PolyOne’s ECCOH™ low-smoke and fume, non-halogen flame-retardant material for wire and cable enabled Keystone to quickly manufacture and deliver medium- and low-voltage power cables that complied with safety, performance, reliability and environmental requirements.
PolyOne‘s ECCOH material met Keystone’s requirements for excellent electrical and mechanical properties, long-term aging reliability, flame retardance to improve safety in the event of fire (IEC-60332-24), and a non-halogen formulation to meet environmental standards (IEC-60574).

Cesa™ Flame Retardant Additives
PTFE-free and Non-halogen for Polycarbonate
Polycarbonate is a material of choice for E&E
products as it provides very good impact strength,
dimensional stability, and heat resistance.Some
applications require the use of flame-retardant
solutions to increase safety and ensure compliance
with fire hazard standards.
Avient’s PTFE-free and non-halogen Cesa™ Flame
Retardant Additives for polycarbonate are
formulated without PTFE and are non-halogen in
accordance with the IEC 61249-2-21 standard.
They
also offer the ability for producers seeking more
flexibility in managing plastic material inventory
to store large quantities of virgin or recycled resin
and order flame-retardant concentrates as needed
for individual projects.
