Features Of Clariant Exolit AP 740 F 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-processing-temperature polymers such as polyamides and PBT.

  3. Low smoke and low toxicity emissions during combustion, meeting stringent fire-safety requirements (e.g., UL 94 V-0, EN 45545-2).

  4. Good dispersion and compatibility in engineering thermoplastics without significant impact on mechanical properties.

  5. Non-migrating formulation ensures long-term performance retention and surface integrity in finished parts.

Typical Applications Of Clariant Exolit AP 740 F Flame Retardant

  1. Electrical and electronic enclosures requiring UL 94 V-0 rating at 1.6 mm thickness.

  2. Automotive interior components including connectors, junction boxes, and HVAC housings.

  3. Railway applications compliant with EN 45545-2 R22 (for plastics in passenger compartments).

  4. 3D-printed functional prototypes and end-use parts in flame-retardant PA12 and PA6 blends.

  5. Industrial automation housings exposed to elevated ambient temperatures and fire-risk environments.
