Flame Retardants / Smoke Suppressants > Ammonium Polyphosphates (APP)

Ammonium Polyphosphate (APP) is a stable and non-volatile compound. It comes under the category of halogen free flame retardants and works as a smoke suppressant too. Ammonium Polyphosphate (APP) is very cost effective when compared to other halogen free systems. Lower loading into polymers ensures good retention of mechanical and electrical properties and excellent flow. Allowing plastics to exhibit excellent processability, Ammonium Polyphosphate (APP) is used as an efficient flame retardant in the furniture industry and for interior fabrics for the automotive industry.
