PC Retardant Masterbatch MB-M565

DR-M565 is a novel flame retardant developed for PC polycarbonate compounding products. DR-M565 does not contain any halogen, nor requires adding anti-drip agents (PTFE). Therefore, it is completely PFAS FREE. When used together with toughening agents, it can achieve V0 flame retarding level for PC at a thickness of 1.6mm, without affecting its impact strength. This provides a perfect solution for PFAS FREE FR-PC products.

1. Materials

  • PC: Covestro 2805
  • Flame retardant MB: Inovia MB-M565 (30% Inovia FR DR-M565)
  • Toughening agent: Mitsubishi S-2030

2. Processing Conditions

  • Drying: PC: 120℃, 4hrs (Moisture content < 0.02%); FR masterbatch is dried under vacuum at 80℃ for 4 hours
  • Mixing method: Use a blender to mix PC 2805/MB-M565/S2030
  • Extrusion temperature: 250~260℃
