BX FR OP950
Description
DescriptionBX FR OP950 is a white granular powder based on an organic phosphinate. The product is not hygroscopic and slightly soluble both in water and in common organic solvents. It melts at 200 °C.
Application
BX FR OP950 is a flame retardant for thermoplastics and synthetic fibers. Due to its high phosphorus content, the product is distinguished by its high efficiency.
BX FR OP950 is developed especially for use in polyesters. It is suitable for injection molding and fiber applications.The flame retarded polyester compounds exhibit very well
physical and electrical properties.
The recommended dosage of BX FR OP950 for PET fibers is 5-10%. With 5% BX FR OP950 a limit oxygen index (LOI) of 33% can be achieved. BX FR OP950 has to be
incorporated in the PET compound before the spinning process.In PBT, a dosage of 10-15% (by wt.)NP3006 together with 10-15% nitrogen synergists like melamine
polyphosphate or melamine cyanurate is usually sufficient to obtain the UL 94 V-0 classification for electrical components (at 1.6 as well as 0.8mm thicknesses). BX FR OP950 melts under processing temperatures above 200°C and is miscible with the molten polyesters. Before incorporating BX FR OP950, it is important to predry the polyester as usual.

Attention
Before processing, Nylon must be dried, and the moisture content must be less than 0.1%(by weight), and BX FR OP1312 does not require drying. The processing temperature should not exceed 320℃.
Packing
25 kg /bag, using paper bags with PE inner. The product should be stored in a dry place at room temperature.
