Fluoropolymers are a family of exceptional, high-performance materials that are widely used today – and for good reason, since they are stable plastics that resist degradation under harsh conditions and are inherently flame retardant. Today, fluoropolymers serve a broad range of applications with their unique material properties, including chemical inertness, low friction, weatherability, natural flame retardance, temperature resistance, and barrier properties. For example, fluoropolymers are used as coatings for wire and cable found in buildings and aircraft thanks to their natural flame retardance.

Cesa™ Fiber Additives Flame Retardants for Synthetic Fibers and Nonwovens Ignitability and flame spread, with or without an additional radiant heat source, are a particular concern for fibers used in indoor applications, or indeed anywhere where human lives could be endangered. Our Cesa™ Fiber Additives portfolio includes flame retardant solutions as additive concentrates which are incorporated into the polymer during the spin-dyeing process. CHEMISTRY Avient’s non-halogen flame retardant systems for fibers can be applied to decrease the flammability of polypropylene, while nitrogen and phosphorous based chemistries are used to impart flame retardant properties to polyester and polyamide PA 6 and PA 6.6.

GLOBAL ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONICS PRODUCER DIFFERENTIATES ITSELF WITH NEW PRODUCTS FEATURING NON-HALOGENATED FLAME- RETARDANT SEALS MOLDED FROM THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS Gaskets are intended to insulate the boxes for electrical safety, and must be flame retardant to reduce the chance of fire caused by sparks or electrical overload. Avient GLS thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) material specialists identified a current TPE within the OnFlex™ S HF, non-halogenated, flame retardant portfolio that could be slightly modified to meet the application’s requirements.
