ADINS® Clay 20
- Chemical Name
- Hydrous Magnesium Silicate
ADINS® Clay 20 enhances char structure, improving gas barrier and mechanical properties while also avoiding flame propagation through burning polymer dripping. It appears as a free-flowing powder.

- 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
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.; In the UL-94 test we can see how the samples not drip.; In this formulation, with ADINS Clay B25 the Total Smoke Production is 60% reduced.
