FR8719PP EU – A Sustainable and Efficient ATO-Free Solution
The Answer to the Volatile Market of Flame Retardant Additives and Compounds
The global flame retardant market is facing serious challenges. The sharp increase in the price and the shortage of antimony trioxide (ATO) – a key component in many halogenated flame retardant additives and compounds – is causing significant supply disruptions and rising costs.
An Innovative Alternative from Our Partners at Tosaf: FR8719PP EU
Tosaf introduces FR8719PP EU – a high-performance, cost-effective, and completely halogen-free flame retardant that contains no ATO. It delivers the same level of flame resistance as traditional solutions, while offering greater resilience to market disruptions and more stable supply.
Halogen-Free and Regulation-Compliant
FR8719PP EU is designed with safer and more environmentally friendly production in mind, fully compliant with modern regulatory requirements in sectors such as construction, automotive, and cable protection.
Proven Efficiency at Low Dosages
This solution is specifically developed for polypropylene (PP) extrusion and injection molding. With effective performance at dosages as low as 3% to 10%, FR8719PP EU achieves UL94 V2 classification without compromising the mechanical properties of the material. In comparison, other halogen-free solutions often require over 20% loading.
Cleaner and More Efficient Processing
The low dosage leads to better processability, making the production process cleaner and more efficient.
Flexibility and Adaptability
FR8719PP EU is part of Tosaf’s broader halogen-free flame retardant portfolio and is compatible with various PP types, melt flow indexes (MFI), and part geometries. It is suitable for both specific applications and general-purpose use.
A Smart Choice in Uncertain Times
As the availability of traditional halogenated flame retardants declines, FR8719PP EU offers a sustainable, reliable, and cost-effective alternative. Manufacturers can confidently transition to a more environmentally responsible future without compromising on quality.
