Features Of Clariant Exolit OP 1312 Flame Retardant

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

  2. Excellent thermal stability suitable for processing temperatures up to 280 °C in polyolefin compounding.

  3. Low water solubility and high hydrolytic stability ensure consistent performance during storage and processing.

  4. Good dispersion in polypropylene (PP) and thermoplastic elastomers (TPE), supporting uniform flame-retardant distribution.

  5. Enables V-0 rating per UL 94 at loading levels as low as 20–25 wt% in PP-based formulations.

Typical Applications Of Clariant Exolit OP 1312 Flame Retardant

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

  2. Electrical and electronic housings requiring UL 94 V-0 classification without halogen content.

  3. Cable jacketing compounds based on thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO) or TPE blends.

  4. Household appliance parts including washing machine drums, dryer housings, and vacuum cleaner casings.

  5. Industrial plastic enclosures exposed to elevated ambient temperatures and fire-safety requirements.
