Melamine based polymer flame retardant is safe and nontoxic

Over the years, we have been committed to the application of melamine in many aspects and detailed in-depth research. DSM is undoubtedly the global leader in melamine technology. It has been proved that melamine based polymer flame retardant system is the earliest nitrogen based flame retardant, which can be used in polyurethane and polyamide. Its function is obvious: this kind of flame retardant does not need to add any other additives, and the addition amount is small, it can be used in a variety of polymers, so it has good economic benefits.

Melamine based polymer flame retardant is safe, non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and conducive to long-term interests.

Other selection criteria are its chemical composition and its mechanism of action: the corrosiveness of flame retardant, processing technology, application, and the mode of action in the combustion process, especially when smoldering or recycling.

In the open fire test, the amount of smoke is also more concerned. In essence, the corrosiveness and smoke emission of flame retardant are related to its chemical composition and action mode. In incomplete combustion, halogen flame retardants produce a large amount of smoke. Corrosivity is also related to the presence of potentially corrosive substances such as halogens.

At present, the market tends to have high safety (such as home TV industry). We are aware of the need to reduce the opacity and toxicity of smoke to support and promote the development of melamine based flame retardants. It can be seen that the use of halogenated systems is being restricted not only in Europe but also in the United States. This kind of change is not only subjective, but actually adapted to the whole business.

As the flame retardants themselves do not show much value, they need to be combined with other polymers and carriers. In the use of polymer, changing any structure will affect the further use of flame retardant. Let's take the TV market as an example: hips will probably no longer dominate the flat color TV market.
