CHARGUARD™ 1000

Fire Retardant Synergist

CHARGUARD™ 1000 is a white organically modified mineral thickener most suitable for compounding in combination with fire retardants in low to intermediate polarity thermoplastic resin systems. The usage of CHARGUARD™ 1000 as a synergist at total formulation weight levels of from 3.5% to 5% may lead for improvements in fire retardant protection performance leading to cost savings, reduced environmental impact, and potentially improved material properties. CHARGUARD™ 1000 enhance

the performance of both halogenated and non-halogenated flame

retardants such as aluminum trihydrate (ATH) and magnesium

hydroxide (MTH) and unlocks the maximum performance potential and return on investment of your fire-retardant package in plastic compounding applications, while being free of intentionally added fluorinated substances.

主要特性

  • Does not contain intentionally added Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
  • Enhances the effectiveness of non-halogenated and halogenated fire retardants by delaying the combustion process and stopping the spread of molten flame drip.
  • Creates char layer oxygen barrier which is non-flammable and reduces the availability of combustible gases generated during thermal decomposition.
  • Reduces the amount of smoke produced in a fire; a significant factor in improving fire safety and survivability.
  • Has potential of replacing PTFE as a fire-retardant synergist in starting point formulations.
