Char promotion additives for silicones
- Halogen-free
- RoHS compliant
- Suitable for wire & cable applications
- Improve flame retardancy
- Improve ash strength
Information
XF®T-Series char promotion additives for silicones are inorganic compounds developed to improve flame retardant properties of silicone systems.
Improvements in both flame retardancy and ash cohesion can be achieved in silicone elastomers incorporating XF®T-Series additives.
This product is free from halogen compounds.
Application
XF®T-Series char promotion additives for silicones are suitable for use in systems for electronic applications and cable & wiring compounds. XF® fi re retardants should be considered whenever an improvement to fire retardant systems is required.
