Usage Level

The usage level of the various grades depends on the material being treated, the test procedure, the ratio of halogen to antimony oxide, and other ingredients being used.; It is not possible to predict flame retardance performance; therefore, experimental evaluation is required.; Typical ratios of halogen to antimony are 5:1 to 2:1.; Typical use levels of antimony pentoxide are 1.5-8%, with a halogen use level range of 5-20%.

Product Form

BurnEx® ADP494 is a powder made by spray-drying aqueous solutions of colloidal antimony pentoxide.; It is surface-treated to aid dispersion to colloidal size.; The product is free-flowing agglomerates.

Handling and Compounding

Stable and non-settling dispersions are formed in solvents with gentle mixing. Polymer solutions can be blended with such dispersions and will yield transparent films when dried.; BurnEx® ADP480 can be blended into ABS, HIPS and polypropylene in compounding equipment such as a twin screw extruder.; BurnEx® ADP480 contain some free and chemically bonded water, it is important that the compounding equipment be vented. In hot melt adhesive applications, some foaming may occur during the initial melt blending.; Epoxy resins can be blended with BurnEx ADP494 dissolved in a ketone, and used to completely impregnate a reinforcement to produce a transparent laminate.
