Features Of Clariant Exolit AP 468 (TP) Flame Retardant

  1. Halogen-free, phosphorus-based intumescent flame retardant for enhanced environmental and regulatory compliance.

  2. Excellent thermal stability up to 300 °C, supporting high-temperature polymer processing such as injection molding and extrusion.

  3. Low water solubility and superior hydrolytic stability, ensuring consistent performance in humid environments and during long-term storage.

  4. Good dispersion in polyolefins and engineering thermoplastics, enabling uniform flame retardancy without compromising mechanical properties.

  5. UL 94 V-0 rated at low loadings (typically 20–25 wt%) in PP and PE compounds, meeting stringent fire safety standards.

Typical Applications Of Clariant Exolit AP 468 (TP) Flame Retardant

  1. Flame-retarded polypropylene (PP) for automotive interior components (e.g., dashboards, trim panels).

  2. Wire and cable jacketing compounds based on polyethylene (PE) and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE).

  3. Electrical enclosures and housings for consumer electronics and industrial equipment.

  4. Building and construction materials including conduit, ducts, and cable management systems.

  5. Appliance housings requiring RoHS-compliant, non-halogenated fire protection.
