- Product Benefits
- Based on an organic metal phosphinate
- Not hygroscopic, insoluble in water and common organic solvents like acetone, dichloromethane, MEK, toluene
- Good hydrolysis resistance
- Halogen-free flame retardant with a high phosphorus content which is suitable for use in both thermoplastic and thermoset applications to meet the most stringent fire retardancy standards
- Particularly suitable for very thin adhesive applications like flexible printed circuit boards due to its specifically designed particle size distribution; can be readily dispersed in epoxy resin systems when a high shear mixer is used
- Low smoke toxicity
- Non-halogenated flame retardant with favorable environmental and health profilexolit OP 945 is a white, fine-grained powder based on an organic phosphinate with a D95 of less than 5 μm. The product is not hygroscopic and it is insoluble in water an
- Common organic solvents like acetone, dichloromethane, MEK, toluene. Exolit OP 945 can easily be dispersed in solvents like acetone or MEK.
