Antimony Trioxide/Olefin Wax Granule
Fyrebloc 400 is a granular combination of antimony trioxide bound in an olefinic wax carrier
- High loading of active antimony trioxide at 90% by weight.
- Very low dusting thereby improved plant hygiene.
- Universal end applications where polymers are compounded by hot extrusion.
- Faster product changeover and reduced cleanup costs.
- Increased production rates and reduced handling costs.
Fyrebloc 400 is recommended as a flame retardant for use in chlorinated polymers and rubbers such as rigid and plasticised PVC, neoprene and chlorinated polyethylene compounded by hot extrusion.
In non-halogenated polymers such as polyolefins and styrenics a co-used brominated compound is used to confer flame retardancy via a free radical trap mechanism in the flame.
Great Lakes have developed granular Fyreblocs containing antimony trioxide and selected brominated compounds for these applications (please refer to Fyreblocs 210/211 and 500).
