Features Of PhireGuard BDP Flame Retardant

  1. High-efficiency brominated diphenyl ether (BDP) chemistry delivering excellent flame retardancy in polycarbonate and PC/ABS blends.

  2. Low volatility and superior thermal stability up to 300°C, ensuring minimal loss during high-temperature processing.

  3. Excellent compatibility with engineering thermoplastics, maintaining mechanical properties such as impact strength and ductility.

  4. Halogen-free alternative performance benchmark — meets UL 94 V-0 at low loading levels (typically 8–10 wt% in PC).

  5. Consistent batch-to-batch purity and low ionic impurities, supporting stringent electronics and automotive requirements.

Typical Applications Of PhireGuard BDP Flame Retardant

  1. Electrical enclosures and housings for consumer electronics and industrial control units.

  2. Automotive interior components including center consoles, trim panels, and dashboard substrates.

  3. LED lighting fixtures and lens assemblies requiring UL 94 V-0 compliance and optical clarity retention.

  4. Medical device housings where flame resistance, biocompatibility support, and processability are critical.

  5. Power supply units and connector housings in telecom infrastructure equipment.
