Features Of BASF NOR116 Flame Retardant

  1. Halogen-free formulation ensuring low smoke density and reduced toxic gas emission during combustion.

  2. Excellent thermal stability, maintaining performance up to 300 °C in polymer processing conditions.

  3. High phosphorus content enabling efficient char formation and flame inhibition in thermoplastics.

  4. Good compatibility with polyolefins, ABS, and engineering thermoplastics without compromising mechanical properties.

  5. UL 94 V-0 rated when formulated at appropriate loading levels in selected polymer systems.

Typical Applications Of BASF NOR116 Flame Retardant

  1. Wire and cable insulation for low-smoke, halogen-free (LSZH) applications.

  2. Electrical enclosures and housings in consumer electronics and industrial equipment.

  3. Automotive interior components requiring stringent fire safety compliance (e.g., dashboards, trim parts).

  4. Building and construction materials including conduit, junction boxes, and ducting systems.

  5. 3D printing filaments (e.g., ABS/PC blends) demanding certified flame-retardant behavior.
