Mg for Flame Retardant Rubber and Plastic Products

Magnesium Hydroxide is a white powder with specific gravity of 2.36. , very slightly soluble in water; decomposing at 350 C. Magnesium Hydroxide is an inert filler, flame retardant and smoke suppressant for plastics,synthetic rubber, reinforced polyesters, phenolics and urethane foam.Magnesium hydroxide releases its 31% water when heated to above 325 C, Which cools the product below flash point to reduce fire occurrence. Medicinally it, in the form of a mixture (milk of magnesia), is also used as an antacid and as a osmotic laxative.
Advantage of the Magnesium Hydroxide
Initial dehydration temperature is 340°C, suitable for high temperature process of the flame – retardant rubber and plastic
The effectiveness of flame – retardant and smoke suppressant is better than Aluminum Hydroxide
Magnesium Hydroxide also has strong reinforcement due to high fineness & the surface is coated specially
Usage of the Magnesium Hydroxide
Widely used for flame - retardant rubber and plastic products that must be lower halogen, non-halogen, low-smoking. Also cab be used in thermoplastic and elastomers such as EVA, EPDM, PVC, PE, PP resins etc.
