Code: 10241. Supply of melamine-based flame retardants as additives in both virgin and recycled plastic materials.

In flame retardant additives for plastics, melamine acts as a flame retardant in plastics mainly by forming a barrier of unburned gases during the combustion process.

When melamine decomposes at high temperatures , it releases inert gases, such as nitrogen and water, which dilute the surrounding atmosphere and interfere with the chemical reaction of combustion.

This flame retardant reduces the speed of flame spread and helps limit the flammability of the plastic material, making it more resistant to fire.

Melamine-based flame retardants are used in a wide range of applications, including plastics used in electronic products, furniture, fabrics and coatings.

They are often preferred in industries where it is essential to reduce the risk of fire and improve safety, such as electronic products, for example, they can incorporate melamine-based flame retardants to protect plastic components from possible fire or overheating.

Melamine is known for its effectiveness in providing fire resistance without significantly compromising the mechanical properties of materials.
