Aluminium Trihydrate (ATH)
A mineral flame retardant for halogen-free polymer systems, including HFFR and LSZH cable compounds.
Halogen-free cable compounds01 / FIRE & SMOKE MANAGEMENT
Formulated around
fire performance.
Functional additives for flame-retardant cable and polymer formulations, with a focus on LSZH and HFFR cable compounds.
A system-level decision.
Different flame-retardant systems call for different chemistries. Select the additive around the polymer, processing conditions and the role it needs to play.
ATH and MDH serve halogen-free formulation routes. Antimony trioxide has a different role as a synergist in halogen-containing systems such as PVC. The additive package must be considered together with the polymer and the finished cable requirements.
