PET flame retardants

PET Fiber Flame Retardant masterbatch XW-M150

XW-M150 is a novel flame retardant masterbatch for PET fibers based on ionic liquids. The concentration of FR is 10%. The FR exhibits excellent compatibility with PET polymers without compromising smoothness of the fiber spinning. At a dosage level of 0.5%, the limited oxygen index (LOI) increases to over 30%. And the flame doesn’t generate dripping.

Materials

PET：YuanFang CH610-2 (Viscosity: 1.0 dL/g)
Flame retardant masterbatch：Inovia XW-M150

Processing

Drying: 140℃ for 6-8 hours;
Pre-treatment: Add 5 to 15% of XW-M150 (with a flame retardant content of 10%) to the base material and mix evenly before spinning.

The fiber was spanned at a third-party institute. Before spinning, the flame-retardant masterbatch was evenly mixed with the resin material. The extrusion temperature of the flame-retardant fiber was 5~15 ℃ lower than that of the blank resin material.
