Product Features

ADINS® additives, based on functionalized uncommon silicate with a needle-like structure, allow to improve the fire performance of polymeric formulations:; Enhances char structure, improving gas barrier and mechanical properties; Avoids flame propagation by burning polymer dripping; Reduces the smoke production

Test Conclusions

In the UL 94 test we can see how the samples not drip; All samples showed similar behaviour in the cone calorimeter test; When ADINS is added into the PP/ intumescent formulations the Total Smoke Production and the Smoke Density is reduced in all cases
