SmokeShield® AOM

Chemical Name
Ammonium Octamolybdate
Molecular Formula
(NH₄)₂MoO₄

SmokeShield® AOM stands as a high-performance smoke suppressant containing Molybdenum, actively suppressing smoke in halogenated polymers, particularly PVC. Its role involves acting as a char former in the condensed phase. Its applications span jacketing and insulation for plenum and riser cables, plastisols, calendered sheets, belting, carpet tiles, and extruded sheets for subway and aircraft interiors.
