Case Study: Yinsu RDP Flame Retardant for Automobiles

FRP-750A, Red Phosphorus Flame Retardant for PP Materials in Automotive Applications, in the manufacturing of automotive interior parts

Background: 

In automotive manufacturing, the use of polypropylene (PP) is widespread due to its lightweight and durable nature. However, its flammability is a concern, necessitating the use of effective flame retardants.

Application of FRP-750A: 

An automotive manufacturer incorporated FRP-750A, a red phosphorus-based flame retardant, into the production of PP-based interior components, aiming to enhance fire safety without compromising material integrity.

Test Data and Results:

Flame Retardancy: The addition of FRP-750A is 7% and achieve UL94-V0. It significantly improved the flame retardancy of PP components, achieving high safety standards,

Impact Resistance: Despite the flame retardant properties, the material maintained a high impact strength of around 15, crucial for automotive parts' durability.

Environmental Compliance: FRP-750A, being non-halogenated, met the environmental and health safety standards required in the automotive industry.

Conclusion: 

The use of FRP-750A in PP materials for automotive applications effectively balanced enhanced flame retardancy with the necessary impact resistance and environmental compliance, demonstrating its suitability for critical automotive components.
