Tosaf develops Masterbatches with flame retardancy and IR filtering in PC sheets

摘要

Two masterbatches have been developed to modify PC for applications including multi-wall and solid sheets for construction and other applications by Israeli compound, additive and masterbatch manufacturer Tosaf. FR7607PC increases flame retardancy even at low sheet gauges, while IR5980PC provides an increased IR selective effect and acts as an effective heat reduction masterbatch. Let down ratios (LDR) of 5% to 7% of FR7607PC achieve a UL94 V-0 classification at 1.6 mm, whereas the company's established multi-purpose grade meets the same specifications at 2 mm and above. For applications in the construction industry, this means that fire retardancy standards can be met with thinner and lighter PC sheets.
