin Screw Extruder)

Notes

  • Because decomposition temperature of Preniphor™ EPFR-100C in nitrogen is 250 ℃, the processing temperature of twin screw extruder can be adjusted in accordance with the actual need. Under the condition of making Preniphor™ EPFR-100C dispersed and mixed homogeneous, the processing temperature should not be too high so that it can avoid decomposition of the flame retardant resulting in slight foaming. The sieve should be removed during the process of extrusion, or it’s easy to get foamed. Maintain vacuum of the twin screw extruder during the processing is also needed.
  • Choose the resin with suitable melt index in accordance with particular situation so that it is convenient for the processing of twin screw extrusion, injection molding and so on.
  • If the dosage of carbon black is higher than 0.5%, the flame retardant performance will be weakened. Adding inorganic substances (glass fiber, calcium carbonate, talc, barium sulfate and so on) will affect the flame retardant performance. Adding additives containing Br, Cl (etc.) will lead to ineffectiveness of flame retardant.
