SLFR -8

Melamine Cyanurate (MCA). Acts as a flame retardant. It is a kind of salt synthesized from melamine and cyanuric acid, and belongs to phosphorus-nitrogen flame retardant. The vaporized melamine acts as an inert gas source diluting the oxygen and the fuel gases present at the point of combustion. The cyanuric acid acts to decompose the polymer thus rapidly removing it from the combustion source. It has established itself as the flame retardant of choice to achieve UL94 V-0 especially for unfilled polyamide 6 and 6, 6. It is cost effective and non-blooming. It has low smoke generation, low corrosivity, and excellent colorability, electrical and mechanical properties. It is also a safe material to use from a handling standpoint, as well as in fire situations in compounds, health, safety, and compatible with environment.
