Polymer additives for Appliances

CHARGUARD™ 2010 by Elementis is an organically modified special lamellar silicate used as a flame-retardant synergist. It improves the mechanical properties of thermoplastic materials.

• It does not contain intentionally added per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
• Enhances gas barrier and reduces heat release rate to achieve the synergistic effect of flame retardant.
• Its unique functional groups strengthen the inorganic structure, increases char formation efficiency, enhances the density & strength of carbon layer and inhibit dripping.
• It lowers aluminum hydroxide and magnesium dosage in polymers.
• It is suitable for halogen-free flame-retardant thermoplastic compounds such as ethylene-vinyl acetate co-polymer (EVA), low density polyethylene (LDPE), high impact styrene (HIPS), polypropylene (PP), polyamide (nylon 6) and polylactic acid (PLA).
• Recommended dosage level is 1%-5% as supplied based on total formulation weight.
• It is suitable for automotive, household, recycled and flame-retardant plastic applications.
• CHARGUARD™ 2010 has a shelf life of 4 years.
• It is ISO 9001 certified.
• Complies with USA (TSCA), EU (EINECS), Canada (DSL), Japan (ENCS), Philippines (PICCS), Korea (KECL), China (IECSC), Australia (AICIS), New Zealand (NZIoC) and Taiwan (TCSI)
