Overview
Melamine Polyphosphate (MP) is a halogen-free intumescent flame retardant synthesized via polycondensation of melamine and phosphoric acid. It acts as a smoke suppressor and char promoter in polymers. CAS No. 25971-62-4; Formula C3H6N6·(HPO3)n.
Application
- Polyolefins: Used in PE/PP cables for automotive wire harnesses to meet UL94 V-0 standards.
- Engineering Plastics: Added to PA6, PBT, and PC blends for electrical connectors requiring high heat resistance.
- Coatings: Applied in fire-retardant architectural paints for steel structures.
Precautions
- Storage: Keep in dry, cool areas below 40°C to prevent hydrolysis and clumping.
- Safety: Wear respiratory protection during handling to avoid inhalation of fine dust particles.
- Limitations: Not suitable for high-temperature processing above 280°C due to thermal decomposition.
