Explore the delicate balance between efficiency and safety in material innovation as we delve into the strategic choices of flame retardant forms—powder vs. granules—in today's critical industries.   Read More>

The flame retardants used in engineering plastics are mainly halogenated flame retardants and phosphorus flame retardants.   Read More>

So far, there are nearly one hundred kinds of known plastic materials. According to the function of plastic is divided into three types of general-purpose plastics, engineering plastics and special plastics. There are a total of seven types of commonly used plastics. If we take a closer look at the bottom of a clear plastic bottle (e.g., plastic bottles containing food and laundry detergent), we will notice a triangular recycling symbol consisting of three arrows and the numbers 1-7 in it.   Read More>

Circular economy is a model of economic growth in line with the concept of sustainable development, China in the 1990s introduced the concept of circular economy, due to technical, economic and other multiple factors constraints, the current domestic and foreign circular economy development results are limited. These are fully embodied in the plastic cycle. As one of the important components of the circular economy, the recycling of plastic materials has a close relationship with petrochemical enterprises. Our government has long been focusing on controlling the pollution of plastic materials, and petrochemical enterprises can also do something to help plastic recycling.   Read More>

Flame retardants are a class of chemicals specifically designed to provide passive fire protection to polymers in specific fire risk situations. The fire protection provided by flame retardants can vary from flame retardation, slowing the growth of flame spread/heat release to reducing smoke and toxic gases. When properly selected and used, flame retardants can be used to implement a variety of safety measures. It is important to remember that each flame retardant solution must be customized for a specific polymer and specific testing. In other words, flame retardants are chemicals used in thermoplastics, thermosets, textiles and coatings to prevent or resist the spread of fire.   Read More>

The development and application of flame retardants have become critical with the increasing awareness of fire safety and regulatory requirements. Flame retardant modification is a common method to enhance the flame retardant properties of materials by introducing flame retardants into polymers. In this paper, we will explore the effect of flame retardant modification on the performance of polymer materials and analyze its effect through experimental data.   Read More>

Furniture and upholstery are essential components of any living space, but they also pose a significant fire risk if not adequately fireproofed. Intumescent flame retardants are a type of chemical compound that can be used to protect furniture and upholstery from fire damage. In this article, we wil   Read More>
