Teijin develops new masterbatch FR for high transparency and colourability

24/05/2016 04:29 PM

Teijin Limited has developed a new masterbatch flame retardant that combines Teijin’s phosphorus flame retardant FCX-210 with a polymer for use on fibre, as well as resin.The new masterbatch flame retardant combines Teijin’s phosphorus flame retardant FCX-210 with a polymer.   

This granular type is said to enable textile manufacturers to impart superior heat resistance to a wide range of products without the need to construct a dedicated facility or to add traditional flame retardants to raw materials in advance.
 

FCX-210


Launched in 2013, FCX-210 lends high flame retardancy to a broad range of plastics without losing any of its flame resistance or changing the original characteristics of the plastic, the company reports. Additionally, only a relatively small amount is said to be necessary.
 

OEM production began in Taiwan in 2014, and FCX-210 has since been widely adopted for electronics and automobiles parts. Additionally, FCX-210 is a halogen-free product, making it safer for end-users and more environmentally friendly.
 

New masterbatch


The new masterbatch FCX-210 is said to bring those same strengths to textile manufacturing, as well as high transparency for greater colourability. Moreover, unlike traditional phosphorus flame retardants, FCX-210 is insoluble, that realizes easier draining process, according to the manufacturer.
 

Teijin has begun supplying samples to expand applications for FCX-210 into interior products, such as curtains, carpets and wallpapers, which require high heat resistance. Teijin expects revenue from FCX-210 to reach US 21.9 million by 2020.
