What are flame retardants

Flame retardant is also called fire retardant, fire retardant or fire retardant: functional auxiliary which gives inflammable polymer fire resistance; According to the application, it can be divided into additive flame retardant and reactive flame retardant. According to the composition, the additive flame retardant mainly includes inorganic flame retardant, halogen flame retardant (organic chloride and organic bromine), phosphorus flame retardant (red phosphorus, phosphate and halophosphate, etc.) and nitrogen flame retardant. The reactive flame retardant is mainly the monomer of organic halogen and organophosphorus containing reactive functional groups. In addition, molybdenum compounds, tin compounds and iron compounds with smoke suppression are also flame retardant. It is mainly suitable for plastics with fire retardant demand, delaying or preventing the burning of plastics, especially polymer plastics. It can increase the ignition time, and self extinguish the ignition, which is difficult to ignite.
