Flame Retardant masterbatches are used to prevent detonation or spread of flame in plastic material. Plastics perceive substantial use in the critical construction, electrical and transport applications which have to meet fire safety standards.
Flame retardant masterbatches are specially formulated to be effective against fire initiation and quenching while at the same time maintaining balance of mechanical properties of plastics. These flame retardant masterbatches when incorporated in plastics function by delaying the onset of fire and its spread.
