Usage: Melamine Cyanurate is a halogen-free flame retardant for polyamide. Melamine
Cyanurate has established itself as the flame retardant to achieve UL 94 V-0 especially
for polyamide 6 and 6,6. Addition of MCA gives PA6(66) good mechanical and electrical
properties. Being halogen free also results in significant advantages in terms of fire safety,
i.e. lower smoke density, lower smoke-toxicity and less corrosion.
Application:
1.Thermolsetting resin : Epoxy resin, phenol resin , unsaturated resin,polyester resin, acrylic acid resin
2.Coating and various resin applications: fire-proof coating, flame retardant acrylic products, PU resin, PMMA, latex resin, adhesive
3.Plastic: PP, POLYOLIFIN,PET,NYLON,POM, engineering plastic etc.
4.Rubber industry: various general and synthetic rubber
5.Polyamide like (polyamide 66, 6, 11, 12)
6.Polyurethanes Type(TPU, PU RESIN ) electrical products made from TPU: switch, coupling, outer covering
Pakage: 20kg/PP/PE net bag
