ADINS® Clay 80T by Tolsa is an organomodified, high purity, ultrafine natural silicate-based flame retardant. It strongly boosts char formation during combustion and protects polymer from further fire propagation. Offers tailored performance benefits and improved processability. Offers the advantages of an inorganic halogen-free technology which guarantees no additional toxic fume formation and minimal environmental impact. It improves the thermal and fire insulation properties of extruded polystyrene foams (XPS). It improves the cellular structure in XPS foams with lower cell size, higher cell density, lower open cell content and higher cell size homogeneity. ADINS® Clay 80T is used in wire and cable and electronics. Its typical dosage level is 1-5%.
