The challenge for the flame retardant plastics industry

Today's flame retardant plastic, is facing the challenge from two aspects. On the one hand, it is some high and new technology products (and even some consumer goods and building products) becomes more and more strict fire safety standards; On the other hand, the environmental protection laws and regulations limit the certain selection of bromine series flame retardant plastic, to scrap recycling flame retardant plastic products at the same time is more urgent. Fire safety standard for flame retardant plastics has provided a broad space for development, promote the continuous development of the flame retardant technology, and environmental rules will make a lot of designer and manufacturer products encountered unprecedented difficulties, especially for some critical applications in the field of plastic (such as high temperature resistant engineering plastics, automotive low fog soft foam plastics, printed circuit board with halogen free flame retardant plastics), at the same time, it is imperative to meet the requirements of flame retardant and two aspects of environmental protection.

 

At the same time, electronic electrical industrial material utilizing and the miniaturization of electronic components and thin wall, more requirements flame retardant plastic has good heat stability, processability and prevent bubble performance, it also makes some traditional flame retardant plastic appears powerless.

 

The problem is, of course, be a challenging technical problems, but also is making some progress.
